Snake Skin or Chain Link?

[NAMVET72]

IMHO get one done in each 1911, that should make you Happy........

I prefer chainlink.............

Thanks .

I'm leaning toward the Chain Link too.

I got a quote back from Dave today while I was at the Greensboro Gun Show. Can you believe there wasn't a single Dan Wesson in the hole place.

It's going to be a while before I received it. He's backlogged till late summer.

That will give you more time to figure out what other Mods. to your 1911. Did you ask Dave if he can get you a DW?????? Knowing you the way I do probably not..............

I did. He will supply the NIB DW RZ-45 Heritage.

Good price too. I would recommend all members to check him out.

I guess I'm a purist - I like regular old checkering on the front strap and the MSH. I like the grip I get from checkering - chain link/golf ball/snake skin don't have the same feel.

Just my opinion... you get what you pay for

Thanks Lane. I value your opinion.

I too like a simple 25 LPI checkering. But this one is going to be my first DW so I want something a little special.

chain link I think is really nice. My STI is dressed up with chain link and I think it looks very sharp......but that is what I like.....

, I know your the Chief, but how did you edit my post?

You are once again incorrect.

I'm only 20 minutes late but a dollar short.

Ok for real.... I'd go with the chainlink myself!

I should qualify my earlier response. I've only shot pistols with either smooth front straps or 25/30lpi checkering. I've never shot one with some of the other treatments. How does it affect the grip? Of all my 1911's, my Wiley Clapp Colt has checkered front strap and MSH - 30lpi. It's still easy to keep a good grip after 200 rounds at that range.
