Had to get out the Dremel!!

[jonnyl]

I ordered some new wood grips for my MK9. I was really excited, until I tried to simply pop them on. I had to get out the most feared of gunsmithing tools and expand a cutout on the inside of each grip a little bit. It went pretty smoothly and I really like the grips much better than the hard plastic one. These are a little wider, but I think they'll give my hands a little more to hold on to.

Very nice.

I think they compliment your weapon.

Nice grips.

Good looking grips. Classier than plastic, IMHO.

 

[Lostfantum]

Nice set of grips, really improves the look of it.

Oooo purty. With a little care a dremmel can save many hours and thousands of dollars getting somebody else to fix your crap.

I am a firm believer in the Dremmel. Thoe grips look great on there.

Looks good. Whatever you did worked great!

Gorgeous. The MK9 is one of my favorites - don't have one yet (got the K9 first), but hope to soon. . . yours looks great.

By the way, I have the smooth wood grips on my K9, I think you made a good choice going with the stippled, as mine are a bit slippery.

The K9 looks great! I considered the smooth ones, but since the short grip is a little flippy when shooting I figured the checked would give a little more hold.

Also, your very beautiful new grips are a testament to your commendable self control with the dremel - I completely lost my head, sanded the Shi-ite out of mine and them stained them with india ink.
Fascinating experiment, that last part, but still - kudos to you!

Nice looking weapon!

Oooo, nice use of available natural light.

There's a kahr in my future...nice guns.

 

[jimsoden]

Wow, nice looking wood grain. I like the checkering pattern. Kind of flows well with form of the gun.

I think I might have to take a look at Kahr's line up!
