This is only my second post but I just got a Dan Wesson .357 15-2. I checked out the EWK site on the right and the optics are sold out. Are there any others that are good that would fit the 15-2.
Also I am looking for a Hogue-like grip. The Hogues apparently dont have the correct screw length. Something really comfortable and great for recoil.
Thanks in advance!
p.s. I have given up for now on finding the snub nose barrel and small grips for concealed carry.

Those grips come up on ebay all the time, keep watching. Same goes for the 2.5" barrels. I think there are some of each listed now. As for grips, I have several small frame Dan's with Hogue grips, work fine, just use the shorter grip screw and don't over tighten. Pachmyr grippers are my favorite for the small frame, but they are harder to find and more expensive. Presentation grips are much more common, but less attractive IMHO. They look like a black rubber version of the DW wood grips.
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

Thank you Scorpio for the help. Does the Small Frame Hogue grips come with the shorter grip screw? I'll look for Pachmyr too.
Still haven't decided if I want optic sights.

The fiber optic front sight from EWK is great. When you pull it up to the sight picture just pops. If you are looking or a small grip take alook at the one I got from LB. Link is over there----------------->

if you find one...what's your plan?

I don't think they come with the screw, but you can go to a hardware store and find a screw that will work, or pick one up on ebay/gunbroker etc. Numerich may also have them.

Thanks again Scorpio.
Brucertx - EWK is sold out at the moment but I will wait for them since they are so highly recommended 
Nice grips btw

Dan Wesson did have some orange fiber optic sights. I have one, but the EWK sights are much better. I have since changed two of my 15-2s to the EWK. It is worth the wait if you are not in a hurry.

0.50" Allen wrench worked on mine. Just got the sight and a 6" EH barrel and I'm looking forward to trying the new additions. Had the 2" stubby on for the last few weeks to take a personal defense class. Lone wheel gun and a lefty to boot.
