1911s and R9s just seem to go together.

I like it but honestly I prefer the Robar.  My wife says leave it chrome for something different.  Now I have one for each front pocket.  Now I have my back pockets to fill.

Not too many people have a 70 Series Colt done by Larry Vickers and what appears to be Ivory grips.

I agree and I'll bet there's not many folks have a chromed and checkered R9 and a Robar R9.    ;)

No, but those are easier to obtain. I would pine for the 1911 because the R9s are available.

I agree with Tracker on this one.  The first thing I thought when I saw that family photo was " a VICKERS! OMG!".
