Gsg 1911 thicker grips

Well I decided I need meatier stocks on my 1911, so I set about modifying a design I liked online, a few iterations later and I now have a more substantial grip, bringing my knuckles more central to the grip. Added 2mm to the width on each side. I also noticed the stock gsg ones I have taper, so are thinner at the bottom and roughly the same at the top, so I wonder if that's the reason mine feels thin? Not sure if this is the norm or mine are a one off defect

Added the UK detail because why not? As far as I know we are the only ones dealing with coat hangers so no one else would want this version anyway.

Nice design, well executed. Would have been nice in a white/cream colour for an ivory effect.

I have the target grips on mine, they’re great and fill my bear paws much better than the standard, only downside is it makes it a little harder to hit the mag release without adjusting your grip

I find the same problem. Although I don't do competition shooting with it so I am not usually in a position where I need to drop a mag quickly so it doesn't bother me much.
