I have small hands, so "regular" sized gun handles always feel just a little big for me, especially when wearing gloves. I think the topic of Shapelock (Polymorph) handles came up recently, so I thought I would share a couple of pictures of this one that I did last night.

All in all, it took about two hours, and no tools beyond the old pot that I use to dye the shapelock black. I use the Evercoat brand of dyes (aka "coloring agent") because they are water based and therefore easy to clean up. Once saturated into the Shapelock, the dye does not bleed out in water.

I've been playing around with shapelock for handles and it seems very good. I didn't even think of the dyeing. Looks good!
