That is very kind of you sir!
I'm being a bit measured in my marketing.
I already built another mold to improve the turn around time.
I still want a full cure buffer of 2 days before shipping. I really only make 2-3 per day. And that includes getting up at 0dark thirty, for a changeover.
Thanks for sharing your experience with others.
Doing what I can for this community is its own reward. I'm grateful.
Russ...

Been hit with plenty of both in my life. Nary a democrat to be found, but I'm pretty sure the tornado got stronger when I revved the motor on my weedeater. Lol.

Got mine today. Very impressed with the fit, feel and quality. Shooting with them will be later this week. I expect good things.

I've been through some of the worst: Hurricanes Betsy (1965), Camille (1969), Katrina (2005) and Rita (2005). My luck's held out! Fooled "Mother Nature" a few years ago and bought a whole-house generator. No hurricane since...and it REALLY sucks without power! Now, I figure I have the generator it's like a vaccination! :mrgreen:

Are the grips thicker than the stock grip wall thickness?

Got mine earlier this week. I installed a 20# Wolff recoil spring and the new grip in about 3 minutes. Today I put 60 rounds downrange and it's like I had an entirely different pistol - just a plain pleasure to shoot! Thank you Russ!

Looks like I'll be ordering at least a couple of these.

Just arrived. Look good but will have to put them on later tonight.

A couple with the original plastic grips

One with the original grips, one with a Hogue slip on rubber grips and one with the new rubber grips

With Original, Hogue, Marscal and the new rubber grips

All three of the new grips on - slip on quick and a firm whack on the bottom and the snap eight into place. They feel good and appear to be very sturdy. Can't wait to get into the canyon and fire a few rounds.

I see no problem with the fit in my US Gunleather holster I picked up a few years ago - In fact bought a couple more holsters and mag carriers for my brothers I liked them so much. The new grips don't interfere at all so I highly recommend both the grips and the holster for CCW purposes.

Got mine!

It slipped right up without any effort... and then clicked in place. And now it feels nice and tight. Looking forward to being able to test drive it.

Thanks!
