The grips are aluminum John. Got 'em used, with a couple of other used sets of different kinds. I believe these are Alumagrips but they're not like the others that I have which are dark gray, and...

Hey Colonel, if you're not going to use that jig I'll buy it off you!
Here's an even better video, showing a successful attempt from beginning to end.

This video shows how to use that jig. Skip to about 1:45 to see exactly how to start the process. By the time you get to 4:46 you'll see the steps needed to complete the setup. He messed up, as you...
Very nice!
Thanks for the info Colonel. Can you point me to that jig that includes hole placement? Also, when you say machinists drill press, is there a reason that you know of why my benchtop 12" drill press...
The more we talk Bird the more I begin to think we might be related :D
Hey Colonel, when you bobbed one of your Commanders awhile back, how did you figure out where to drill the holes for the MSH?...
I too like the looks of it now. Good honest wear always looks nice imo.
I do. Hate to carry IWB if I can't have a tshirt on underneath the holster. So I usually pocket carry in the warmer months when an outer shirt is not comfortable.
When you're surrounded by enemies your time is best spent preparing to protect yourself.
Ask the voice if the light's still on
We have become....surveilled
No, I don't want to change these. I was thinking you had red stones, forgot that you had blue. Regardless I like these just fine. But thanks for the offer!
I barely touched the bottoms to the disc...
You done good! Expect something from me in the mail this coming week Colonel.
Thanks Bird. Something about a red grip on a black frame that brings out the best in both. The jewels are OK but the...
oooooh very nice
The Colonel sent these up to me today. Like 'em as much as I do?
Thanks for leaving them a little long Colonel. I took just a smidge off the bottom of each, and relieved the left a tiny bit to...
I recognize those pins!
My wife just spent a few days up at her Mom's in Monroe. She stocked me up with food before she left. While I can cook I too would rather spend my time in front of the bench than the stove. She's...
If you're going to do the slide Bird, think about just stripping it first and seeing how it looks. I just have a feeling that it will be very appealing with that patina look, and no swirls, because...
Have you ever noticed that sometimes the biggest guys are the most gentle? Like because they don't have to fear others, they seem to be champions for the weak amongst us. I don't know what's actually...
Saw this on another site. I think a K9 or P9 would fit there nicely!
Ah, I hadn't noticed that they were beveled. Probably wouldn't look "right" above a magwell. Drat.
Good points guys. I use a micro pick to depress mine but still have to make sure it's against the spring's cap in order to clear the slide's ledge there.
So, in your climate that would mean you'll need to keep it well oiled? I do like the look, regardless. With or without the cool Maori pattern you made on it. If you get bored with it, you could...
If you decide those fat grips aren't for you Colonel, well, I know a guy who likes them :D
