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

********

ONE-PIECE VS. TWO-PIECE STYLE GRIPS:

A Choice for Every
User! 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.  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.
 
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 is
sent unmounted to ensure optimum fit with your revolver, with simple, quick
installation which takes about one minute or so per grip.  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.  They include
a free C
onversion kit, allowing
their use on revolvers that are currently using 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.

WHAT THESE WILL FIT (Please read this through in its
entirety)
:

 

These grips WILL FIT the Colt 1851 Navy 2nd Generation revolvers ONLY.  These will fit BOTH the “C” and the “F” series 2nd
Generation revolvers (so distinguishing between the two is not important when
purchasing our grips).  The 2nd
Generation revolvers were produced beginning in 1971 until production ceased in
1982.  However, Special and Limited
editions of the 2nd Generation revolvers continued to be issued from
the Colt Custom Shop however until the mid 1990s. 

 

Please note that these grips WILL NOT FIT the 1st Generation
(Original 19th Century production), OR the 20TH Century 3rd Generation (“Signature Series”) ’51
Navy models.  If you have one of these models, please contact us for
custom fitting options.

Note: the 2nd Generation Colt ’51 Navys
can be easily distinguished from the 3rd Generation Navys by
examining the backstrap.  The 3rd
Gen. revolvers have Sam Colt’s signature engraved into the backstrap.  The 2nd Generation revolvers do
not have this engraving, but are left smooth.

Also, please note that these will NOT fit any revolvers of any
different maker, including the Uberti, Pietta, or any other Italian or
non-Italian clones.  If you have one of these, please see our store
categories for the proper grips, or drop us an email and we will be happy to
help.

Arizona Custom Grips



About Magna-Tusk™ Ivory
and Stag Grips:

 Magna-Tusk™ Ivory and Stag grips, a
product of Arizona Custom Grips, are manufactured out of our
high-grade, high density ivory material designed exclusively as a premium,
high-strength grip material.  Vastly
superior to standard bonded ivory or stag found on most factory and other
aftermarket grips, Magna-Tusk™ is capable of withstanding the heaviest recoil
and impact, and is the toughest alternative grip material available today,
while still retaining the pristine look of real ivory or stag.  It is
rock-solid, stable, and water, chemical, and oil resistant.  It is
flame and heat resistant, and is entirely void-free, with over 10x the
strength, durability, and impact resistance of alternative materials.  Unlike
with real ivory or stag, 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 filled with premium natural compounds to
produce outstanding aesthetic properties and mechanical
performance.  When aged with our natural aging process, it takes on
the equivalent of a 100-year-old patina, with subtle grain details which many
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.
