I just got my new Wilson grips on my Springfield. It has a few other goodies as you can see but man do I love the look of these new grips!

Those look great on the silver pistol... Did you pick them up over at 1911forum.com?

Nevermind, I see Tachyon posted them over here too. I hesitated on the Coco Bolo's and got shut out.
By the way... They still look great. |

Yes, I got the grips from Tachyon here on these boards. He is a stand up guy. I also got a Wilson 2 mag black leather belt pouch from him, like new.
I'm a happy guy now. |

rabbit,
This here Springfield can, will and does run with the big dogs all the time. I have never owned a smoother, more accurate, tighter, reliable 1911 clone, ever. I bought the "loaded" gun and added a few extras myself like the flared magwell, grips, checkering and Wilson mags. It's also the sharpest looking pistol I have ever owned. All that for about 1/2 what a comparably equipped Kimber costs. It's your money man, spend it how you like! Thanks for the compliment on the pics. |

No doubt of that here, I've seen 'em runnin full blast with the top down, great guns for the money(I will keep my Kimber though), I was just "bustin your balls" as my yankee friends like to say. |

Nice. I like that "drop in" Wilson checkered frontstrap too. I've got one in matte blue on my Springfield. It sure does help me hang onto it. [Woo HOO!]

I hear ya man. A nice checkering job on the frontstrap goes for $150-200. That Wilson "drop in" set me back a whoppin $8.50. It's solid as a rock, and makes a huge improvement in the feel and grip of the pistol. It's even better with the arched, checkered mainspring housing I added. I think I like this pistol better than my wife!
