VZ Grips makes a reputation on producing grips that actually feel better in your hand than factory panels, and these Government Slim Blast Black Canvas grips deliver exactly that. Constructed from premium Micarta with a traditional textured finish, they give you a comfortable, non-slip surface that works just as well for everyday carry as it does at the range.
What sets these apart is the distinctive alligator-back ridge pattern milled lengthwise down the grips. It's purely functional, not just cosmetic. Those ridges give you something to lock your hand against without feeling aggressive or irritating your skin if you're wearing them against your body. The Blast Black Canvas finish is the thickest of VZ's Micarta options and features woven canvas threads visible in the milled surface for extra texture where it counts.
These run about .175 inches thick compared to standard grips at roughly .25 inches. That reduction in thickness makes a real difference for folks with smaller hands or anyone prioritizing a slimmer profile for concealed carry. They're designed specifically for full-size Government and Commander models and come with proper fit and finish you'd expect from a US-made product.
Since these are slim grips, you might need to order short screws and bushings separately to ensure a proper fit on your 1911. The grips themselves are hand-finished and precision-made right in the USA, backed by quality standards VZ has maintained for over two decades.
Slim grips often require different screws and bushings than standard-thickness grips. Since these run about .175 inches thick compared to standard grips at .25 inches, you should check your current setup. Many users need to order short screws and bushings separately to ensure proper fit and function.
The alligator-back ridges run lengthwise down the grips and give you a secure grip without being overly aggressive. They're textured enough to prevent slipping but smooth enough that they won't irritate your skin if worn inside the waistband. The Blast Black Canvas finish adds extra grip texture from the woven canvas visible in the milled surface.
Slim grips reduce the overall width of your 1911, making it more comfortable for people with smaller hands and improving the carry profile for concealed carry situations. If you spend time carrying your pistol, that reduction in thickness can make a noticeable difference in comfort and concealability.
Yes, these grips are hand-finished and manufactured in the USA. VZ Grips produces them in-house in Tallahassee, Florida, using quality standards the company has maintained for over two decades.
