Default 97 Heritage Springer Pipes

Hello,
I'm attempting to help a bud locate what brand of pipes he has on his 97 Heritage Springer. So far we can not locate any brand markings on the head pipes, heat shields or mufflers. The pipes are true duals with fishtail muffler bodies. The mufflers do not have removable fishtail tips and do not have baffles or provisions for baffels - they are one piece design. The muffler bodies have mounts situated on the side that are open slots, made for carriage style bolts. We have checked multiple aftermarket pipe and muffler manufacturers and none of them have anything close to the design.
Any help would be appreciated.

Just a thought but do you have any pics, that might help to identify the pipes?

Thanks, we've already checked Sampson, no joy. If they did make them, they no longer do, at least the way these were made. Funny thing is that neither the head pipe, heat shield or muffler bodies have and ID marking or branding.

Looks to me like something that could have come from JC Whitney. I had a pair of mufflers from JC,on a '83 Classic,they were good sounding mufflers.
