At Chisel and Plane Workshop, most of our handgun grips are made to order. This makes every pair of grips unique and one of a kind. The ordering process is simple; just follow the steps below.
- Decide on the type of wood you would like the new grips made from. Pick out a wood blank from our Grip Blanks page. Currently only walnut blanks are listed on the blanks page but other woods are available upon request, see our About Our Grips page for a list of woods that we keep in stock. Grip prices for the various woods can be found on the Price List page.
- Use the form on the Contact Us page to tell us about yourself and the grips you would like to order. Include information such as gun make and model, inventory number for the wood blank you have chosen or type of wood if no blank is available, options such as medallions and grip thickness (Gunfighter or Standard). Also include if you would like a pair of fitted and finished grips or a Grip Kit.
- After we receive your message, Chris will contact you by email (phone, if you prefer) to further discuss your order and provide additional information such as total cost, methods of payment and (if applicable) suggestions for shipping of your grip frame or parts to us. Do not send payment or parts until after details of the order have been finalized.
For the benefit of our customers and to ensure customer satisfaction, as of January, 2010, Chris will only be making fitted custom grips for customers that are willing to provide their grip frame for final fitting. This is due to tolerance variations in grip frames and includes Ruger and Colt single action grips.
Payment: 100% payment is due before work will be started on the grips. Payment can be made by PayPal, money order or check.
Please make checks and money orders payable to Chisel and Plane Workshop.

Ruger grip frames that we make grips for:
- XR3
- XR3-RED
- XRN-3RED

You can contact us if you need assistance identifying your Ruger grip frame type.
Colt and Colt Clones: Currently we only make grips to fit the Colt Single Action Army (SAA). Because of tolerance variations, grips can only be fitted to your SAA if you send us your Colt trigger guard and backstrap, DO NOT send the entire gun. If you don’t wish to send us your trigger guard and backstrap, we can still make you a custom pair of grips but they will be oversized and need to be fitted after you receive them.
Refund Guarantee: If you are not happy with the fit or quality for whatever reason, return the grips in the same unaltered condition as received within ten (10) days and we will refund you the purchase price (less shipping charge) or make you a new set of grips, whichever you prefer. Grips must be received by Chisel and Plane Workshop no later than ten (10) days from date of original shipment. DO NOT alter the fit or finish if you intend to return them. Any alterations you make to the grips will void the refund. Refund does not apply for orders shipped outside of the United States, grips that have been fitted to customers grip frame, personalized grips or grips that become lost or damaged during shipping.
Turn Around Time: Please email to receive estimate for deliver time.
Staying in Touch: After a customer has placed an order, Chris sends update emails and stays in close contact with our customers while making their grips. Photos can also be sent by email showing the grips in different phases while being made and after the grips are finished before shipping.
Shipping: We usually ship grips by USPS Priority Mail. Free shipping in lower 48 States.
Please take a look at our About Our Grips page and ask any question you have before ordering.
