Crimson Trace had announced a new series of custom-style laser grips for the 1911. High-end 1911 owners can now have a laser sight grip without having to use rubber grips. The Master Series grips will be made from a variety of materials including laminated wood, stabilized wood and Micarta.

The Master Series grips have a smaller laser diode that sits further forward allowing the use of a standard ambidextrous safety, something that the older style grips did not allow. They will be available for full-size, bobtail and officer sized 1911s and should be going on sale in May for about $360.
