THIS AUCTION IS FOR OUR
ONE-PIECE (NO SCREWHOLE) STYLE GRIPS.  SEE BELOW.

********

ONE-PIECE VS. TWO-PIECE STYLE GRIPS:

Note: Two-Piece style
grips incorporate a visible screw and screwhole, allowing easy and quick
removal for cleaning or maintenance of your revolver.  One-Piece style grips do not use a screw but
instead use an internal spacer.  We sell
both types.  Both styles are traditional
and historical designs and both were originally used on early Colts, so it is a
matter of personal preference.  Both
styles of our grips will interchange and work on either style of grip frame, no
matter how your revolver is currently set up.  See below.

One-Piece style grips (i.e., grips
which do not have a visible screwhole in the grips) incorporate a user
installed spacer (included with the grips) between the grip panels, as seen on
many of the early Colts.  The spacer
supplied with your grips is sent unmounted to ensure optimum fit with your
revolver, with simple, quick installation which takes about one minute or so
per panel.  Fully illustrated
instructions are included.  This results
in a rock-tight fit, without the need of a screw.  Preferred by many collectors for their clean
lines and traditional look. One-Piece style grips are removed by removing the
three backstrap screws, and pulling the grip and backstrap backwards.  Reinstallation is in reverse order. 

Alternatively, our Two-Piece style
grips (i.e., grips with a visible screw and screwhole) offer the superior
convenience of quick grip removal.  Our
grips include a free Conversion Kit, allowing
their use on revolvers that are currently set up for One-Piece style grips that
do not have a grip pin.  The Conversion Kit
replaces the need for a grip pin and is actually a stronger design, and allows
the grips to lock up tight on the frame, allowing no movement.  This
requires no modification to your revolver and gives you the advantage of the
ease of maintenance of Two-Piece grips, while preserving the integrity of your
revolver in original factory condition. Two-Piece style grips were
also used on many of the early Colts, and are a traditional and iconic
historical design, offering a distinctive look and convenience preferred by
many collectors.

Fully illustrated, detailed instructions
are included with each set of grips.  06302300

 A
note on the Italian-produced Revolvers:

The
Italian firms, located in Northern Italy, have been making SAA style revolvers
now for well over a half century, and have made numerous makes and models and
grip frame profiles with varying configurations over the years.  We have an in-depth knowledge of the differing
grip configurations, have a large library of gripframe variations from the
various makers both old and new, and have vast experience making grips for
Uberti, Pietta, as well as the other Italian gunmaking firms.   Our experienced makers go to great lengths
to ensure an exacting fit, including utilizing modern precision CNC production
techniques, as well as incorporating old-time hand tuning and hand checking the
fit of every grip on our reference frames prior to leaving our factory.  We have a long list of many satisfied
customers in the shooting industry who have purchased grips to use in a wide
variety of applications, and we can safely and confidently guarantee proper fit
and finish to your complete satisfaction.

For an additional
charge, custom fitting is an option.  Please contact us for further
details if you are interested in custom fitting.

Arizona Custom Grips

About our exclusive Magna-Tusk™ “Hi-Grade”
Ivory Grips:

 Our Ivory grips, an exclusive of Arizona Custom Grips,
are made out of a premium high-grade, ultra-high density ivory material (Magna-Tusk™), designed from the ground
up as a premium grip material to greatly improve on the inherent fragility and
weakness of the cheaper Bonded Ivory used on just about all factory and regular
aftermarket ivory grips today.  Standard
Bonded Ivory is brittle, and tends to weaken and develop stress fractures over
time with repeated use, firing, and handling. 
Magna-Tusk™ is capable of withstanding the heaviest recoil and impact,
and is the toughest alternative Ivory grip material available today, while
still retaining the pristine look of real ivory.  These grips are not
cast or made out of an inferior, lightweight material, but are heavy and dense,
carefully milled out of a solid block, one at a time.  Magna-Tusk is completely rock-solid, stable,
and water, chemical, and oil resistant.  It is flame and heat resistant,
will not melt like Urethane or plastic, and is entirely void-free, with over
10x the strength, durability, and impact resistance of alternative
materials.  Unlike with real ivory, there is no routine care and
maintenance involved, with no danger of it drying out and cracking if not
maintained properly or if left in the heat.  It is produced with outstanding
aesthetic properties and mechanical performance.  When aged with our
exclusive aging process, it takes on the equivalent of a 100-year-old patina,
with subtle grain details which most experts cannot tell apart from the real
thing.  In addition, the material has a fine grain structure, which
holds intricate detail for carvings, artistic relief work, etc., found on many
historic grips. 

About Our Aging Process:

We
go to great efforts to ensure that our Aged Ivory not only looks similar to real aged ivory, but in fact looks
identical to the real thing.  Our Magna-Tusk blanks will produce an aged
Ivory grip unlike any other material made today.  Through our slow aging process, these grips become
beautifully mottled, variegated, and weathered just like old, antique Ivory, and incorporate other authentic
details found on original old Ivory as seen on many of the revolvers which
belonged to gunfighters and lawmen of the Old West.  As with real aged Ivory, no two are exactly the
same.  Our process produces an authentic
appearance and genuine patina which extends deep into the surface.  Not
only does this give it the appearance of authenticity and depth, but this
surface will not chip, crack, or peel like a superficially applied
coating.  With Magna-Tusk aged grips, most experts
cannot tell them apart from a decades-old or even a centuries-old original.  While the quality difference is somewhat
noticeable in the photos, the difference is even more apparent when seen and
handled in person.  Many of our repeat
sales are made by the very customers we sell to, who take their grips to the
range or club, where our grips are immediately seen and noticed by others.  We are also capable of producing them with a
“clean” aged look if required (i.e., without the mottling, etc.), which is a
simpler process, although most would agree that they do not look quite as
authentic as our regular aged grips.  If
you are interested in ordering grips for a Brace of pistols, please order both
sets together, so we can ensure a good matchup. 

Dense, heavy, and solid, Magna-Tusk grips are in a class all their
own. With our exclusive aging process, these grips
are outstanding right out of the box, and will continue to improve over
time.  The more these grips are handled
and used, the better they look!
