I just put them on my 2300KT last night, like Art, I like e'm better than the RB walnut grips that were on it  :D

To be honest Brian, I like them a lot more than some aftermarket ones.

Yup, even with a fair wedge of $15, they are far less $ and more comfortable than many of the afermarket wood grips out there, I even improved my hold and groups with e'm!  :D :-*

Those guns look ready for lots of shooting!  Actually i have bought all the exact same stuff as you for my 1322, added the beautiful walnut grips from ralph, and even did the|P-rod grip frame swap (only $45 and man what a phenomenol difference in the trigger!!! I advise the mod if you are thinking about that - it is not very hard to do at all.)

Anyway i had just received a 12" barrel from Charles Mellon, plus a solid hammer for the P rod tirgger conversion that i have yet to install.  Mr Mellon takes a while but i know he really puts his heart and soul into his parts, and i'm hoping the barrel once i install it will be the most accurate yet.  Anyway i also installed a 6" barrel shroud too.  It is soldi, Mr Mellon wont put in baffles.  Even so, i had to try it out for sound reduction, and I couldn't believe it - since the barrel isnt on yet i had to hold it tight to the end of my barrel and dry fire it.  Man what a difference in the sound!  Since its solid i didn't think there would be any difference at all but there is QUITE a difference.  If noise reduction is important to you, one of his shrouds is worth a try - if i buy another shroud i'll go for a longer one, but at just 6" i think the sound signature reduction is pretty good even at 7 pumps its way more quiet. 

the only problem with it is the hole in the shroud, that slides over the barrel was machined too narrow.  So i am going to have to drill it out some before i fit it permanently. If i mess it up of course, there's a danger of pellet strikes but the noise reduction will be well worth it, if only i can fit it right!  This shroud cost me $20 from charles.

Here's my gun with the stock barrel, RB super pumper before i fit the grips,, airgunsmith FT piston and Bushnell trophy XT red dot site, and chavka barrel band.   once i fit the barrel and shroud the gun's done.  Then comes accurizing and im hoping to get a one-hole shooter at 50 feet with 10 pumps, that's my ultimate goal.
