It confirms your replies. I will take some pictures and list them on this site. Have a great day !!!

lefty,
as I understand it to sell the grips to someone from another state you must have documentation proving that the ivory was
here before January 18, 1998.
it is not clear to me what kind of documentation would satisfy the federal government.
I do know that selling African ivory interstate without such documentation can result in heavy fines and jail time.
I would be interested to find out how you documented the grips, just in case a federal agent comes knocking at your door.
