Badass work. I really like the hammer. Ive seen it on Hi Powers a lot, but never on a 1911.

I like all your stuff.. but that is super slick.
 
Bobbed. It's meant for "I wanna die today" carry.
Love the grips - great work!

I've carried a 1911 in condition 1 for a long time now so any other mode doesn't feel right. However I've met a lot of vets who carry in condition 3 still, as that's what they were taught in the service.

Awesome work as always Greg.
