Need to find

I am looking for a pistol grip assembly, like one found on a cheap discount rod. I have a customer that want to have his sons pole fixed as a sentimental thing and the pistol grip was broken right at the reel hold down clamp. The grip I was told was rubber material and the rest plastic? Where can I find something like this?

Thanks!
Scott

I can think of two options.

1) Find a donor rod and remove and reuse the grip.

2) [www.mudhole.com] and spray bed liner / rocker panel paint on it.

Check the big internet @#$%& site - @#$%&.

Do a search under cork handle. There are several handles like the one that you are looking for at a reasonable price.

Good luck
Roger
