I have a pair of raw casting brass SBH grip frames. I just started the filing, sanding, polishing, drilling, and fitting process with one of them.
Everything was going fine until I noticed that these casting are actually in the new model configuration with brass missing above and behind the trigger hole to allow for the New Model trigger spring. In other words there is no brass to drill a hole for the Old Model trigger plunger.
The easiest way to remedy the problem would be to fill in the missing brass with JB Weld. A better approach would be to silver solder or braise a chunk of brass in there.
Have any of you ever done this and are there any tricks or potential problems?
