Same as VZ only $17 cheaper!!

http://lokgrips.com/gun-grips/1911

I checked out lok grips website. They do look exactly the same. Is the quality & fit the same as VZ? If so, I'm going to pick up a set to try out.

Thanks for the tip.

[Best Enhanced Trigger for my Glock?]

I'll check it out. Thanks.

Definitely the accu shadow. No contest. The g34 next. M&P last.

[Problem with 9mm 1911 mag]

Thanks for the advice. I'll pick up a couple dawson mags & try them in my range officer 9mm.

[Taming VZ grips]

I just wish vz's weren't so dang expensive!

The operator 2 grips are nice as well. I have them on my 1911.

[Taming VZ grips]

I love the Diamondbacks. They are super aggressive.

[Building a 9mm 1911 for USPSA]

I like the polymer grips and the g10. VZ grips are great especially with aggressive texture.

I love my 9mm SA Range Officer. I just ordered a Dawson FO front sight. I wish TTI made a FO sight for 1911's.

[Building a 9mm 1911 for USPSA]

Here is one approach:

Springfield Range Officer 9mm:

Dawson fiber optic front sight:

Cylinder&Slide tactical II trigger kit:

EGW 1911 Silverline blue bolt-on mag well / flat checkered mainspring housing:

Dawson 9mm magazines 10-round with aluminum base pads:

Regular walnut grips (will have to research source and update this later):

Remove OEM sear, disconnector, hammer.

Remove OEM mainspring housing and internals.

Install EGW mainspring housing and magwell.

Install trigger kit.

Use OEM rear sight, recoil spring, guide, and plug.

Install Dawson front sight.

Result is 42.6 ounces with an empty magazine. Very accurate.

Sounds like a great gun!

[Problem with 9mm 1911 mag]

What are the best most reliable 9mm single stack mags? Dawson?

[Range Officer?]

Do the RO's have a break in period? This is my first 1911 and I'm used to shooting plastic guns.

[Range Officer?]

I did have a couple hiccups my first time out using my reloads. Switched to factory new and not a single failure.

[Range Officer?]

I just purchased a RO 9mm. Shot it twice and really liking it.

[G34 Replacement Sights, Fixed or adjustable?]

I run a Dawson FO front sight on my CZ 75. It's pretty nice. I did have to file it down a little though.

[G34 Replacement Sights, Fixed or adjustable?]

Dawson precision makes good Glock sights as well. Fixed and adjustable.

[G34 Replacement Sights, Fixed or adjustable?]

Nothing beats a FO fromt sight for target shooting imo. I love the red dot.

[G34 Replacement Sights, Fixed or adjustable?]

Take a look at the TTI Glock sights. I really like them.

[G34 Replacement Sights, Fixed or adjustable?]

I prefer a fixed rear

[Center hold vs 6 O'clock hold]

My CZ 75 also shoots well with the center hold.

[Center hold vs 6 O'clock hold]

Needless to say I sold that sig. My glocks all shoot perfect with the center hold.

[Center hold vs 6 O'clock hold]

I do not like the 12 o'clock hold though. I had a sig that had that hold and I really hated having to cover the whole target in order to be accurate.

[Center hold vs 6 O'clock hold]

My dad is a rancher that grew up with old school six shooters. Mainly colts. He always taught me to use the 6 o'clock hold because that's what worked with those old western guns. It took me awhile to learn the center hold but now I like it much better.

[HK VP9 in production ?]

I still can't decide if I like my g34 gen 4 better than the vp9. I'm leaning towards the g34 but the vp9 gains a little every time is shoot it.

[HK VP9 in production ?]

I'm still getting used to the mag release. It's growing on me though.
