Locating revolver grips in Fort Worth area

Thought I would see if any of you know a shop where I could find some new grips for a recently purchased 638. The rubber ones that came on it were worn and kinda gooey. I found some Hogue bantams at Cabelas but they only had them in zombie green and I'm not too sure how much longer I can take the greenness. If any of you all know of a place to find some grips, I'd appreciate the info.

Thanks,
Surfer

Grips for K-frame revolvers are fairly common stock at gun shops. Many will carry Hogue or Pachmeyer griops for them.

I'm thinking I'd like a set of ivory or bone (synthetic ivory). Was wanting to find something in a shop that I could pay for in cash. I've found lots of options online, however, I think that when the wife sees the charge on our statement I'd be in trouble. I suppose that there is just not too many stores which stock custom grips.
