New grip for the leshiy 2

[Glem.Chally]

Made by a local guy, it's black walnut came natural this is after one light coat of boiled linseed oil.

BIG improvement over the tiny stock grip. PM me if you'd like Tommy's email, also makes grips for the PP700 that can be seen on airgunarcheryfun.ca

Don't pretty much all AR-15 grips fit the Leshiy 2?

Other than the stock grips I have the Valkyrie micarta grips. I'm a big fan of them -- with the small toolkit hide. Very handy.

If I wanted overpriced and off the shelf I would have gone that route

Not much selection of solid wood non-beavertail AR grips. I've looked.

The MDT grips are pretty nice. It's maybe something to consider.

I have an MDT chassis on my deer rifle, and it has the carbon-fibre version of these. These are also quite light -- 2.3oz. The carbon-fibre version is 0.96oz.

Looks like Tommy has a talent for wood work. I made one for my Impact along with the cheek rest and butt pad and I can attest to how much effort and patience it takes. I had a slight error on the butt pad as you can see.

Looks like the volk grip. Very nice work.

I like the walnut natural color and texture, unfortunately working just anything with wood I am an absolute anti-talent.

Yes as I'd said before that looks really good on the L2. Definitely contacting this guy for my PP700's and was thinking a grip for the standard HW45 as well.

Wow, those finger slots look like the were done by a person with 100 ton grip strength squeezing that wood !

I like the exact, fitted application better.

They were made like that! Haha

Myself I prefer the feel and workability of solid wood. I took a little barrel sander on a dremel and tapered the finger grooves out a bit. Perfect fit for me now. Everyone's got preferences, I'm showing mine.

This just wasn't obvious in the original post. It sounded like it is just a purchased part.

Don't get me wrong, as you say, a hand fitting, is a hand fitting, no matter how it's accomplished.
No matter if you squeeze it to shape or hand sand it into shape, as long as it's comfortable.

Yeah no they're made by a local guy that does this is a hobby, he's gonna make a couple for some impacts. Looking forward to that.

I've had one of his grips on my pp700 and love it.

 

[coffeepan]

That is very nice looking grip.

Grip looks great! looks very comfy!

 

[Glem.Chally]

That's for the kind words gents, I'll pass them along to Tommy. I'll show the Impact grip once it's ready.

 

[officerbogus]

Grip looks great to me, love the contours!

 

[Ranchibi]

Glem, that is one gorgeous and comfy looking grip! Your friend has mad wood working skills! The linseed oil really makes the grain pop without being too glossy.

MDT is down the street from me. Thought you would appreciate this.
