Now for a question...
I am either going to have to find a replacement trigger guard for a straight grip, or I'll have to have the original welded back to the screw portion (See page two of this thread). Welding will require cleaning and polishing. This will remove patina from the trigger guard (Same goes for the trigger plate also on page 2). If I go this route, is there any way to accurately "antique" the metal? That trigger guard will look really weird all shiny and new against the rest of this metal.
Also, I need a replacement for the non original hammer screw (Top of page three of this thread). First of all, which one's the original, and secondly who wants to "donate" one (or two) to the cause?
Thoughts?
