Not a single hippie joke?
Really? I think you missed a few comments...
I want to know why a hippie had a 1911.

^^^this^^^ replace the wood.I would take the grips off and soak the metal parts in Hopps 9. **** can the grips since that is what soaked up the stinky oil. Replace them with new wood or a nice hogue wrap around.
There are usually tons of options for grips at local gun shows or mail order. I prefer the hogue. I like the soft grippy rubber and finger groves. Hand goes to the same place every time. Since you got a good deal wouldnt hurt to spend a few bucks on it.
Ummm, he grew up? Or maybe his grandpa left it to him and he soaked it in patchouli to get rid of all the dead commie stench.Really? I think you missed a few comments...

Both ......The grips are hogue rubber, but I may replace them with wraparounds and do some cleaning with #9 in my dads garage so that I won't get yelled at for opening the bottle in the house, no matter how aromatic it is to me.For you or the gun?
