Need opinions on Altamont grips

TJ1 · 02-13-2021, 07:16 PM

I have an otherwise fairly nice 1937 P08 buy it has some funky grips with overly large checking.

What is they opinion on the ALTAMONT grips?

Thanks for looking

I like them on my S&W 686

Those look good to me, didn't know they were making them for a luger

I've got some fancy grips for my mismatched artillery from Altamont plus several pair for my Ruger Old Armies and Blackhawks. A-1 in my book.

Those are nice looking grips for sure and seem to fit perfectly. Until now, I was unaware of Altamont.

A company I have done business with and have been very satisfied is Grips4U. They make a first class product.

As above, I was not aware that Altamont was even making a Luger grip. They have a good reputation as an aftermarket grip producer.

I have 2 pairs of luger grips from Altamont and am very happy with both sets. One set is a presentation set done very well and pleasing to the eye. A+

Thanks for the comments and links.

A ton more food for thought.

Mine are just a bit crud but very sturdy.
