hardwood grips for Norinco M-1911A1C

[Grotto]

I am planning on picking up a M-1911A1C, and as the grips are likely poor I was wondering if aftermarket grips will fit the Norinco. I want hardwood grips like ebony, walnut, or red oak. Where is the best place IN CANADA to pickup good hardwood grips.

Give Laredo a PM. He hooked me up with some nice ones for mine. He builds them himself and he's in Sask. Otherwise any grips will fit and they tend to pop up in the EE.

Is it an optical illusion or is the bottom grip scew off center?

Illusion I think. The grip fits snugly around the threaded boss on the frame and the screw is centered on it.

That is really close to what I am looking for. I prefer plain wood grips like your oak grips, but double diamonds in cherry or mahogany look good also.
