<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nPersonalized grips for a handgun, for instance. One my 1911s now proudly mounts a pair engraved thereon-line Aluma-Grips with my school\u2019s logo thereupon. They come from a very likable mom-and-pop company called Gun Grips at www.gungrips.net<\/a>. Go to the website and touch bases, always necessary for custom work, though they have some standard logos such as those for the American military services for 1911s, Beretta 92s, and a whole lot more. They can work in different media, such as faux ivory; that substance in my experience is more for \u201cshow\u201d than for \u201cgo\u201d and can break with the pounding of constant recoil, so for a gun the recipient is actually going to carry and shoot, I\u2019d strongly recommend their Aluma-Grip option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The most popular handgun brand in America today is the Glock line. A whole cottage industry of Glock accessories and customization has arisen around this marque, and one of the most successful is Lone Wolf<\/a>. They offer all manner of accessories, including their own Timberwolf series of whole Glock-ish pistols with more vertical grips than the original, but staying on topic the Lone Wolf product I\u2019m talking about here is the back plate (properly called Slide Cover Plate) for a Glock slide. Lone Wolf offers them with all sorts of cute images, but you can order them with the name of the person on your gift list.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n My significant other, the Evil Princess, is a self-styled Glock Girl and, on a whim, That\u2019s one of her \u201cfun guns,\u201d and she doesn\u2019t keep it among her defensive Glocks. She has seen me through enough trials to know that opposing counsel would say \u201cSo, Ms. Defendant, you want this jury to believe you\u2019re a responsible gun owner who fired in self-defense, but you were so flippant about killing people that you put a cartoon character on the death weapon?\u201d Any of these sources can put a Punisher skull or something equally stupid on a gun, but if it\u2019s for serious business, no one can make a believable argument that the owner\u2019s name on the pistol is in any way irresponsible. And if you doubt that such accoutrements can trigger allegations of malicious intent, read this.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Christmas is coming up fast, and I can\u2019t guarantee either of the above sources can get you their products in time to put them under the tree, but if you touch bases at their websites they just might be able to do it. And if they can\u2019t, well, they are useful resources to have in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Mankind has probably personalized his weapons since the first Cro-Magnon put his mark on his club.
