Just ordered new grips

Post by Stang »

I love the gun (have 2) and they shoot so sweet.

I broke down and just ordered a set of Marschal grips in walnut with red shellac and checkered.

They just look so nice.... now the wait begins !!

Pict will follow but dont hold your breath !

Shoot Safe!

Yeah, I ordered a set grips about 3 weeks ago. Looked like I would have to wait about a 3 months. From all the reviews that I read, it should be worth the wait. I guess well both have to be patient.

Man, those grips I saw on his website look great, but the wait times kinda make me nervous. Why so long?

As his web site describes he has quite a backlog of work. (if you go into his order tracking you can get a feel) I am glad to see someone so successful just wish it was a US company....... seems like an opportunity here somewhere. Anyone have a CNC machine that will do wood work ?

I am a CNC Swiss Lathe and Mill programmer/set up operator, have been for the last twenty years, but the company I work for does DOD/Orthorpedic work - they are pretty strict as to what they allow to be ran on the machines.

I'm in Ohio, which is home to a whole passel of highly skilled machinists. I've found that a fair percentage of them have a "small shop" at home in their garage.
