What color pistol grip came with everyones polish underfolder? All the ones I've seen have come with the dark brown plastic, but mine came with a black plastic one. I wanted a brown one because I think it looks better. Should I call who I got it from, maybe just trade someone on the board? What say you???

If it's black, it might be U.S. manufacture, I think.  Century puts (crappy) black grips on their WASR's and SAR's.  FSE also made a (nicer) black grip with a matte finish.


Maybe ask the seller if he swapped the grips and kept the Polish one?

I dont think that would be the reason, US grips are usually more expensive than imported.

Crappy black plastic grips?  We're not talking about Ironwood or Z-Recto stuff here.

I don't think one of those Century grips will ever fetch more than $5.  Lots of these get tossed out by new WASR owners and replaced because foreign grips look much better. The FSE ones were $10 from RPB when they were available, and I've seen them for $5 from private sellers.

Those Polish grips with nice red/brown/yellow colors all marbled together are so much better.

Mine came with what I consider a really nice, new, black plastic grip.. It has a matte finish, and is a very good molding.. Might be FSE???

The PLO Polish Underfolder kit I got last year came with a laminated wooden grip.

Bob is kinda right.

The black grip shown is a Beryl grip.
This is a black plastic BERYL grip, it is the same size as the bake-lite thin grips.  It looks just like the US made grips but is not marked






This is a thin reddish grip Please note the ink stamp.




This is a shipment of blk-brown-green thin grips


These are all the grips I have currently. These do not take in account some I have in my safe(PRIVATE COLLECTION).



A two pictures of almost perfect ink stamps




My reddish grips, please take note of the COLOR, this is for future reference.



OK.. here is some COMPARISON pictures of a romanian grip compared to a polish grip.








Any questions....  sorry for the high res pics...

One more thing...
They aren't high dollar, in fact on the wholesale market the black beryl grip is $5 less then the rest of the colors.
Keep in mind this is for Polish grips.  I don't deal in anything else.

Want more pics?
I think I have 4 or 5 beryl grips on hand, with about 40 orange marble/reddish grips

Great "shots" CHARLES!

ONE question!....

Where were you when KENNEDY was shot?



PS,..If you had been "there" instead of Abe Zapruder,...there would be NO QUESTIONS!




On November 22, 1963, I wasn't even born. So can't be me..

Not sure on being there instead of Abe.. he did pretty good with his 16mm film camera.  And back then the general public didn't have much better then that.  It would of been nice that if the camera had sound also but... that was over 40 years ago...

Now, I can tell you this... I was born on the same day that his film was first shown to the public.
