Received a package in today's mail. The contents were unexpected, over the top, and unannounced.

@fatbaldguy sent me a little gift. To him goes my eternal gratitude, thanks, and humble delight.

I am now the proud owner of a set of magwell cut rams horn grips! I was first tempted to inset some of those 1911 dated gold Quarter Eagle medallions, or maybe a set of Colt gold medallions. But I'm thinking maybe just enjoying them as they are.

Here are some photos that really don't do them justice. They are insanely cool.

Eternal thanks @fatbaldguy . . .

Now, which gun to put them on?

Beautiful. A set to be proud of for sure.

I would opine it would be a crime to put those on anything other than a carbon steel and blued pistol.

 

[Sneaky One]

Wow.....

 

[ZoidMeister]

Gotta do a little Barbie dress up photo shoot tomorrow.

Leading candidates are my 1917 and 1918 Colts. Only one year apart in birth, but they couldn't be further apart in condition.

1917 Colt Commercial

1918 Colt M1911 - Deadpool

@ZoidMeister just put one panel on each pistol, you’ll start a new trend on the forum plus so there will be no sibling rivalry.

Killer grips. Congratulations sir. @fatbaldguy, very cool of you sir. Thanks for helping to make this my favorite little corner of the interwebs.

I visit here often but don't really post a lot. Thing's like this are why I keep coming back and the free education.
Beautiful grips and well done @fatbaldguy !

Well, Zoid you are most welcome, and deserving. It is a small gesture to show some appreciation for your contributions to society as a whole, and this 'group' specifically.
There is so much more to say, but I am not articulate enough to express it.

As far as my "contributions to society as a whole", I think many would be willing to engage in a spirited debate as to exactly what those might be . . . .

Personally, I think I make more "withdrawls" than "contributions", but that is for yet another discussion over a round of adult beverages . . . . . but I really do appreciate being appreciated by you'ze guys . . . . .

The grips are a fantastic way to improve the look of the crab-pot anchor.
