Recently, I sold 2 and bought 3. My wife may get a little perturbed at me for buying gun stuff on occasion, but not too often.

That looks tasty. Congrats Grand-Dad 🙂 My Sunday looks like an indoors day. It is muggier than hell outside today. Weird.

@Rye Miles #13621 When you click on an Instagram link and the first page appears look for a note that says “Continue on Web”. On my iPhone it appears in the upper right corner. Click on that and the video should appear. If there is no audio click on the video itself and the audio should work.

Very nice. Thanks Brock.

Thank you. 😎

I have never heard the term “trigger puller”. Sounds like a stupid term to me and just more buzz words that the crapbag Commies can add to their repertoire of dumbassery

Congratulations! 😎

Very nice! I have an M11-A1. I didn’t know they came in other colors besides black. Yours looks great. Did yours come with the polymer grips and if so do the Hogue panels change the girth or size of the grip?

Since you asked specifically about those 2 companies I have gotten some really great looking and functional grip panels from Altamont. And to be fair. I haven’t bought any Hogue wood grips, but they look nice online and on other people’s guns that I have seen. BUT, I do have hesitation in telling you to go with Altamont. The reason is because during and after Covid it seems to have lost their QA technical expertise and their customer service went to crap in regards to Ruger Vaquero / Blackhawk and Ruger New Vaquero grips. (I can feel my blood pressure going up) Long story, short. I ordered grips. Grips took a long time coming. Grips didn’t fit worth a darn. Grips went back. New grips came. Crap fit, just like the last ones. Grips went back. New grips arrived in wrong color and still crappy fit. Heated phone calls ensued. Grips returned. Reimbursement took weeks. 😡 In the past I have purchased S&W revolver grips, Ruger revolver grips and 1911 panels from Altamont and I was so pleased and impressed with their products, but now I am leery. SO, here is my recommendation. If you really like a grip they offer, buy it, but if there are any issues at all, don’t mess with them. Just send them back and get your money back and go with Hogue. I have encountered others that have purchased Altamont grips since my fiasco and they were very happy with their purchase, but these grips were not for Ruger SA revolvers. Here are some images of what I was dealing with regarding Altamont. I keep them in a folder with a name similar to “Altamont Muck UPS”. 7 of 17 photos I am not posting these to gripe and whine about Altamont. I am posting to make you aware. I truly hope my experience was a fluke. Altamont had always been a wonderful company to deal with in the past.

I do not answer my phone unless the number is in my contacts. If a name comes up from my contacts, I answer. If it is just a number I let it go to voicemail. I don’t care if I am expecting a call. They can leave a message and I will call back. Recently (2 months ago) I bought some vitamin supplements online. Apparently this was the cause of a bunch of new texts trying to get me to respond. I report them as Spam and delete them. Those have finally stopped. The company that sold me the supplements obviously sold my info, or one of their employees did. That will be the last thing I ever buy from them.
