Dear Harbans:

Having just completed the manuscript for my new Random House book, STEEL CANVAS: The Art of American Arms, I wanted to write to let you know how important your outstanding grips are to the creation of beautiful handguns in the contemporary period.

Whether for my own engraving craftsmen, in American Master Engravers, Inc., or the fine work of other artisans, your grips have set a high standard. Only you could have come up with workable mother-of-pearl, which we used on the highly demanding U.S. Historical Society "American Eagle" Colt 1860 Army, created by Tiffany & Co. And only you can come through when we need exotic woods, ivory, or other materials.

Despite what some might think, the best of the gun engravers of today are equal to or superior to the best of the past 500 years.

Eagle Grips helps to make possible this high level of artistry.

Congratulations, and many thanks. You, Raj, and your family and associates have contributed significantly to the high standards of today's custom gun industry.
