I bought this Colt about 15 years ago, mainly because I fell in love with the Ivory Grips done by Nutmeg Sports.  They just had soo much character to them.  So I've been thinking for the entire time, I wish it were engraved.  I e-mailed Michael Grous about engraving it, and he said he would.  I gave him some ideas about say 35% or so coverage.  A little more than A, maybe B engraving.  I sent it to him.  I got it BACK, and WOW, oh WOW...  It's amazing the difference ... I couldn't be happier...  a few Photos:
