Pistol grips?

dinkydow · 03-17-2021, 06:21 PM

Are the grips on a SAA similar to a those on a 1872 open top Navy?

I don't much care for the furnished grips on my Ubirti made Navy. I replaced the funky grips on my Army already. Removed the one piece wooden grips and installed some heavy duty fake Ivory, two piece pimp grips. Piece of cake.

I was wondering where I've seen "The Knight" at.

Or you could jazz it up with some gold bling and make it a country nig rig.

Will SAA grips fit my open top Navy? The..."vanilla"...OEM grips....just don't make my weiner wiggle. JeZus...paying more for custom grips than I paid for the popgun....is not gonna happen. Nice....but...damn...$$$$$.
I am going to sit down with my ..gat...and figure out how to remove the originals.

The Army model one piece grips...were ...clever. I will keep them as OEM parts are not cheap to buy.

If I got the right model, it looks like Taylors has the rough grips available for $14.75 and $15.00.

You could shape and finish them to your liking. I did that on one of my SAA that came with grips I didn't like.

Already ordered some "aged ivory" grips from Arizona. They should be here any day.

Cimmeron offers some movie gun look-alikes for sale....when the have them in stock.

I ordered the ...Magna Tusk...with no medallion and with the checkering. They have nice grips that fit perfectly. I thought about the ivory ones like I installed on my 1872 open-top Army...

But.....

A little variety never hurt a cowboy gun.
