Recover Tactical CC3H Grip and Rail System for The 1911

I purchased this just to see if it worked. It works so well, I ordered the tan colorway and received the olive and , kept it all the same. Great product.

Awesome!

AMAZING

Rock island standard FS. It works but I believe the other model with the removable panels are more fitted for RIA pistols. Had to shave some parts down to get them to fit and there’s always going to be a small gap in the front but it didn’t really bother me or pinch my hands. I do wish I bought the other one if it truly does fit. This is just what I’ve heard from other RIA owners.

Looks good on the gun.

This item is actually great! I had my doubts based on some other attempts at adding the 1913 Picatinny, but this thing is solid! Worth every penny thus far!

Had to make a few altercations to get it to fit the rock island 1911, would work great for flashlight but for a laser not so much as the pic rail moves a bit so won't be accurate

OK i'm going to provide as MUCH detail as I possibly can as well as a crap ton of pictures so get ready for this review!OK for starters the grip in itself. It is light however does not "feel" flimsy, weak, cheap, or whatever nasty description you can throw at it. It's light weight and durable that's the only real way to describe it. Better yet imagine the stock plastic grips that come with a 1911 but imagine it in this form and shape but slightly more durable that is this.Installation is extremely easy and fast, comes with all allan wrenches and screws necessary and was able to do it very fast (like 10 minutes fast)the rail is nice it places closer to the trigger vs the aluminum rail that is much cheaper here ([...])Which makes activating one of my Green Laser + flashlight attachments MUCH easier since I don't have to use both hands to activate or stretch my finger ackwardly.As expected it is extremely sturdy easy to install attachments as with any rail.So overall the grips are nice, feels good in the hand, easy to put together, and overall good.However one thing that confused me but It's not really a bad thing nor why this is 4/5 instead of 5/5 but where the grip is there is a gap. As in the grip does not connect here and I didn't know if i had installed it wrong so I went back undid it and redid it but as you will see in the picture to no avail it will not connect. Maybe this was done for a more universal fit? But this did not cause any uncomfort, does not cut the hand or anything like that therefore I won't let it effect the over all rating.Now here is the not so fun part of the review and that's for the holster...I bought this EXPENSIVE set up for the sole purpose of having a grip and rail system that I could holster into at the very least secure level 2 holster...this is absolutely the only thing on the market that allows this UNLESS you spend addition hundreds of dollars to get a laser max grip laser..... (too much laser in one sentence? :)anyways the holster functions but here are the down sides or work arounds you should be prepared to face which all in all only 1 is bad1. Atleast out of the box it did not work with ANY attachments it was VERY VERY hard to holster and even more so to unholster so much so that ATTEMPTING to unholster would cause you to and I say this without any exaggeration you can pull the paddle completely off your pants (correct belt, tightness and all) without much effort * I will go into detail on this soon *Now as i'm writing this it has been a day and I have since propped the holster in such a way with one of my attachments (see pictures) to leviate the tension so that now with one of the flashlights atleast I can holster, and unholster it without activating the light (which has a bad habit of happening) and with time will make it work as should.. But I have considered and still am cutting the rubber pieces so that my attachment will straight up fit without hassle but i'm going to try this first as obviously this is a $60 holster and I won't be coming back from a cut like that2. When holstering the rubber pieces do not "give in" easily they do not move, or adjust out of the way for whatever attachment to "slide by" and lock into the holster. It literally stops it from moving altogether meaning you won't be able to holster your gun with an attachment. After forcing it past the same happens when attempting to unholster, you hit the other end of the rubber and CANNOT get your gun out without taking your other hand and PRYING the rubber pieces apart to pull your gun out.You don't need me to tell you how uncomfortable and unreliable that is to your safety.....3. There needs to be a list on what's just straight up compatible with this holster as far as attachemnts because out of the box my laser, laser+flash, and quick release flashlight do not function well with this holster.the issue is ALWAYS holstering and unholstering as well as accidental activation of attachments when forced in.....4. Now here is the BIGGEST flaw and BIGGEST issue witht his PADDLE holster....SOMEONE and ANYONE can simply walk up behind you GRIP the entire gun, or holster itself and just pull up and disarm you... Like seriously.... this is ridicalous... you can disarm yourself just trying to unholster the damn gun! The Paddle is the MOST unsecure paddle i've ever owned in my entire life and it is laughable.I cannot stress this enough this is horrible.... HOWEVER the only redeeming factor about this holster is that you can use it for what I hear ALL IMI attachments so personally i'll order the IMI Defense belt clip and test it (obviously it shouldn't go anywhere) and i'm sure that'll solve the biggest problem and maybe help others...That's the worst of it though.I'd like to speak on the holstering with attachments fix in greater detailCurrently prying the rubber trigger guard outward by using the very attachment (for several hours atleast 12) it has taken away a ton of tension off and now I can slight the quick release flashlight on and off without a problemI have yet to try my laser+flash yetI'm going to leave it like this for some more hours and then try it. However I do believe I can modify the inside of the rubber pieces by cutting only the inside off so that the trigger is still somewhat guarded and IF I do this i'll update as well as show results in pictures.
