    GP100 Grips?

    Anyone know of a custom grip maker who makes a smooth wood grip for a GP100?

    Hogue makes a smooth wood grip with the finger grooves. Or do you mean like the old factory grip but solid wood, not just the inserts?

    Beat profusely with hammer until functional.

    I had trouble with Hogue wood grips for the BFR. It would always come loose. Then it split at the screw. When I phoned Hogue, they said "Sorry, pal. It's yours. Bye." Rich company acted stingy and kept the money while poor guy who paid $90 for their product ending up the loser and needing to buy another set of grips so he can keep shooting.

    I had a set of Hogue wood grips that shattered to pieces on a SBH, however I use them on the GP100 and they are terrific.
    They are finger grooved, but I believe they make them without too. I would like to try a grip from Herrett with a more filling backstrap area, they will custom make them for you with a hand drawing. I much like the Herrett stocks on the Blackhawks and Super Blackhawks, I hate rubber grips, they just don't work for me.
