I am only making grips for Colts SAA's, cap and balls and their clones. No more Ruger (or ANY two piece) grips. Sorry. Now, the X-tra Fancy Walnut comes from (Fred) Wenig's Custom Gunstocks down in Missouri. Right purty stuff! All grips are hand rubbed with tung oil finish. I can varnish them if you like for an additional $25. Please specify. Even though Varnish is also authentic, I personally recommend, and most customers request tung oil if the gun will se a lot of "action". Varnish is a tad fragile. Tung oil can be "refreshed" with a quick wipe of boiled linseed oil if it ever starts to look "grungy".

This is the gun you've seen in several of Mike's books, Roswood on an old S&W. (These are no longer available, sorry!)
I'm just showing you these Sheep Horn grips I made so you can see what I "can do". DON'T EVEN ASK!!! I don't work with dead animal parts anymore (i.e.; Ivory, Horn, Bone). Not that I mind dead animals, they taste great and are fun to hunt! But it absolutely STINKS to work with, and is a very time consuming pain! Sorry!

Please remember, every piece of wood looks different. These are just representative samples. Your grips will probably be a different shade, or have a different pattern, etc. Please try not to ask me to match a particular gun shown here. If you want to come by my shop you are more than welcome to pick a hunk of wood out yourself! All grips are made from a single block of wood, cut in half. The two panels will match as much as mother nature will allow. On pairs of guns, I'll do my best to match them exactly, from the same "hunk" of wood, usually with pretty good success.
