1911 Grips question

[BryanP]

Can someone tell me if these grips will fit a RIA Tactical 1911 (ambidextrous extended safety).

Yes, they should fit.

Since the ad doesn't say if the grips are "ambi-cut" or not, you'd probably have to call and ask to be sure.

One of the reviewers said that they put a set on a Taurus PT1911...and they originally come with ambi safeties so the grips are probably ambi cut.

First review says it fits RIA but doesn't mention ambi-safety.

I replaced my Cocobolo grips on my original TRP with a VZ Grips and love them. If still have my cocobolo grips if you want me to them. Let me check and make sure they don't have the SA logo on them unless you don't mind.

I'll make you a sweet deal.

That's what made me stop and ask here.

That sounds great to me. Assuming you find them, please let me know what you think is a fair price.

In the past grips that didnt have the ambi-cut I cut them to make them fit.

I know where they are. I just have to get home tonight and get them out. You can have them either way. Just PIF.

Thanks. Much appreciated.

I had those grips on my RIA tac. I have since replaced them due to cracking. I would check out RAASCO grips http://raascogrips.com/

They are somewhat under the radar, making pricing lower than most of the big name guys. I have the dymondwood and thier micarta offerings, and I couldn't be happier.

Damn, good advice.

Looks like very nice grips for the money.

I should add, the shipping time is UNREAL. When I ordered a set of the desert micarta grips on a Saturday, they were on the gun Tuesday night.
