Pistol Grips

There are many different pistol accessories on the market these days, but one of the most distinctive features of any gun is the grip; and there are many kinds available. Choosing the right grip is key, and what you select will depend on the material as well as the type of look you are going for.

Grips come in many different patterns and materials. There are stag and imitation stag grips that lend an "old-west" feel to the gun. You can also find a variety of different wood grips if you like the traditional look. Those who prefer something more modern may want to opt for a rubber grip or have a custom design created. There are also grips that simulate pearl and ivory, and some that are made out of metals such as pewter.

Each grip will give the gun a distinctive look and feel. Color is another factor you may want to consider when making your choice; you can find everything from a traditional black to bright red and blue. You will also want to think about what type of use the gun will have and make sure you select a material that is durable as well as attractive.
