Default Gun Grips from Thailand



I know this isn't a S&W, but just wanted to show the grips I got this morning from Thailand off ebay. The seller's name was Jaruwan and the grips were about $40 including shipping. The type of wood was not specified - sort of looks like Cocabola, but they probably don't have much of that in Bangkok. He must have some modern machinery because they are machined/milled very precisely and fit tight like my Ahrends. The round butt on these things keeps the GP100 (3") small enough to carry well, but they wrap the back strap and fit my big hands very well. This seller also has grips for K/L frame, J frame and other guns also. If you're looking for some nice fitting grips that don't cost a fortune you may check this guy out. Best wishes, B

I deal solely with Jaruwan p and have now ordered 6 pairs of his grips.one was a burl special order for my wife's revolver. All fit perfectly,arrived well within the time quoted and he even follows up to gauge my opinion on quality and fit.
He strikes me as a conscientious businessman and I do hope to visit his factory one day.

I wondered about these over seas grips. Glad to hear they are good to go. I may have to try out a set. What is the shipping time?

I just looked up Jaruwan p on ebay & they state
"The user ID was not found"

Could you head me in the right direction.
