I made a recommendation to Lyman to consider making the Encore and Contender Pachy grips brown in color as an option for those of us who choose to use walnut or laminated forends but still prefer the rubber Pachmayr grips.

If any of you would like to suggest this to them as well, you can open a ticket via their Customer Service form link. I still like the black grips, but see that I'd choose brown on some applications, too.

Their response to my suggestion was that they would pass it along to the development staff.
