Anyone try the KSDgrips??
I just run across these and was intrigued by how thin the wood grips appeared to be on the factory look alike model....they show grips for the 4506 and 5906 and maybe a future rendition for the CS9.....their wood versions of the factory grips smack of a copy wright infringement but they look to be 2 pieces......hope they consider making the factory look wood model for the 39xx's

I ordered some and would be happy to post some up close pics when they arrive. Although, I did not buy any that mimicked the factory plastic grips just the "rosewood" aftermarket style.

Those are the ones I'm interested in too... by all means, please report back. They look a lot more promising in thickness than what the wood Hogue grips offer.

I love their "factory look" wood grips. WANT! WANT! WANT!
They look like one piece to me. How do they do that in wood?

If they were made in the US, I would have bought one for every 3rd gen I own. I do like the look of them.

I might be missing something but I could not figure out how to get their web page to read in English. How much are they shipped and how long will it take to receive them? Do they take credit cards?

Beautiful work and I predict you're going to sell a ton of them as soon as you get your website up and running in English.
Please keep us informed.

Thank you for the update. I am looking forward to receiving them. I too might be interested in these type of grips for some of the other models like the 3rd gen 40 cal and 9mm single stack variations. I would imagine that Turkey has lots of high quality hard wood available. Have you guys considered lighter woods like maple? Now that would make some pretty grips if stable enough at these dimensions.

There are two sets of toggles, one for language and a different one for currency. Sounds like you may have hit the currency toggle.

Or stronger glasses. That Union Jack is almost microscopic.
The grips look nice. I join the others in hopes that 3913/14 grips will follow.

Well, yes, I found a page with some English words, but could you tell me what "Fiyat : $0.00" is? English? The type of pistol the grips fit would be useful, too. <G>
I love those grips, but the webpage is not quite ready for prime time. Perhaps after several more cups of coffee. <G>

Yes, not sure why the site does not show how much in $, or any other currency- at least I could convert if it did.

Fiyat = Price.
Obviously, prices aren't showing up yet in any currency. In that regard, the company website isn't quite ready yet for prime time. But prices are available at that other website the name of which we can't speak.
This site will help for those desiring a bit more complete translation of the company website than offered up by the language toggle: https://translate.google.com/

Really, really, want those factory replica grips for 4596 and 5906.
Just what my 4566 and 5946 need.
The orthopedic grips look good, too.

Just right of center at the top! There are 4 buttons, one says TL. That means Translate Language!
"Rhymes with d-day." Am I missing something or is personal aversion to E-Bay infecting answers? Why not just come out straight and answer the man's question?

Your work looks great.
As you're in Turkey it should be simple to make wood grips for the Sarsilmaz SAR K2 45.

I agree, the KDS products are very, very nice looking. If the fit is as good as the finish then I'm all in for some wood for my 4506. I just hope they don't have that thick/fat feel that Hogue wood has. I like Hogues very much but they just don't work for me. I hope KDS solves that.

It appears that they use the standard pin hole so I'm thinking that they have to be one piece.

They are two piece. Otherwise they wouldn't fit or risk splitting when installing or removing.

Say, those 4506 grips don't fit a 457, do they? I can't remember what the corresponding model was to the 457.
In any event, this is an intriguing development and I would certainly buy a set for a 3913 or 3914 or a 457 for that matter.

if you click KSD's photos it will link you to his Photobucket account where there are more pics.....I just hope he has all the legal mumbo-jumbo taken care of to reproduce all the factory logos (S&W, Browning,Beretta,F&N, etc......)because the look of his grips is outstanding

Please, let us all pray that the "legal mumbo-jumbo" doesn't get in the way of importing these amazing looking grips.
But like others, I'd still like to know how the 3rd Gen grips are constructed and how they fit onto the gun? Use of the stock pin implies one piece but one post above says they are two-piece. Which is correct?

it is two piece.One of the piece has two steel pin 10mm long,3mm wide and we use special strong glue.This is how we make it one piece.There is a special section in grip.This part takes the stress from recoil.Break it.I'll send you new one or if it is not tight on firearm ill send you new one.

Just to confirm (sorry, I am old and dense)... Are you saying that you make it in two pieces but it will be delivered to us as one (already glued together) wrap-around piece?
