OldGuy Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 For those of you who own an HG500, how are you doing with it? Mine won't budge! We'll see how it goes after I have found a way to season it. http://216.77.188.54/coDataImages/p/Groups...8588AUT0902.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGuy Posted March 24, 2005 Author Share Posted March 24, 2005 The gripper is unstamped, so no number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldGuy Posted March 24, 2005 Author Share Posted March 24, 2005 The selling of the HG400 & 500 grippers reminds me of a store I knew in London that held a closing down get them while you can sale for 30 years. In other words there is no end to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt. crushalot Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 The gripper is unstamped, so no number. ← Interesting! The HG website says that 300 HG500s have been made and are stamped on the bottom of the handles. If yours is not stamped, you may have a real collectors edition on your hands. Thanks for posting the photo. That is one HUSKY looking gripper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GatorGrip Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Maybe they made only a certain number of numbered stamped ones. We will just have to see if anyone says they have a number and someone else reports the same number. Now those will definitely cause a stir. So far I have heard of the regular Ltd. numbered ones, the London Kettle Bell ones, the non-numbered seconds on e-bay. I am curious to know exactly how many limited 500 and 400 grippers were actually made. It is probably like the old Tootsie Roll Pop commercial where the kid asks Mr. Owl how many licks does it take to get to the center of Tootsie Roll Pop. One, Two, Three Crunch!!! The world may never know. I own a 500 # 55 and a 400 # 62 so if anyone else has those numbers let me know and we’ll go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
