Flaco Joe Posted September 7, 2021 Share Posted September 7, 2021 I’m looking for a set of thinner grips for an old model Vaquero. I want some that are thinner so more closely feel like original Colts. The factory set I have extent beyond the frame, and I’d like something that is a bit closer fitting for a slimmer grip profile. I’d really like some stag grips, but I’m also interested in some checkered wood panels. What can y’all suggest for grip retailers/makers?

Will Kane Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 You might consider Texas Grips in Corpus Christi, TX. He made me some very nice checkered mesquite wood gunfighter extended grips for some OM Vaqueros. https://texasgrips.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boulder Canyon Bob# 32052L Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Had these guys make me 2 pair of their Magna-tusk thin aged ivory for my wife's Ruger 32's. They are VERY nice. https://www.ebay.com/str/arizonacustomgrips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Shapiro Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Guess I'm a little odd. I make my own when I need a set. It's not particularly difficult. There are few key fit spots though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot, SASS #13748 Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 Altamont hasn’t had the original Vaquero “Slim” grips in over 3 years now. They stopped making them sometime in 2017 and sold off what they had. Since the CoVid silliness they have had 6 to 8 week delays and it seems they haven’t replenished any of their stock in some time.
