I'll admit I am sucker for wood grips. I'm not sure about performance advantages but they look sooo much better. I've got to get some for my 92fs. In the example above I see one nice gun and one beauty of a firearm that should be put under glass and shown off. I recently bought a 10/22 with some great wood on it. Haven't shot it yet, it might be a dog, but with the wood it will always be nice to look at.

@enfield -- What steps do you go thorough for cleaning and preserving you grips? I was thinking about taking the wood off when I go to the range so when I clean I wouldn't get any chemical on them. I read somewhere about Lemon oil or something but have not seen anything except Pledge or Murphy's Oil.

thanks

I have some custom cocobolo grips that were made by "Esmeralda" and she recommends using Howard's Feed and Wax on them. I couldn't find it at Lowes or Home Depot, but I did find some on eBay.

I'll be posting some pics of my EMP grips (shown in my avatar) on here soon.

BladeZealot - those are really nice! What kind of wood is that? I make wood grips for my 1911s, and would love to find something like that to work with..

[JPS]

This is a set of 'wormy' hard maple grips I made for a PT1911 - they look better now after a couple more coats of lacquer.

That is Jarrah Burl from Australia.

I wish that someone would do 642 snubby grips in the VZ alien textures/materials. That would be outlandishly sweet.

My PPK/S had very sharp edges on the grip portion of the frame. I made these Bocote grips that extends to the edges to smooth it.

Grip that I made for my V-16 Longslide .45 Super with 1911 Barber dimes set in them.

Best looking gun and grips posted so far!

[StPatrick]

Well, I can't show exotic woods, but I can show some serious positive traction - these are the aluminum grips Sig puts on the Elite-series pistols, and with the summer heat and humidity, they're the only ones I can hang onto while sweating like a filthy beast. Nice and slim, very grabby, not so pretty. Sorry for the crappy phone pics, but you get the idea.

These are cocobolo with a Celtic cross and Celtic checkering custom made by "Esmeralda."

PackinMama, Esmeralda makes some beautiful grips. They are kinda on the "pricey" side...but, then you get what you pay for, right; which is high quality artwork with highly figured wood, from her shop. She's one of the best in the industry, bar none.

They look beautiful on your EMP....good choice, btw.
