Current grips are VZ Gator Backs:


Grips I'm considering:

Alumagrips

NH Golf Ball Grip (Basically NH Gunners)

VZ Gunner
Earth Brown:

Military Brown:

Black:


I'm torn and would like to buy them all, so I'm asking you to do my wallet and I a favor and help me choose. Right now I'm leaning toward the NH Golf Ball in Tan or the Gunners in Military Brown.

Although this pic of a Predator Recon with Alumagrips has me eyeing them as well:

I really like military brown on a all black 1911... These are aliens on a Custom Colt XSE

Yeah, I've never had brown grips but they definitely look good, IMO.

If you want a aggressive grip like the one you already have I would cross the alumagrips off the list.

I never thought of the Gator Backs as aggressive. My first 1911 was a SA TRP with grips that almost require a freaking pair of gloves, so the GB's were very smooth by comparison.

There is no place for Toonces in my house, especially on my guns.

The 20 LPI checkering of the TRP is what makes it a meat grinder.

I can't decide which color looks best. I've tossed around most of these colors along with green for an upcoming grip purchase and I can't settle on anything
