Thank you for the input Keith regarding straight grips. The trigger guard may be original, but it is rough, so I have my doubts about that too. I just removed the hammers and was able to disassemble the gun, and everything looks fine. The wood is solid with no cracks. All my guns have straight grips, so I guess I have to decide if it's worth going to all this effort to end up with a gun that isn't my preference, or do I throw originality out the window and make it how I would want it. I have to think that Uncle Dan might not have a problem with that were he here. Will have to chew on that a bit...
