be careful with wood grips, too... I have some exotic wood stocks by a well known maker (that I still buy from) and the tannins (?) bled out of them the first summer I had them and caused pitting on the stainless steel grip frame... this wasn't even a carry gun, happened sitting in my house!
noticed too that the grip maker doesn't use that species of wood anymore...

Would you care to share the wood you're refering to?
