Show me the Spegels!!!

[Glock 'em down]

I'm geting a new 442 no lock this weekend and I wanna dress it up a little. I thought about a set of Craig Spegel Centennial stocks for my new pocket rocket.

Anybody use his Centennial stocks? Do you prefer smooth or checkered? Can I get a set for less than a C-note?

Let's see some pics!

I realy prefer the feel of the smooth Spegels but with the Airweights/Airlites the added grip texture of the checkering helps with the recoil..
Pardon the Glock in the Last Pic, It's RTF2 G19 bought Black Friday 2009

I put smooth Spegels on almost all my J-frames. The only checkered Spegels I have are some "Boot Plus" grips on my 624. I don't want the checkering eating on either my clothes or my flesh. The ones seen below are for sale. I put a set of CT LG-405 lasergrips on the 642 and gave it to my daughter-in-law, so I don't need the Spegels anymore. E-mail me if you are interested. (Yes, less than a C-note.)

Seems like I zapped the pic of the ones on my 642-1...shucks. I just have one other set...some N-frame ones.

Glock 'em Down I hope you were able to score that set of Spegels offered above & they weren't scarfed before you could reply..
Good Luck in your Quest!!

Did you just want to see some Spegels or do they have to be J frame ones? Here's some N frame 'pocket rocket' Spegels on 325 NG.

I went with Eagles, rather than Spegels on my 442.

Well, I didn't get to send a PM before -db- said he would take 'em.

I sent a PM, but I haven't heard back from 38-44HD45 yet. So...we'll see!

Great pics, guys! Keep 'em coming!

I'm sorry about that. I didn't realize, while browsing the thread, that you were looking to buy. You, of course, are in line before me. I apologize for jumping the gun.

Hey Tom.

Nah! No worries, friend. I just heard from 38-44HD45...they are yours if you want 'em.

I was reading on Craig's website and he mentioned something about humidity causing grips to sometimes warp.

I live in dreary ol' humid enriched Oklahoma. We have damn near 100% humidity year round! I plan on putting these Spegels on my model 442 and carrying it exclusively in my pocket 7 DAYS A WEEK for long periods of time.

What will that type of carry along with Oklahoma's sultry climate do to these awesome stocks? Should I be worried?

Do you prefer smooth or checkered?

Smooth hands down for pocket carry. Checkered is better for shooting but smooth is just fine for my 642's intended use. I can't shoot a J frame particularly well anyway but how good do you need to be at 10 feet?

I've been pocket carrying 642's with Spegels in $12.95 Uncle Mike's for years in Florida. No problems at all with the grips not holding up.

About the most miserable I've ever been from heat and humidity was at a big horse show in Tulsa in August of 1983. Temp. was about 98F, humidity about 95%, zero breeze. I know whereof you speak. Living out here in the semi-desert, humidity is rarely a problem, but I've never had any warpage of any of my Spegel grips. You might want to think about applying an extra coat or two of some good wax or oil-based wood finish to the inside surfaces of the grips, though.

Nice HP Richard. Is it Belgium?

…but for humidity (we don't have that in the AZ desert) I'd use resin stabilized:
