Good product

Took the grips off my Dan Wesson commander v-bob stainless and put them back on. Stripped the threads on one screw and bushing and another screw snapped in two. In a panic I found Brownells had the parts I needed. Got them in just a couple days. Put in a new bushing and screw and they fit perfectly. Quality of the screws is fantastic. Went into the bushing with ease. The threads were picture perfect. Same with the inserts. Excellent product.

Very good

Very helpful for my weapon thanks

exzact fit

Bought these as a replacement they went in easily had no issues hold grips securely

Garbage

They look good, that is where the positives end. The bushings are a touch smaller than every set I have ever purchased and had to be chased in, fighting against very soft metal to not completely strip them out. Anything but these, they don't live up to even marginal expectations.

Poor manufacturing

Male portion had to me machined or filed down to allow mags to go in. Poor manufacturing and/or engineering.
