Default My PT1911
I'm no photographer, but I do love showing pics of things I do. Tonight I finally got around to fitting my Pachmayr grips to my Taurus PT1911 ( After Owning them for 2 months ). While in the process I thought It would look cool to polish the barrel up a bit with 1500 Grit, and then buff it with a dremmel. Its hard to tell from the pic but that barrel shines .

I love those grips! I'm almost tempted to put them on my 1991. Very nice.

They fit great. The only thing I had to do was dremmel some of the material off on the underside for the left hand safety. They are a big improvement compared to the factory grips, and they feel 100x better in the hand.
