New grips, "Raw" wood

Hey Dave. I bought 4 pairs of the SARCO $15 grips made in India for my Shooters. They needed about 2 hours of work per pair to contour and clearance. Make sure the mag release spring has clearance. For the price I'm happy with them. I initially used Lemon Pledge furniture polish ( the liquid ) and let it soak in for awhile, then wiped off the excess. After 2-3 weeks they would look a little dry and I would repeat it. I eventually bought some Formbys Tung Oil ( low gloss ) and have not had to do any more since. Joe
