Looking for some silver 1911 grips for my gsg

[Hotvw1]

I was thinking the over the top engraved ones. I know waiting for the ridicule but thought they would be cool. I prefer the Mexican ones as the silver costs a little less. Anyone know where someone might procure those? Thx.

Hogue has aluminium ones with various designs.

Thx I have been on there site all I saw for aluminum ones were the colored ones. I had a look but didn't see anything. I want something different. But thx for the suggestion.

No I want gaudier ones than that. You know the etched scrolling. Old timey Mexican 1800's style

These are pretty ###....

I'm not ### but yes that's what I am after. Thx hitzy. They will look better after they age a bit.

I didn't mean ### in the ###ual sense...more in the fashion sense

 

[Hotvw1]

Yes I agree with they are very "out there" but that's the point. Just like I drive a vw thing because it's ugly but intriquing and not many around.

They might look better on the ruger

Bought and on there way thx everyone got them at brownells.

I think they look pretty dang sweet. You'll have to post a pic once you install them.

Wouldn't ### in the fashion sense be, really, really, good?

I guess I am still on the hunt for pewter grips. Brownells says they can't ship those up here as the grip maker is not registered to import across the border. Anyone have a used set? Thx.

Got those in Mexico, silver and gold. That's probably not what you're looking for but just wanted to show you....they make them for SA, Da, and 1911s.

Cool I should be down in Mexico this winter will have to have a look. Any issues getting those over the border?
