Citadel Officer
 

I just had to play around with goofy colors. I probably wouldn't do it again, just go with black, blued, or parkerized, or nickel or gray or something. Seemed like a good idea at the time though.

Before Duracoating it, I dehorned the heck out of it after seeing one on the 1911 forum that just plain gave me a woodie.

The pin-up grips came from Ebay, the sites from Fusion. The black rubber grips are stock, but I bought a pair of Hap Arnold star buttons, cut off the back, and inlaid it in the grip.

Nice pistol.... A nice set of cocabola (spelling?) wood grips would look great with that green.

I know this Texas kid who makes grips.....

OMG can he do some magic with grips!

Nice shooter, I had a Citadel full size, liked it but ended up trading it in when I got my full rail RIA. Wish I would have kept it for a truck gun now. I like the black grip look, but not a fan of the shiny medallion in them. I like the colors you did....looks pretty good IMO, not the standard. Everyone needs a colored gun.


Ask Ellison to show you his pink Glock!

Nice, John! Zane(lonestar grips) makes some beautiful grips.

Yup, wood grips really are the best. I forgot to mention the trigger is from Fusion too. Smooth faced, slightly rounded.

Nice!

Oh hell naw, no you didn't. Just for that, I'm sending a case of Nutella to your house.

+1 for Zane making grips. He made a few pairs for my Les Baer. I won't buy grips from anyone else.

funny my wife would like that.....stuffs spendy for the terrible stuff it is!!

FYI, that stuff (Nuttella) works great on toe nail fungus. ;)
