Who would want them, worst feeling grip I have ever felt. Maybe 20 years from now when somebody is restoring all the mid-frames I'm ripping them off of these days.
my question was "what's the going rate for take off grips?" not "are these worthless trash" so thanks for your opinions but I believe i'll still offer them up for sale. anybody who looks at the classifieds on a regular basis knows there is a small market for factory grips of all kinds.
have a nice day.
Well, perhaps a little explanation is necessary as you seem to have taken that as a jab.
No where in my post did I say "worthless trash" but I did express a lack of desirability. While you make grips and swapping them out is a small matter for you, you did state you removed them the minute you got the gun. That tells me your impression of the grips.
I have maybe 5 sets in a box . I have not thrown them away cuz I'm a gun part packrat and someday,,,,,maybe someday?????
But truthfully I think their value is in the screw, the escutcheon and the emblem (if it has one).
I also feel if I put 5 sets in a box for sale with free shipping for 100 bucks it would be unanswered for a long time, if ever.
Could you sell a pair ,sure ,,,, maybe , anything is possible . But my gut feeling is as long as Ruger is making these grips and putting them on new guns there will always be free hand-me -downs for anybody looking for a pair.
