Nice grips guys.  I have Colobolo grips on my Kimber and standard wood on my Springer.  My Springer needs some new skin for sure.

Not town.....afraid I would get shot on general principle of suspicion! But a matching holster set would be very nice! Well, at least you could wear ‘em to gunshows. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

These grips just in from Yost-Bonitz - I ordered them Monday AFTERNOON, and they got here on Wednesday (Arizona to Montana) - they even had to do a cutout on the backside of the right grip for my ambi-safety.  They fit like a glove too, and they're beautiful!  Green Micarta, Diamond Cut.  I've got a front tritium sight and magazine bumpers on the way, and then this thing is combat ready!  Its got a Wilson Combat threaded guide rod, 18lb spring, shock buff, skeleton hammer, graphite trigger, ambidextrious safety, and badazz grips.  This pistol has been in my family since I was a kid, and my dad passed it on to me to carry as a duty pistol - helluva gift huh!  I got him that damascus custom blade w/ the mastadon ivory handle on it(that I posted pix of a few weeks back) to try and return the favor a little! ![[Linked Image from i163.photobucket.com]](http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t311/dzrice/P1040077.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i163.photobucket.com]](http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t311/dzrice/P1040078.jpg) Sweet!

Did you see this on the cover of Gun World. Very Cool? Jerry is the only knife company to have gun. All others, are gun makers with a knife. I would love to have one of these sets but even I don't think I can get that much JW Blue into him to pull it off.  <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/banghead.gif" alt="" />  <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> Dan |  |  |

Vance - my gunsmith told me that the graphite trigger thats on it was ideal for duty use.  I thought the same thing - I was going to go w/ a skeleton trigger just for looks, but I think I'm going to hold off for now - unless you know of a specific trigger that I should look in to.  ? i use the videcki medium trigger.. i like it alot but i have small hands ![[Linked Image from i4.photobucket.com]](http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y146/TUCKERGUN/GUNS/random002.jpg)

Some ResC 1911 grips would be interesting. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> |  |  |

Vance - nice looking 1911!  I'll probably see if I can shoot some of the other guy's pistols and see what triggers work best for me.  I like this trigger, but its the only 1911 I've ever had.  Definately a big switch from the Glock.  I find myself jerking the trigger, since I'm so used to that long even pull on the glock.  Thanks for the suggestion too.

I really do like the point and click simplicity of Glock.
