You can if you have about $400 and 8 months to wait.

Beautiful pistol, and the "tactical" cut on the stocks is one of my favorites!

So, you know Kim Ahrends work.

Tough choice, but glad I made it the "tactical cut".

Don't have any good, natural light pics yet, but it really shows the deep blue better.

I haven't had the pleasure yet. Just the grips on my Combat Elite, Alumagrips, and Raasco.

But I now have someone else to look to for grips in the future!
