RB Grips, Sportsman model.  They look and feel great!  Ralph really does nice work.

I haven't decided for sure yet, but I may order a set of the Target model for this 2300S and put these on a different pistol.   I really like the thumb shelf he did on the 717 target grips and it looks like the target version of his 22XX grips have that same shelf.   These might work better for an all-around plinker like a 2240 (that will probably end up in my collection soon :)).  Either way they're great grips!

Outstanding!  Your pistol looks sensational. RC

Nice!  I just placed an order with Ralph myself. I agree, the Target model has a better thumb shelf for target shooting.  I ordered that for my 1701p.  The Sportsman set I have on it now will go back to the 2240 I stole em off.

Love it looks real nice :-* Ralph sure is good at what he does.

Thanks guys!

I just ordered a set of Target style grips for the same gun.  I'll see which I like the best.  There's certainly nothing wrong with these and they look great, but I'll try the Target style and see which ones allow me the best hold.  Cool stuff!

Those are good looking grips, and surely a better feel than the stock plastic ones.  Enjoy!!

Very nice grips dude :-*

Not to hijack the thread but I see you have a Williams rear site.  Do you/are you having a problem with pulling the bolt to the rear and keeping from busting a knuckle?
Long days and pleasant nights to you...

It's not perfect but I have it mounted pretty far back so when I pull the bolt all the way back it kind of stops where the sight starts.  I just use a finger on the front of the bolt to pull it though.  If I were to grab the bolt between thumb and finger like I normally would there'd probably be little blood drops on the sight from a scraped up thumb.  :)

Cool, thanks for the word  :-*

You got a great set of grips, and will like the target grips even better if the thumb shelf is a factor.  The ones on my custom 2240 fit great and allow for a really nice hold.  For what it is worth, I got the satin finish on mine instead of the glossy finish; in my opinion, that helps the hold a bit.

These turned out to be a bit a little too thick for my short fingers.  Ralph is sending out a pair of target style early this week that are supposed to be a little slimmer so I think this pair will go up for sale on one of the forums.  I pulled them off last night and put the stock grips back on.  It's hard to go back to plastic after having nice wood on there  :)
