Why thanks you, thank you very muuuuchhh....LOL.

My/our good friend Dale (dsparkie) made the grips and I got the screws from Brownells after searching the ends of the earth locally...they ain't cheap either! But I figured they would make the oak and the casing enlay's look good, so I bought them!

What's a guy to do, no 1911 collection is complete without a compact, and if DW made one i'd have had options, but.......



A cute little gun like that needs a round bottom.

Yeah, I know the grips are'nt flat bottom for the magwell...but what can I say? They're grippier than the Kimbers were, and I LOVE that old Eagle. Still suck at posting pictures, though
