    Walnut...... Again !

    After replacing the plastic grips on my Beretta Model 92-FS with Walnut, I decided to do the same with my new Beretta Model 87 Target with the same. The pictures show both before and after. I think the Walnut gives a much richer appearance. And they feel good in the hand as well.

    Both sets of the Walnut Beretta grips fit perfectly with the original screws. The counter bores for the screw heads were perfectly sized, and no Loctite was used on the grip screws at the factory. Swapping them out took only a couple of minutes.

    Target looks great with the walnut grips, but I kind of prefer the all black 92fs.

        Ha ha I was kind of thinking the other way around. Love the walnut on the service piece (for looks anyway) and I think the black grips look slick in the target model.
        Buy made in USA whenever possible.

          Looks great to me. I was thinking of buying Beretta's walnut grips for my wife's little Tomcat, only $40. Wood always feels better to me than plastic.

            I put Hogue grips in walnut on my 92FS.

                I love what you did on your Berettas. Wood adds warmth to the blue steel finish. Great looking pistols.

                  Nice. Wood sure dresses up those two classics
