Tav.... Thanks!! I had also gotten a tactical thumb safety for it, but I think I like the smaller thumb safety for CCW.... my brain keeps saying a smaller piece of metal will mean fewer chances of accidentally bumping it out of safe..... I actually think I'm done for now. I may add a beavertail later on, but that's just aesthetic as the original one doesn't bite my hand at all.....

Dad.... wasn't too terribly bad. I got it from Shooter's Resource for $269.95. It's a great company, and they are VERY good people to deal with.

Four.... great looking gun!! Did you have to do anything to the laser once you installed them, or were they dead on from the factory?

Looks great. I was undecided on the burlwood grips but they really do look good on the blue.

My new set of CT grips should be here today as well. I just hope the factory grip screws work.

Nice photos and CT grips make a lot of sense on that little guy.

I had to fiddle with he adjustments a bit. As I recall, left to right was pretty much dead-on while up and down needed a fair amount of tweaking.

Where'd you get the magwell?

Do they negatively affect the gun's holster fit?

<><Peace

LOL Never mind. I just noticed your picture with the gun in the holster. That's what I get for posting in the morning with too little caffeine in my body.

BTW, what holster is that? It looks great.

DV.... I called CT just to make sure they would fit when I ordered, and they informed me that the only other thing I would need is the standard grip screws.... the original ones might work, but if you can get a few extra it might not be a bad idea.

Four, the magwell is a Wilson Speed Chute... and I didn't have to replace the bushings on mine. I just ordered some standard grip screws from Wilson's and they seem to go down on the grips nice and tight.

Dad, the holster is a Michael Del Fatti Holster. It's very nice and only gets more comfortable as I wear it and break it in everyday!!

Yes, nice photos. Is the ON/OFF switch inconvenient in that location?

I haven't had any problems with the on/off switch....... anyone else?

The switch hasn't been an issue for me either. I just leave it on all the time and let the frontstrap switch do all the real work.
