Aftermarket wood grips

Recommended Posts

Hey all. So, I picked up a GP100 off the marketplace recently. The stock rubber hogue grips are good, they feel nice and help with the recoil and all, but the finger groove placement is a little weird for me. I'd like to get something similar to the old 60s/70s coke grips that were on S&W's revolvers. Been looking at a few places like Hogue and Eagle grips (the Eagle heritage grips are about perfect aesthetically, but from what I see they only make those for S&W revolvers). Just wondering if anyone here has any suggestions. Thanks!

The finger groves on the stock rubber houges are a problem for alot of people, including myself.

Some people will grind the grooves out smooth with a dremel or the like.

 

If you want to pick up a set of wooden, I personal perfer the fingerless big butt grips, getgrip.com has alot of options to check out

Thanks guys. I've actually been looking at hogue's selection of wood grips and they seem to have a lot of great choices without the finger grooves. Now I only have to worry about what sort of wood to pick. I do like the look of deep rosewood on a blued gun. :D

      I bought these colt grips online as a colt product, came in colt package. For some reason the horse doesn't look perfect to me, is there a way to tell if the grips are actual colt, does it even matter? https://photos.app.goo.gl/HxR12vfrfrUJ2ur99

      So, I've been contemplating delving into another one of the stereotypical manly hobbies...wood working. And not the kind done in front of the computer. 
       
      Bad jokes aside, I was wondering if anyone else was involved in this because I'm looking for a place in Northern Jersey (Bergen County area) that sells quality tools. I may not need a Lie- Nielsen or Veritas but it would be nice to find a place that sells them so I know what quality looks and feels like. 
       
      Any leads would be greatly appreciated.

      Hey guys, wondering if anybody who has a set of Altamont grips could chime in. I've been looking to purchase a set of the old style lett grips for my GP100, and I noticed that Altamont makes their own set. Is their set identical to the factory Lett grips? If I were to get a set of grip inserts that were made for the factory Lett grips, would they fit in the Altamont grips? Thanks.

    • Have you done any research into the cost and licensing requirements to run a repeater? We own some mountainous acreage in a very rural part of Virginia RIdge and Valley country that serves as vacation place and potential SHTF retreat. We get mediocre cell phone coverage (US Cellular only) and nothing else. I have thought of putting an antenna tower up the hill a ways (we own nearly to the top of the ridge. I wouldn't do it just for Ham or GMRS radio, but if I could get expanded cell coverage, and/or satellite internet (Dish or Starlink) as well, from one tower, I might go for it. ==== sorry, didn't  intend to hijack the thread ====
    • The biggest problem with this announcement is that the FBI has proven itself to be completely untrustworthy, but it is the agency charged with keeping the public informed about such developments. So, this is something that Wray and the FBI want us to believe, because they are convinced that is in their best interests that we do so. But how much objective truth is there to it? Are Biden's enviro-Nazi puppeteers planning to sabotage the internet and what is left of our petrochemical production capability and somehow false flag attribute that attack to the Chinese? Unlikely, but it's terrible and damning that I even need to seriously consider that possibility. It's a dilemma. Reminds me of an old Star Trek TV episode where Kirk short-circuits some robotic adversary by telling it, "I always lie. Listen very carefully. I am lying to you..." Personally, I'll wait until I see some corroboration of this from something that I regard as a trusted source (and those are few and far between these days) before I buy it.
