Makita, Snaps...oh how I hate them. some times you have to skive out a little dish if they are to short and sometimes you have to add a thin piece of leather. And i have found if the post is to llong, the post can be shortened using a dremel with a sand paper attachment.

The frame is the main part of the gun, the grip is part of the frame If you find a replica that is an N frame, the only difference will be the cylinder size and the barrel configuration

Interesting post. I like it, I have an opinion. Do they have centers for disadvantaged kids in your area? It would be neat if you would go to the center and just spend a day or 2 just hanging out. take a piece of leather and a bit of thread and needle with you. see who is interested Maybe you could change the kids life

The manufacture coated over the threads, so the screws do not fit I need to chase the threads with a tap. [clean the threads] But have no idea what the thread size is I have been told a guesstamate of 4 40 size. Does anyone know what the thread size is for the screws that hold a belt tip on the belt?

When I was in the Philippines the flies were very bad. I had a 1 gallon glass jar on the table with sugar water inside of it. The jar is deep enough so you can put the lid on it before they fly out. We also had re-up bull frogs who roamed around eating flies.
