Vitoonmakers (Ebay) Grips

[NY-1]

Does the grips allow use of speedloaders ?

Yes - a Safariland Comp II speedloader loaded fine and fell free alright as far as I can tell.

How timely, I was looking at those last night.

I wish he would get some smooth targets made as well.

I've definitely seen smooth RB targets in his storefront before. Can't hurt to shoot him a message or something to see if there are any in the pipeline. That's what I did with these checkered ones last month on ebay and he advised that they'd be available sometime in April.

I am a big fan of his grips as well. Blows Altamont out of the water.

He has some light colored targets that I really like. I managed to snap a K frame set for this gunsmith special:

I believe this set of faux Colt all-checkered (1950s style) was from his as well. They were that orange hue mentioned above, so I dyed them to more resemble walnut.

I've looked at his grips many times on eBay, over several years, but never purchased. I think I need to look again, and maybe spend wisely.

I messaged him and he got right back. Smooth targets are coming in 1-2 months.

Ordered a checkered pair.

I bought a set of N-round combats for my 627-0 and the fit/finish is excellent. Only complaint would be the trigger guard to middle finger gap. On my Culina and Factory Smith Combats there's more room than on the Vitoon's. I have pretty big hands.

My RB targets are arriving on Fri the 18th. I just ordered on the 12th. Pretty darn good service, imo.
Beats the USPS by an ocean and couple continents.

I'll be watching for the smooth RB's.

I look forward to seeing what you get.

He is very responsive, he emailed me this morning to thank me and ask me where my brother lives that was part of our conversation.
My brother has lived in Thailand for the past two years. Not the usual story one hears about that at all.

My grips cleared customs yesterday, out for delivery today.

I received 3 sets today from our friend Vitoon and I must say that I am quite impressed. I'll be ordering more....

10 stars for Vitoonmaker. Ordered 4/12 received today 4/18. He has a great operation. Looking forward to my next order. The color is great.
If one wanted to really nitpick, a dome screw would be the only thing. I may have a few in my stash.

Just ordered the last pair of K round Combats on Amazon. Cant wait for him to churn out some more k round targets on Ebay.

 

[ladder13]

Vitoonmaker emailed me this morning asking what I meant by dome screws, asking if they were round heads. I told him yes, and that it was just a preference and not a big deal, just that I was used to the screws that come with S&W's.
I will be buying more of his grips in any event.

I've been corresponding with our friend Vitoon via email and last week he let me know that a new batch had just been posted on eBay.

I don't know how many were posted, but this is what I was able to get -

 

[ladder13]

Looks like you got them all.

Very nice, he makes great grips. I think the K round target grips like yours are the nicest looking grip out there. Add some nice wood like yours only adds to the appearance, Larry

I was just looking at his wares and the last one in maple popped up, just what I was waiting on. Should be here in a week or so.
He has a bunch of K/L round targets listed.
