MY NEW RIA 1911

[Guest bkelm18]

Up three post. That guy!! with a chick named web-site

I don't think its a guy that makes the grips, fairly certain its a woman named Esmeralda.

Sorry for the confusion, I wasn't talking about Esmeralda (who is, in fact, a chick) though Kim Ahrends DOES have a chick name (but is, in fact, a guy!)

[Guest bkelm18]

Too much androgyny for a 1911 thread.

[Guest sermon8r]

Esmeralda still makes the best looking grips for 1911s IMO.

Cool, you finally got it. I really like the two tone...

Yea man I was surprised how nice it looked. I like the Pachs OK, but they are going to get traded out for Custom Alumagrips as soon as I can afford them. I'm gonna put some work into this gun.

What kinda work ya gona do to it?

It's that 2 tone thing man,it just makes me feel all warm and fuzzy

Probably gonna add a mag well, polish the feed ramp, and add night sights for starters. I'll replace the recoil spring with a Wilson Combat spring after the break in period.

Nice, Punisher. Keep it handy so I can shoot it, `k?

[MudBugjr]

Nice! When I picked mine up they had a two tone. It was about 30$ more than my parkerized.

Sure thing man. I'm hoping to put a few rounds through it tomorrow. I came down with something today and feel horrible.

They seem to add a lot of bulk to the grip, too much for my taste. Nice looking though, can't wait to shoot it next time i'm up.

Heres my inexpensive grips. Just installed. I like the feel. I think I need to build me a light box next. My pic's suck.
