KinnyLee, you grip the 1911 the exact same way I do. Left thumb over right thumb. I've always used that grip and it works real well even though every once in a while I get told by an expert bystander that it's wrong. :roll:

It was the way I was taught to gain more control of the gun. Works for me. I've tried the other way via isoceles, but it was never as accurate.

Yay for Longtooth! I like how it is all rounded out and stuff. Takes "No snag" to a whole new level. :cool:

And thanks for the honor HT. I'm sure some of the guys here have a much better collection than I do. lol.

Talented ingraver. :lol: John, the Springer is coming. It will be posted when I get home. We are on vacation right now. I am hoping to make those pics a solo display. If I can't I will have to call DP again for refresher coarse. :oops:
