With EG grip panels it's too thin for some people's taste.

They are about the cheapest 10mm pistols out there.

But I am kind of hooked on 1911 pattern guns. My short fat fingers find double stacks just a bit too wide to get a good grip on. Which is why I do not own a Desert Eagle, or a Jerico, or a Grizzly LAR.
Come over to the dark side! Extra rounds await you!  :D

I was very concerned about the grip on the Witness and vacillated back and forth for quite some time.  I have 2 1911's (10mm & 45), and a CZ SP01, all with thin custom grips.  These grips feel perfect for me, so I was afraid the double stack Witness Hunter would be a bit much.  I handled the Glock and Rock Island double stacks and found them to be too bulky for my taste, but kept hearing that the Tanfos are much thinner.  Finally after hearing so many other reports on how much better the Witness grip is, I caved in and bought it sight unseen.  Man I was pleasantly surprised.  The grip is indeed great.  The pistol in the pic has the thin Henny(?) aluminum grips, which are just a smidgen thinner than the stock wood grips.  Both grips are excellent, and while I'd give an ever slight edge to the custom grips on my CZ, these grips are outstanding.  Plus the fact that it holds 14 rounds makes me like it even more.  I'm glad you guys talked me into it.

Im excited to get my hands on one of the polymer matches, but I havent been able to find an eta for them. +1 for the witness they are great for shooting more then just 10mm with all of the slide conversions abailable.

I love my Limited 9mm! It shoots like a well oiled .22!

I keep telling you all, do I need extra rounds when I can shoot my 1911 type 10mm pistols like this? ;)

Some people think I'm paranoid because I have so many guns. With all my guns, what do I have to be paranoid about?
