One of the grip frames was a good candidate so I have started the process. What started as a simple fitment job has become quite a bit more involved. After I started blending and shaping I decided to flatten the flats and refinish everything to 600 grit. I'm also reshaping a new set of grips for it as well. Will take more time than I originally planned but should be worth the effort. This is the first time I've blended aluminum with stainless and it does present addition challenges.

You've made it look "easy" !
I'm impressed with how the dissimilar metal has been blended to look like one piece.

Thanks guys. As usual it took longer than I would have guessed and I'm still not done! Small precision files, a firm sanding block, and some patience proved useful.

Great job, the extra effort is always worth it. Those LHC are my all time favourite holsters, looks to me like you have a light, comfortable, easy carry combo there.

Excellent! Nothing like doing a job yourself & seeing the final product.
