Overview

The VZ Operator II is the de-facto upgrade grip for full-size 1911s. The pattern combines diagonal grooves on the rear panel with a coarser golfball-style texture on the front to lock the grip in place under recoil, in wet conditions, and with gloves. The G10 composite is dimensionally stable across temperature swings and immune to the warping that plagues wood grips on duty pistols.

VZ produces the Operator II in over a dozen color combinations (black, predator green, hyena brown, tiger stripe, dirty olive, black/cherry, gray/black). Standard 1911 Government cut, not cut for ambidextrous safety from the factory; specify the ambi-cut variant if you run a Wilson or Ed Brown ambi safety. The standard full-size grip fits both Government and Commander frames since they share the same grip; Officer/CCO and Commander Bobtail variants exist as separate SKUs.
