I bought one of the new Single Ten Lipsey specials in blue. When the gun arrived, the nice thin grips move around on the frame. Upon inspection, it appears that the hole for the frame pin was drilled oversize and is bigger than any other factory grip pin hole. I attempted to put the factory grips from an older single six on it, and it appears the new frames have a slightly different pin location. Instead of re-doing the grips to fit the new location of the pin, they just enlarged the hole to allow the pin to go into it, but it is an oversize, sloppy fit.
Here is the question:
Is there some product that I could fill the oversize holes with that would allow me to put the grips on and then when it hardens be able to remove them again that would tighten this up?
OR is there another way of doing this? I often get ideas from you guys that did not occur to me and I learn a new way of doing it.
All help is appreciated.
I have compared holes in the grips then and now, and they are different so please save me the "you are seeing things" or "are you sure" they are not the same size. The pins are comparable. I was able to get a set of Hogue grips to work by slightly enlarging the hole in one direction while keeping a firm fit on the pin. They just drilled the hole bigger and I would like to use the original thin grips rather than just throw them away.
