Ahhhh.. which grip to equip.. fun game. I find I always seem to come back to checkered walnut, classic. Nice piece, has a good old school 1911 look. Many of the modern tacticool 1911's just don't quite do it for me. Though I would like to do a Wilson build in 9mm at some point.
Here is my Colt 1911 Marina Argentina, made by colt in 1914 for the Argentinian Navy. It has seen a refinish at some point in its life so I am not afraid to carry it or shoot it. It is an excellent operator, won't be winning any target comps with it but it is reliable and accurate. One of my...

You surely will not be disappointed. As stated the wait is good to build up anticipation.... and cash. I own three of JC's jackets and they represent the finest leathers I own. My California Cafe is Vicenza Horsehide and just beginning to break in after several months of solid wear and taking...
Looking for a Real McCoys C2 vest in navy, size 44. Heck I would even entertain the OD green color too. Let me know if you have one you are willing to part with.
