twan Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Where can i score some nice plain wood grips like in the above picture? Every seller i contacted so far on ebay either won't ship to europe, or doesn't want to sell gun parts anymore since the egay policy change Link to post Share on other sites
Korppi Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Manufactured by CAW. I got them from GnG at 300HKD (about 30e). Link to post Share on other sites

oddxbird Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 (edited) Funny story about the Surefire is that I looked for one everywhere for months and I ended up seeing a guy who posted pics of a 1911 a few years ago and he had the 310r installed on him so I messaged him asking him to sell it to me. I ended up paying a big price for it, my friend saw it was jealous and started looking. He found one for half the price I paid mine, just dumb luck and he ended up never installing it and reselling it for the same price. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nice, i am still posting on 1911 forums for the 310 or even the 610 sell it to me? haha Edited August 6, 2007 by oddxbird Link to post Share on other sites
chris u'5 Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 Korppi, The wooden grips on your 1911 look great. Im very impressed. Chris Link to post Share on other sites
Korppi Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 chris u'5, Thanks mate I think wooden grips would make even a basic magnatech look and feel trice as good. Installing metals can get you to meddle with the insides too much. If anyone wonders what BDU is in the background, it is the FDF M05. More pictures can be found in the digital camo topic.

chris u'5 Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 Korppi, Could I please ask a question regarding your CAW grips? Did they come with metal weight inserts? I would like to fit them to my TM 1911A1 but I dont want to lose any weight on the pistol. Many thanks Chris Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 (edited) 1. The answer is no. Real Wood grips don't have inserts. 2. Can we keep the chatter down a little, 1 pic/11 posts isn't a good ratio (and now it's 12 because of this one!) There is not only a WA thread, but also a TM 1911 thread in the 'Just Handguns' section of this website. The picture thread is not for lengthy discussions and repeated questions. ta. edit - dont apologise! Just make sure you ask questions in the right sections when they're likely to have come up before.. Edited August 6, 2007 by hardboiledcop Link to post Share on other sites
chris u'5 Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 I realise real wood grips don't have inserts but these grips appear to be designed specifically for airsoft 1911s. (I have researched various retailers) I'm sorry to upset you regarding the posts. All the best Chris Link to post Share on other sites

GRIM!

What do u 1911's fantics think? good or bad? Edited August 6, 2007 by GRIM! Link to post Share on other sites
Fuser Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 It still looks like a Hi Capa, I rather like true 1911's. Link to post Share on other sites

Philip Aram Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 (edited) Hey guys lets say If I wanted to make my SD slide black (2 toned right now). Is there anyways to make it black without painting it, like just dying the metal black or something? I don't want to anodize or anything because you need like battery acid, electrolytes, and all this stuff. If anyone has experiance with dying metal and such please tell me. edit: Or if anyone on the forums anodizes stuff for people thanks phil Edited August 6, 2007 by Philip Aram Link to post Share on other sites
GRIM! Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 It still looks like a Hi Capa, I rather like true 1911's. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Im not trying to make it into a 1911, i just wanted a cross between new and old. Link to post Share on other sites
hardboiledcop Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 Im not trying to make it into a 1911, i just wanted a cross between new and old. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> get some of those TK grips and it'll look quite nice Link to post Share on other sites
hkssr20det Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 I really think the TK grip is much higher quality than the SD one. Plus it does make the gun look more like a 1911. Link to post Share on other sites

FearBefore Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 (edited) Brand new Western Arms Kimber Warrior, i've been kicking myself for not buying a WA sooner. I've added a Pearce grip enhancement, makes aiming from the draw easier than looking down the scope of a sniper on a bipod. The Trades, which thankfully were left untouched by airsoftgi EDIT for those of you with sharp eyes, yes that silver screw does not come on the gun, I lost the original while installing the grip enhancement, luckily its takes the same size allen key as the other screws Edited August 7, 2007 by FearBefore Link to post Share on other sites
