:Using rubber bands was the predecessor to Pachmayer and Houge rubber grips as well. I believe that Pachmayer introduced the Presentation grip in the late sixties. Probably as a response to those folks who were using rubber bands and inntertubes to help give them a better grip and help with recoil control. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 23:34, 27 February 2012 (CST) | |||

Possible but Selleck has large hands and that in conjunction with the forced perspective that cameras can impart it's hard to say.

The OP and I caught nearly identical screen shots. Adjusting the brightness and contrast shows the trigger guard profile which is more oval on the DS than the OP. Selleck likes .45's; he should have a New Service Fitz! All in the spirit... Thanks. --[[User:Sg688|Sg688]] 21:48, 26 March 2012 (CDT) | |||

well regardless of whether it's a DS or an OP I wouldn't be surprised to learn that it is personally owned by Selleck. it's my understanding that he has a very respectable collection of classic firearms. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 23:10, 26 March 2012 (CDT) | |||
