Pachmayr 02921 Signature W/Out Backstrap, Colt 1911 Combat, Black (02921)

Excellent quality product that solves all your standard-frame grip problems. Pachmayr has long since been the authority on aftermarket gun grips -they are the standard that all other grips are judged on, and if you order this for your Government or Commander-sized 1911, you'll immediately see why. As you can imagine, these are easy to install. Quality construction and intelligent design means you got a functional part that enhances the weapon system in a meaningful way. In addition to the functional enhancement these grips add to your 1911, you get some extras on the side -they're made right here in the USA and they give your 1911 a serious look. Beyond that, this is the famously-chosen grip of the United States Marine Corps for their M45 pistols before they picked up a modern contract with Colt to make the M45A1. The original "Frankensteined" M45s are still in service in a decent quantity, so even to this day you'll see MARSOC guys running Pachmayrs on their M45s. Bottom line, this is an outstanding, reliable, and inexpensive way of adding quality front-strap grip on your bare 1911 frame. Things to Consider: As a reminder, you definitely want to coat your frame in oil or preferably grease before installing these grips on your gun. Many people just throw them on the gun, only to find out years later when they remove them that rust has built up under the grips. It rains, there's water, and you sweat on your carry gun -throw some grease under this grip and you're set. Be cautioned, this grip has a little weight to it and adds a little thickness onto the grip profile. This won't be a big deal if you're used to the standard grips, but if you're going from slim grips to this, you'll not only need new bushings and screws, but you'll have to get used to it. As with any rubber-textured grips, this will grip and hang on t-shirts if you're putting this on a carry gun. I will say that it's really not as bad with this as some others I've seen, but that's always a consideration for any carry gun having rubberized grips. Just throw it in the cart already, you won't regret it.

As a weekly range visitor, over the years I have installed Pachmayr grips on several pistols. I bought these for a standard size M1911 frame, 9mm Rock Island Armory pistol to replace the factory smooth wood grips. This is a one-piece, wrap-around rubber grip, providing positive hand control on the front and sides when firing. It took a little patience to install, but eventually it snapped into place perfectly. Resist the temptation to lever the grips into place with a tool, which might damage the rubber. I snapped one side in completely, then tried to stretch the other side into place. It took several tries and even switching the starting side from left to right, but after a few minutes, it just popped right in and allowed the original grip screws to be reinstalled. I suspect that handling the grip loosened up the rubber just by hand-heat transfer. Nonetheless, once installed, the grip fits perfectly, looks great and really helped with proper handling on the firing line. Note to M1911 shooters: I have fired both .45 and 9mm M1911's. The 9mm always seems to impart a little more twist in recoil than the .45 ACP. These rubber grips really make a difference over smooth wood.

Pachmayrs are hands down my favorite grips. I love the texture and the firmness, and they add just the right amount of weight to the grip frame. Any time I get a new 1911 it gets a set of these.

These grips are exactly the model I was looking for: GM-45C Signature grips. The stock photo, however, is misleading - these are for full sized frame 1911's, not compact models. They have flat sides with no thumbrest, and no rest at the bottom of the front strap. The material is much more rubbery and flexible than I expected, which is great for hugging the contour of the frame. The checkering is well-defined, but not sharp and not abrasive. They fit my 1911 perfectly, holes lining up properly. The purchase on these when drawing is excellent - you really feel like you have a good hold on them without having to shift your grip. The wrap on the front strap is nice, although the grip tape I was using is more effective. (On that note, I did not have to remove the tape to install these, so when/if I go to a different set, the tape will be there ready for action.) These do not seem to grab clothing even though they're rubber. I purchased these to replace a set of sharp checkered wood grips for carry. The wood grips would rub and grind at my side when I carried IWB with only a tshirt. These are much less aggressive and are much more comfortable against bare skin. I'd recommend them.

Good quality rubber grips for the full sized 1911.

Confirmed fit for Taurus 1911 45. Easy swap from the cheap factory plastic grips. A huge difference in grip and comfort.

Just like on the original pistols from Quantico. I first picked up a 1911 wearing these stocks in the 90's and loved the feel. The Springfield MC Operators came with these as well. Recently picked up a new find that came with VZ stocks, which I absolutely loathe. My new stocks came on time and only took a few minites of stretching to get fit over the grip screw posts of my new acquisition. Now have a few hundred 230grain freedom pills downrange with this in bare hands and gloves in winter conditions. No problems. They might be "old-school" but I prefer them over G10 scales, and am old enough to not care if I get called a Fudd.

While I really like the wood grips that came with my SA Loaded, I'm in love with these Pachmayr. They fit like a glove on the gun, and in my hand. The front stipling feels comfortable and an adds an excellent grip on the firearm. First day I took it to the range, I put at least 150 rnds through it, without any hand fatigue. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to add new grips, and a custom look/feel to an already excellent handgun.

ウエスタンアームズの1911のフレームに合うようにAmazonさんで買った鉛のシートを型取りして切り出して両面テープで裏に貼って使っています。多少は手間はかかるけれど鉛シートで大量生産できるし重量維持できます。グリップ自体は往年のそのままです。見た目と本物のグリップ感触を味わう楽しみのみの自己満足の世界です。

Fit well.. thank you.

For myself they are a great item that makes my 1911 more comfortable to use. Bought 2 more pairs for friends after they used mine

ホールド感、もちろん質も高いラバーグリップ。

東京マルイのガスブローバック M1911A1コルトガバメント用に購入。 カスタマイズ初心者の私でも問題なくポン付けできました。複雑な加工や強い力は不要です。 装着後の握り心地は素晴らしいです。 マルイ純正グリップより少し厚みが増し、ラバーということもあって手のひらへ非常に良くフィットします。 また、このグリップを装着することで銃全体が暗い色になり、美しく引き締まって見えます。 さすが実銃用のグリップです。良い買い物ができました。
