BIRDSHEAD and/or 1873 BIRDSHEAD
REVOLVERS

~ Exclusive ~

  MAGNA-TUSK™  iVORY

Brand New!!

Note: Our grips feature the historically correct Colt two-piece
design (with a screw), which is the original configuration as developed by Colt
on their Lightning and Thunderer revolvers.

ALL OF OUR TWO-PIECE GRIPS WILL WORK ON ONE-PIECE GRIP FRAMES

We include, free of
charge, a conversion kit which allows these two-piece grips to mount onto a
one-piece style grip frame (without a grip pin in the frame).  Our
conversion kit replaces the need for a grip pin and is actually a stronger
design, and locks the grips tightly against the frame, allowing no
movement.  This gives you the advantage of the ease of maintenance of
two-piece grips, while preserving the integrity of your revolver in original
factory condition.  Easy installation instructions, along with grip
screw included.  6.3.20

WHAT THESE WILL FIT

Brand New, unused grips
for the PIETTA BIRDSHEAD, 1873 BIRDSHEAD, OR similar revolvers,
MADE BY PIETTA, and marketed
in the U.S. by importers such as Taylors & Co.

Please note that these WILL NOT FIT Birdshead revolvers
made by any other manufacturer, such as Uberti, Ruger, etc.

This auction is for the
revolvers which have the SMOOTH
curved Birdshead-style backstrap, and will NOT
fit the somewhat similar Pietta Thunderball style, which has a “humped”-curved
backstrap.  Please take a close look at the pictures to note the
difference.  If you have a Thunderball
(humped-curve) style grip, please visit our store or check our other auctions
to find the correct grip.  Or you can also click “Pietta” under our
Store Categories section at the left of this page.  Feel free to
email if you have any questions.

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.
