I am sure it has been discussed on here, but I can not find anything, so here we go. I know many are removing the great locks, but I also thinks somewhere, I saw that there was a plug or something being used to fill the hole. Can someone help with my big hole problem.

Here is what you are looking for. It's on the second page of the gunsmithing forum. Here's the link-

I want to apoligize to Raycat & Smithnut for my comment earlier. It was out of line & even though Smithnut edited it, I just deleted it. I guess I watch too much of The Office. It won't happen again.

I use a plug made from a pliable magnetic strip of hard rubber that has a clear tape backing. I really don't know what it's called, got a roll of it at the hardware store. It's dark grey, looks like a stud post when it's fitted. Depth is just right, it fits flush with the gun's surface. I use a leather punch and press fit. The one on my 21 hasn't moved since I bought it a few years ago. I figure since I couldn't match the gun's color exactly, I'd use something that looks distinctly different, but that looks like it belongs.
