The new ones aren’t any wider than the old ones. Just profiled differently

They aren’t as new as they they were a month ago. Don’t mind the gouges!

That not a gouging it is the sign of using and enjoying them!

very nice. Did you fit them carefully, or did you buzz into the gripframe a smidge then re-polish? And did you use files or a disc sander? (or something else?)

I got it close on a belt sander. Than closer with a dremel. Than closer with a file. Than sandpaper on a file. Than just sandpaper and steel wool.
I am sure I would have to do a bit of fitting (not to much) to get the originals to fit right
Sounds awful. And it is quite a bit of work. But I Love when a guy gets done with them. Changes the whole gun.
Then they are appoxied on all the way around.
There is a great article on beartooth bullets that helped a lot.
Oh. And I finished them with tongue oil.
