Just thought I'd share, I sent Jim Stroh of "Alpha Precision Inc." a nice 1960 manufactured Colt National Match that I picked up to build into a carry gun.

He did a fantastic job.

These are from VZ Grips, they're his new Executive Pro model grips (Black paper micarta) that I had a pair of 1911 minted dimes inset.
