Default New Grips Ivory Inlaid Scrimshaw

Figured I'd post'em up here too. Scrimshaw done by Becky Wilson on Ivory inlaid in heartwood cocobolo. Now I just need something to put'em on, ...... what a predicament Also included a pic of a cougar that I'm considering buying, also done by Ms Wilson.

as of Nov 15, I've listed them in the WTT section; got enough guns, figure I'd better put some investment into the wonderful shooting partner that I've got in my life now.

The inlaid grips would look mighty good on my new EMP.

Check the size of those EMP grips. Mine are smaller than regular 1911 grips....
