According to Al Frisch, (one of the best authorities on Hollywood movie guns) he has verified that John Wayne's grips were made by Maurice D. Scarlack of a material Scarlack had developed and he called it Catalin. These grips are a very close copy of the Scarlack grips. They have the finger grooves cut into the left grip like you see on the grips John Wayne used on his personal movie guns. The “Catalin material was produced in the 1920s through the 40s and was used on first generation Colt Single actions in the early movie industry for cowboy movie guns. Makes you remember the fun of the old Saturday matinee Western. The grips we offer here are not Catalin but are made of polyurethane. These grips can easily be to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation Colts. They can also be it on most 1873 Colt clones with only minor work for a perfect fit. They look like very old yellowed ivory and would beautify your gun. Choose Right hand or Left hand draw. SOLD |
