I do not believe the grips from a ppk/s will fit as they are different widths

For custom grips, do a Google search for Abilene Grip Works.

I have a set of the walnut checkered ones from

Marschalgrips.com

Reasonably priced and took about 2 weeks.

I'd offer to build you some but have no idea exactly when I'll be starting back up. Dennis is a nice guy and does good work from what I hear.

Im_Bryan · 03-06-2008, 09:57 PM

I emailed Dennis because I found a set I like... I just need to know how do I know if I have the extended magazine and if he makes them with the thumb rest...

DocV · 03-12-2008, 08:15 AM

Bryan,

Did you ever hear back from Dennis?

Toolman,

Pleae let me know when you start back up. I'm still interested in doing some grips for my Astra .25. I have an old set now I can send you as templates.

I had emailed about a week ago but havent heard anything back yet at all.... I was woundering if he can make them with the thumb rest. I was also woundering how do I tell if I have the extended magazine? Does the extended magazine have the small little fingure lip??

Thanks

I had no problems ordering from their sites, but I did send an email asking a question about another type of grip that didn't get answered.

I don't know about "extended" mags. All the ones I have seen have a baseplate that is a little longer with a finger rest. My mags are blue and the baseplate is silver. When I ordered I didn't specify extended mags or anything like that.

Hmmm My magazine sounds just like yours.... Havent heard back on if he can make them with the thumb rest or not yet. Ill send him a email again and see if I hear any back..

I had a set made from marshalgrips. The quality is first rate. Only cost $35 shipped for a custom design. It took a little over a month before they arrived.

Direct from Budepest Hungary. I had full length grips made that were thinner than stock in black walnut.

All I can say is they are beautiful! Take a look!

Im_Bryan · 04-01-2008, 06:05 PM

Thanks for the info... Whats there link. I tried searching for it but had no luck..

Thanks again

I think he's referring to the same site Marschalgrips.com

Im_Bryan · 04-01-2008, 06:47 PM

Hi and thanks for the link.... I have emailed this guy twice to see if I can get the smooth purpleheart grip with a thumbrest but never got and answer either way...

DocV · 04-02-2008, 11:03 AM

Bryan,

I ordered a set of walnut grips from the website. The transaction was flawless and I was very pleased with the grips. I then emailed him several times about grips for other pistols and have never gotten a reply.
