Daisy New lefty grip for 777
- Thread starter graycrait
- Start date
Those grips have been on the free 3D sites since 2017. My 3D printing friend made them for me. They have to be fitted as they aren't perfect and the wrong 3D material can make fitment problematic.

WOW i thought they laminated wood i should have dropped the pictures into my computer
yes 700 series pistols have simple grips but they have their own nuances to make them fit correctly
well, if you and he work out the perfect grip there is a market for Lefts and of course right-hand grips
i had a bad habit of buying VA grips when i saw them i have lots too many
here is a Rosewood beautiful wood
and i walnut that has a black lam on the back and a couple just plain walnut
just for show and tell
i would like to see those grips of yours in black and red
in any case i do like them

I'm going to guess the market for Lefty Daisy 7xx grips is pretty small or someone would have taken what is out there on Yeggi,etc and improved on it

the secondhand market for the 7-7 pistols could be bigger if there were lefthand grips
the story i was told from Daisy is, they had a fire and the molds for the left the hand grips were destroyed and they decided not to remake them and as such the lefthand shooter were left out of the mix
and now that AV has stopped making grips there are few sources i believe Precision makes them but their let say are ugly
is there a market, maybe a small one but if you had the righthand to go with the left that would change things
the bottom line is there would be little profit in it, as with all the cottage businesses that made parts for the 2240 they did it for us more than the money, at least that is my opinion

The issue is that the Yeggi design can't be easily manipulated and it was made using 3D scanner with ensuing image flipped/mirrored. I talked to my 3D buddy and he understands what I had to do to fit the slabs. He may have a solution that when he has time he might make another set of grips for me. He doesn't have a Daisy 7XX series pistol. Neither of us believes there is a reason to pursue this with a lot of passion as to the low market possibilities.

oh i understand but we have this see and want one brain cell, note cell was not plural
well in all honesty the factory grips never were that stable i always shimmed the frame
i would and still do use motorcycle name plate material
it is black in color and has adhesive on one side
well good luck with the grips
