Got so Ram Horn grips for my USFA yesterday. Bill Fuchs made these for me whilst fixing the recoil shield. If anyone remembers the primers where backing out on me and couldn't figger out why, most thought it was the ammo. Turns out the recoil shield was just loose inside the back plate, or whatever that's called. He fixed that and turned the barrel so POA equals POI. Here are the pic's. Enjoy.

I thought I was wrong once, but I was mistaken.

A thought.  I'd bet those Grips/Frames would bolt right up to my Open Tops.  You gots an alarm system??  Big mean dog??  Hummmmmmmmmmm.  Really really good looking grips King.

Gorgeous! So you just put the laser on the burglar and let the cats do the work?

Correct, sir. Cats get exercise, I get amused, and burglar gets f****d.  ;D

Not loose, just not flush enough, still binding on backed out primers. Bill said he will try to put a shim behind the recoil shield. I'm confident he will get it right. On a side note, the gun was shooting way to the left, for me, as is most of my haandguns. he texted me a pic of a target I sent along and his shots are right where the bullseye is. So, I'm guessing my target stand must be wobbling.  ???

Not your stand, your trigger finger is pulling the gun left of center rather than straight back.  Especially, if you state, this is 'where all your firearms shoot to'.  Do an internet search on trigger pull and target hits and read all you can.

Hope this helps you out.

I was thinking the same as BRS.  They say "low left" is too much trigger finger, rather than just the pad.  I used to have that problem.  I feel for left handed shooters since the Colt design has the trigger offset to the left.  Try shooting the gun left handed and see where it hits for you.

Just thought I was trying to help you out.  But, yes, at first I thought blaming it on a weak/light stand was sort of odd but then..... you added the question mark emogi rather than the  ::)  :P  ;D .  So there  ;)   ;D
