I'd like to know if there are any makers of custom grips for the
Ruger Blackhawk/Super Blackhawk SA revolvers. I have a Super Blackhawk
in .44 mag with the factory 'dragoon' style grips. This weekend I
shot some pretty hot (Winchester super-X) loads and now I think
that my right second knuckle is going to fall off.

Actually, it's the fault of the trigger guard (squared off). But I think that
if I can get a better set of grips (ones that aren't so 'skinny') my hand
won't slide up so far and get the %$#^&$%@!! knocked out of it.

I know. Shoot more mild loads you say. But I *like* to shoot hot loads!

Anyway, any tips appreciated. I need my hands for typing.
