10m pistol

If it's any comfort to you, your old Steyr is being used 4 times a week.

I’m really glad it’s working well for you.

I regretted selling you that as soon as you drove away

The search for RH grips looks like I’m at a dead end, Diana not interested, even Rink wouldn’t consider it.

I’m reduced to whipping out my penknife and whittling my own.

Thanks Chris

I’ve been talking with a couple of 3D printing outfits, one was willing to have a go but the cost, after laser scanning, programming and printing was prohibitive.

...and they’re not visually appealing to me.

Having handled 3D printed stuff before i can’t see it feeling wonderful in the hand either.

Thanks for the suggestion though.

Screech of tyres and smell of rubber and exhaust.

After no joy with the search for new grips I’ve made a set.

First outing with the Mod 10 this evening and it’s not too shabby.

I’m out of practice though...

Cheers, it was a nice challenge. The mirroring thing was a mind bender at times.

Funny thing is, now I’ve made this set I feel like I’ve just got my head around the process and I want to do another, bearing in mind the lessons learned from this. I’d probably change the order of operations slightly etc.

If I come across a nice piece of figured walnut I’ll probably be tempted.

Grips look as if they were made professionally. Are you taking orders?
