I have a question . If you decide to remove them , does it leave wear marks on the grips and gun frame ?

Never have on mine.

Nacho Man · June 13, 2014, 12:00 AM

It wont leave a mark. The thin strip that fits under the grips to hold it in place is like a soft flexible copper. I ordered one in 2011, and got it in 2 weeks.

JimmyR · June 13, 2014, 12:47 AM

I ordered mine a few weeks ago, and the check got cashed on 5/27. I'm ordering 2, but hope to see them in the mail soon.

Okay, bamaranger. A pic I promised, and a pic I will give.

I must say I really like the way it fits my hand. Now in addition to looking like business, it really FEELS like business. As a heavy, large framed .357 should.

One of these days, I'm going to get to shoot it again.

publius · June 14, 2014, 10:55 PM

What's the purpose of them? Does it just make the grip bigger?

skoro · June 15, 2014, 06:47 AM

The T-grip fills the hand very well and improves control. When coupled with the std Magna stocks, it makes for a much more comfortable hold, too.

9mm,
NICE MKVII!!!!!

Got a minty 1941 here in the office.

9mmfan · June 15, 2014, 02:55 PM

Thanks. I will humbly admit that it's a reproduction from What Price, Glory. Perfect size to use as a backdrop for handgun pics I've found. Also useful for hauling stuff around.

DPris · June 15, 2014, 03:23 PM

The repro giveaway was the string disc.
Didn't want to embarrass you in public by saying anything.

Still nice, looks pretty good otherwise.

So I called to get an update on my order. I talked to JR, the founder's son who has taken over the entire business. We talked for awhile about my order, and life in general. Apparently there were a pair of family deaths (one expected, one unexpected) that has kind turned his family life upside down. Good news is, my order should be mailed out in a few days. I also found out that JR is a stand up guy and has a 5 year plan to build inventory and make ordering easier.

DPris · June 16, 2014, 12:41 PM

I'm hoping they're keeping up with orders.
Sent an MO for an adaptor for a Colt Official Police a couple weeks back.

Sounds like a family business that got hit by a lot. I've been a part of a family business, and it can really set things back when a family tragedy happens. I'm giving the readers digest version, the full version gets even more complicated.

9mmfan

Thanks for the pic. I'm thinking that is the polished black version?

I see your Smith has the full size grip. I have the skimpy service grip on mine.

For 25.00 bucks or so the T-grip should yield big benefit.

9mmfan · June 17, 2014, 01:37 PM

Yessir, that is polished black. In retrospect, I should have gone with the flat black though it doesn't really bother me that much. Feel in the hand is night and day.

JimmyR · July 7, 2014, 02:30 PM

So I still haven't gotten my order that, as of 6/16, was supposed to be in thef mail "in a few days." I've called multiple times, left multiple voice mail messages, and gotten nowhere. Needless to say, I'm not happy. I'm very doubtful that I'll be ordering from Tyler again.

JimmyR · July 9, 2014, 05:59 AM

So the same day I send a rather curt letter, I get my t-grips in the mail.

Date of order: 5/23/14
Date check cleared: 5/27
Date of arrival: 7/8/2014
41 days from check ckearing until my door.

ETA: Pics!

redrick · July 10, 2014, 03:34 PM

Jimmy , how do you like them ?

JimmyR · July 11, 2014, 12:41 AM

So far, I really like them. The model 19 belongs to the missus, and she preferred that to the target grips that I had on there previously. I'm planning on hitting the gun range on Monday, and I will find out just how much I like them then.

skoro · July 11, 2014, 09:16 AM

I think you'll be pleased. They really make for a much better hold in my experience.

redrick · July 11, 2014, 04:34 PM

Thanks , and get back with us after the range trip .
