Ken- does your email filter out emails from Gmail.com? I've emailed you a couple of times in the past and emailed you yesterday, but have never heard back. I'm just wondering if my emails are making it through. I asked aobut recheckering P220c grips.
Thanks-

Thank you very much!

These look very cool!

I think a set of smooth grips for my P228 owuld look great, but with a checkered backstrap.

Just thinking out loud.....

Great work!

I have a set for my 226 and they feel great. I'm all in on the p6 grips. Bump for a great product

Update;

I am expecting to get progress information on Friday as to how we are coming with the design and what a production date looks like. Early this week they were hot on it, so I know it is getting closer.

If you want to get in on the first production run, get your order in soon. As soon as I have a sample in hand, I will post an image right here for you to see.

Will follow-up shortly.

Not at this time Maybe in the future!!!

Latest update as of 7-18-08

As suspected and partly anticipated, response from this offer flared up so that it is looking like in about 30 days +- a few day for finish P225 Extreme grips.

As soon as I can get a sample in hand it will be posted here for all to see.

We thank you for your patience!

Hi Ken,

I was wondering once you get everything set up for the P6 grips if it would be possible for me to send you a piece of wood and have you cut grips out of it? If you let me know what dimensions you start off with I can make sure that the blocks I send are the same. I was thinking about cocobolo or some other hard wood.

Looking forward to seeing the mock-up!

The Hogue Extreme Aluminum grips are a great product. I've had a set for several months on my P239 and they are perfect in fit, feel and appearance. I have two other Sigs and am considering buying more of these Hogue Aluminums.

I'm sure the new P225 grips will be a big success. Here is my P239 with the Hogue grips:

Will all colors be available? What about the hybrid? These will look great on my 225!

Damn, I just ordered Marchall grips for my P6. I guess I'll have to buy another p6 for the Extremes.

reelay;

At this time I will not be able to cut the wood grips. We are working towards this but at this time we are unable. Once we are able I will most definatly post this arrivial here on the forum. (I am not welcome to cut wood on the metal cutting machines due to the saw dust issue)

Lord Vaalic;

hybrids are not available in anything but the 1911's. Sorry.
Yes, all current colors will be available.

Again, the 10% discount, off retail is available on orders receive thru 9-1-08 on the Extreme 225 grips. To take advantage of this offer besure to get your order(s) in by then.

A little off topic, but may I ask what software you guys use to model the grips? I'm an AutoCAD operator and I'm always interested in other programs.
