1911 Grip Change: Too Old School?

[stoveboltgunnut]

I agree, there is no such thing as "too old school". Gun and grips are awesome.

I'm drooling over that Tanfoglio 1911. Is that acctually made in Italy by Tanfoglio or do they import that ??Any way very nice!!

Hi there, bdb benzino

They are made in Italy and come with a total of 4 Magazines, they shoot really well, even for a left handed person, cheers from down under.

I have seen many beautiful and functional grips on 1911s, but wooden double-diamonds 'just seem to belong'...
The grips and the gun seem to be meant for each other.

Change Is Good

and with the arrival of the "other" 45, i.e., gl**k 21, the Combat Commander is shedding it's really nice Pachmayr wraparounds and the DDs are going back on. I have my eye on some beautiful variations - much like yours Grant. Or maybe all of them... They're like women, all beautiful in their own way... and they don't neuter you and take everything you own...

How do you like the Metro Arms 1911 Doc ???

My Kimber Custom II that I bought several months ago came with the black rubber grips. They are now sporting checkered rosewood double diamonds. They look fantastic on this gun. I took a pic, but can't find the cable to put the pics on here. Once I do I will post them.

If your gonna say the DD grips are "old school", do ya think a man made product would look good on this 96 year old?
