They turned out great, love that pattern in them. If that was mine i would put a black and gray tiger in the split grip area to blend in with the grips.

Steve,


That's exactly what will be happening. It's still a work in progress. I wrapped the base layer of black and silver today and put on the first coat of CP. This build is a little more showy than my personal arsenal.

Hi Joe,
That looks very neat and the tiger wrap will only make it look better. Nice job.
