    Custom wooden grips

    Andy is an outstanding craftsman, but he does not make grips for guns for which he does not have a "model" to work from. The Schofield air pistol grips are quite different from the Uberti grips in the way they attach to the gun. There is a lot going on under the grips in the air pistol version that is not happening in the powder-burner. To my knowledge, the only optional grips are the faux ivory.

    I found out about the above when I asked Andy to make me some wood grips for one of my Crosman 600's, and had to send him one as a pattern.
    It was an expensive exercise with additional postage costs, but the end result was superb, and to my mind, well worth the additional expense.
    I know Andy has patterns for most Webley air pistols, but don't know what others he can do.

    That I can understand. I design 3D products, often adaptors for other things, and I get a lot of request for things that I do own. Even with dimensions, unless it's a very simple object, it can be extremely hard to get things just right if you don't have the prototype in front of you.
