Called back today to find out if it has shipped and they don’t have any in stock. And they don’t know when it’ll be back in stock. I just don’t understand how companies can represent that something is in stock and you have to call and ask what’s up to find out you’re not getting it anytime soon.

Three Foot Johnson Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 There are at least three versions of the clamp - I have both of these, and would give a slight nod to the Armorer's Edge version. The Victory Gun Works mentioned above looks like a good one too. One person here who doesn't like them is Noz - he said he stepped outside and threw it as far as he could. No explanation.

Sedalia Dave Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Buy a set of these for $2.00. The different hooks allow you to easily depress the spring so you to remove and reinstall the pin. Know at least 3 gunsmiths that use these on Rugers as well as other firearms. https://www.harborfreight.com/mini-pick-and-hook-set-63697.html?_br_psugg_q=mini+pick+and+hook+set Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fireball #7709 Life Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 The screw isn't necessary, Ronnie makes one that just slides and works real easy, I replaced my screw versions with a couple of his. https://rwgripframes-com.3dcartstores.com/TOOLS_c_26.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyesa Horg Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I've just used a small screwdriver like used on the Ruger supplied video, didn't see or have any issue. Although the clamp may be easier, I'm a cheap geezer! But may get one just cuz one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
