Yeah Wayne, thats all I need! I actually enjoy doing them. They dont take near as long as knives so I can get them finished up in a couple hours. Clich, I will try some cz grips as I have a 75 compact. They will be much harder with the recess on the back though. I might just try to do a set thats flat on back and see how they fit. Mrn8, I already have plans for the Koa! I need to let it dry out a little more but there will be some grips made out of it for sure. One thing I noticed was that my gun had thin grips when I got it. The bushings are shorter which I didnt realize until I picked up my dads colt yesterday. It changes the drilling depth needed so I ordered a standard set of bushings for my gun. One thing I never liked about the 1911 was the grip thickness, these are about as thick as you can go while still being able to engage the safety.
