But here is how it looks now

Brownells has Black Micarta double diamonds in the price range you specified, If you are gonna run the 10 rounders tou might want to throw a S&A Magwell on it also. For cc the 7-8 rounders make it easier to hide carry the 10 rounders as spares in case the SHTF.

I really dig VZ Grips, John has done a bunch for me to include some for my Bobtailed Colt. Under your $80 price limit too!

With a smaller mag its perfect for CC

Grips sometimes ebay has decent deals, and a nice selection.

i have several recommendations for grips

1. Mil-tac G10 (my Kimber below wears them sometimes, darker than in the pic), get the diamond, not the slash cut, mine are slash and are a bit rough on the hands, they would flat out open you up if you used them for CC. their website for 1911 grips: Pistol Grips - G10 - 1911 Grips

2. The next set I will have... VZ Aliens. their website:Custom 1911 Grips | Micarta grips

3. also very cool, Davidson grips: monkeygrips

Shredders

Warthogs
