Bought a 3" Model 36 Smiff with a small issue

Now I think I can polish the electro penciling out and spot blue the front strap, but another part of me wants to just cover the wound with a Tyler T-grip and either add new grips or refinish the existing grips. In any case, I think I did okay price-wise. I've always wanted a 3" J-frame, but never found one at the right price. This one is sort of like our rescue dog and cats, diamonds in the rough.
Otony, who thinks Mama will appreciate the longer barrel and square butt.
