Can anyone recommend a good source for high quality multi colored mammoth tooth ivory grips?
The nice ones are very hard to find. Wilson Combat uses them on their Signature Series pistols, but seldom have any extra sets.

Thank you!
I've been emailing FineTurnage for several months, but not much luck so far. I'll try the other site.

Thank you, again!

I've never bought anything from them. Just happened upon them while searching the web.

Try this number (508)770-8072 and ask for Charles (Turnage). I had a hard time reaching him also. He does not always have scales large enough for grips, but give him a call and he'll let you know when he gets some. You also might want to check ebay (http://stores.ebay.com/FINE-TURNAGE-PRO ... esstQQtZkm). He sells scales and sometimes grips there. The top two pictures are mine raw and finished. the others are just ones that I liked.

+1 on Charles Turnage. He did a set of slim line ivory stocks for me that were very nice.

I agree those grips are really nice. I would love to see a picture of them on a pistol.
