I just ordered some spare clips for my new .45 acp handgun! Of course from the thread title I'm sure you all have figured out it's a revolver, so I won't be getting any "It's not a clip; it's a magazine!" lectures here...
I had absolutely no intention of buying another gun anytime in the foreseeable future, but then I stop at a local gun shop and see this Brazilian 1937 sitting under the glass with a price tag of $225, and I just couldn't help myself. Finish is worn and spotty, but not bad for 83 years. Bore is excellent; timing, cylinder gap, and end shake feel great. Now I need to get rid of these ugly Pachmayr grips, and find some replacements without spending an arm and a leg. Originals go high on eBay! I may just try my hand at making some. I've done things like that in the past that have turned out great, but it takes a lot of time to do it right.
Anyone have any idea where to find some inexpensive grips that are a bit more original-looking? Worn and not so pretty is fine.
