Pictures of custom grips

I have seen a lot of nice custom grips on this forum the last few months. How about let's post some pictures of our custom revolver and pistol grips?

I recently tacticalized my Single-Six with Pachmayr black rubber.
Advanced Technology made the stocks on my Mak-90.
The knives are a S&W H.R.T. 1 and 3.

The Pentagram is a symbol of a star encased in a circle. Always with 5 points (one pointing upward), each has its own meaning. The upward point of the star is representative of the spirit. The other four points all represent an element; earth, air, fire, and water. All these things contibutite to life and are a part of each of us.

To wear a pentagram necklace or other form of jewelry, is to say you feel the connection with the elements and respect the earth.

RofS,
Great definition of a Pentacle/pentagram. Also the way the lines of each point interweave thru each other represents how each element is an important part of the next. And the circle encompassing the whole thing represents either eternity or "life" as a whole and one complete and harmonious system.

I was taught a pentacle is what you show on your gun...Ill admit I could have been taught incorrectly. A pentagram is the same sign but has other markings that are designated for magical/occult practices. Also, a 6 sided representation is considered a pentagram...such as the sign of solomon/Solomons seal/star of david.

My ex mother in law thought (more like swore on whom evers grave) pentacles were "Evil". I ran her by Temple Square in SLC, and on one of the sides of the LDS/Mormon bldgs is a 5ft pentacle carved into it. She is LDS...she got real quiet after that.


Shoot well

That's a fine looking 10/22 bud.I haven't seen a laminated stock in that color pattern before.You must be a lefty.So am I.What brand barrel is that?Come over to www.rimfirecentral.com sometime.It's an excellent sight dedicated to rimfires,but more specifically 10/22s.I am a moderator there and love it.

The Star of David is actually two triangles, overlaid, one pointing up and one pointing down. In its simplest explainaton it means;

On earth, as it is in heaven or as above, also below

The stock was purchased from Midway about 5 years ago as a Fagen"Aristcrat" unfinished. A month of sundays sanding, and 20 coats of tung oil and there you have it. The color is "camo"
The barrel is from Sarco, and I believe it is a surplus Butler Creek. It's a 20.75" bbl, and boy can it shoot!

This is a Taurus 431 .44 special that George Stringer round butted for and the grips where made by Roy Fishpaw. the turn around time for the grips was 14 months. I have found another 431 in a pawn shop that I'm going to have the same work done to it.
