mustang grips??

Spartacus

still trying to find the best looking grips for the mustang pocketlite.
tried white pearl, black pearl, ivory (fake) and of course the original black, but no joy.
I kinda like these, but its still not right.
anyone have pics and/or a link to grips you think would look good?
thanks!

Hey Tom!

Coincidentally, just today I installed a brand new set of American elk's from Eagle onto my Colt Government Model .380:

They look marvelous!

hey Jorge,
thanks for that link!
they have some nice stuff.
i looked at the mustang grips and saw some colt SAA grips I "need".
I'll call them tomorrow and ask for pics of the current elk material they have.

careful david, the mustang grips have a cutout for left side thimb safety.
also, if you have the pony pocketlite, the grip screw bushings protrude from the frame, requiring reliefs on the back of the grips.

I went to the site, and they have grips for the Mustang, but not the Pony.

I was of the opinion that all I would have to do to make them work on my Pony is file a slot for the drawbar. I could be wrong.

david,
here's some factory mustang grips. see the cut back for the left side safety. also, the pony grips are about an 1/8" wider overall (more at the upper right.
the grip screw placement is the same on both, so you could mount mustang grips on a pony, but I don't think it would look good.
I bet oldmagic could make you a set for your little colt. send him your grips for a pattern.

I like the grips you have on now but the elk would look awesome. I have some Moose antlers that I'd be willing to donate to someone who knows how to carve grips if they would make me a set for my Llama 1911 and they would have more than enough for a set for themselves.
