CUSTOM 1911 BOBTAIL GRIPS BLACK OPAL IN CARBON FIBER
Limited edition series... Bobtail carbon fiber with a sythetic opal inset top, with copper grip screw seats, and copper/brass inlays. Photos of this set were done in full natural light in our photo studio. We cannot replicate all the various different lighting situations customers may experience indoors, and grips will differ in hue and chatoyance in different lighting.
Another collaboration with our friends at Sante Fe Stoneworks, masters of gemstone and fossil work in the Knife Industry. From Miles at Santa Fe "Presenting Santa Fe Stoneworks Exotic 1911 Grips- our mission is to offer Heirloom 1911 grips with the same Craftsmanship and Fine finishes we are known for our Knives. Materials used in our grips are of some of the Finest Fossils and Natural Gemstones in the industry."

The plunger tube fitment and left side safety was fit with these quality guns in mind. While this set will fit any standard 1911, variations in plunger tube, mainspring housing pins slide release and safety levers may require added care when first installing. Do no force grips onto a gun that is not fit for this configuration. If they require extra minor fitting to your exact needs, contact us and let us assist you.
Note on installation. Care must be shown when installing and using exotic gmestone and fossil materials. Grips cannot withstand heavy abuse or rough handling. Grip screws can damage exotic material grips if over torqued. Do not overtighten grip screws. There is no need for this. Grips come with orings installed, simply snug up grip screws. You may use a small dab of blue loctite if you feel its necessary. We will not warranty any damage to grips from over tightening grip screws.
