Hey Keg,
Custom grips used to be a lot more popular than they are now. At most major Texas shoots, there would be someone taking orders for grip caps. In those days they were usually silver and/or gold, I don't have a clue about stainless. If anyone knows, it's Skeet's master of trivia and world champion, Robert Paxton, of Paxton Arms. He's close to you, up in Richardson (214)651-9018.

Brownell's sells blank caps that you can have engraved, plated, etc.

Dang Jerry, You got me wantin' somethin' really bad that I didn't even know existed!

Now the question, will gold or silver look better on the black semi gloss (and well scratched, nicked and chipped birch showing much white wood) Mossberg 500 stock!

Bling-tastic!

Got this one on a Browning Superposed Pigeon Grade.....not sure where the previous owner found it. Thought it added a little more class.
