Hogue
fancy hardwood grips are in a class of their own, and are
acclaimed by many as the finest handgun stocks available.
We guarantee that the finest workmanship and materials go
into every pair. Not only are these grips attractive but true
to Hogue form-they are extremely functional. All Hogue hardwood
grips are precision inlet on modern computerized machinery
(CNC) then hand finished on actual factory frames, assuring
a proper fit. Finally, the finish is hand polished to a non-slippery
sheen using natural Carnauba wax which will not crack and
peel like cheap sprayed on finishes and can be enjoyed smooth
or adorned with precision checkering or Custom
Textures.
At Hogue all work is done "in house" by expert
craftsmen.

The
samples pictured in this site are very good representations of the
general character and color of the wood,
however,
each and every grip is unique and will vary in color and figure.
A fancy wood
grip will turn an ordinary gun into a unique custom firearm!
Hogue
wood grips are made from many fancy and exotic hardwoods,
chosen for their beauty and durability. All of these woods
are much harder and denser than ordinary walnut, and offer
a wide variety of contrast and grain figurations. All the
woods we use are the highest quality, kiln-dried hardwood
available.
Our
Exotic woods include Kingwood, Tulipwood, Coco Bolo and
Rosewood. These exotic woods give you a virtual rainbow
of colors to choose from. All of our natural woods pictured
in this catalog are shown in their natural colors, no stains
or artificial colors are used. Our wood grips are also available
in very attractive, lightweight laminated hardwoods in either
Rosewood or what we call LAMO CAMO colors.
Our two
most popular hardwoods are GONCALO ALVES (GON-SA-LO AL-VES)
and PAU FERRO (PAW FAIR'-RO). Goncalo Alves is very popular
and is certainly one of our favorites. PAU FERRO is also a
favorite, with rich beautiful figure that resembles fancy
dark walnut. Goncalo Alves and Pau Ferro are among the hardest
and most durable woods in the world.
