Pistol Grip Handle

Several years ago a company in Memphis made an after-market pistol grip replacement handle. This handle was made from rubber, and actually felt like the grip on a revolver. I think the company's name was Lee-Dar. I cannot find them on the internet, so figure they are no longer in business. Does anyone remember this handle, and do you have any idea where I can get any that are even close?

Thanks

David

Re: Pistol Grip Handle

I know they aren't a sponsor, but mudhole has some cork pistol grips on sale. Maybe that could work?

I'm not familiar with the handle you referenced.

Thanks, I am familiar with the Mud Hole handles. I am looking for a hard rubber pistol grip.

Re: Pistol Grip Handle

David, I don't know of any solid rubber handles but I have coated some of my handles with a rubber compound called Grip Dip. It is a rubberized plastic coating much like that which tool handles are dipped in. I paint mine on. Comes in several different colors. It's manuf. by Homax Products, inc. Joe

Re: Pistol Grip Handle

Dutchman, sounds like a novel idea. I may just have to try that on a rod. Thanks.

Re: Pistol Grip Handle

Try doing a search on e-bay for (lews,lew's,lew childre)They quite often have the pistol grip handles up there, if it is like handles on the old Lew's speed sticks.

Re: Pistol Grip Handle

I've seen just the grips also. You should be able to get them for about $10
