Who is making grips for Ranger other than NAA. Vang does not. Anyone else?

I don't know why most of the magnum grips wouldn't work on an RII. What am I missing?

The Vang's will likely Ned to be sanded/filed a little where the catch comes up over the top. The part of the Vang's that serve as a recoil whiled fit close enough to the frame the catch will not clear. Just takes a little time and just a little patience. Otherwise, any grip for a magnum frame will fit, as long as they don't fit the frame close like the Vang's do.

Ok I get it now. The ones I made for my gun would fit...

Ive taken the vang mag grips off my pug and applied to ranger and its not even close. Much more than sanding needed.

  Just gotta carve out for going over the shield , use a rasp file then smooth out with fine grit sand paper . Slowly but surely always checking for coverage , want to take off just enough no more no less .Good luck you can do it .
TO ARMS , TO ARMS the liberal socialists are coming . Load and prime your weapons . Don't shoot till you see their UN patches or the Obama bumper stickers , literally . And shoot any politician that says he wants to help you or us .

   On the grips . Is there any other place ? Myself I thing Cvang grips are bogus anyhow if you enlarge the grips that much you just might as well carry a snub 38 .

a pic with a pointer to area to carve out would build my confidence. Also a top down pic
Of one thats been done. Gaps are unacceptable to me.
