While I've always preferred Pachmyrs on my .45s: those sure are pretty!
(The checkered rubber grips makes it easier to deal with recoil...)

i am not a fan of hardwood grips on the 1911, need something with a bit more traction

 

[Bob Denman]

As I said:
Pachmyrs! :bowdown:
I actually like them even more, for the way that they make the draw easier: no fumbling with the grip! :clap:

Bob... If YOU were in the market for a 1911 style .45 shooter, not a show piece, what would your choice be.

 

[fjray]

I'm a big 1911 fan . I've got three, a Sig that I really like, a Sprinfield V10 ultra that is a comander size and my carry choice. My favorite shooter a my Kimber tactical custom. Always looking for another one.

 

[SPECTACUALR SPIDERMAN]

i think the spider grips would be great if i had web shooters

Rob...
You have REALLY opened up a HUGE can of worms! :2thumbs:
I'm a big fan of Colt... in spite of all of what they've done wrong. My "Main-Axe" is an eighties series stainless full-size rig. I put a McCormick trigger in it, tightened the slide and bushing, changed the cam link, and even added a titanium firing pin.
It's a "whoop-ass" shooter! :yes:
two-inch groups at 50 yards! (with open sights)

Having said all of this:
I still think that Kimber builds some real beauties.
I also had a custom build on a Caspian Frame that was a beauty.

You just can't go wrong with "Ole-Slabsides"! :bowdown:

But this is a "good" can of worms. Lol.

I would love to find a 1911A1 colt, I could afford...:shocked:

I know a guy who's uncle's and dad worked for Remington during WWII. He claims to have over 300 1911's from that time..most of which were never fired. I've seen several that appeared to be new. Was afraid to ask what he wanted for them..

 

[cmbspyderrss]

Sorry don't like any of those grips but thanks for sharing.

i do like my Pac fingers on my Sig STX though.

someday when I win the lottery I will own a Gen 1 1911 and a Gen 2 Navy

Go ahead and ASK!! nojoke
You never know what he might do for you! :clap:
I had a WWII A-1, that I used for Bullseye competition. That damn thing was still wearing what was left of it's OD green, but it sure could shoot! :bowdown:
WAYYYY better than I could!

I vote for a group buy. I'm in if can be worked out.

i wish the CA wierdos would stop with all the gun nonsense. Ammo has been to expensive to shoot so haven't done so in a while. Researching loaders currently.

If you ever get to making pistol or rifle scabbards for the Spyder, please let me know.

 

[Kwalsh]

the 1911 debate goes on, people either love them and need to have a lot of them or cant stand them and think they are the worst gun ever made.

I like them and think if you can make a gun for almost 100 years and only make small changes you have done something right

:shocked: pps:
When I quit shooting in the 2700 matches: I made a H U G E mistake... :banghead:

 

[Orange Spyder Man]

I prefer the 2011 style pistols... much lighter... which equates to a quicker draw.. and to elaborate on reloaders .... DILLON are best
