They look to have outstanding craftsmanship, but I wouldn't suggest using grips with that motif on a carry gun.
Think about how they would be viewed by a jury of non-shooters after a shooting.
I did think of that, believe me I always think of that scenario. Especially when I go to gun shows and see signs that say things like "we don't dial 911." I view them as a work of art for myself to enjoy just as I would a painting on the wall of my home. This is not my EDC. I even made the decision if I were to take this one for range time I would swap them out if I were shooting more than a few hundred rounds that day.
