Title: New panels on the Limited 10
Post by: Intercooler on October 29 2014 04:50:45 PM MDT
   These were bought for the Hunter project which got deflated due to the magwell. I decided rather than sending them back, just put them on the Limited 10.

   I about have the Hunter transformation all figured out. I'm trying to figure out if the FFL will rape me to send the frame USPS or if I would be better off just sending it myself FedEx next day  ???

Very pretty. Do they feel as nice as they look?

If they don't put that they get sued.

Other than Ruger I've never seen that kind of message in the roll marks on firearms. Is it that common these days?

California tried pushing to have Lead Warnings as required per CA statute to be marked on all firearms sold in CA...so far manufacturers have gotten by with it on the packaging and instructions, but at least once a year some other "Special Interest" attorney files suit...

You wouldn't have a pic showing a forward view, from the rear would you? I'm trying to get an idea just how thin those grips are from side to side. Nice looking set you have there, to be sure.

How do you like your grips? From thinnest to biggest: Xtremes, Henning's, Walnut.

They fit my left hand perfectly. But being right handed I could use a grip that's slightly thinner at the top rear, in between my right thumb and forefinger.

I couldn't resist, now that these grips are available at a couple places, I ordered a red set first thing this morning and they've already been shipped.  8)

  I ordered a pack of Stainless screws for the magwell and installed it today with the Henning Stainless grip panel screws.

Throw up a picture when you get them on.

Will do. I suppose that I should get another 10mm for the silver set of Henning grips that I have, you can't let things like that go to waste.   ;D

You can only look at one side of a gun at a time ;-) or maybe it's "you can only look at one side of a car at a time"  :P

Perfection! Except for my forgetting to post a couple pics when the grips arrived yesterday morning.

These grips are narrower right where I needed them to be, the Henning's are a little too thick for the web of my right hand. Now I'm able to operate the thumb safety and mag release without shifting my firing grip to do so.

I also had to adjust the screen color on my computer, these grips are definitely red, my monitor made them look to be an orangish red.

This was my first order from Ben Stoegers Shop and it won't be my last. I placed my order on their site and less than 5 minutes later I received an email stating my order had been shipped.

Nice! You can always sell the Henning panels since they are in high demand. I plan on ordering some base pads from Ben, so that's good to know!
