Photos of Hugh's wonderful grip work

I have two Interarms Mauser P-08 pattern pistols. They're nice, accurate guns, but they just didn't feel like a "luger" because the grips were so blocky and thick. I sent the grips off to Hugh and he thinned, re-shaped and completely re-checkered the grips so the pistols now feel like a real luger should. Here are some photos of his great work (I hope). The workmanship and craftsmanship is simply outstanding!!!!!!!!!!

I'll bet those are pretty darn comfortable; what a difference.

Hugh made a set for me a few years back. Truly excellent work.

Everybody,

Hugh's work is by far the best!

(We cant keep telling him how good his work is or the prices will go up!... he has to pay for that new roof )

Hugh thank you for all the work you have done for me in the past

It's true! Hugh has done some mighty fine work for me...Like everyone, prices creep up some but I found his work to be durn reasonable and I was glad to get it. Any work I need along that line will go to this gentleman.
Thanks Hugh! You da Man! Jerry Burney

Thanks guys, but I just supervise, the actual work is done by the Armadillos. Here is a picture of the Head Checker on Christmas vacation last year.
