ELITE SIGNATURE SERIES 1911 GRIPS BOX ELDER BURL SET 011

An extreme colorplay deep velvety topaz blues and light aquas with yellow tans intermixed like an undersea scene.. rare and amazing to see in person. 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 wood grain in grips will differ in hue and chatoyance in different lighting.

Elite Signature series grips are crafted from the top 10% of burl we get with the addition of our precision Copper grip screw seats inset adding another elevated facet of looks and function to each set. Grip sets then see several extra hours of hand sanding and polishing, with a 2 part finishing process that brings out the inner fire of the wood in a rubbed polished look. Each set comes with our brand logo inlaid in copper as our guarantee of quality. Only Signature and Elite Signature grips get this mark!

Handcrafted from a block of highly figured Box Elder burl that has been dyed and stabilized which is a material Wicked Grips pioneered in the gun industry 2 decades ago. Handcrafted by Oliver Washburn in our Michigan workshop. Our hand crafted grips have graced the covers of numerous magazines, catalogs, and can be seen in some popular TV series and movies. We spend hours of intense labor to craft each set, slowly bringing out the beauty of the material while fitting to quality pistols to guarantee a level of fit worthy of the Wicked Grips name.

This set has been fit to Les Baer and Colt frames. 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. 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.
