Got 2 more guns in the shop last week. A Colt officers, and a SA SS TRP. Am gutting out the junk parts in the TRP and putting in the good stuff...........in english, that means steel Old Fuff.
Anyway, I made an order to Brownell's for the parts and got the order today. I ordered a Brown SS Hardcore Slide Stop to replace the cast/mim slide stop on the TRP. But when I opened the pkg., the Brown slide stop was cast as well..........and it had serrations instead of checkering.
Now I've used Brown Hardcore SS Slide Stops in the past, and they were all solid SS with checkered faces..........what happened? Has Brown lost his mind? When did they make the change?
Brownell's catalog and their web site still show the good style slide stop.
I must have been getting the last of the old stock in the past.........
Very disappointed.........
