This one is quite a long shot. Shown is my Italian 1943 Torino Model 1900 flare gun. It was so rusty when I got it, I could barely open the barrel. After mucho oil and elbow grease, it works just fine now. As seen, it lacks grips. They came either in aluminum or plastic. I want a set. Repros would be just fine. My google-fu was not strong enough to find any. SW kit2 002 (1024x832).jpg [ 782.79 KiB | Viewed 7897 times ] |

Steve have you thought about "broomhandle grips" and either modify them or use as a pattern to make new grips? I've got a couple of pairs if that will work. |

I just looked at my C-96 and the shape is a bit off. Thanks, though!! SW |

They don't look as if they'd be hard to make with hand tools, well, except for the checkering. I have several grips from box lots at auctions, but I don't think there are any that could be adapted to suit. I'll look (un-pile crap in shop, look in every box, especially ones labeled 'nails & electrical stuff' ... you wouldn't expect to find these in a box marked 'grips' would you?; re-pile crap in shop) and if I find anything that might suit, I'll PM you. There have been several flare guns in a number of recent auctions but I wasn't interested so never noted what they went for or even what make ... I suspect most were British or American. |
