Tuner, be careful not to go into a roid-rage and bash in your monitor or something (i'm sure they aren't those kinds of steriods... or are they... ). Hope whatever problem you need them for clears up soon..
*******************
Yep..Those are the ones. Can't focus on nothin' and even my skin is gettin' on my nerves. Some progress, but not as much as I hoped. This is my second and last trip down Steroid Boulevard though.
******************
And:
As said before, I think that since Wilson puts his name on it he should be held accountable for quality and it is expected that he/they give it a warrantey. (I hope that statment isn't too "John Wayne." People still do care about their word and their name, right?)
Not at all! Part of the problem today is that nobody wants to accept responsibility. Wilson, or anybody else passes along a bad run of parts, they should make it right, drop the vendor and find one that'll deliver...and John Wayne is/was one of my role models...on and off the screen.
Thanks for not floggin' me too bad, matt...Yer a class act, lad.

The head snapped off just as he was about to torq the screw into place.Hmm. Looks like I dodged a possible self-induced problem when I R/R'd the screw bushing. I haven't have any further problems though I've R/R'd the grips several times since then. But then again, since I know what it takes now to break off a hex head, I don't torque only tight enough to stay under recoil.
So the jist of my post here is to ignore my previous advice about replacing the entire "assembly". I'm sure not gonna argue with 'Tuner about what's good for a 1911.

"We're cool as long as you don't get loaded up on them 'roids and come beat me into the ground."

No worries, lad...Right now I couldn't whip a 9 year-old double amputee.
