Just like the title says. There are a ton of companies out there that make custom ones. I'm "pimping" out a 1911 and want wood grips with my AF function badge inlaid into it (about the size of jump wings). Not etched, but a real badge put in the wood. The other side will have my rank inlaid into it. Is this possible? And who will do it and do a good job?

I’m in no big rush but I want the whole pistol done by my retirement in 2 years. And yes I will be using a Colt as a base gun. (I don't have a colt yet) I have not decided on which model. And yes, I will post pics of build and final product.  

Thanks

Two to try would be:
Wicked grips  http://www.wickedgrips.com
and
Esmeralda http://www.esmeralda.cc
From looking at their websites be prepared to drop some coin, but both have fairly good reviews on the net.

Thanks everyone. Great start for me. I have around 30 days till I rotate home and I needed some recommendations on this. I will be back to ask about other things about "pimpin" my 1911 up. I have in my head what I want, I just got to get with smiths and such to see how feasible it all will be.

Thanks again

Don't over look Larry Davidson's grips.
He will make most anything you want done.
I own two pair, one 1911, one BHP.Very happy with them.
