I now can build the 1911 Officers Model grips. The Officers Model has a shorter hole pattern than the full size 1911. Here is a set of Dymondwood-Hazelwood that I just finished in the Officers length. They are pretty cool. Actually I think they would also look good quarter sawed, I may try that sometime. This is a beautiful laminate made up of Walnut, Cocobolo, Chestnut, and Natural. This is a shooters grip, it is very hard and durable and looks good to boot.
Enjoy!
