“I have wicked Grips on four or five of my 1911s. I love them all. Everyone of the grips on your web site are so beautiful, I find myself going back and looking at them although I'm not ready to purchase again. Wicked Grips is addictive. Beware folks,,,once you get started, you're hocked,,,but in a satisfying way. I'm in the process of aquiring another 1911,,, and intending to get the the Raven grips for it from Wicked Grips.”
“Incredible grips and screws, the price is a show of quality and substance and I am glad I “pulled the trigger” on these grips. I love them and will be buying more in the future.”
“Wicked grips has become my go-to. I have purchased six sets so far. Size of selection and designs is amazing, they are sent out quick, price is reasonable, fitment is always spot on. Really what else do you want? I understand that you can even custom order. Just buy some.”
“Absolutely love Wicked Grips! As you can see, this is my second piece I’ve created using their products. I always select Wicked Grips screws. Great quality!!”
“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.
