Let's see those BBQ pistolas.

I might be tempted by something with a Celtic cross on it...But still. Money, as always, is the deciding factor...

A constable came in at work yesterday to shop around. I was standing by the door when I saw something shiny on his hip from 20 yards out, a highly polished 1911 with ivory grips. The polish looked like nickel, but he said it was high polish stainless. He said it was a series 80, we talked about 1911's for a minute or two. That was one hell of a gun, didn't look like your every day LE side arm.

I guess it could be a bbq gun. S&W 640 engraved.

I don't have anything fancy or really nice but when I have an occasion to OC at a Que, I bring out my Ruger Vaquero in 357

Got one in 45 Colt. Prettiest gun I own

Go here. Stag Grips

Your 1911 NEEDS a pair of dress grips.

GLOCK peoples need not apply.

My dad's service revolver has a set of those, but he kept the pearl handles on it usually.

My Kimber Stainless II, engraved with "Operation Enduring Freedom 2010-2011", map of Afghanistan with the 1st Marine Division logo, EGA and my rank and name on the slide. EGA on the grips and even custom serial number, I'm working on getting an awesome custom leather holster for it, has performed flawlessly for me.

Very cool. My favorite so far!

Thanks it was a group buy on deployment, somebody came up with the idea and approached Kimber (apparently they do deployment commemorative pistols often) once we had enough commit and pay it got put into motion. Picked it up shortly after we got back, thing that sucks is I was stationed in CA at the time so I got to fondle it, fill out the 4473, then had to come back 10 days later to pick it up. Was about $1200 with the display case which is pretty much what a standard Kimber runs without all the engraving and stuff.

That reflects VERY well on Kimber as a company :thumbup:

I agree, I've heard their bad rap before but after having mine for a few years and dealing with their customer service while going through this process I'm a fan.

It's been a while since I've shown this chrome plated 1955 Highway Patrolman with gold plate and real MOP grips (that it doesn't have on now).
