44 Special and still look as good as they did more than half a century ago. These grips are still in use on the special. The first pair of grips he made for me more than 50 years ago was a one-piece Pau Ferro exotic wood for a Colt SAA. My good friend Tony Kojis has been making single action grips for nearly 60 years - over 2,000 sets. Also beautifully crafted, Olof offers Colt repro-grips for the 1903, 1908 and Diamondback as well as grips for such World War II pistols as the Nambu and Radom. Olof is now offering the original fully checkered grip to fit the shorter grip frame and will soon have the original style. Later versions of both the Detective Special and alloy framed Cobra had a shorter, squared off butt frame. 38 Special was created with fully checkered grips added to the slightly rounded grip frame. Once again the magnificent original feel is available. The grips were changed, so the top part of the grip was now thinner and uncheckered - no improvement at all! Now thanks to Olof at Deer Hollow, the original fully shaped and fully checkered grips are back. Around 1960, someone at Colt decided to “improve” the Python. The Colt Python arrived in 1955 with hand filling grips, fully checkered.
