    Hi all,
    I am looking for 1911 brown checkered grips (wooden?) as I am going to begin with a project at the moment that started out as WE Meu, but I want to take it and make it a custom....

    So as a result, ANY compatible parts for a WE 1911: Offer me something :)
    If I can use it I'll probably buy it.... In particular I need

    Wooden/Brown Checkered grips
    Slide components(?)
    Chrome/steel Extended safety
    Chrome/steel Extended slide catch
    LAST!: a 1911 slide, sanded/polished on the sides but NOT the top...



    Sure even if not listed offer something... even the whole gun haha mags I don' mind :)

    Cheers all

    You can get 1911 Checkered grips here, they'll need a small bit of modding to fit a WE 1911, widen out the back of the mounting holes for the lugs and carve a slot for the ambi safety & bobs yer uncle ;).

    These came from Texas but with some modding they fit a treat & look the business too

    Thanks for the reply Joker, unfortunately I was looking more into the plain as plain can be brown checkered grips... Like the kind that come with the KJW and KSC models of 1911. Can't seem to find them anywhere without them being for the real 1911 at 45 plus...


    !!!!! anyone at all who has brown grips: I can trade Rubber MEU grips for it!!!!!

    Yeah! definitely! They should fit. If you can meet at sometime whenever suits? The MEU ones fit all the stand 1911 frames... same applies to the KJW. To P.M.s?
