Default Got my new grips today

My Cell Phone Camera does not do these justice.





Bubinga Exotic Wood Grips from Raasco. Very Satisfied. The grip you see online with the exotic series is what you get and the pictures both online and with my Camera do not do these grips justice when you can see them in person and the light hits them.

I have 3 sets of Raasco grips and really like them...I have two on Combat Commanders and a new set on my Para Carry C6.45LDA. Fit and finish are above super.

Well had to do a little fitting on both sides of the grips on top so the safety would work but a little filing and finishing on the tops and all works well.

Great looking grips. Love the grain, of coarse I like all wood grain. Congrats on your new grips.
