I just ordered myself a Les Baer Premier II. Should be at my FFL on Monday. Then I fill out the paperwork and have to wait 10 days before it can come home. In the meantime I will have to buy som more ammo so that I can keep it well fed. The picture is from the catalog, but this is what it will look like and I will have a picture of the actual gun when I get it.

fxntime, I just noticed what the engraving on you grips is. Where did you get it? I think that it looks great! Those are the original LB grips that came with the gun. It's an earlier LB, I don't think they use those grips anymore. I sorta thought they were a bit "tacky" but it [the 1911] only cost me a bit over a grand [from what I can see, it was used VERY little] so I'm not complaining. Getting used to the grips but they still seem somewhat "modern" looking for the firearm design.The design is actually done quite well, I'd assume they were laser engraved. |

Yep, those are early Les Baer grips. I remember seeing them back when Les's guns first started showing up around the Birmingham area several years ago. |
