An associate of mine has recently decided to delve into the world of custom grips.  And he has some beauties.

I should know, i have a set for the 1911 in my future.  A

Anyway, i hope this is the right place to drop this...

It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

Hmmm I have been eyeballing the RIA 1911's, get wonderful reviews and good shooters for the price, but their grips look awful and I have never found anything I deemed worthy. But those are some beautiful grips, definitely bookmarking this in case I break down and get one. (more of WHEN I break down and get one)

I've been eyeballing an ATI 1911, same situation, not if, but when, i get one.  John does some top notch work, all of the photos on the site are of grips he did for a handful of us as a test batch.

I'd read about him when Roy Huntington did a mention in American Handgunner.  Nice work.

Hmmm, You happen to have a link to that bullit?  I bet john would be tickled to see something like that.  Are you sure it was John Greek?
