My New RIA 1911 Tactical 9mm

[Mr.Sparkle]

What do you think of the various grip options?

Stock

Maple Grips from eBay

DuraGrips

Yah, I know the rollmark is kinda ugly. I may use some cold blue to attempt to hide it. Haven't decided yet.

Thanks for looking!

I kinda like the look of the dura grips. Probably more functional with the texturing too.

 

[ambishooter]

I like the DuraGrips. Black might look better.

 

[cableguy]

Big fan of OD.

And the stippling is cool looking too.

 

[Trinimon]

Congrats. I like the OD one best of the lot but that's just me.

 

[Mr.Sparkle]

I'm a OD "junky" too!

 

[Pistolwhiptricks]

DuraGrips but the color just doesn't work IMO.

Black.

I'd spray the 3rd set of grips with matte black Krylon & call it a day.

I do like the look of the 2nd set of grips, though.

Nice pistola.

DuraGrips makes the same set in black, but I was also thinking of coyote tan...

As far as what makes it "tactical"? Not sure. That was the RIA model designation that I ordered.

 

[bfiles]

Either #2 or #3 for me. I more towards #2 just cuz im more of a wood kinda guy.

 

[Spawn-Inc]

wooden grips = Not tactical.

i like the duragrips the best!

 

[Mr.Sparkle]

Here is the latest version... I added a magwell and a set of maple magwell grips.

I have also taken your suggestions and ordered a set of black magwell DuraGrips. More pics to follow!

I have one. They are great guns. What makes it tactical is the sights on it. extened palm safety. Magwell is open up.ambi safety extended recoil guide spring Others are GI models with different sights the front is pinned yours is slotted so you can move it
