This pictures of mine don't do it justice. But here it is anyway. This is an X-Five Tactical early version. The magwell was installed after the purchase. It is the best shooting and handling firearm I own.   |

| Cool! I was able to find a set of black Nills for my Allround They cost $25 more than the regular Nills. I don't know how long they were produced.

Thanks .
Not without a bit of modification if you're planning on keeping the magwell funnel on the gun. For kicks I bought a set to try and found that right out of its pouch the grip panels wouldn't seat correctly towards the heel end. There is a rear tab on the slide-on funnel that is wide to the point that it prevents both grips from seating properly. No funnel, the grips fit on the frame just fine. Since the price of the grips is dirt cheap, a little mod won't hurt things. All it takes is a sharp utility knife to cut away a small chunk of the interior walnut from each grip to accommodate the width of that tab on the funnel. A simple dry-fit will illustrate just how much of a mod that needs to be made.

| Is there a reason these grips are so cheap? They’re the factory part, not aftermarket, right?

How dare you take a pic of that gorgeous gun in a holster to cover it's beauty.  My favorite line by Sig is their Equinox line. Those grips look great. |

| Well, I’ll say they are a little more slippery than the stock plastic. I have not handled the G10 grips yet. |
