You may find that modern grip-screws are a bit too snug in older (pre-'42) grips. There was a change in thread size by .003 during the war. Chasing the old grips @.122x44 with a current 5x44 tap will open it up just enough to accept the newer screws. Often, repeated removal of the old hardware had the same effect, making the parts interchangeable.
