● Ruger New Vaquero

Note: These will fit the New Vaqueros which have a serial number with a three-digit prefix (e.g., 512-XXXXX).  If your Vaquero has a two-digit serial number prefix (e.g., 55-XXXXX), you have an “Old” Vaquero and these grips will NOT fit.  Also, please note that these will NOT fit the .44 Magnum Caliber New Vaquero.  Please contact us for the correct grip.

● “Flattop” Blackhawks

Note: If your Blackhawk revolver has a “Flattop” top strap, these grips will fit.  This includes the 50^th Anniversary Ruger Blackhawks, and many of the 44 Special Blackhawks.  Please see the photo above to make sure you have a “Flattop” top strap and not a “Standard” top strap.  Please also note that if your Blackhawk was made prior to 1963, you will require special grips, so please contact us for availability, or send us your serial number if you are unsure.

Note: these will NOT fit the “Original” Vaquero (with the two-digit serial number prefix), the Ruger Blackhawks (unless you have a “Flattop” topstrap as noted above), the Single Six, Single Seven, Single Nine, and Single Tens, the Old Army, the Wrangler, any of the Super Blackhawks, or if your gripframe is the Birdshead or Bisley style.  If you have any of these, or are unsure, please contact us for the proper grips.  We are always happy to help.

Handcrafted on an individual Custom basis out of Magna-Tusk™, our solid, dense proprietary substrate which is formulated out of natural materials for an authentic look and feel, and which yields a finished product which is the ultimate rendition of the classic stag grips of the golden era of Westerns.   Better materials and our proprietary pigmenting process yields a finished product better than the originals.  These grips are milled from a solid slab and are not cast.  This avoids the inclusions, air pockets, and most importantly the cheap "cast plastic" look found in the urethane and other imitation materials commonly available.  Like natural grips, with use and handling over time they will form an authentic patina and will only improve with age.  They look better, age better, and perform better.  And perhaps best of all, these grips are made entirely in the U.S.A.!

Shown in an vintage, pre-patent, early original 1950's era Arvo Ojala holster -- the same rig used by Matt Dillon in Gunsmoke, handmade by Ojala about the same time he made the one for James Arness.  Ojala was known as the "trainer to the stars" and trained Arness and many others in the use of the gun and fast draw skills.  Nobody was ever known to be faster in his day.  He is the man seen in the opening scenes of every Gunsmoke episode drawing against Dillon. 

Gun prop and holster not included -- only the grips are for sale. Please note that the grips shown are a stock photo used for illustration purposes only.  Your grips will be individually hand cut and appear similar to these.

The "B-Western":

These "B-Western" Style Custom grips are hand-carved one-at-a-time in recognition of one of America's most outstanding and lasting cultural achievements of the 20th century -- the "B-Western." Styled after the grips seen on the revolvers of classic Hollywood Westerns of the 1930's to the 1960's (the "golden era of Hollywood Westerns"), these grips were featured in numerous Western productions both on Television and on the Silver Screen. Gunsmoke, Bonanza, The Rifleman, Rawhide, The Virginian, and many others too numerous to mention, all took America back to a simpler time and place. Times have changed, but the lessons and values of that unforgettable period still have a place in the hearts of millions of Americans and many other Western fans throughout the world who appreciate the enduring contribution to our culture and society made by the unique and colorful characters of the Old West.

Arizona Custom Stag™ Grips:

These grips are completely unique, custom, and one-of-a-kind. Each is hand cut, and no two are the same.  You will not find another set like them on any gun at any Western event, guaranteed! Hand made in painstaking, exacting detail to authentic feel and dimensions. We strive for museum quality with every pair. 

Arizona Custom Stag™  looks, feels, and ages like the genuine product, with durability far exceeding Ivory (Ivory is a relatively fragile material, which often cracks under stress and age).  Magna-Tusk™, our Premier Grade product used in these grips, is filled with natural materials, and works and polishes as well as looks like the real thing. It takes carving with superior detail and definition, and accurately captures that authentic, weathered, deep, dark chocolate brown/black color in the bark pattern sought after by stag collectors. With age, it develops a soft, mellow patina which makes it indistinguishable from the more expensive and fragile product.

These grips are used in professional applications where only the best will do.  We have supplied these grips to Hollywood and other locations that demand only the best in durability, design, and authenticity.  We cut no corners, and make every grip with the intention of it being a grip which will last a lifetime.  A fine revolver deserves a fine grip.  If you have been looking for the ultimate B-Western grip, you won't be disappointed!!

The durability and excellent aging characteristics of these grips are enhanced by our exclusive and permanent bonded pigment application process which, once cured, won't chip, crack, or peel like superficially applied paint products found on less expensive grips.  Accept no substitutes.  Arizona Custom Stag™ adds a touch of class and realism which is completely lost by using lesser quality "cast plastic" imitations available elsewhere.

Grip screws included with all grips.  As with all Single Action grips, minor fitting may be, but is not usually, required due to small variations in grip frames.  Full instructions included with all grips.

The distinctive qualities and authentic presentation of Arizona Custom Stag™  offers an authentic look, heft and feel which invoke the aura and spirit of the Old West.  Guaranteed to please even the most discriminating collector and Western memorabilia aficionado. Full money back, less shipping, if not fully satisfied! If returning, please note that the product must be returned in original, unaltered condition.

Remember, above all: Ride Hard, Shoot Straight, and Speak the Truth! Happy Trails!!
