Very neat - be great if we get to live long enough to see the Ivory yellow some w/age....................... (sigh) :roll:

I'd be tempted to scrim (have it done, actually) something (Initials, maybe) into the grip panel's bottom bevel/flat. 8)

The 44 Special had everything. Only part missing was the Ivory.
Jim and his daughter run a class operation.

I have a 2011 production Colt New Frontier. My next grip project will be one piece Ivory and initials.

My photos are not too good but here is a full revolver shot.

"Agree" Jim did both of my Colt's.
Unfortunately I could not get the one-piece grips
for the Colt New Frontier .22 / .22 mag.
