Is there anywhere I could get a wooden Remington 870 pistol grip here in Canada that looks sort of like this?

You can easily make one yourself by cutting down a conventional 870 stock. :)

Someone did the same with the one in your photo.

Is part of them hollow? I know my synthetic ones are hollow where the screw goes and I also remember from Terminator:D seeing a guy cut down the stock of a shotgun and it was partly hollow inside which would make it very uncomfortable to hold and you wouldn't want to shoot it.

BTW, I don't have any wood stocks for my 870s. All I have known are synthetics.
 
I think your best bet would be as janesy mentions above.

I really like look of bird's head grips. :) Very nicely fashioned, I think.

Look in the photo gallery forum under shotguns, someone here has some photos of one in there.

speedfeed make a synthetic bird's head grip, but not a wooden one. I've kinda wanted a wood one for my grizz for some time now, but it always gets the back burner for some reason. After watching the new batman movie again, I think I am going to source one out for the old girl.
 
A word of caution on cutting down a wood stock, it would technically make it a prohib a believe, just like cutting your barrel below 18".

It doesn't matter that that's how the factory does it as well (at least it looks that way to me).

If I'm wrong someone will be along quickly to correct me.
 
If you can find a factory made one, that's ok, but you can't cut one down, or even have a gunsmith do one. This has been gone over before, and yes we know it's stupid. Factory made = ok, Sawed off= prohib.
 
it will only become prohib if you cut down the butt and it reduces the overall length to < 26". so, on a 12" barrel 870 you would have to leave a bit more wood than just the pistol grip to leave it NR. You could make up something like a mare's laig to keep it NR.
