RE: [DAN WESSON] Dan Wesson U.S. Constitution Bicentennial 44 Mag

Jim,
Hogue had these white grips (I believe Micarta) that might work. I have not
had success sending pics to the forum so I am attaching a link to a forum
where I posted the picture.

Subject: [DAN WESSON] Dan Wesson U.S. Constitution Bicentennial 44 Mag


Greetings all!

I am new to this group. I have just purchased a Dan Wesson
Commemorative U. S. Constitution Bicentennial 44 Mag with a blued
finish.

When it arrived from the seller, the faux ivory (plastic) grip was
broken in two. I love the gun and have no intention of giving it up,
but now I am on a mission of trying to replace that special grip.

I called the factory in hopes that they would have a box of 'em laying
around on some dusty shelf. No such luck.

Sooo... any good ideas? Any chance of finding a replacement out there
somewhere? Or what about finding a maker of replacement grips that may
make a replacement for me? Or maybe a supplier that would have faux
ivory grip that could be used for replacement? Or maybe some custom
shop that would make a custom grip, worthy of the gun?

Thanks for your help...
Jim

Thanks Doug! I just gave Hogue a call and jumped on their web site. They have a great selection of wooden grips, but nothing in an "ivory-like" grip. I may...

Hi Robert, Thanks for your reply. I emailed Collins Grips and got a reply from "Don" who said he no longer makes new grips for Dan Wessons. Drat! I'm still...

Jim, If you ask them to make you one in the Ivory Micarta I would think they would be accommodating. I know where you can get the material if they don't have...
