I got my 1911 cerakoted two tone with an OD green frame and fde slide. Where is the best place to look for a wide variety of grips to choose from? The wood grips don't look right on it now. Thanks in advance for any suggestions....

I am a big fan of Hogue's panel grips. They are checkered rubber in the diamond pattern and come in a variety of colors. They are as slim as you can get with regular bushings and run $12 or so a set. Very stable for a rubber grip.

VZgrips.com or raascogrips.com; I've used both and they are great to deal with.

eBay. Even if you don't buy there, it's a good place to see a bunch of options.
Practice doesn’t make perfect.
Practice makes permanent.

www.gripus.comThese guy's are in San Angelo, they make some pretty cool grips out of wood and other materials. Their prices are reasonable too.

I like the VZ grips also. Lots of different designs with varying amounts of texture and they look and feel great.

Anyone have or held the VZ Operator IIs?? I am looking for an aggressive grip for my 1911. My palms sweat a decent amount and the slick wood grips do ok, but i want more.

Don't forget to add some new screws  VZs Radiation II and Turbo screws look sharp.
