Source for 1914 Grips?

Is there a source for 1914 grips out there at all? Father owns a 1926 1914 but it has what look like colt grips added at some point. Thanks

Just for clarity: You are referring to original grips for a 1914 Norwegian, right? Not grips for an American M1911 manufactured in 1914?

Nor. 1914 Grips

I would have thought someone out there could might have a set thought the price probably out weighs the purpose for them. The gun has beenblued though you would never know know it. Several good shops have looked it over and were amazed at the finish it has. Thanks

Occasionally there's a display of Norwegian pistols at the Missouri Valley Arms Collectors Assn Show in KC. He's had grips and other parts in the past, I'll try to remember to get a card next time I see him.

Watch Ebay as well... there have been a few pair of correct, original, M/1914 grips sell lately.

There are very many grips for sale on GUNBROKER.COM. Look under "COLTS". Might get lucky.

That's probably Terry Johannson (sp?) you are referring to.

I don't know the gentleman's name but usually sets up about in the middle of the room. Just one table as I remember, has some nice Norwegians and seems to know his stuff.
