I found a nice small frame DW grip recently and wondering if it was early, middle or late production. It's not nearly as flared at the bottom as the Target grips but seems slightly longer and definitely 
narrower. I like the way it feels and I don't think it's ever been on a gun before as the seller stated.

I have one that is very similar. I would say middle vintage. Earlier ones had DWA medallions.

By the mid 80s the grips slimmed down and became smoother. Then in 91, Palmer grips debuted gold plastic medallions.

Yup, mid-to-late 80's. Great looking example, BTW.
