See below for details.~~~~~two-PIECE (with SCREWHOLE) STYLETHIS AUCTION IS FOR OUR TWO-PIECE (SCREWHOLE) STYLE GRIPS. SEE BELOW.********ONE-PIECE VS. TWO-PIECE STYLE GRIPS:Note: Two-Piece style grips incorporate a visible screw and screwhole, allowing easy and quick removal for cleaning or maintenance of your revolver. One-Piece style grips do not use a screw but instead use an internal spacer. We sell both types. Both styles are traditional and historical designs and both were originally used on early Colts, so it is a matter of personal preference. Both styles of our grips will interchange and work on either style of grip frame, no matter how your revolver is currently set up. See below.One-Piece style grips (i.e., grips which do not have a visible screwhole in the grips) incorporate a user installed spacer (which is included with the grips) between the grip panels, as seen on many of the early Colts. The spacer supplied with your grips is sent unmounted to ensure optimum fit with your revolver, with simple, quick installation which takes about one minute or so per panel. Fully illustrated instructions are included. This results in a rock-tight fit, without the need of a screw. Preferred by many collectors for their clean lines and traditional look. One-Piece style grips are removed by removing the three backstrap screws, and pulling the grip and backstrap backwards. Reinstallation is in reverse order. Alternatively, our Two-Piece style grips (i.e., grips with a visible screw and screwhole) offer the superior convenience of quick grip removal. Our grips include a free Conversion Kit, allowing their use on revolvers that are currently set up for One-Piece style grips that do not have a grip pin. The Conversion Kit replaces the need for a grip pin and is actually a stronger design, and allows the grips to lock up tight on the frame, allowing no movement. This requires no modification to your revolver and gives you the advantage of the ease of maintenance of Two-Piece grips, while preserving the integrity of your revolver in original factory condition. Two-Piece style grips were also used on many of the early Colts, and are a traditional and iconic historical design, offering a distinctive look and convenience preferred by many collectors.Fully illustrated, detailed instructions are included with each set of grips. 06302300~~~~~WHAT THESE WILL FIT:The legendary Colt 1851 Navy, a 36 Caliber Cap & Ball revolver designed by Sam Colt, was manufactured in Hartford, CT starting in the 1850’s and continued on into the 1870’s. In 1873, it was superceded by the Colt 1873 Single Action Army, which fired metallic cartridges and became a legend in its own right. To many, the handling qualities and the size and shape of the Navy grip frame was and is unsurpassed, even by today’s standards. It was the grip frame that the later Colt 1873 Single Action Army was based on. As such, both the ’51 Navy and the 1873 SAA are deemed by many to be two of the most naturally pointing revolvers ever designed. With an elegant and svelte profile, the ’51 Navy grip frame facilitates ultra-fast handling, and rapid, instinctive aiming. It was the preferred sidearm by many seasoned gunfighters of the Old West. Bringing the Navy revolver into quick action by experienced gunmen was more of an exercise in instinctual tactile feel rather than ponderous, time-consuming deliberation. The Navy revolvers can be easily distinguished from the later Colt 1873 Single Action Army because they do not have a top strap (the section of steel located over the top of the cylinder, where the rear sight trough is located on the 1873). These grips WILL FIT the following Uberti revolvers and their derivatives (such as the “Open Tops” and “Conversions”). These revolvers have a grip approximately 3-1/16” to 3-1/8” tall, depending on how you hold your ruler or caliper:- 1851 Navy Percussion (Cap & Ball)-- 1851 Navy Conversion-- 1851 Navy Open Top -- Richards-Mason 1851 Navy Conversions –- C. Mason 1851 Navy Conversions –- Man With No Name 1851 Navy Conversions -- 1861 Navy Percussion (Cap & Ball) -- 1871 Navy Open Tops-- 1872 Navy Open Tops –- Leech & Ridgon (CSA 1851 Navy) –(basically anything based on the 1851 Navy in other words) UBERTI FRAME VARIATIONS -- IMPORTANT!*PLEASE NOTE: Over the years Uberti has used multiple variations of gripframes on these revolvers, and they are NOT interchangeable. IF your revolver has a two-digit code inside a small rectangular box (as shown in the second picture in this listing), or if your revolver alternatively is marked with Roman numerals (i.e., “XXX” or “XXIV”), please attach a message to your order and send that code to us. If after a careful inspection you find that your revolver does not have the code (which some of the newer revolvers do not), please send the first three digits of your serial number instead. If we do not hear from you we will send the most common version. What these will NOT fit:Please note that these will NOT fit revolvers made by Colt, Pietta, Army San Marco, or any other manufacturer. Please check and make sure your revolver was made by Uberti prior to ordering. Cimarron, Taylors & Co., or EMF, etc., are importers and buy from various manufacturers, including Uberti. But Uberti’s name should be found somewhere on the revolver.Please also be aware that Uberti makes an 1860 Army sized revolver which has a roughly similar appearance to the ’51 Navy. However, the 1860 Army grip is around 3-3/8” tall, so 1860 Army grips are not interchangeable with the ’51 Navy. Please check your grip frame measurement prior to ordering. These grips will fit only the Navy so your existing grips should be around 3-1/16” to 3-1/8” tall for these to work. If you have the taller (3-3/16”) 1860 Army sized grip frame, please check our store for Uberti 1860 Army grips, or send us an email if you cannot find what you need and we will be happy to help. 07282300A note on the Italian-produced Revolvers: The Italian firms, located in Northern Italy, have been making SAA style revolvers now for well over a half century, and have made numerous makes and models and grip frame profiles with varying configurations over the years.

Standard Bonded Ivory is brittle, and tends to weaken and develop stress fractures over time with repeated use, firing, and handling. Magna-Tusk™ is capable of withstanding the heaviest recoil and impact, and is the toughest alternative Ivory grip material available today, while still retaining the pristine look of real ivory. These grips are not cast or made out of an inferior, lightweight material, but are heavy and dense, carefully milled out of a solid block, one at a time. Magna-Tusk is completely rock-solid, stable, and water, chemical, and oil resistant. It is flame and heat resistant, will not melt like Urethane or plastic, and is entirely void-free, with over 10x the strength, durability, and impact resistance of alternative materials. Unlike with real ivory, there is no routine care and maintenance involved, with no danger of it drying out and cracking if not maintained properly or if left in the heat. It is produced with outstanding aesthetic properties and mechanical performance. When aged with our exclusive aging process, it takes on the equivalent of a 100-year-old patina, with subtle grain details which most experts cannot tell apart from the real thing. In addition, the material has a fine grain structure, which holds intricate detail for carvings, artistic relief work, etc., found on many historic grips. Please note that the photo used is a stock photo (a sample pair). Yours will appear similar to these.
