I echo the request to see the grips actually mounted on an R9 and applaud the entrepenurial(Sp?) spirit of catering to what R9 supporters really want.

Still scratching my head as to why factory did not make a greater effort to retain CF. Further, factory's claims as to cost and availability of CF are antithetical to what appears to be happening.

The grips pictured in this thread are the first set of grips that were removed from the mold.
They are not the final product.

Original Rohrbaugh grips were only used to make the mold.

I have posted a NEW picture of the final product.
The workmanship, as you can see, is excellent.

Are these flat?  It looks like there are undulations is the grip.  Is it the way the fiber was laid or is the some type of palm swell?  

Great looking to say the least!

Thanks Jack,

I posted this picture of the New grips in a thread titled "Newest Grips".
These are the final product.
