This grip is for the Colt 1882 "New Police" .38 Colt
caliber revolver, not the later .38 Special Official Police!
Don't confuse them. The grips were originally made from
a photograph taken of the two engravers wearing costumes
and holding a pose as seen on the grips. Then they engraved
the mold, which was used to form the original grips from
hard rubber.
The grips depict a policeman arresting a criminal, so the
model has become known as the Colt "Cop and Thug". It is
a solid frame, spur trigger 5-shot revolver chambered
for the short .38 Colt cartridge, which looks somewhat
like the .38 S&W but is not the same dimensions. The
cylinder is removed by pulling the cylinder pin. The gun
is not a break top or a side-swing cylinder model.
This particular grip is not improved by adding medallions
because they obscure the original pattern and seldom
cover all of the "COLT" logo at the top.
As with all the grips, you can order any color you like, but
the pattern you see in the picture is what you get when
you order this particular model number. The grips are
formed in molds. A note to "make it smooth" or "make it
staghorn" means I need to hold the order, write a message
to let you know that if you want those features you'd have
to order a grip model that has them and shows them in
the picture, and then wait to see what you want to do. If
I don't have another grip shown with the features you
want, then the only option is to cancel the order. To save time
and effort, it's best not use the 'note'
section to ask for things that can't be done. Changing
the size, shape, or pattern on the grip shown are things
that can't be done.
If there is sufficient demand, I will eventually make a
new model grip, create a new mold with it, and then offer
other versions to fit the same gun. You'll see it listed
when it is available. If it isn't listed, it isn't yet
available. Everything I have is shown on this webstore.
