Hey, my wife keeps buying shoes and bags, so....

Very nice.
Yes sir.
Very nice.

Now that is a pretty gun.

Handsome, I mean.

And now we are waiting on the range report...

I think I'll be able to handle it ok with the new style grips.

This has been my range/IDPA gun for over a year now, so it shoots much better than I do.

The same can be said about my Kimbers. They will punch a hole where ever your aiming, but you better be on target. I may be in the minority, but I prefer wood grips on my pistols. They look great, and they just feel right to me. Out of curiosity, what type of grips did your commander come with/were on it before? I don't know much about what Colt's factory fit and finish is like.

Thanks

Original stocks are double diamond, rosewood, checkered and with the gold Colt medallion.

I'll post a pic after while.

..That's how I justify buying a new gun too.

Beautiful Colt.

here's the original 1977 Colt stocks on it:

Someone suggested stainless hex grip screws, so I tried a set from Ed Brown.

Actually, a lifelong friend of mine is a master cabinet maker and is making a custom presentation case for my 1977 Gold Cup.
