I recently received some unique revolver grips
from Cary Chapman at CLC Custom Grips in Nuevo,
California. These grips are like none that I have seen before.
The design is what Cary calls his CVC Gunfighter grips. The
grips are for single action revolvers, and are cut thinner
through the middle for a better grip on the sixgun. The set
that I tried was for a Ruger Blackhawk, and really give
the gun a unique feel. Cary can make these thinner or thicker,
as the customer may desire. He also will make them without a
beveled bottom, and he has many different woods from which to
choose. The set that he sent to me is made from a gorgeous
wood called Spalted Karilian Birch, that Cary has stabilized,
which involves impregnating the pores of the wood with
acrylic, resulting in a very durable and beautiful product.
The grips fit perfectly on a Ruger Blackhawk and on the Baby
Vaquero as shown in the pictures. He also sent a set for a
Super Blackhawk that were made from the same material, and are
shown as well. The pictures really tell about the grips better
than words.
