jwilkinson6 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Wondering how everyone is treating the notches left on the grip when the magwell is removed? I won’t bring using the magwell ever so should I just dremel out the magwell or just leave them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Posvar Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 I left mine alone and ended up having Alma Cole do a custom one off build up and silocon/grit job and this rendered the magwell usage impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich406 Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 This is what I do to my grip module magwell. After dremeling, there is a slight divot left, I fill it with epoxy and sand it flat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwilkinson6 Posted January 20, 2020 Author Share Posted January 20, 2020 So removing the notches seems to be the norm. Any advice on the process would be appreciated. I’d prefer to not have to replace it after I screw it up. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBomber Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I left mine alone for the most part. I did lightly file a couple spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zhunter Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I am going to shoot with Grip Tape for a while to decide if I need to modifying the shape before doing the silicon carbide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcc7x7 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Job weld is what most people use. I use course grip out of a harbor freight kit. I've done 5or6 out of it. Use an. 125 ball type bit and dremelan outline, sand it de grease it several times Good to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcc7x7 Posted February 5, 2020 Share Posted February 5, 2020 Its It's actually hard to screw it up. Short of dremeling thru the grip. Even that jb weld would fix that. Go for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
