    Wood Pistol Grip
    « on: October 19, 2008 - 09:37:47 AM »
    Not a technical question, but does someone know a good vendor that sells nice real wood pistol grip handles?  Not  unusual wood or anything, just quality walnut (or whatever is the standard wood).  Thanks.

    I really like the one on my car...its one of the nicer ones I seen in my opinion. I bought the Car from Hemi71 so he may chime in and let you know where he bought it.    :2thumbs:

     Just my opinion but I like the finer wood grain, like an old pistol grip. Curious why the gunslinger preferrs not to use a finish on the wood? It would seem the grip darkens with use. Oiled finish leaves residue so that's not really an option either IMO. :dunno:

      Good question.   :grinyes:

    I bought my wooden handle from them last year at Carlisle. It was nice I could actually pick which grain I liked best out of all they had. The explanation for not finishing them was the oil from your hands will eventually make it shine.   :dunno:
