Some of you are gonna hate it, but I think I'm liking this...

This thread reminds me of the Lawyer reading the will at the end of 'Grand Torino' :

...my friend... Thao Vang Lor. On the condition that you don't chop-top the roof like one of those beaners, don't paint any idiotic flames on it like some white trash hillbilly, and don't put a big, gay spoiler on the rear end like you see on all the other zipperheads' cars. It just looks like hell. If you can refrain from doing any of that... it's yours.

Then apparently that particular objection to the grips are a red herring. 

Not a red herring at all. The grip panel can support the plunger tube, and usually does, and there's no reason why it couldn't/shouldn't on this gizmo.

And like Hawkmoon said, it may indicate that you're using a part from a maker that doesn't understand the gun as well as he ought to.

Like a Glock is a thing of beauty.....

It's supposed to be ugly.

1911's are not.

Look, I just don't see the point of the ugly.

But I also don't see why you need rails so bad on a 1911 when you could get a 1911 with rails or jusy get an ugly chunk of plastic in the first place.

Plus, the damn thing looks so fat. If you're gonna have a double stack size grip, then have a double stack pistol.

Or you could learn to shoot with a flashlight, like I already said, OR you could get a nerd light (like my Dad said when I told him about this)

IMHO, it's a waste of money for uglyfing a perfectly good gun.

No kittening kittens in here, Tam.
