Frogger,
Is your desire for considering a bob-tail job connected to concealment issues, or to another cause? The only reason I ask, is that I've found over time the toughest part of a 1911' to conceal, is the lower grip area. And for me, the trouble ALWAYS arose due to a flat (and checkered) main spring housing. As well as a checkered outboard grip panel. That's why anymore, all of them I carry have an arched, grooved main spring housing, and a smooth outboard grip panel. No 90 degree surfaces with velcro like checkering on them, make JMB's gun much more carry friendly!
Just a serving suggestion...
