Default Stamps are kinda new...

Hi guys... Yes, I've not stamped the bottoms until this year..maybe a little last year... only upon request... some shooters like it, some don't... The GT stamp was initially made for internally stamping custom Luger items made for John V. Martz.. but I really never did stamp much of that,...by the time I was finished with items for John, I was pretty much at the end of my rope from stress that some type of disaster would be fall me... So, I would work on a set of grips for two months, and 15 minutes after they were done, we were at the post office waving bye-bye... ...no pictures, no fan-fair... just a nice set of grips completed for a great fellow... Mr. Martz... And, Frank was close...but just a little short on the years... 30+ on mag bottoms... First few years wern't too pretty though... then it seemed an insermountable task... now, I can make them with my eyes closed..and actually did before cateract surgury!!! .... And, rhuff, I'm finished with yours and it'll be in the mail Monday!! If you liked the other one..you'll love this one... It's the nicest piece of dense French Walnut I had in my inventory... ... And, if Rich can't find his loose one..I'll send him another... ...Thanks for all the kind words fellows, this forum is the very best ...best to all, til...lat'r...GT
