caspian guy Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Well that has all the sight radius for sure. How does it feel when it cycles with the extra mass/length in the slide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Russty Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Hows that Wilson front strap working for you? I'm about to get my first 1911, a SA Range Officer, and it lacks front strap checkering. Does it work and feel good and will it last a season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the front strap insert, but it needs to be secured very tight by the grips, and it wears away after a while.
