I don't know, but I have the same one. I don't like it much, I bought a bunch of DW parts years ago (My greatest score ever, a huge box of stuff for $50), and there were two rubber grips in there, one like the picture and (I think) a Houge, which I like a lot better.

I beleive the actual manufacturer of the grip was Uncle Mike's.  It was made for the Dan Wesson clone made by Mitchell Arms in the 1995-1996 time frame.  They were made for their Titan II fixed sight model revolver.  This revolver came with a 4" barrel and these grips.  For a picture see the following forum entry as it has a copy of the pictures from the original catalog showing this grip.      https://www.danwessonforum.com/forum/revolvers/mitchell-arms-titan/

Thanks for that information. I bought 3 of these grips from CDNN investments years ago. They came in a ziplock bag and the label is marked:      DANRUBBER

                                                                   DAN WESSON 357 COMPACT

                                                                   FACTORY SQ. HOLE GRIP

                                                                   GRIP    DAN

I like them for concealed carry because they are smaller. They are two piece grips that have a round bushing that screws into the screw hole at the bottom of the grip frame. The two halves fit together around the bushing and a grp screw holds them together. I have not seen them for sale anywhere since I purchased them. Good for ccw but not for target.

I would like to get hold of one to try for CCW.  Looks like it would be great for concealment.  If anyone has one they would like to part with please send me a PM.

IF any one has any extras I would like to have few for the Mitchell, HS's and lil' dan (though different cant on these)!  Look over at DWA_midwest in the collections for one that is apart.

 

True they were on the Mitchell's Titan 11 in SS and Blue!

I too have seen these grips around, and have been looking to pick one up for my 715-FB. If anybody has one they'd like to part with, please shoot me a PM.
