Did the WWI and WWII 1911's have plastic or wood grips??? thanks |

Thanks. I thought the WWI models had wood grips while the WWII models had plastic. I have a new Khar Arms GI .45 and it came with plastic grips. Seems like Khar Arms did a great job with improving these pistols over the poor quality when they were under Auto Ordnance. Took it out today for the first time and put 250 rds through it and it only stove piped twice in the first 75 rds. After that it had no jams. |
Yes :) WWI (1911) had double diamond wood. WWII 1911a1s and arsenal rebuilt 1911s (almost all in military service were updated) had plastic. Most had brown plastic but I have seen some Colts N.I.B. with black. Hope this helps, Jim |
