    Opinions wanted on grip wood.

    This is a new to me wood. Pay no attention to the shape or fit, this was just a mock up to see how it would look.. Tell me you think.

    Cumaru ( Brazilian Teak )

    I thought the mesquite had potential of you found one with more figure, but the cumaru is very nice.

    Looks outstanding and far better than any Ruger factory wood I have ever seen.
