In their own words.
Testimonials
My Rami grips are so great. I was shooting my third IDPA match with the
Rami. The RO said, "I see you joined the gun of the month club" . I said,
"No, still shooting my Rami, just new grips". When he had seen the holstered
gun, he didnt recognize it and thought it was a whole new gun !!
I suppose I have joined the "gun of the month club" now. I finally got a CZ
75. I have not shot it, BUT I have ordered a set of Cocobolo Tung oil only
grips. I dont think I would have bought the gun if I didnt know I could
"upgrade it" it Mr Peks fine grips. Check (Czech) out this set of grips with
the totally different finish....the Tung oil only is a fantastic and unique
finish.

Dear Hakan,
I have received the grips that you have created for me. I have
spent several days attempting to express my satisfaction with your
craftmanship. I must say that they are perfect. You have created exactly
what I wanted.
I must express my satisfaction in several different ways.
1. I feel that every item a person owns must be an extension of his
or her personality. My personality seeks simplicity and the highest
level of quality possible. You have created the simplicity and the level
of quality that I seek.
2. The true test of an artist is the creation of beauty on the
simplest and most basic level. The grips that you created for me prove
the validity of that statement.......beyond any doubt.
It would be an understatement to say that I am satisfied with the
grips. It would be much more accurate to say that you have created two
pair of grips that will make my CZ40 and my CZ75 family heirlooms.
Yes......I am a very satisfied customer and I do hope that my words
can convey the level of pride that I experience whenever myself or
others handle these two firearms.
Sincerely, R

Hi Hakan,
I picked up the grips this morning and to say I'm pleased would would be an
understatement. They're better than I expected, my god they're perfect! The
fit and finish is flawless, the color exactly what I hoped for, and the
grain is beautiful. You are a wizard. This afternoon I'll be taking some
pictures of them (probably not as well as you do) and will email them to you
this evening.
Thank you very much,
Jeff

Hakan,
I got the grips early this morning and spent the day at the range after
putting them on the firearms (today was the first rain/snow/ice free day all
week). The Shadow grips are totally amazing! I can't be happier! The
pictures you sent don't even come close to doing them justice. The way the
light plays off of the walnut oil finish, they look like a wood 3D hologram.
Needless to say, every other person at the range wanted to know where I got
them, so I was able to evangelize CZ firearms and Hakan grips at the same
time. Without a doubt, they are the nicest grips I have ever seen.

Hakan,
"I received the grips today in the mail, and quite honestly, I am THROUGHLY
impressed with your work. They are excellent, I cannot think of any way else
to put it. I will recommend these to CZ owners, and post these on the boards
(cz9mm on CZ Forum, and The Silver Bullet 1719 on The High Road). It still
feels a little odd with them on since I'm used to the horrible thumbrest
grips that were on mine, but the grip and feel is superb. If I do end up
getting a CZ P-0, I'm emailing you back with another order. If I had to wait
a whole year, it would have been worth it. Keep up the good work my friend,
:) "
In CZ heaven,
Josh.

Hi Hakan,
I was very happy to comment on your work. You are obviously very talented
and a person of integrity. I hope to do business with in the future.

"Hakan,
I just mounted them on my cz and they are wonderful! It is obvious how much
craftsmanship and care go into each set of grips. They completely changed
the look and feel of the gun for so much the better. You have definitely
earned a customer and a reference who will share his opinion to anyone who
will listen. Thank you. Craig "

Thanks again my good friend. Take care."

Reply My new set of Hakan's Grips just arrived!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My new Flame Birch grips for my CZ75B .40 just came by registered mail
today. They are absolutely wonderful! The photos of the flame birch grips on
Hakan's webpage just don't do them justice. They're the best looking grips
I've seen. The fit is perfect - I just took the factory grips off and
screwed the new ones on. I can't wait to get them out to the range and try
them out. They feel terrific in my hand.
Hakan and I corresponded by email a bit regarding them. He's an incredibly
responsive individual and a meticulous craftsman. I'm thrilled with the
grips.
Pics will follow in this thread when I get home from the office and can get
my camera out (unless She Who Must Be Obeyed has other plans for us after
work, then they'll be added the first chance I get )
If you read this, Hakan - wonderful work! I just love them! Thanks!
James

Arrived, my Hakan's Custom Grips that is, let me just echo what everyone
else says, they are truly the work of an artist. I got the Olive Wood,
the grips are simply beautiful and the fit is perfect. I've yet to go to
the range with them and to be honest I always really liked the feel of
the stock grips but these are both comfortable and very impressive
looking. I will try to get a picture posted at some point with my PCR.
Hakan did send me pictures of the grips alone and I hope he posts them
either here or to his web site. Again if anyone is considering grips, Mr
Hakan Pek has one great product and is very communicative and a pleasure
to deal with. We discussed several wood options (e-mail) before the
choice of Olive Wood was made. I could not be more pleased with the
service and product!

Yes, they arrived some time last week. I was absolutely thrilled with them.
They are the finest grips I have ever bought for any of my pistols!!!! I
would recommend you highly. Keep up the good work!
David.

Your work is terrific and it seems that many people really like the style

Many Thanks,

Hey--
Just got the grips today...fit, look, and feel are all wonderful. I like
the width fine and the rounded top surface feels better, more natural to me
than the stock grips which are flatter in cross section. Had no need for
the flat washers, fit great without them with the screws just below the grip
surface and not protruding. I am also pleased with the blackout grip
surface which feels sandpapery but is still nicely finished and not rough
looking. Overall, I'm very happy and look forward to outfitting future cz's
with your grips!

Mr. Pek,
I've recieved both sets of grips and installed one set already. They fit
beautifully and most importantly, eliminate that loose feel of the stock
grips. I'm looking forward to shooting the pistol. The other set goes to my
brother for Christmas. It is a pleasure doing business with you.
Thank you,
Walt.

Dear Haken,
I received the grips. They look terrific and they fit perfectly. I used
them at the range last Saturday and they were very comfortable. They are
everything that I hoped they would be and they were well worth the wait.
Thank you, very much,
Larry
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haken,
Sorry for the late reply, we have been on holiday for the past few weeks. I
received the grips in perfect condition and couldnt be more pleased with
them. I have never seen prettier grips. I think the most amazing thing
about them is the quality of material and workmanship for the price. you
could easily ask 3 times as much and it would be a bargain. You are a true
Artisan. I
Thanks again.
Burke.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Haken The grips are perfect But We have a problem
I like these so much that, I need another pair for my new pistol (1911),
Same specs please.
Faisal.

Hello Hakan,
Just a short note to say the grips arrived okay and fit better than anything
I have ever put on a pistol. The Leopardwood is beautiful and goes along
with the parkerized finish very well. I would recommend it as it
complements matte finishes well. Thanks again for the outstanding
work.Please know that I always recommend your work as it is unsurpassed and
worth every dollar. Take care and best wishes.
Sincerely, Tom

Hello, Hakan !!
I just went to the post office to take delivery of my grips! All I can say
is WOW - The pictures do not do the grips justice. You really have to see,
feel and SMELL the wood. Very smooth and lots of class. I will be sure to
post some pictures within the next couple of days.
Thanks for everything. These are awesome indeed.
Sincerely
Jason.
