That TALO is sweet for sure, congrats.

Whats the finish on it? Parked?

Got my VZ Aliens on my Kimber Desert Warrior. Not sure if I like the look but the feel is awesome.

I think the grips are a good match for your pistol

This is a nice looking pistol. Odd though that they used a pre-a1 style slide stop.

Probably left over from their run of 1911 retros...

NAA.

Kind of what I was thinking. Still seems odd, if they were going to the trouble of making an "accurate" part for one, why not for the other? Just thinking out loud I guess.

1. Lazy
2. Don't know any better
3. part 1 and 2
4. didn't really think about it

I think its 4 myself. They are a business. Yes they know what a bunch of nerds some of their customers are, but I doubt they have anyone really pointing out these little errors. Such is life, but I do always give a business extra points for being on the ball.

We are nerds, and we like our 1911's to be correct.

Sorry, that was me on my bro's account,

Any opinions expressed were only meant to convey humour and the failure to do so was a direct cause of not having had enough fermented hops (or too much). Any offense received is completely unintended.

Don't have an older 1911, so I played with my SA for the GI looks.

I can finally contribute to this here thread:
