The best for my hand on a Bisley are these that Alan Harton built when he worked my OM 44 Mag some years ago. When he finished them, with his wood, he was not pleased and asked if I wanted another set to be built. Nope. They just work for me in this application.   |

Jwheeler331, I’m not sure how this works but if you are willing, it might be great to change the post title to custom grip gallery or something? I think you’d still get a lot of bisley grips, but there are already so many gorgeous grips that I feel like it should be a sticky. Not trying to hijack your intent it just seems to be taking on a life of its own. I changed the title in case it's wanted as a sticky. |

Musk ox horn  Dall Sheep  Walnut  Carved ivory #5  More walnut  And more walnut  Sambar Stag  African Mammalian Dentin  Modified walnut  Cocobolo  Plain walnut once again  Ivory #5  Such nice revolvers. That first Vaquero looks like a Ruger No 5. Sweet. |

Thank you Sir. The first one is just a bisley vaquero with sights added. The gun that wears the last grips shown is the only Ruger #5 gun I own.

LOTS OF INCREDIBLE GRIPS PICTURED SO FAR. MY PERSONAL PREFERENCE FOR CUSTOM GRIP MATERIAL IS "critter" GRIPS (STAG, HORN, IVORY, BONE, ANTLER, etc.) BUT NOT TO THE EXCLUSION OF ALL WOOD GRIPS.

Kings6, I like the casual pic of bighorn slabs before being fitted, with no mention of the Damascus barrel and ejector rod housing in the background 😂 what’s the storrry?
