Pearl Grips
« on: September 27, 2017, 12:49:18 PM »
Snagged these off of eBay for $40. Some idiot fixed them with JB Weld but I think I can remove it and reglue with clear epoxy. They will always have the crack but it won't look so prominent and on a 95 year old gun the aged look fits.

Damn now that's a nice case. Once those pearl handles are on you have to come up with a suitable nickname for it. I recommend "Super Fly".

I need to find a longer grip screw it didn't come with one and the regular Colt one fits but is a little short do it don't grab the second grip panel the pearl is a little thicker than the stock grip

But that pearl handle boot knife fits right in under the money clip.
