Title: 357 grips
Post by: ceejay on November 02, 2011, 09:40:01 PM
Have an older one with the tan plastic grips. Right one screws on and the left one spring-clamps on the CO2 cart, leaving the tube screw holder exposed.
Short of buying a "new" 357 . . . . any hints on where/how to get or buy grips that will cover that dang bolt like the recent model?

I just bought a new set of grips for my 357 from Crosman and they were something like $2.08 each.

Not looking for exact replacement grips - the old type I have leaves the cylinder screw exposed when assembled, and I think
the new ones mount differently since they are both removable. The right grip on mine is screwed to the frame. Finding a fit
would save me a LOT of whittlin' to make a new pair.  ;)

The new style grips cover the screw.

and fit the old frame(s) ? Seems the right side grip on the new model is not held with a screw as mine is.

From looking at the EVP drawing, from Crosman.com site, the frames have different part numbers and are different looking.
I don't think the newer grips will fit.
