Kim Ahrends does it again!

[Bullseye Smith]

Those look great with the tung oil finish.

Kim, if I may suggest, please radius the side edges at the bottom of your current square butt grips just like you do with the round ones. The retro combats in the picture show what I have in mind.

This change will greatly reduce printing through clothing when bending over or turning the wrong way.

Those are some great looking Ahrends! I have the same grips on my four inch skinny barrel model 10. Mine are a very dark cocobolo. The colors range from burgundy to almost black. The grain isn't straight like most stocks made of this wood, but has a lot of wave to it. You just can't beat these stocks for fit and comfort.

We will be updating the website as soon as DHart gets us the pictures. We have Retro-Combats, Retro-Bananas and some new boot grips. Below is a set of square butt Retro-
Combat grips with the optional Tung oil finish.

Once again thank you guys for your support.

Kim, any chance of you producing grips with S&W medallions?

I like those grips, definitely a lot more orange in them than any of my ahrends. Only one of my smiths doesn't have ahrends on them. The stock grips don't fit me very well. So I always have a set ready by the time my ten day wait is up and I pick up the latest S&W.

forgot to ask retro-bananas??

Kim, Are you going to produce any boot grips for the SB K-frames??

Yes, Kim said so. Look at his post in this thread. Sorry, I don't know how to put it in this reply.

We've got Retro-Bananas, square butt Boots, a new Boot without finger grooves.

I'd love to put medallions in but without Smith's license it's not worth a possible legal hassle. If you want to see Ahrends Grips with medallions tell Smith.

Our current cocobolo supply is has much more orange and yellow.

Mr Ahrends, fantastic grips! Those retro-combat grips are too cool.

I have a set of Ahrends on my M619 which are very nice and make the revolver shootable even with full house Magnum rounds. They do very nice work for sure...

Look how well they fit on the backstrap. They look had fitted.

They are made from some beautiful wood too...

Wyatt,

Some really handsome grips and I LOVE the orange coloration.

Kim,

I also really like that Tung Oil finish. Very nicely done.

I also like Ahrends grips, and have 5 sets of them on various S&W revolvers. I especially like the Cordia and Cocobolo woods.

 

[thomasinaz]

Nice grips. I put them on all of my working Smiths. They look good and feel even better. Thanks Mr. Ahrends for providing us with all those fine grips.

 

[winter1857]

I love my Ahrends. Maple finger grooves on my Model 13-3. The picture doesn't do these stocks justice.....

 

[Slacker]

36 no dash with Ahrends.

 

[JCS&W]

My M296ti with a set of Ahrends on it. Makes this "baby rhino" look cute.

Kim, do you have an option to order without a finish applied?
