1911 Grip Suggestions

Took me a little while to come to a decision, but picked these up for a song at the Rickreall show today. Striped teak wood hand made in Thailand. What do y'all think?

I like these. The striping is cool. I'm a fan of the double diamond style and would have chosen a set like this with the double diamond. Best thing is that you can very easily swap for another set if you so desire.

Come on man. You've already shown your good taste by swapping to a Kimber.
Continue your good judgement and pick what floats YOUR boat.

Where does one go to purchase some of Larry's grips? I've been looking for a while and his website has been down and other sites that carry his grips are all out of stock.

Since you asked, I say.......... meh. I don't have a problem with wood, but those ones just seem a little plain for such a nice 1911. That being said, it really doesn't matter what I or anyone else thinks. It only matters that you like them.

Spray-n-pray, I guess I was going for "understated elegance" rather than "plain", but I definitely did ask.

Yes, that's what I meant. I just didn't word it so eloquently.

Davidson's sight is down currently. I'll probably go with VZ or 10-8 grips.

i like the Gunners, they're black but look grey when new...

If they they too aggressive, use the included sandpaper to knock the points down......

I had the stock Kimber grips on my tactical custom II and they looked so nice I couldn't change them.They were just wood grips.Those rosewood grips look pretty good.
Made to order for the ole 1911

I do like those Gunner grips, those were a serious contender, and I think will be what goes on the Kimber Warrior I want next.

And yeah, the grips on the Tactical line are beautiful, the ones that came on my Tac Pro II are kind of charcoal colored wood, and definitely not going anywhere.
