Tyler T Grip company shutdown - shipping again

[alexrex20]

A couple weeks is the fastest you had them? Sorry that is not speedy either. There is no excuse for how long it takes them to ship out their product. Unless they have a really really big family and lots of deaths.

I'm sure the guy would be happy to sell the business for the right price to someone who knows how to do it better [emoji38]

I love my T grips. I buy a set of them, and some Magnas, every time I buy a S&W wheel gun. That said, I quit buying them direct from Tyler. They make a great product, but they are not the best business to deal with as a customer.

Why don't you that want one go to the classifieds and look up "BK grip adapters". They are made from a resin, (much lighter) but otherwise the same as a Tyler (Patent expired many years ago). He is in the St Louis area and will supply with in just days.



The early ones were various colors, but he has mostly a black and a silver one currently. May produce other colors from time to time.

H Richard, thanks for the tip I looked them up on yahoo search & got the information.

As far as I'm concerned, Tyler is a rip off. They still owe me a polished adapter for a RB Kframe. I gave them two tries to get it right, but the fit was so ridiculously off on both occassions, I sent them back with a note. After the second return, I never heard from them. No refund. No replacement, despite repeated e-mails. Now, I only buy T-Grips when I find a decent online deal on older, boxed adapters that predate the current owner's product. As far as I'm concerned, the current owner is a disgrace. His ethics and business practices are less than honorable. Your experience may vary from mine, but I will never go direct with Tyler-T again. Ever.

The BKs work great, are shipped quickly and the owner is a nice guy who's constantly working to improve his product. Perfect fit with several I've bought. Too bad about Tyler. Below is a recent BK adapter I recently purchased.

I'm another who has given up on Tyler's, not because of any of the problems mentioned here, but because I have to fill out an order form, write a check, put it in and envelope, stamp it, put it in the mailbox, and wait for however long.

I can go to BK's website, click on "order," then click on "pay" and I have it shipped to me, and in my mailbox, probably before I'd remember to take an envelope with an order to the mailbox in the first place.

Update on Tyler T-grip order

Thought I might provide current order information:

Ordered a T-grip in mid-September, they deposited my check 10/2/16, have not received my grip as of 11/2/16.
Phone and email messages not returned.
Website says 2-3 week turnaround.
I really hate Tyler appears to be so unreliable, they have a great product.
When/if I receive the product, will advise.

Very pleased to report I received my T-grip in yesterday's mail (11/7/16). Fits perfectly. Completes my model 66 with a set of Patrick Grashorn's stag grips. Happy Camper!

I ordered a BK grip adaptor Monday received it on Thursday this week. Haven't heard Tyler T shipping fast. Put it on my Model 30 fit was perfect. I will be going to Bk in the future for my needs.

I dont see what all the fuss is about. I put a check in the mail, a few weeks later i randomly had a T grip in my mailbox.

doesnt bother me at all.
