two-PIECE
(with SCREWHOLE) STYLE grips

THIS LISTING IS FOR OUR
TWO-PIECE (SCREWHOLE) STYLE GRIPS

********

ONE-PIECE VS. TWO-PIECE STYLE GRIPS EXPLAINED:

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

One-Piece
style grips (i.e., grips with no visible screwhole in the grips) incorporate a spacer
(included with the grips) which is user mounted to the inside of the grip
panels to hold them in place instead of a using a screw.  To ensure optimum fit and best performance, the
spacer is sent unmounted since all gripframes vary slightly in inside
dimensions.  Installation is simple and generally
takes only a few minutes.  Illustrated
instructions included with each order. 
This results in a rock-tight fit, without the need of a screw.  One-Piece grips are preferred by many
collectors for their clean lines and traditional look, and are seen on many
early Colts. Once mounted, they are fully removable by removing the three
backstrap screws, and will not alter your revolver in any way.  Reinstallation is in reverse order. 

Alternatively, our Two-Piece style
grips (i.e., grips with a visible screw) offer the superior convenience of
quick grip removal using only the screw (also included with the grips).  Our Two-Piece style grips also include our
proprietary Conversion Kit, allowing
their use on revolvers that do not have a grip pin in the frame (as is the case
with most Italian-made revolvers and others that currently have a one-piece
style grip).  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. 
Two-piece grips give you the advantage of easier access to your revolver
for cleaning and maintenance, 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 shooters and collectors.

Fully
illustrated, easy-to-follow mounting instructions are included with every order.

* 
Uberti / Cimarron 1872 Open Top Army, also known as: Colt
Model 1871 Open Top, or 1871-72 Open Top. (Note: these will NOT fit the Open Top “Navy” sized revolvers, which use a
grip approx. 3-1/8” tall.  Your grips
should be around 3-3/8” tall for these to fit.)

* 
Uberti / Taylor’s & Co. “C. Mason” 1860 Army Revolver.  (Note:
these will NOT fit the 1851
Navy style revolvers, which use a grip approx. 3-1/8” tall)

* 
Uberti / Taylor’s & Co. “Open Top” 1860 Army Revolver.  (Again, these will NOT fit the 3-1/8” tall 1851 Navy style revolvers)

*  THESE WILL ALSO FIT other
Uberti made revolvers chambered by Uberti to fire metallic cartridges, based on
the “Army” sized gripframe with a grip height of approx. 3-3/8”; such as the Taylor’s & Co. (Uberti) Gunfighter, and Gunfighter Defender; Taylor’s (Uberti) Cattleman .44 Mag.; Taylor’s Hickock Conversion; the

UBERTI GRIPFRAME
VARIATIONS -- IMPORTANT!

→  PLEASE
NOTE!!   Over the years Uberti has used multiple
variations of gripframes on their SAA style revolvers, and each uses a slightly
different grip.  We carry grips for each
of these different profiles.  In order
for us to ensure that you get the proper grips, please add a note to your order with the following date-code information:

IF your revolver has a two-digit date code inside
a small rectangular box, or circle, 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 attach a note to your order with that information.  Please note that some of the newer revolvers
have the actual date stamped on the frame (i.e., “2022”), so if that is the
case please send that.  Also note that these
codes or dates are sometimes also stamped on the side of the mainframe (under
the cylinder), or at the base of the barrel. 
Please inspect your revolver carefully under good light for this
information.

If after a careful
inspection you find that your revolver does not have the code (which some of
the newer revolvers do not), please send us the first three digits of the
serial number.

Please note that if
we do not hear from you, we will send the most common style grip profile in
order to get the grip out on time.

Note: “PN” and
“CIP” are Italian proof marks and are NOT the correct date codes.

What these will NOT fit:

Please note that these WILL NOT FIT the Uberti 1860
Army Black Powder (Percussion, or “Cap & Ball”) revolvers.  These revolvers use
a different grip frame.  Please be aware
that just because you may be using a CONVERSION CYLINDER in an 1860 Army
percussion revolver to fire metallic cartridges, if the revolver came from the
factory set up as a percussion gun, you still have a percussion revolver frame,
and these will NOT fit.  Please contact
us for the proper grips if you have the percussion style 1860 Army.

In
addition, these WILL NOT FIT
anything with a 3-1/8” tall gripframe. 
Your grip frame MUST be around
3-3/8” tall for these to fit.  It is important to double check your grip
height before ordering, because some of the models listed above also ship with
an 1851 Navy sized grip (at approx. 3-1/8”), which are shorter than the 1860
Army (at approx. 3-3/8”).  Please contact
us if you cannot locate the correct grips for your revolver; we are 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 from the beginning 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.

About Our Aging Process:

We
go to great efforts to ensure that our Aged Ivory or Stag not only looks similar to, 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.  Our aged grips feature an
authentic aged patina, just like the originals, with a process incorporating
concentrated U.V. light (the essential aging property in natural sunlight), along
with a developer/control agent that is put on the grips to carefully control
U.V. absorption, in a sealed, high-oxygen environment to accelerate the natural
aging process. 

Through
this 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, Magna-Tusk develops
a variegated patina due to its authentic grain structure, and natural aging
produces an authentic appearance and genuine patina which extends into and
below 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, where our grips are immediately seen and noticed
by others.  If you are interested in
ordering grips for a Brace of pistols, please order both sets together, and we
will ensure a better matchup when selecting pairs. 

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!
