Kind of a long, involved story, but I'd like to find my brother a 1911 with a 666 serial number. The moon shot would be a Colt Wiley Clapp, but let me know what you have.

What do y’all think about trying to paint these grips? Thinking of getting some white rustoleum spray paint and taping of the finger grooves and start spraying. Is it possible to paint wood grips and still look good or is this a dumb idea?
