That Dog looks none too happy.

Maybe thats where he got his name.

I think im gonna be sick.

New guy on the forum.

Chatanooga is tubbys for greasiest, but very good. Best in TN has to be Littons in Kville.

I could be getting taken but I havent gotten burned on Ebay yet..... Knock on wood. They have 100% feedback. I guess my question was about the wood. Has anyone ever had wattle (Black Locust) as a grip before? I looked it up on wikipedia and it looks like a good hard wood, I am just not fimiliar with it.

I did. I "jumped the gun" and got the second ones. (I still want your opinions, call me an idiot you wont be the first or second) I couldnt wait. And being in budapest is fine I guess shipping was only 7$ and I paid through paypal so im secure on my investment if im not happy. Ive had to get paypal to intervene before. I searched the net and couldnt find anything worth a darn for grips for the CZ other than on Ebay. Seems that CZ is a hard company to corner on things. BTW this will not be my carry gun. Ive got a little SW .38 airlight that will go in the pocket much easier. Although from what I can tell this CZ would do just fine and is much more accurate at a distance.

Here are the other grips.

Dang it, I guess ive been celebrating my CC class too much tonight. http://cgi.ebay.com/CZ-82-83-walnut-premium-GRIP_W0QQitemZ180266655441QQihZ008QQcategoryZ383QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Also are there better woods than others? There is another listing for checkered wattle (Black Locust) in red finish that look VERY GOOD for 50$ I know im putting a lot of money in a grip for an inexpencive gun but for its performance today I think it will be a great gun.

Im a new member and really new to the handgun world. Im a fisherman at heart and am learning that this is just as addictive. Anyway, last night I bought a CZ 83 380 from a member on the forum, then qualified with it today for my CC. Im jumping in feet first. Bottom line I would like wood grips for it, and am an EBAY fanatic. DO these look decent to you? What are the pitfalls of buying wood vs. plastic? By the way, the first time I fired that CZ was to qualify, 1st thank God it fired and I didnt look like an idiot. 2nd, for my skill level I havent been more accurate from that short distance with a different gun. Very smooth.

Im not sure of anyones names but I took my CC class today at Sportsmans Supply near the Krystals off of Hixson Pike near Northgate and there was a gunsmith there on staff all day. He was a midnight shift cop by trade. Seemed like a good guy for what thats worth.
