I just shot it tonight but the timing seems off so it will be going to the doctor. ... oh well its a cool gun and I got it for less than a pre panic used glock price

Nope :(

Didn't think so, but at least it still has the lanyard loop. I see the original wood grips for sale all the time.

Very nice. I got a Colt m1917 at Guns n Ammo in Parker several years ago. Not real pretty but cheap. Timing was off on that one, when fired double-action it would invariably throw over. Worked fine single-action. I took it to Gunsmoke (before they were tv stars) and the old guy there fixed it up for under a hundred bucks. One of my favorites now.
