Thanks for this. I saw this thread yesterday. A different thread said the website was being updated in the afternoon, so I kept checking then. On a whim I looked this morning, and sure enough, there was 124 gr JHP available so a grabbed a case!
I received a couple of those Kipp levers. What have you guys used for the external screw? The thread is 8/32, but all my machine screws have a head that’s too big. I’ll check Ace Hardware to see what else they have.
Edit: Ace had a 1” set screw that looks like it will work. I assembled it, but everything seems kind of loose. Would you guys be so kind as to describe/show your setup?
Hey, that’s pretty slick. I ordered a similar one from Amazon to try. The one thing I found is that the nut on the non-clamp side of the holster tends to loosen up, so I would probably look into something to hold that into place.
That being said, I think I’m going to order a couple of those Kipp levers and see what I can do there.
Greg Cote is the place to get mags. I like the rubber base pad too, but am not sure if they fit a 10 rounder.
For ammo, I like Montana Gold 124 HP, and I've been having good luck with CCI primers.
Oh, and get a Boss hanger. You can thank me later.
There was a CSI episode similar to this many years ago. I love hearing creative ways to get back at those a$$holes. Let's face it, if they weren't doing illegal things in the first place, the vandals would not be in the position they are now in. Nice job on giving them their comeuppance!!!!
I'm assuming by "no stainless" you mean you don't want silver colored ones. I got these about a year ago and they are very nice:

I just received mine today and put them on. I really like the profile of aluminum grips, as they allowed me to be able to get a lot of "skin on the grip". Unfortunately, they always had a tendency to loosen slightly and move around, no matter how tight I got the screws. The G10 material seems to stay put better and should give me exactly what I am looking for. I can't wait to give them a test run.
Ok, I'm sure this a dumb question. But with the stronger spring, it takes more effort to click the safety on. Does that also mean it's easier to click off on the draw?
