If you like them, they're great. Fit to your hand is comfortable, grip feels good & you rid yourself of those boring rubber grips.

Those are nice.

I would put those on a gun I owned. Good buy.

Grip selection is a very personal thing. I prefer the look of traditional wood but appreciate the practical reasoning for rubber grips. For looks though grips like yours are hard to beat.

Very pretty grips. Sure look nicer on the gun.

The AJE on the inside of the grips stand for "Art Jewel Enterprise(s?)," a company run pretty much as a one man show by Harban Singh. The grips may have a stamp that reads "India", and, if you look very closely, you may see the initials HS in pencil. If I'm not mistaken "Eagle Grips" now has an "Art Jewel" line that concentrates on fancy gemstone looking grips.

You have some nice grips there.

I know that rubber grips sometimes feel better, but when the lights are on, looks count too. Those look good.

Thanks for the replies, I don't have time to get out and shoot latley so my gun fun has been searching for grips, working out of Dickenson ND and got time to hit a few pawn shops looking with no luck then got to the last one and they had two boxes of used grips on the counter, grab on to these not even careing about price, then looked and could not belive it, turned out to be 20.00 and the lady gave me the screwdriver.
So now i am on the search for A gun for the wife, then i can start looking for grips again...... well you guys understand.

Screwdriver?

Once again, Nice grips. A question about the screwdriver in pic #4. It is an unusual piece. Any idea what it was designed for? Jim

j a , not a screwdriver, it is a swivel knife for carving leather.

OK then...

What a dummy I am. Can't tell the difference between a knife and a screwdriver. Thanks for the reply. Enjoy the grips. Jim
