Reproducing the the thin, angular design of the HK P7 Series grips in wood results in a product that is much more fragile than the factory original plastic grips. This is especially true for the narrow, pointed section at the top rear of the right side panel. Improper technique and/or pressure applied during installation or removal can result in this narrow pointed section snapping off. This type of breakage is not covered by Nill's warranty and should it occur, the grip cannot be replaced by Nill (or MacTec). In such events, the sole remedy for the customer would be to ship the grip with broken piece back to Nill in Germany for repair with the cost of shipping being the customer's responsibility. If you are not comfortable with assuming this risk or this policy as stated, please do not order this item.
