I'm very impressed that's great workmanship. I have been looking for a nice pair normal straight grip wooden ones for my 1911a1 but not prepared to pay £50 that's often quoted. Wish I had your talent.

Well you are in luck because Andy makes straight Colt grips for a very reasonable price.
He made me a set which I am very pleased with.
PM him for details.

That's a smart job Andy Personally, I'd probably prefer the black gun screws, matching the other black bits on the pistol

I must contact you about some grips myself

Very nice matey.

Thanks lads i like some of my grips a little different i think the wrap round grips really suit the colt, i used the stainless screws as i wanted them to stand out on this pistol the black ones just blended in a little too much, sniper24687066 Troy ive made a start on your grips this afternoon mate i`ll send you pics soon,

Ta.
I like Andy's grips as they are clearly handmade out of walnut.
No shiny cnc stuff.
My Colt grips look like they have been on it since 1911.
No offence Andy!
