oNE-PIECE
(nO SCREWHOLE) STYLE
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 Conversion 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. 01042300

WHAT THESE WILL FIT
(Please
read this entire section carefully):
These WILL FIT any of the PIETTA Single Action Army style revolvers, with the standard sized SAA “plowhandle”
grip frame. [Note: please see the notes below regarding
brass gripframes if that is what you have, and also the non-standard, taller
sized 1860 Army sized gripframes].
This includes any of the following (all of which are made by Pietta
and imported by Cimarron, E.M.F., Taylor’s & Co., etc.):
• Cimarron Frontier or Stainless Frontier, Pistolero, or El Malo (NOT
the El Malo 2);
• Davidson’s Exclusive 1873s (sometimes also
marked “Pietta 1873 Gunfighter”, “Pietta
1873 Rio” or “Del Rio Deluxe”, “Pietta 1873 Centennial”, “Pietta El Diablo”, etc.);
• E.M.F. Great
Western II (available in numerous variations including the Blank Firing, Buntline, Californian, Dlx Californian, Dlx Grande Californian, Cattlebrand,
Dlx Stainless Steel, Express Agent (“Standard” gripframe ONLY), Frontier, Gambler’s
Royale, General Patton, Gunfighter, Liberty, Midnight Special, Paladin, Pony
Express (“Standard” gripframe ONLY), Posse, “R” Model, Sheriff, The Last Stand,
The Shootist, U.S. Marshal, and U.S. Grant).
-- Please note that these will NOT fit the “Alchimista” models – see
below.
• E.M.F. Hartford,
Dakota II, or Dakota III;
• Taylor’s & Co. Outlaw Legacy (NOT the Remington Outlaw), Single Action Stag, Cattle Brand Engraved, or other Engraved Pietta Revolvers such as Teddy Roosevelt, Patton, Cattlebrand, etc.;
• Any of Pietta’s engraved SAA style revolvers being sold under various names
not mentioned above, such as the Teddy
Roosevelt Frontier, George S. Patton Frontier, Cimarron Buffalo Bill Cody, Cody
Wild West Frontier, Bat Masterson Frontier, Outlaw Legacy, Bill Tilghman
Cattleman, etc.
• Traditions Single Action Frontier or Rawhide revolvers. (Note: if your Rawhide revolver is the .22 cal. Rawhide Ranchhand, please send
us an immediate followup email after your order and let us know. These require extra milling cutouts to mount
properly to your frame.)
• Century Arms 1873 Millenium
Note: If you do
not see your pistol listed, please drop us an email with your model name and we
will verify your revolver.
IMPORTANT: Please note that these grips will only fit Pietta revolvers having the standard
sized SAA style gripframe (somewhere around 3-1/16” to 3-1/8” tall
depending on how you hold your ruler, tape, or caliper). These WILL NOT fit Pietta gripframes
that are around 3-1/2” tall (such as EMF’s Alchimista,
or Cimarron’s Bad Boy or El Malo 2). Please check this carefully before ordering. If you have one of these, our Pietta 1860
Army grips are milled to fit these as well as the Pietta cap & ball revolvers. Please contact us if you cannot find what you
need.
BRASS GRIP FRAMES
-- IMPORTANT!
*PLEASE NOTE: if you have a BRASS
gripframe (such as is sometimes found on the Cimarron “Pistolero”, Davidson’s
Exclusive 1873s, EMF’s GWII “Gunfighter”,
or Taylor’s “1873 Single Action Stag”
revolvers, for example), please send us an immediate followup email after your
purchase informing us that:
1) Your revolver has a brass
gripframe; and
2) IF your revolver has a
two-digit code inside a small rectangular box (as shown in the second picture
in this listing), or if your revolver alternatively is marked with Roman
numerals (i.e., “XXX” or “XXIV”), please send that code to us. If after a careful inspection you find that
your revolver does not have the code (which many of the newer revolvers do
not), you do not need to send the code, but it is still important to tell us
that you have a brass gripframe.
What these WILL NOT FIT:
These WILL NOT FIT any revolvers from
other makers (such as Uberti, Armi San Marco, Colt, Ruger, etc.). These grips will also NOT fit gripframes
other than the standard “plowhandle” style gripframe shape, such as the Bisley,
the Birdshead, the Thunderer, Thunderball, or the Lightning style gripframes, nor
any of the Remington style revolvers such as the 1858, 1875, or 1890.
Please take a careful look at the shape of your gripframe. These are for the “plowhandle” style
revolvers only.

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 a huge number of 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, Armi San Marco, and 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.
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!
