Ed brown bobbed MSH and thin Alumagrips cost about $150. I supplied the labor and the Cerakote finish. I suspect that I have at least 10 hours in the project. I prefer the feel of the bobtail grip.

Nice job. I do love the way a bobbed 1911 feels in my hand, too. I have a CBOB and while I first thought the bobbed grip looks funny, that thought went away when I shot it!
Nice work, I have built one bobtail gun (a stainless commander) and really like the feel as well. I ordered my frame with the hole drilled in the correct place and just had to fit the part from there. Did you buy a jig to relocate the MSH hole?
I'd like to do that to my Ultra Crimson Carry II but it might take away too much of the already short grip. Even just rounding off the sharp edge would help though.
Nice job! I don't thnk I would be brave enough to do this myself to my 1911... I would like this done to mine but I have asked my local pistol smith the cost...
