Beautiful guns there.
I see you pray at the alter of our dear lord and savior John Moses Browning too.
I my love MC Operator, but I have the original grips on it. I really need to buy some of those VZ grips, they look sharp on that gun.

Only part of the collection 
, people that hate them buy cheap ones, don't know how to clean and lube them and don't know how to reload.

The grips shown on my MC operator are the factory Springfield grips at the time; actually both sets of are. I've used STONER CNC grips on a Beretta 92 and a Ruger Mark IV 22/45 project. Good basic G-10 grips. The only mods on the 1911's are Wilson recoil buffers, dumped the 7 round factory mags for Chip McCormick 8 rounder w/bump pads and the grip screws are slotted for field disassembly without nothing more than a Swiss Army knife if needed.

I want a nice 1911. I’m not sure what to get. I want one I can carry but not sure if I will. I struggle between getting the sig365, the sti stucatto duo, dwx compact, and the 4” springfeild EMP in black and silver.
mid like one in 9mm. I know 9mm is communist to some for a 1911 but it’s my gun.

First of all damn you because now I want to spend some money! Secondly and might be a question for @dsdmmat is there a prevision to put a magwell on this gun. I would love to have a magwell and few 10 rounders with bump pads.

Magwells +/-. My blackened SS model has one, the MC operator does not. You need the bump pads to use a mag well. Once in a blue moon you get the skin on the palm of your hand pinched if you don't have bump pads. Guess I'm neutral on the mag well accessory.
Interesting I've never seen a 1911 retro fitted with one. Do you know who makes the one you have on your blackened SS?
