My photos aren't up to the Steve Bailey quality, but I wanted to share these. Jason was kind enough to sell me one of his pre-production sets of carbon fiber grips. These have a bid of texturing to them. Here they are on a black gun.

I also bought a pair if the Yo-Bo/VZ micartas. These are awesome. The black paper has very clean crisp checkering. Here they are on a black/grey gun.

Jason is like Santa's little helper of the YoBo shop. :P I'm suprised he gets any gunsmithing done with all the other things he's got going on.

He must do it after the rest of the guys close up the shop for the night. They just lock Jason in and say "see you in the morning". :D

I have really become a fan of both. My EDC has a pair of the black micartas and a gun I did for Shot had the carbon fibers. Those ideas all came together well.

Thanks for posting the pictures.

The red/black and green/black in the traditional double diamond pattern are also some of my favorites.

Is it possible to get the grips with flat bottoms for a gun with a S&A magwell. I looked at the Yobo sight quickly and didn't see if they are available.

Pete,
These don't have a real angled scallop on the bottom of the stock. Unfortunately we are not having them cut for S&A magwells at the time.

If you are taking photo requests, could you post some of your outstanding photo work with the red/black and green/black grips? Thanks!

Thanks Jason! Those look good!

You don't by chance have a picture of the full side profile of a pistol with the red/black grips? I'm considering those for a project and would love to see them on a hard chrome government. Thanks! :D
