VZ Grips is offering a new texture called Fallout. The new texture features a mix of larger blocky elements and more aggressive dimpled areas. VZ classifies this as “aggressive”.
The new Fallout texture is available only on standard thickness grips (not available for slim grips). They are available with a number of bottom cuts, safety cuts, and magazine release scoop options.
January 20th, 2020: VZ Grips® is proud to announce its new legendary giveaway; VZ Grips has teamed up with two of the country’s premier custom 1911 builders to bring a one-of-a-kind custom 1911 to life. Jason Burton of Heirloom Precision and Pete Single of Pete’s Custom Shop, each a well renowned 1911 specialist (and industry partners with VZ Grips) have combined their unique talents and skill sets to craft this special project.
Built on a 5” 45 ACP, Springfield Armory Custom Shop frame & slide set. The pistol is assembled with the highest quality parts available. All critical parts are machined from bar-stock tool steel or forgings, heat treated and checked for proper Rockwell hardness (no castings are used). Every part enjoys some custom touch, each detailed to insure proper fit and function. The entire pistol is softened and smoothed for comfort of concealed carry, then finished in a deep, rich, classic bluing. To finish off this amazing pistol build VZ Grips provided their new Hyrda pattern burl G10 stocks.
The pistol will be on display all throughout the SHOT show at the VZ Grips booth #2243
The duo merged their individual styles into one showpiece with the following work and features:

About VZ Grips: VZ Grips was started in 2003 by John VanZyck in hopes of creating the perfect aftermarket compliment for production pistols. He started designing & manufacturing textured grip solutions that would aid the shooter in proper grip and form. John (being an avid competitive shooter) used Intel gained from competing in countless matches, and researching fellow shooters demand for a “Better Grip”. VZ now offers various grip options for guns like the 1911, Sig Sauer, Beretta, CZ pistols all the way to S&W revolvers. VZ’s OEM work has also allowed them to bring the customer this option straight out of the box. Their clients include companies like Remington, Kimber, Ed Brown, Para Ordnance, Dan Wesson, Wilson Combat, Nighthawk Customs, and even Strider Knives. VZ Grips prides themselves on the quality of their products, and the fact that they are MADE IN THE U.S.A. THE VZ WAY.
You know VZ Grips but it’s time to get acquainted with VZ Daggers. These non-metallic daggers are made from your choice of G-10 and Carbon Fiber. These are designed to be piercing tools with a wedged point, a heavily textured grip, a flared pommel, and a thumb index divot that is reminiscent of the venerable OSS Thumb Daggers.
The VZ Daggers come in three sizes: small, medium, and large. They are called the Discrete, Don, and Executive respectively. All three sizes are available in Black G-10, Grey G-10, or Carbon Fiber. The Executive and Discrete share the same “argyle” grip pattern while the Don features a heavily grooved grip pattern. All three models are fullered and have lanyard holes.
Keep an eye on VZ’s Dagger product page for new additions coming soon: VZGrips.com

They are available in a variety of colors and several of VZ Grip’s well known texture patterns.
