There are a lot of grip makers out there claiming to be “custom” grip makers. Many of them make grips from a master pattern on a machine and ship the grips to you. This isn’t “custom”. One size does not fit all. If you ship them your guns and ask them to “custom fit” the grips, the grips are still made from this master and not to the exact dimensions of your grip-frame.  You will still see and feel metal in certain places. Outlaw Grips look and feel as if they grew on your grip-frame. Every pair is carefully made to the exact outline of your grip-frame. Think of a suit made by a tailor. Two people that are a 44 long do not have the exact same shoulder width or chest diameter. A tailor measures every dimension and makes the suit fit like it grew on you. This is how Outlaw Grips are made. Every grip-frame is different, yes even consecutive serial numbered guns. When you buy pre-made grips through the mail, they won’t fit perfectly, period.

           Some “grip makers” charge $50.00 to $75.00 to re-blue your grip-frame because they grind the grips and the grip-frame down together.  I don’t want someone grinding the grip-frame down on my new Colt, how about you?

           Outlaw Grips are not mass produced off a master pattern or ground to your grip-frame. A pattern is created from your grip-frame and then the grips are made from this pattern. The grips are then hand fit to the exact contour of your grip-frame. There is no finer or more precise way to make grips.   Like the finest hand tailored suit, Outlaw Grips are made with precision, patience and a complete understanding of quality. Your grips will fit the grip-frame perfectly and both sides will match in tone and appearance. In most cases they will be “book matched”.

           Putting a set of Outlaw Grips in your hands will surprise you in the way they fit, feel and shoot. SASS National and State Champion JT Wild will tell you what he thinks. His four Colts have  Buckeye Burl on them.

           The list of State and National Champions and top five shooters that use Outlaw Grips is quite extensive, but to wet your whistle just ask JT Wild, Tex, Cat Ballou, Long Hunter, Dirty Bob, Silverado, Mean Rayleen, Slick McClade, Sweetwater, Smackwater Jack, Ramblin’ Rose, No Horse Charlie, Goodness Grace or Sassy Dancer how they like theirs. Evil Roy said, “Wow, these are really nice. The fit and feel are incredible. Thell Reed’s Colts wear Outlaw Grips.

      Outlaw Grips are some of the finest custom grips you can put your hands on. No plastics, resin mold grips or micarta here. If you want the best that money can buy, this is it. Outlaw Grips makes custom grips for any style single action grip-frame and for 1911’s.  They are made for people who appreciate perfection and expect the highest quality. Outlaw Grips has been making grips for Collectors, Lawmen, Movies, Cowboys, Cowboy Action Shooters, Mounted Shooters and Fast Draw competitors since 1987. We also perform top quality gunsmith work on Colts, Reproductions and Ruger single action revolvers. From a fully custom Ruger to sighting in a Colt, it will be done right. The shop is open from 8am to 4pm, Monday through Friday and Saturday by appointment.

      Over forty hardwoods & burls, giraffe bone and elephant ivory are available. The hardwoods & burls are carefully selected for their stability, color and unique figure. After the woods have been milled and dimensioned, they have cured for a minimum of one year. This insures the grips won’t crack, shrink or warp. Premium pre-ban elephant ivory is also available. An “Affidavit of Origin” certificate is available upon request.

           If you want the “Competition” grip, it is designed specifically for Cowboy Action Shooting. It’s not just about making them thinner, it’s about the contour and the finish. This grip is specially shaped  to fit your hand better than any other grip on the market. It also has a unique finish that will resist rolling/slipping under recoil. Forget checkering. The finish “breathes” so it will not become slippery in your hand with moisture. It actually stays in place better. Over six months of testing went into creating this finish. People love this grip because it works.

           If you want a thicker grip, a thinner one, a bevel on the bottom, a display finish or the factory profile, you have come to the right place. Just ask and it is yours. See the Grip Profile page.

           Outlaw Grips makes a “Collector Grade” grip for the most discerning customers. These grips start at $250.00 per gun. Classically shaped they are impeccably crafted to be works of art and perfection. Finishing them off with seven coats of a modified oil-urethane blend that are wet sanded between coats, creates a finish that will leave you speechless. The Bentley or Rolls Royce of grips if you will.

“What’s New”

     Saguaro Rib grips for the Wild Bunch. That’s right, Saguaro Ribs.  The grain is very unusual and unique. Eighty to two hundred years old from the Arizona deserts. The ribs are stabilized with monomers under 4000 psi. This not only makes them hard, but brings out the depth of the grain. On top of that they feel kind of like bone. Pictures are on the “Rare Woods & Burls” page.
