Any other suggestions on grips (rubber or wood) is apreciated
I've been looking into grips, myself. If it's a Marui, it'll fit real steel grips, but probably not with the grip weights inside. The only options for grips that'll work with the weights are those Ready Fighter Operator and Alien ones. Dytac has a few supremely ugly ones out there, but they're rarely in stock. Otherwise you could look into standard 1911 grips. Again, you have to make sure they fit with the weights before you buy. If you'd really like a set of real steel grips, I bet some sanding or dremmel work on the inside (if they're thick enough) might work. I've yet to confirm this.
