stinsonbeach Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 ...grips for the Para P-14? Hougue does, but there's a 60-90 day lag time from Midway. RAASCO does, but not for the P-14. There is another company who makes aluminum grips - I've forgotten the name. What I want is a grip like the VZ - x the way, I've contacted them & no they don't! Anyway, that's my question. Thanks.

gino_aki Posted May 9, 2011 Share Posted May 9, 2011 I'm guessing grip and stocks makers have given up on hi-cap Paras because of the tabs. You may have to do 'em yourself or be prepared to pay a premium for custom jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah - I was trying to avoid all that . . . by the way, I'm guessing you haven't seen a hi-cap in quite awhile, living in the "Island Paradise"!

BBoyle Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 They use paras there. Just have to use the ten round mags. I know because I got my start at mppl when I was in the service and I had a p14 built. Always great shooting weather! Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braxton1 Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Navidrex used to make them. Haven't seen them for a while though. Brownells may still be a source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe4d Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Navidrex dont really fit. The stock plastic ones are pretty much it. I might have a set of the rubber finger groove ones laying around I will check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParaGunner Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 I have always sanded down the checkering on the factory para grips then put skateboard tape on them. It makes a great grip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpolans Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 One of the gunsmiths used to make a nice insert that would fill up the back corners of the frame and cover the trigger slot, making it easy to just put grip tape on the frame. Forgot who it was. I don't think they're made anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinsonbeach Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Thanks everyone - but it seems I'm SOL...tho the "...sanded..." & grip tape sounds good actually. I don't use skate-board tape, I use outdoor stair tape. Little thicker, much rougher & never wears out - on all my guns. Wonder why I never thought of doing that to these? . . . must be the "wiffle-ball-brain" syndrome!!! Thanks again. -jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moeen Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 Smith & Alexander makes grips for the ParaOrdnance. King's gunworks did as well; however, they have been bought out by someone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braxton1 Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Ben Jones at Guncrafter in Florida used to be the one who made those aluminum inserts. I don't know if daughter Kim is still in business down there.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
