I'm presently waiting for a pair for my Night Guard. I still have weeks to wait. I went with Red Stained Maple because Cocobolo can no longer be imported. How did you get the Cocobolo's?
 
Very nice! :)

I said I wasn't going to get anymore stocks...but I'm might get a set of those Bubinga for my model 10! :D
 
They're still around...just have to get lucky to find them. It's a real shame that they banned the importation of Cocobolo. :(
 
Are those Bubinga's oiled? They look much better than mine.

Both are exquisite, could you please send me a PM to give me some input on how you feel they would fit a small to medium hand size. I have a new M617 I would like to enhance. Thanks
 
I've bought 4 sets of grips from them, outstanding seller.

Terri (gripseller) is a pleasure to work with...I've bought 7 sets so far!

Here is a Cordia set on my 27-3. The direct sun washed out the color a tad in the photo. I also have Bubinga on my 29-3, but no photo.

They look great. Does one need to buy from the Ebay seller or can I buy directly from Ahrend's?

You can buy direct, but the wait seems like 8 weeks or so as they are made to order, and you won't see the actual stocks until they are delivered. Gripseller has photos of the already made stocks...you get exactly what you see! And you get them in 2 days.

I have medium sized hands and I think the finger groves are just right. The overall size is just right.

Ahrend's makes the same grip without the finger groves.

Everybody is different of course so you'd really have to try them.

I have purchased a total of 15 sets from Terri, though none recently. FANTASTIC person to deal with. Never an issue.
 
They look really fine! I just don't pay much attention to combats, because anything w/ finger grooves never seem to feel right in my hand. Most of my Smiths wear target grips. Different grips for different people & needs! Bob
