Grips for 58 Remie Uberti

[Ben McCulloch]

Can anyone recommend websites that have grips available for the Uberti 58s? I have a pair of the gated factory conversions and am wondering what my options are for grips. Thanks.

Gripmaker. His grips are virtually indestructable. They age like real ivory or stag. Look good, too.

Here are the ones on mine:

Another option is to sand the plasticky finish off the factory grips and redo them in boiled linseed oil. As they age with handling they will look really nice. If you were going to toss the factory grips anyway, it only takes a few minutes to do and see if you like how they come out or not.


Go easy on sanding the edges if you try it or they won't fit well any more.

I used paint stripper on a pair of mine, then started in with the linseed oil. You're right, they came out really nice.

regular rubbing with Ballistol when cleaning the rest of the gun helps as well.

Thanks everyone. I sent a note to Gripmaker asking what designs he had that would fit 58 Remmies.
