American Holly by Private Schultz

I got my American Holly grips in the mail from Private Schultz the other day. What a perfect fitting set of grips. When I was ordering I originally wanted the ivory micarta, but he talked me into the American Holly because of the grain of the wood. Nice grips add so much in the looks of a single action. This gun is in great condition too. It is a pre-warning ban stainless with the magnum cylinder. I love lighter colored grips on stainless too, but that's just personal preference.


American Holly:


Here you can really see the grain of the wood. These will age to a beautiful yellow color I assume...

Beautiful grips.

Beautiful!!!

Those are beautiful and set off that Ruger very nicely!

The grips are beautiful, and the fit impeccable. You did send him your grip frame, right? Very nice!

I'm wondering that too!

Purdy!

Very nice.

Very, very nice!

Yes, I forgot to mention i did send the grip frame. It doesn't bother me to be without the gun for a while, I have others to shoot.

Kevin,
As the others have said, very nice!
I agree that the light-colored grips contrast beautifully with the finish on a blued gun. Obviously, it's all a matter of personal preference.
Thanks for posting!

I have several grips he made for me that I really treasure. I did not send my grip frames in, and still the fit was very good.

Thanks for sharing Kevin. I like holly.

American Holly now 10 years old. Looking better with age.

I like how the wood has taken-on a somewhat antique color. And, that 4-digit flattop is a thing of beauty, too!
