Description
Original Antique Hand made JIGGED BONE grips for 1873 Colt SAA. These grip are from the River Junction Collection. Most of the early jigged bone was made by the Rogers Manufacturing Company of Rockfall, Connecticut. Rogers started making manufactured bone products, and bone fertilizer in 1891. They began to make jigged bone handles for knives and guns around the turn of the century. By the time of the first World War Rogers Mfg. Co. was the nation's largest maker of manufactured bone products. At first, all of the bone used by Rogers Mfg. Co. came from domestic cattle. By the 1920s, or perhaps even earlier, all of the raw bone was coming from overseas, mainly from Argentina, Brazil, and a new source: Australia. Australian bone came mainly from old tough range cattle, and was very thick, dense and strong. This heavy Australian bone quickly became the preferred material for handles. Though these distinctive stocks are no longer made commercially, hand made jigged bone stocks are still available from, RIVER JUNCTION TRADE CO. . Above is my 2nd Generation Colt SAA, with straight line jigging on what I believe is Australian bone. They are highly polished original hand made antique bone grips, and without altering them they are a perfect fit on my Colt. When your vintage Colt deserves vintage grips this is a good choice.
