Yeah, ambi safety on the RIA is the only reason it doesn't sport a set of Crimson Trace grips. You can see the other two do.
Some people think I'm paranoid because I have so many guns. With all my guns, what do I have to be paranoid about?

I have a RIA 10mm too and had the safety swapped to a single and have Crimson grips on it  but you also have to remove the mag feed so they fit flush.

My three 10's
Top to bottom
Dan Wesson RZ=10 Razorback
RIA Tac II 10mm
Fusion Firearms long slide hunter
The springs are whatever the makers put in them. The Fusion came with a set of different poundage springs to fine tune it, but the one that was installed works fine.


Is that Fusion drilled & tapped ? I think the EEA hunter is I cant remember.

Drilled and tapped for what? There is no scope on it.

Oh, no....that would have been an option. I just use the laser grips. The fiber optic pipe is nice if ther laser's batteries die.

Here is a Fusion that was. (Not mine)

It is the EEA Witness Hunter that comes drilled & tapped. You can put a Holographic site on without that big ass bracket. Were not a loud to use laser to hunt with in Fl. That's why I was wondering about your Fusion. It looks like a pretty nice gun. Yours is the first one I ever saw. I didn't even know they were made.

And apparently WELL MADE! I like it, just got the RIA for a cheaper plinker 10mm to keep in practice for the Fusion and the Dan Wesson and save wear and tear on them.

So far the RIA is fine, too.

Just a couple.  I bought a 91-92 Delta Gold Cup.  The only change I made was new grips as Colt was  still grooving the front of the frame back then.



The second is a Commander size DW Classic.

From a couple pages back:
http://10mm-firearms.com/10mm-semi-auto-handguns/what-are-your-1911-setups/msg30386/#msg30386

Well, It's not a whole lot......
Custom fit Fully Adjustable Meprolight Tritium Night Sight Set
Wilson Combat; Grip Safety, Hammer (with matched Sear and Spring), Disconnector, Barrel Link, Ejector and Mag Release
Hart's, Shock Reducing Guide Rod, with a Shok-Buff and a single Wolff X-Power Recoil Spring
Gunsite, Low Mount / Hi-Hold Thumb Safety (I REALLY love this thing)
Colt Matte Stainless Slide Release (no biggy there)
Colt 1911-A1 Main Spring Housing
Custom fit Hogue WrapAround Grip
Stainless Grip Screws and Matte Stainless Pins (no biggy there either)
6 total Mags

Then, just for fun, I added a Colt 22 Conversion Unit and a Colt 9mm Conversion Slide (both are Series 80 Slides) with 5 Mags each
The 9mm Conversion has a hand fit Barstow, Stainless Barrel and Stainless Bushing and a Colt Matte Stainless Slide Stop
Here's an interesting note:
Both the 22 and the 9mm Unit uses the same Recoil Spring, but all three Calibers use their own Slide Stop

Just to name a few.... 8)

If Springer would ever make a 10mm, I'd do the same that I did to this Mil-Spec. C&S hammer, otherwise all internals and small parts are EGW. 2-1/2lb trigger (did it myelf and have 600 rounds on it already - it proves AND the thumb safety works). Oh, and an Aristocrat sight set.:
