Sidearms & Scatterguns leather grips 1911

Re: leather grips 1911

Very interesting, how well do they grip into your hand? I am curious as when wet, raw leather still has a lot better grip than lots of other materials.
 
Re: leather grips 1911

Those look cool!

What kind of leather you using? Cowhide or Horse?

I've never heard of leather grips for pistol. But didn't it used to be very popular for knife handles back in the day?

Keep us posted! I'd try some out if you made them available to buy!

Re: leather grips 1911

That's awesome! I really dig it! One recommendation though: a good set of 1911 grips supports the plunger tube. Maybe put a plate or something solid under the leather on the left grip panel to support the plunger tube? ?
