Altamont and "The Expendables"

Altamont Company is proud to supply Hollywood on occasion.

Here is a picture of one of our grips sneaking its way into the trailer for "The Expendables" (which, by the way, looks to be an excellent movie...for reasons other than our product). The beautiful gun is a custom Kimber Gold Combat II

Please note: Altamont Company does not claim any rights to the above image; it is publicly available on the trailer for the movie "The Expendables" directed by Sylvester Stallone.

The Original Python Grip is Back! ....soon.

The Original Python Grip shown on factory models in the 70s & 80s is once again being produced by Altamont Company.

Stay tuned.

Plodding into the Twenty First Century

Altamont Company values technology.  We have advanced high speed machining, robotic vision, automatic data collection from CNCs, etc.

And yet, this thing called a website continues to befuddle us.

We make grips.  Not websites.  At least, not really yet.

Hopefully more of both to come soon!  Enjoy!
