What's Wrong With This Picture?


The rivalry between our machinists has reached a fevered pitch here at X-Calibergrips. The latest challenge – who can fabricate a set of grips to the tightest tolerances. Machine Operator 3 pulled out all the stops on this one! Pictured are his ULTRAMAG Series of screw-less grips. YES, these are for real and YES they stay put without the aid of screws – each pair is held in place by our ultra-tolerance "snap fit." Patent pending.

Our guys are FANATICS when it comes to quality! What some companies call “exacting tolerances” we call intolerable!

ULTRAMAG Series grips, the screw-less ultra-tolerance “RCH-fit” grips. When you demand the very finest in fit and finish for your favorite handgun.


Whoa - Whoa - Whoa ... back that pony up!!!!

To all of you who have recently emailed us regarding our ULTRAMAG grips, we are pleased to post the following photographs showing our ultra-tolerance grips from a number of angles.

Machine Operator #3 has indicated he is willing to reveal the secrets behind this uniquely wicked concept for an undisclosed amount in unmarked bills. Until then, the patent attorney is requesting funds.

Watch this site for our new Ultimate Series Grips - to be released in the very near future...precisely the best!

Genuine Ivory Grips

Machine Operator #3 recently legally acquired a one-of-a-kind priceless piece of ivory. Of course, here at X-Calibergrips we KNEW what to do with it - make a truly amazing pair of grips!

Machine Operator #3 handcrafted this piece of ivory into a phenomenal pair of grips for one of his personal vintage Colts. Take a good look at the detail photos and you will be able to see the various fine stratas and layers which you will only find on a genuine pair of ivory grips.

This is a one-of-a-kind item and a truly unusual find. X-Calibergrips does not purchase or inventory ivory. This is simply a very unique pair of grips which we thought you might enjoy viewing.

Enjoy the pictures of a pair of truly spectacular grips! Thanks to Machine Operator #3 for allowing us to post pictures of his personal handgun grips on our site.

About Our Knives and Gun Grips

The photographs on this page are representative of the characteristics and properties of the synthetic material shown. However, due to variations which occur throughout the material, the exact coloration and pattern will be unique to each pair of grips. Our "standard" handcrafted gun grips tend to be a little thicker (typically 30% thicker) (View Example) than the stock grips provided by most gun manufacturers.

In addition, each pair of X-Calibergrips handcrafted carbon fiber grips is constructed from a solid block of 3/8" plain weave carbon fiber fabric manufactured especially for X-Calibergrips. Unlike some other manufacturers of carbon fiber grips, we NEVER use carbon fiber overlays bonded to inferior fill materials. Bonded overlays are used to reduce the time required to produce a pair of grips and minimize manufacturing costs. However, this technique produces an inferior pair of grips!

Each sample grip is shown displayed on a "stock" 45 calibre handgun. However, we routinely design and handcraft grips for a wide variety of guns. Please contact us with your requirements and we will be happy to design a set of grips for your specific weapon.

How much do they cost? Our handcrafted gun grips start at around $45.00 and may reach $300.00, depending on the hardwood or composite material selected and the complexity of the grips. Contact us and we will be more than happy to give you a quote for your specific handgun. You may find it helpful to consult our Build Sheet when contacting us to request a quote.

Throughout this web site, we show our quality handcrafted handgun grips installed on blue and silver guns in order to provide you with an idea how the various woods and synthetic materials look when mounted on various types of guns.
