You've got the right idea. A new grip and pin will makes a BIG difference in the appearance of a 3rd Gen. I've bought a couple of 3rd Gens that just didn't look like 99% pistols. After through cleaning and putting on a new grip, bingo -- 99%+! This is especially true on the silver-gray stainless steel models.

Haha VT, just bought it, won't be selling anytime soon! Also thanks for the info Dever, didn't know that they were interchangeable with the 45! That's great! The 4014 I bought, came with Houges that have seen better days, and I really don't like them in general, much prefer OEM. Thanks for the info all, will be ordering them now!
