Nope. Theyll stay on the memorial. Theyre comfy as hell.

Do you make grips with a "thin" profile? My sister is looking to replace the grips on her SIG 1911-22 for a thinner pair.

What say you?

I say yes! I can certainly do a thin grip. I'll PM you in a bit when I get home. Thanks!

Couldn't help but share these. The dark section is hard to photograph, but it's also highly burled. Finding a piece that is almost perfectly mirrored with the two-tone coloring is EXTREMELY difficult.

I'd rather my own son see me die on my feet as a free man, than watch him go, broken, into slavery.

I just threw up a little in my mouth. Don't worry though, it's from lust, not disgust.

Don't forget when you change to thin/slim grips you also need to change the bushings.
