I know I have seen these on here before but there are so many GP treads I couldn't find it in the search.

I would really like to have a set but a picture will do if I can't get anything else.

Thanks,

To be a bit more clear.

These are not the rubber and wood grips the older GP's came with as stock but a factory option. All wood with a ruger emblem.

Hi hittman,
Those are just wood hogue. I'm looking for the Ruger branded (metal emblem installed) factory option grip. I think there is a small pic in the 1996 catalog. You could buy them as an option, The part number was simply "WG" for "Wood Grip" I think??

I have a box full of those, new and unused. Ruger item WG. Great grips that many do not have. I am in the process of moving and they are packed. I'll post pictures in a month when I am moved. Many have outstanding wood grains. They are shown in many of the Ruger catalogs from 1986- the late 90's. MUCH nicer than those silly over-sized Hogues!

These Lett wood grips look like the original Wood grips.

Those Lett's wood grips ARE the original GP100 wood grip option WG. There was no other supplier of item WG other than Lett Mfg.

I too would be interested in knowing how much you need for a set.

A BOX OF THEM! Hopefully it is a big box with a small price tag. Please let us know for sure.

Thanks for the pictures as well.

Eagle Grips has a GP-100 grip that is similar but a little more sculptured.
