I want to keep it stock.   It's been on my hip that way for a long time and 20k+ rounds.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

Hopefully your call to Colt on Monday yields success, but with their website sending you to MidwayUSA or Brownells I think you will end up on the phone with those two asking for help to get a Colt original or clone.
If I appear taller than other men it is because I am standing on the shoulders of others.

And the word is...?
Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom.
It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves.
-William Pitt, British Prime-Minister (1759-1806)

I'll still wondering how you fall hard enough to mangle the rear site like that and walk away from it intact.

Glad to hear it worked out for you.

Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage. Where are we now??????

I heard that a lot of judo is about learning how to fall. After all that time, you should be good at it. I on the other hand would be hurtin' for certain.
