I've been prepping for a revolver carry experiment. I was having trouble with slippery wood grips.

One solution was rubber bands:

The main problem is grips are expensive and I don't know what will work or what won't.



Stippled Ahrends Tactical Grips

The stippling provides a great grip! The gun no longer twists in my hand when I draw it.

I sanded the grips. Then I used a dremel with the round ball bit and stippled the wood to my satisfaction. I applied one coat of Tung oil to reseal it. The wood is very hard and the oil didn't stick very well. I had to cook the grips at 180-200 degrees for about two hours.

Good idea!


Las armas son necesarias
Pero nadie sabe cuando;
Asi no, si andas paseando,
Y de noche sobre todo,
Debes llevarlo de modo
Que al salir, salga cortando.

Very nice, amigo! Smiler


Shot-placement is king. Adequate penetration is queen. Everything else is angels dancing on the heads of pins.
