I really like them. I think they would look great on a stainless gun.

well they might be spoken for, i'm in the middle of a trade right now with a guy who owns a sawmill and he was wanting a blue set but he couldn't make up his mind which set of scales he liked better. I sent him pics of this set and the last blue set I made but i'm still waiting to hear from him, if he picks this set then I have some more Blue dyed Maple Burl that I can make you a set from, if not then i'll give you first shot at this set.

price would be $75 shipped and insured.

Hi Lane
Nice grips
Have you tried to make a set for the Ruger LCR?

Thanks

hi

no, I haven't tried making them for the LCR yet, unfortunately I'd need the pistol to make the grips and I don't have one.

sorry!

full size, Mesquite burl. with a satin oil finish and plenty of cracks like the customer wanted.

Interesting looking grips. Almost look like cork.

Don't the cracks and crevices weaken the integrity of the grips?

thanks, normally the cracks and crevices would weaken the grips but I filled them all with 1500 psi clear epoxy leaving just enough visible cracks to suit the customers taste.
