If my flawed memory works your grip frame is a Ron Powers #5 right? They are probably fairly consistant, I know the TLA #5 grip frames are like snow flakes, no two are the same.
I sure dont know of anyone who make a "stock" grip for those but Alan Harton might have a extra set of work ups because he had wood grips on my #5 when he was building the gun before Persinger did his magic in Ivory. I dont know, its a long shot...

I've got two of Ron's grip frames. I have one set of ram's horn made by Patrick Grasshorn and one set is walnut from Blu Magnum. Both sets swap between the two nearly perfect. Point being the Power #5 grip frames are all pretty close.

Princeout was extremely generous in sending me his grip panels to see if a TLA would fit a #5 gripframe from Powers. I have posted the results of the matchup. I want to first put in this disclaimer. Safety obviously is first and foremost in my mind. The brass you see are empties I use as snapcaps to practice shooting. I always double check the brass prior to practicing to be absolutely sure each one is a EMPTY snapcap before practicing. Nuff said on that! Here are the pics of how a TLA fits on a powers.    |

Did you select someone to build your grips?
I have a #5 in need of grips, but its a very low budget gun, i don't want to spend more on grips than i have in the whole gun.

Seancass, check with Zane at LSCG. If he has your frame, I'm sure he can fix you up within your constraints.

Sean, are you going to build them yourself? I experimented with this and the project stalled. I'll price farming it out, but if the budget doesn't allow, it just won't happen right now. This is not a high-priority project for me this week. |
