1911 Grips

Who makes the best? What do you recommend? I have a series 70 Gold Cup Colt 45. Love that gun but the bright blue grips are nice but I think I'd like some pearl white or wood grips better. Don't want to put junk ones on it.

If you want wood grips that really stand out check out Altamont. I have their grips on a few guns and get a LOT of compliments on them.

I also prefer to use these with 1911 grips:

I have VZ's on mine, started with a set of standard scooped Operator grips then switched to a set of scooped Slimline Frags.

+1 for Lok Grips. Great product and great customer services. Got these a few months ago.

Are your “blue” grips aftermarket as I’ve never seen blue grips on a series 70 GCNM. I have seen blue G10 grips on recent production NM pistols. IMO, you need some grips like this for your 1911

Great taste! I have the same olive drab & black LOKs on my SW 1911. Just got a new set of grips from LOK for my Beretta 92. Customer service is great. If you have any questions & call them, the owner will probably be who answers. Not the lest expensive, but the fit & finish hasn't any required any additional work on either gun.

Got blaze has the correct answer, unless you’re a pimp daddy.

here's a photoshop ... Rosewood Diamond grips with allen screws ... I would ditch the flathead screws and go with Allen. Your pistol is a modern version of the original Series 70 that was produced from 1970 - 1983. IMO, the wood grips make it look more vintage like an original Colt. Just my opinion, buy what you like.
