Great grips. Virtually indestructible. Good man to deal with.

I wonder if his grip material is similar to Buffalo Brothers' stuff. I think they use Urethane as well.

I'm thinking of trying http://www.inventorscolony.com/collinscraftgrips/
I've heard he's good with custom fitting.

I think the Gripmaker grips are stronger than anything out there. I know mine have taken a lot of beating and never shown any signs of stress or failure. I've broken a lot of other kinds of grips, but not one of his. They also yellow with age, like real ivory or stag.

I'll have to agree with Will and Trap.  I have a pair of Gripmakers grips and they are very high quality.  And Larry(aka Gripmaker) is a great guy to deal with and very helpful.

Hmm ... maybe I should try 'em. Are they as fat as stock Italian grips? Thinner?

[Marshal Will Wingam]

They're a little fat, but all you need to do is shape them down and they are fine. Larry (Gripmaker) can tell you some tips on how to fit them. It's not too hard, I've done a few pairs of them, now. I think he may even do it for you but you can ask him that. Be sure to post pics when they're done.
