Lasergraphic grip engraving

[Irish Red O'Toole]

I sent Tom at Lasergraphic in Florida the two pairs of grips off of my match pair of stainless Ruger Vaqueros.  I just wanted some checkering, the W3G logo, and maybe my alias on them.  I also thought both pair of grips were just plain-jane Ajax Polymer Bufalo Horn.  Tom gets them and sends me an email that one pair was true Buffalo Horn (worth double what I paid for it!!).  He also says he can do a beautiful job on true Buffalo Horn.  So, I let him commence to carving and the results are very striking.  The regular polymer grips look great too.  So, if you need grips done, Lasergraphic is the one place I'd highly recommend.

Tell me what you think:

I am continually impressed with the Lasergraphics work that I see. So much of the stuff they turn out would have been either impossible or prohibitively expensive using manual methods.

IROT, is there any engraving on the guns these grips go on?

[Irish Red O'Toole]

Not yet, Book.  I'm just waiting for an engraver to set up shop at the next big match I attend.  Then I can prettify them.

Gotta do SOMETHIN' to mate up with those pretty grips.

I am shooting a pair of Blackhawks. Started out with a Bisley, borrowed the first Blackhawk, and finally just bought the second one. First order of business will be gettin' the two of them to shoot more or less alike. The new one is really stiff! I figure a set of Wolff springs oughta make them both better.

If I manage to accumulate any money for decoration, I'd like to replace the cast aluminum grips and ejector housings first off. Somewhere I heard that you could get fixed rear sights to replace the factory adjustable ones, and that's be nice. The Blackhawk is a good, inexpensive, reliable sixgun, but not much to look at, IMO.
