The MEU grips are replicas of real steel Pachmayr rubber grips.

Hey thanks for the reply :P
Hmm I've been told that 1911's generally have a slimmer grip, being single stack and all. Then I compare with with my double-stacked glock and the sizes are the same...
Anyway, I guess I can't complain about realism if real steel grips are thicker than the MEU ones. Still; I'll like to reduce my grip size on the MEU. I've removed the front strap and it does feel slimmer (I feel like I can handle the gun better) but I still want to reduce the 'width' of the grip.
I really like the looks of the gunner grips that you have (its the tan ones that you placed on your...kimber? right? there was a pic somewhere near the start of this thread). The proud MARSOC ones and Readyfighter ones I linked eariler and look good too in my option. Do you have any experience with those grips and can comment on their thickness? Or would you recommend another airsoft replica grip thats also pretty thin?
Thanks again for all your help!
