Fitting grips
How about some information on how to fit grips. All the in's and out's and what tools to use. I have not noticed that topic come up since I joined. But I am sure there will be some references at the bottom of the page.
I'll post a photo from an older thread of an uneven set. What say ye to these? Too far off or saveable?
And I want to see some pictures on this thread. Talk is cheap.

I've used the Dremel fitted with the flexible wand thing with an end-mill.

Those aren't an uneven set, they're two sides from two different sets showing a difference in shape: Tyler's Tru-Fit Grips

You can saw it off, but you can't saw it on.
.
In other words, be very slow, check the fit often. Nothing worse than taking too much off, speaking from experience.
Use the right screwdriver, and don't pry- tap the backed out screw, then tap from inside out.
Try not to alter serial numbered stocks until you've tried to find their real home frame.
That's about all I got.
