BK Grip Adapters

BK

Here is my BK grip on my 60-3. I think the fit is very good. The function is excellent just came in from the range and after 75 rounds I like it a lot. I look forward to trying out a N frame version when available. Kip thanks a lot for making these for us. Wish you the best of luck.

again, only in America can someone step up and fill a need.....as soon as you get up and running I intend to push out the info on all the forums I frequent

Thank you, sir, yer a most efficient product-maker.

Post range visit from this afternoon.

The good: The grip adapter was great. I find that I even prefer the feel of it to the regular wood boot grip I have.

The bad: I have not been going to the range enough... At all... And didn't even bother to take a picture of the target... Better get back to casting some more bullets...

I must say the BK adapters are looking good on the guns in the pics.

Have not had a chance to take a photo but just got my BK Grip for my 36 no dash. The fit is near perfect and the feel is great. It is a great product and I will be ordering more when they are up and running. Cannot recommend BK Grips enough! Thanks Kip. Remember us little people when you are sitting in that corner office.

I will come to work for you for ammo and S&W K frames!

I'm interested in a few in the N frame size, both square and round butt.

When you start production of your adapters,mark me down for some. I have s&w,colt,and ruger d/a revolvers that i'd buy adapters for.

Almost open for business

I hope to have enough grip adapters made to be able to start taking orders for J frame adapters tomorrow or Monday. I will do that in the classifieds section, but will also post a note here when it happens.

Thereafter, discussions about the J frame adapters apparently should go on under my classified ad.

When I get ready to do the K frame size(s) I'll probably start another thread here looking for a few hardy souls to examine the prototypes, as I did with the J size. Then, once I can start regular sales it will move to the classifieds again.

Thanks for all your support thus far. I have one more request regarding the J frame adapters, which I will put up in the next post.

I definately want a K square adapter to try!

Thanks for what you are doing!

St Louis area stainless J frame owners

I've worked up a few samples of J frame adapters in a couple of shades of gray. I would like to get together with someone in the St. Louis area who has a J frame in stainless, aluminum, or hopefully both, to get a few pictures with the different colors on the different frames. These can be posted on the forum for folks to see and give feedback on what looks best

At the moment my lighting gear is set up at Outdoors Inc, 9755 Clayton Road in Ladue (a mile or so east of Lindbergh).

If anyone has one or both types of J frames and would be willing to cross paths with me at Outdoors Inc, please drop me an email at [email protected]. I live near there and can be pretty flexible on times.

Thanks in advance.

J frame adapters available

I've posted a long ad in the classifieds section, with an initial offering of the J frame grip adapters. Check it out.

And thanks again for all the help on this thread. This project wouldn't be where it is today without all of your input.

a suggestion (like you haven't had enough of those lately) to fix the bubble problem. i have no experience with pouring or molding anything, so take my suggestion accordingly.

But if you were to make the mold slightly extend beyond the problem areas, then after they set, just grind or polish away the extra material, maybe with the help of some sort of guide or jig? then maybe it would be easier to get the bubbles away from the edges. i can visualize how it would be hard to get the bubbles away from that area.

We generally frown on selling in the gun forums, but we do like to encourage product development.
wrangler and I discussed this, and his endeavor is 'blessed'.

However, I failed to inform the Mods, and I apologize to them and you folks here for the confusion.
They were merely doing their jobs efficiently when this thread was closed.

mea culpa.

 

[handejector]

It is fine if the discussion/development continues here for now.

 

[Maximumbob54]

Have you tried giving just a very light spritz of mold release to the resin once the mold is topped off? I don't know if it works on all forms of pourable resin but it was a tip I found when looking up the same issue. I don't like the thought of buying a vacuum chamber. Too much equipment for small time. Although for you it might be a thought if volume does remain.

I'm in the market for new grips

After trying 3 different grips.. Tyler T-Grips garnered some of my interest. However, I ran into the thread that seemed to be bad news for the company.. but also lead me to this thread.

I'll be interested in at least one once you start making em for N-Frame revolvers, epecially something that'll blend in to a stainless finish!

Great work!

 

[okie john]

Thank you for trying this. Is there a chance you could make a grip adapter like the old Pachmayr, which is like a T-Grip but without the finger groove? I'll post a pic if I can find the one that's knocking around my place.

Keep up the good work.

I was one of the lucky ones who jumped on the first few BK Adapters offered on the Forum by Kip.

My black adapter for M36 arrived today and I opened the package literally minutes ago. Adapter is installed. Fit and finish are good. I like the black color and matte(?) finish better than the polished aluminum T-Grips I have on three other S&Ws.

That's my report for now because I have a board meeting in less than an hour. Will try to share more details as I live with the new feel of my Chief Special.

First Impression (after 5 minutes): Excellent!

Best of luck to BK -- we need this product available.

Thanks for taking the risk, Kip.
