Who are making them these days? Kings is gone, haven't seen any others I like, any suggestions?
Google is FULL of crap related to, but not giving info on, where to buy.

Aww that's awesome!!!

That's cool, but I'm not into skull's. The first is similar to what I had in mind, just not the older Wilson combat holes.
I've been out of the 1911 'world' for awhile, what happened to Kings?
I bought a .400 Cor-Bon kit from them years ago, but now they're gone?

Yep. fell by the way with the rest of the greats like Jim Clark Sr., Armand Swenson, Devel customs, etc.. Cylinder and Slide is a good manufacturer of current 1911 accessories, as is Wilson Combat and Ed Brown.

If you like cut to the chase competition triggers look at Harrisson Design. They have a sleek short trigger I really like.

That skull trigger is custom made by a jeweler friend of HelixFR here. He has a webpage and is now selling the skull trigger. I got one of his firsts cast on an old Colt trigger bow I had in my parts bin. He does excellent work. He had 3 trigger designs initially. The skulls, a naked lady and sort of a scroll design like engraving only 3D. I wish i had gotten one of his naked lady triggers when i had the chance.

You wouldn't happen to have a URL or e-mail for the jeweler who makes them would you? I don't normally go in for flashy stuff, but this kinda looks cool and I'd like to get some more info on it.

Yeah, I like skull as much as the next guy, but the naked lady trigger might have looked a little cooler! JMOHO

JLA that is an awsome trigger.

Brownells.

If you want to try several different trigger lengths/faces, consider
the Infinity interlocking trigger system. Page 111 in catalog 65,
upper right corner.

If you just want a short or long skeletonized, I like the STI Match
Grade Trigger. Also page 111, lower right.
