P220 w/Equinox Grips: Got 'em & They're On

Those grips are ugly! You're in luck though. They'll fit my 220 & I'd be willing to take them off your hands cheap.

Where did you say you got them again? Ebay?

I might have to look into a set for me elite. They look good on the all black pistol.

Thanks. Yes - eBay. Don't know if it's appropriate to link to a seller/item, so here's a search link: http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?_kw=EQUI...WOOD&_kw=GRIPS

Wholy shit. I didn't think they were going to be 125 bucks. I guess I've never really priced grips before though.

I thought around 50-60.

Hogue grips and other manufacturers are significantly less, but they won't (or at least probably shouldn't unless licensed) say Sig Sauer on them. And, it seems that the SIG grips are made in such a way so as to add some width to the grip. Not everyone would want or need that.

I hope that was purple or at the most blue Loc-Tite. If it was red, your 220 may be wearing those grips a looooonnnnnnggggg time.

Adios,

DOH! Of course, I used red. I considered blue, but the very ends of the threads on the screws were red when I removed them to swap the grips. It never occurred to me that blue might dry red, in which case yeah, I'm "screwed" but good.
