John Oberlies used a curved bottom grip, often with an ivory or horn inlay.
Thanks
Yes I like John O's grips much more and his for the most part were like the Marlin ones, maybe not as pronounced as Marlin's but the certainly not backwards as the one at the top of this thread is. (
MO ) I like the curve just not the layout of the one at the center of this thread.
Made from horn or ebony or blued steel is fine, however ivory or white line spacers, not so much. There was a time for that but its time has passed, IMO
