Hogue OverMolded Rubber Grip for Colt 1911 Government Model with Finger Grooves

Grips fit perfect on my 1911 commander. They feel really good I have a lot better grip on the pistol. I recommend giving them a try

This was a perfect fit for my Springfield Armory Garrison. I did have to purchase standard length grip screws because the ones SA used are a tad bit short for this grip. I love the comfort and good, solid grip this product adds. I run these grips on all of my 1911's. The factory slim wood grips look fantastic but don't offer much in the way of a secure grip. You won't regret adding these grips to your 1911.

Fits perfectly on my Springfield Emissary full size government model 45 acp. Very secure grip.

True 1911 people love their checkered panels of all different materials. They look and feel original to the pistol. I always knew there was something even better, even a sacrifice to aesthetics. Trying this monogrip the first time made a believer out of me. Now all my 1911s sport Hogue monogrips. The fit in the hand is unbelievably comfortable and help with recoil. What is more important to me is much better control and really fast follow up shots. Absolutely no squirming in the hand or need to regrip after a few shots. The grip seems to be tough as nails as well. They take whatever I throw at them, tons of hoppys # 9 and all the grime associated with shooting. I truly believe they get even better with age and hard use. i would definitely recommend anyone trying these. The cost is more than reasonable and who knows, one might just get used to the look after experiencing the comfort and control.

I have a Kimber Stainless Target II and was first unsure if I would want a rubber grip on my gun. The Kimber has always shot great, but it felt a little funny in my hand. I have a big hand and I thought the original grip was too slender. Once I put on the Hogue Grip, I would never take it off!PROS-1. COMFORT. My Kimber now feels amazing great in my hand. The rubber grips is very smooth and the finger grooves allow my hand to fit on perfectly. I now have a great handle on my gun and the rubber absorbs some recoil.2. ASSEMBLE. The Hogue grips were very easy to put on. For my Kimber, all I had to do was remove my original grips by removing 2 bolts with an allen wrench, then replace with the new grip. I had the news one on within 5 minutes.3. STYLE. I think the new grip have made the appearance of my Kimber look better. I really like the look of the solid black grip on my stainless steel gun.CONS-None!I would recommend this product to anyone who feels as if their gun does not feel completely comfortable in their hands. Even if you think you gun feels good in your hand, the grips will make it feel better. Try one and you will never go without a Hogue Grip again!

Installation: buy longer grip screws (factory grip screws too short), heat grip (sun, hair dryer, heat gun, boiling water, etc,), install both top screws loosely, then attempt to install both bottom screws. The last bottom screw was tough and I used a squeeze clamp to assist manipulating grip into position. Recheck all screws for tightness. I did some minor sanding/trimming around safety (on one side) and around mag well.Review: Nice grip and fits well once it's installed. Definitely makes the 1911 grip feel much more ergonomic and looks fantastic. I did do some minor trimming (wasn't necessarily) to make the grip look perfect.Overall: Love the look and feel. Wish the install went smoother, but in the end, it was worth it, I'm happy with the item.

Nice product but it is tough to fit on a RIA Tac Standard. It took a fair bit of work wrangling the last screw hole into place over the frame but it can be done! Pretty comfortable as you would expect from a Hogue grip so no real complaints now except it was some work to get it installed.

High quality like any Hogue grip.On a Rock Island Armory 1911 GI Standard 45 ACP - or any others where the 4th screw is not easy to install, try this..1. Loosely install the top two screws and one of the bottom screws - loose enough to allow the grip material to stretch and move.2. Take a flat head screwdriver , feed it thought the grip hole and anchor it on the outside of the bushing in the grip. The screwdriver will be at a diagonal and the grip end will be a bit up the screwdriver shaft.3. Gently straighten the screwdriver while keeping it anchored on the other side of the bushing while sliding the grip down the shaft and onto the bushing. The rubber will stretch and the grip will slide onto the bushing.4. Install that 4th screwBasically, you're using the screwdriver as a lever to stretch the rubber grip as well as a guide to slide the grip into place.Good luck.
