Casual Mention

I mention to Marv that how the Pachmayr grips cover the front strap on his 1911 prevent easy insertion of magazines.

He mentions he doesn't really care for that cover anyways, but the Pachmayrs are all one piece.

I have several sets of 1911 stocks around here, so I go to take off his Pachmayr...

And the screw bushings unthread instead of the screws!  Then nothing I am willing to try out of fear of ruining the bushings will separate them.

GRUMBLE MUTTER....

I skittered down to Deer Hunter and got a replacement set of bushings.

Armed with the knowledge that no matter how bad I mess up a bushing, I have a spare...

Viola!  They come apart with modest effort and are still perfectly serviceable.

Win win!
