Gun purchases thread.

[Rockwolf66]

DPMS M4gery with both a flattop and a gas block rail. There is going to be a backup front sight added as currently I only have the detachable carry handle and a rear backup sight for it(can we guess why a rifle that had maybe a mag through it was going for dirt cheap?). It has a front sight, a rail forend and a forend tool headed this way.

Prepare to have a new favorite pistol. I wouldn't give up mine for a million dollars

I need to put my stock hogues back on mine, those pachmayrs I bought don't even fit it

I just got a new Chip McCormick 10 round mag for my 1911

What pachmayrs did you use? I bought the Professional model that has the exposed backstrap for my 586. The fitment wasn't as good as the Hogues I added to my Model 64. But I like the feel of the Pachs better.

I have a pair of Pachmayr Decelerator rubber grips that don't fit my 19 very well, and I had the American Legend 1911 grips which weren't great either. All the harder plastic ones I've seen usually fit fine though.

I could pull the revolver straight out of the grips, if it weren't for the screw connecting the panels. It's like they were made for the Model 29

I'd buy a set of factory wood grips, but they seem to be either $70+, out of stock when I look for them, or have finger grooves

Check gunbroker for wood grips. They may or may not be new but you can find decent ones for decent prices there. I see Goncalo Alves grips on there all the time.

Looks like smith is no longer using hogues according to their website it shows new grips that cover backstrap and have much less pronounced finger grooves.
