    I ordered a set of 2nd generation Python grips for my new 2022 Anaconda hoping they would mate without any modification. Wow…fit like a glove! Extroadinary craftmanship. My Anaconda is all dressed up! Olof is a pleasure to work with. Thank you Olof. I am very pleased😊

    These grips are a must-have on the new 2020 Python. They feel fantastic and give the gun a beautiful, classic aesthetic. The craftsmanship and attention to detail in both the grips themselves and the finish is incredible especially at this price. I was torn between these grips and the non-oil 2nd gen ones for my 2020 Python. I talked to Olof, and he recommended these for a gun that would actually be shot since they would be more comfortable. They are also noticeably thicker than the factory grips which helps tremendously with the way the gun feels. I also like that the checkerboarding is more pronounced and not recessed like it is on the factory grips. This can cause slight discomfort when shooting hot rounds, but I prefer the added grip they offer (they seem to stick to my hands much more than the originals which always felt too loose). My only complaint is that they are designed for the classic Pythons and do not have holes for the second pin found in the 2020 version. This is a slight nitpick, and in the grand scheme of things, it is fairly minor. Overall, I love my grips, and I actively recommend them and Deer Hollow Online to anyone in need of new reproduction grips. Olof is a pleasure to work with, and his work is top-notch!

    These are the best. The fit is perfect. My first and only stop for colt stocks.

    Wonderful!

    Those Colt Python Natural Oil Grips that you just sent me are simply stunning! Better than the original. Authentic in every way. Olof, you make the finest reproduction grips on the market today. There is nobody that is even a close second.

    Amazing quality grips and an easy, good looking upgrade for my new Colt Anaconda over the stock rubber ones. They will comfortably handle full house 240gr. .44 mag rounds and even the heavier 305gr. hunting ones. I had no chaffing or hot spots after shooting a box of .44 mag and a box of .44 special. I agree with the earlier review that if you plan to shoot or carry your Colt on a regular basis that the stained walnut is the way to go. I can’t recommend these grips enough!

    This is the third set of Python reproduction grips I’ve received from Deer Hollow this year, and all I can say is- Beautiful! Just like the others, the fit, feel finish, and looks are top notch.The Altamont grips on the new version Pythons just don’t do any justice to such a stunning revolver. And, the smell of the oil finish when I opened the bag took me back to the days when my late gunsmith father would do hand rubbed oil finishes on rifle stocks. These grips are worth every dollar. Thank goodness I only have one more Python to dress up! (For now).

    Thank you Olof, I ordered 2 sets of your Colt Python, 2nd. Generation Oil Finished grips & they are perfect. Based on the other reviews I knew they would be great, but they exceeded my expectation. I also have a 3rd. Colt Python it’s a 1988 with the Flaming Mane grips. They were ok, until I received the Deer Hollow 1960-1961 2nd. Generation Oil Finished grips. So I had to add my email for a 3rd. set of Deer Hollow.
    Sincerely, David Anderson

    Have to say, these second gen 60/61 grips make my new model Python present a top of the line look and are a 100% improvement. But the real payoff is the FEEL they impart. Remarkable improvement in how steady the revolver became with these. Checkering is crisp and, well, you just have to feel these in your hand to undestand how much a new Python needs these grip panels. I have xl hands and these grips fit me to a T. Thanks Deer Hollow, worth every nickel of the price.

    This is my second set of grips from Deer Hollow and bought these grips before I bought a new Python! I’m debating between a 3 inch Blued and Stainless 3 inch! My first set I put on my 6 inch blued Python! These grips are unreal in quality and craftsmanship!

  11. Ted Aravidis

    This is my 3rd set of Colt grips from Deer Hollow and they are amazing. This set is for a 1959 Colt 3-5-7 some call it the pre-Python. Olof was great in helping me identify the right grips, and the reproductions were even better than the originals would have been, fresh out of the factory. The ones that came with the revolver are 66 years old and showed their age. The 1959 pre-Python looks brand new now. Thank you 🙂

    These 2nd Gen 1960-61 Oiled Walnut grips are fantastic! The pictures do not do these justice. You really need to hold these in your hand on a Python to truly appreciate the craftsmanship. Yes-they take some patience and persistence in checking the website frequently, to see if they are in-stock (would also highly recommend signing up your email to be the first notified when they become available from Olof) Totally worth it and make shooting full house .357 Magnum loads alot more fun. The nostalgic history of these grips are beyond cool, too. I have a custom leather holster coming from Colliers Leather in Oklahoma & can’t wait to show this rig off.

  13. Craig Wyler

    The 2nd Gen 1960-61 Oiled Walnut grips are my first set of Colt grips from Deer Hollow, and they couldn’t be more perfect. The grips are a must-have upgrade for the 2020 Python. The factory-supplied ones look so sad compared to these. Playing the “in-stock” lottery for these is the only deterrent, Rarer than front-row seats to an Elvis Presley concert in the flesh today! Be patient, and you will not be disappointed.

  14. Jerome Koller

    Just received my second pair of 2nd Gen 1960–61 Oiled Walnut grips—the first for my blued 2024 Python and the second for my new Kodiak—and I couldn’t be more impressed. These grips are exactly what other reviewers have said: true works of art. What I have to add, though, is the exceptional service Olof provides. Before the sale, after the sale—he goes above and beyond in a way that’s almost unheard of today. Any future Colt revolvers I bring home will absolutely end up wearing one of his masterpieces.

  15. Donald Vining

    Beautiful grips, perfect fit on my 2020 Python. Outstanding in every way.
    Very easy to order, fast shipping – had a question beforehand and communication was excellent.
