“Extremely grateful they were able to work with me even though I'm from California. Strict gun laws here make things difficult. Good communication. Great shipping time overall. Very happy.”
“I have not install that pease yet ,let me indicate that your pease is set for what is call an open gun and be used in competition in USPSA of US Practica shooting Association .”
“Owner responded quickly when USPS delayed the delivery. That kind of attention will go a long way to ensure success of the company. Still $65 for 4 screws is overpriced”
Thanks for the feedback. Sadly we didn't earn a 5 star due to you thinking our products are overpriced. Let me take a minute to walk you through what you received and the work that went into them.
The screws were $62.. not $65. And for $62, you got a set of screws made no where else on the planet, with over 2 hours of hand labor to create each set. Skilled American labor. Machinists.. QC staff.. and artisans doing the hand work.
No.. if anything we are selling too cheaply, as our costs have skyrocketed while we kept the retail price the same for years now. We should have raised prices.. but refused.
The cost to make a custom screw that only fits one gun model is vastly expensive. This screw fits nothing else, and has no other use in any industry. The Swiss screw machine to make them runs into 6 figures in cost, and set up can take a day or two to dial in, make test batches, then run production in expensive stainless steel. Then QC each screw... hand polish each screw.. hand set an expensive gemstone into every single screw... and that labor is not accounting if there is a secondary finish like a PVD coat.
These are not hardware screws.. made in the millions in china out of inexpensive material.. never touched by human hands.
Then, after all that hand work by skill American labor, we ship them for free.. absorbing the $9-$12 in shipping costs, boxes, packaging, tool bit (which costs over a dollar to produce alone, on another expensive machine, in titanium which is not cheap...). On top of that, we don't charge sales tax to non Michigan residents.
So right off the top, you received free shipping and no sales tax, a discount on your order of over 20%.
So our price.. for such a unique, hand worked product made in the USA.. is a huge bargain. If you are trying to compare our work, and prices, to cheaper amazon screws sold for a few dollars, there is no comparison.
I hope you enjoy them.

“These custom Blue Opal dot grip screws are a terrific option, and I love the uniquely custom look to them, they are entire world's apart from most other, far more mundane looking, grip screws, especially in wood, which really makes them pop.
And they're available in several colour options.
Glad Wicked Grips had them, in their uniqueness, and makes them available to everyone, even shipping them to the back-woods of way 'Down Under' for me!
Kudos to them & very much appreciated.
EDIT: I've tried to upload the pics of them in the STARS grips, and in their box with their mini screwdriver bit tool. But the pics don't seem to be up showing up here, after being browsed & selected...(If they did, it wasn't see-able on my end, within the review), and you'll have gotten multiple copies from each attempt. Sorry.
You may need to work on the pics transfer part.
I got no indications of any transfers across, (from either my phone's gallery or camera roll) despite the two icons jiggling a little, which gave me false hope they were just loading...(But even after leaving them for about 10 mins, incase it was a slow internet thing) the pics themselves showed no evidence here, (within the drag/browse boxes provided) of them actually transfering across, to appear as part of this review.
They just kept looking empty.
So either my 3 nice pics didn't come with this review for some reason, or you've just gotten about a hundred copies of those 3 pics, from my various & increasingly annoyed attemts to happily send them.
Tried both the drag/browse dropboxes. Neither seemed to work.”
“By far the best, most unique and beautiful grip I’ve ever put on my gun. Well worth the price tag. I’ve never had more compliments on a 1911 after putting these on and training with my coworkers.”
“You get what you ordered. Solid products at a decent price. Easy to nagivate the website and many choices to pick from. I will be coming back for more.”
