Come Into Bawanna's Famous Grip Emporium

[Bawanna]

JohnH I'm sure can attest to this but they are smooth as a babies backside. We're talking glass smooth. A couple times I've panicked on mine thinking I saw a crack but it was just that wild grain pattern.
They are very very smooth.

I'm usually a checker till your hand bleeds guy but after making Johnh's who wanted smooth I found that with the front strap checkering I didn't need checkering on the grip for a good solid hold.

This stuff will checker but it will be a long hard row to hoe I fear. I did a little section, it'll be nice but slow and hard on cutters I think.

[Bawanna]

Could happen. I don't mean to be paranoid but I just gave a narcotics dog a bite of my sandwich. (mad as she is she still made a lunch?) I'll watch the dog for a bit and look for ill effects.

Man shouldn't have to walk around on egg shells in his own castle.

Bawanna', your grips look like something from the Hubble Telescope photos of nebulae or whatever. It even looks like a few alien faces peering out at us! COOL!

I think my K9 grips are perfect... the factory ones, but I'm close to ordering Laser Grips (LG460) from the Gun Source for $245.99 plus $4.99 shipping for the whole order. That $50 CT coupon offer may be too hard to pass up. New Trijicons and now LGs??

You don't carry your K9 much but it would be a good training aid and I know you keep it handy for a shower gun or someplace handy.

I have a set on the wifes 22 SP101. They are nice. Spendy things but nice.

I've toyed with the idea of the CT's on my PM45 but just don't want to give up the holsters I have and the XS sights work dandy for me.

When you look really close you see all kinds of odd things in those grips.

[wyntrout]

I see "E.T.", a "Gray", and if I let my wild imagination go... b00bies and all manner of things!!

Just below the center b00bie is a hand with a ring on the index finger... left hand... spooky!! And, there seems to be a snake with that hand coming from the rear of its head... wild grip material!

I went ahead and ordered those LGs and a Galco IWB holster for the K9 with a retention strap.

I don't know if there's an LG that will fit the SA Champion... that would be a great setup.

I didn't ask Wifey, but then I rarely do for such "minor" purchases.

[Bawanna]

I kind of see it too. I also see a bunch of husbands faces looking up from a boiling caldron, begging, let me go, let me go, take the insurance money.

Bury me with my toys. You can have the Beagle. Wow, my minds obviously running amuck.

Maybe I could peddle those to shrinks. Look at this and tell me what you see.
I see ******* and ring fingers. Who can say who's right and whos deranged.

I look around me and I see dumb people and they work here and they don't even know they are dumb.

Oh the nurse is here to take me back to my room. Thank goodness for all the padding, really adds to the acoustics for sound quality. Not worth beans for banging your head against the wall.....................

[wyntrout]

Yeah... the tell me what you see deal could fill books... some people are tripping or have really weird imaginations.... I know that I'm not the only one.

Woo Hoo! The Anchor grips look great. Can't wait to get them.

Wynn's gotten into the liquor cabinet again. I don't see no booobies, nor a "Gray" whatever that is. I could possibly make out a ring on an index finger. As for the snake, well...maybe I need a few more to start things "straight". Great work again on the grips, they sure do look pretty. My wife's not a big fan of the black and gold, but because she's not a shooter yet, her opinion does not count. Coming, dear.

Hey! NOW I have. I just had sardines, crackers, olives, and cheese... with my wine... Yellow Tail Merlot... Consumer Reports # 1 "inexpensive" Merlot. It's my "staple" wine... for everyday use since I first tried it in 2004 at my 40th H.S. Class Reunion. It's time to go to Total Wine and resupply. I'm down to only two 1.5-liter bottles. My wife has eleven + bottles of her staple... Inglenook Cabernet Sauvignon... 1.5-liter bottles. She drinks a lot more than I do. After her job she needs a little help winding down. She goes through a 1.5-liter bottle about every 2 1/2 days! I just have a little with dinner or SUPPER, as we used to say in the South.

Makes me want to fall on my sword. I'll seek out some other varieties of wood and see if we can't please the missus. (like that's possible on a regular basis.)

Did she like the red stuff that cracked? Maybe it would remind her of her mood when she's angry, ya know seeing red and all.

I'm taking this on as personal challenge. Mrs MikeyKahr can be pleased and I won't rest until that happens.

[Bawanna]

Woo Hoo! The Anchor grips look great. Can't wait to get them.

I can't wait to send them but sadly it's gonna be a few more days. Need a few more passes over the checkering and off they go.

[MikeyKahr]

Sawdust City?

Bawanna, you got a bunch of sawdust in your hair? I have a feeling that you've been sanding and whittling a bit this fair evening. Much better than what I've been doing.

And don't you go falling on your sword trying to please my missus, my friend. About the best thing you could do to get in her good graces is to relieve me of my Kahrfever - and you don't want to go doing that now, do you?

But you may be onto something. Maybe she's bored and sick of me shooting and polishing up my lonely piece of tupperware. Maybe she'd be a lot more happy if I invested in some nice, shiny wood and steel to play with? Plus night sights, she would really dig night sights. Hey, a guy can dream, right?

Speaking of which, o guru of giant sequoias, has anyone been crazy enough to make night sights out of metal instead of tupperware? Or is this an example of me just thinking crazy thoughts while I'm visiting my local candy store? I was fondling and playing with some beautiful 1911s over the weekend (sorry sweetie) and I couldn't help but think why would someone want to put plastic on such a beautiful piece of steel and wood if something nicer was available? I know, I know - it's cost effective. And probably a whole lot easier to put on. But wouldn't it be nice to have some matching steel sights (if possible) on some of the higher end guns? Maybe with a super narrow thin-film coating so they can be placed and sighted in nicely without damaging anything. Has that already been thought of and done and I just am such a newb and infant to all of this and haven't been seasoned enough to see it? Let me get back inside my cave now.
