I was winning bidder on GunBroker recently, and got this .45 Colt New Frontier:

Grips are from a Single Action Army. I suspect the previous owner had one piece grip as the grip locating pin was missing. But a trip to the hardware store and twenty-three cents bought the correct pin. And just so happened to have correct grips for it:

Colt New Frontier with SAA grips=Sweet.

Colt New Frontier with original wood grips=Sweetness!!!

Great addition to the family!
 
You're making me real jealous with all those New Frontiers you have. How many do you have, anyway?

This one makes number six. Here is a group photo made earlier:

Top two on left are .44 Special, remainder are .45 Colt. And the 4 3/4" .45 now sports these grips:

Thank y'all for your kind comments.

Nice acquisition! Congrat's. A long barreled NF was my introduction to LR handgunning MANY moons ago.
Beautiful group photo too.

Great collection! Would love to have one in .44 Special to go with my Ruger Blackhawk Flattop. The new grips on the 4 3/4" .45 Colt look fantastic! Thanks for sharing.
