I really like the ACT mags, easy to load and I've never had a feeding issue with mine. I'd like to get more of em....if anybody wants to part with theirs.

Haha, I know, these grips won't sit well with a lot of 1911 enthusiasts, but it's not like it's a permanent modifcation so no harm done, just a little fun. The girps are aluminum and although they are not exactly like the ones shown on their website (http://www.dlsports.com/watchmen_smiley_face_1911_grips.html), I'm still happy with the ones I got. They feel smooth (maybe a little too smooth for some), and the finish on them is pretty nice.
I do like the original grips that came with the R1 so I may switch it up sometimes.

$50 from Cabela's. It was $20 more than a Plano twice as big so so I figured what the hell, extra 20 bucks, why the hell not. At the time, they only had the tan, but it's growing on me......so much so that I went back and got the 1750 in tan as well, haha!
Not a big fan of the grips huh?

Wanstalls have some Colt M1911's
Changed out my Kimber Desert Warriors MSH for an Ed Brown Magwell and some VZ O2 grips. Much better now.
Very nice! I have a Kimber Desert Warrior and love the thing but had to do some work to get it 100% reliable. Did you ever get early slide lock? Rounds still in the mag but slide locking back? Works amazing now. I have a Wilson Combat Bulletproof slidestop installed among other things. Still need to get around to getting a magwell. Another thing, for the price of the gun why in the world didn't they do some front strap checkering! I have Pachmayr wrap around grips on mine so I guess it doesn't matter. lol
