Require Fitting.

Had I known they would require extensive fitting, I never would have bought them. We're talking a couple of hours. They will not mount to the gun as delivered. The gun will not function with the grips as delivered. Making them fit is difficult, and I may just throw them away. I modified some of the surfaces, and that makes them not returnable. The amount of work required, makes it more economical for me to just write them off, and toss them. I wasn't expecting this from Volquartsen. I certainly won't ever buy grips from them again.

A Bit Disappointed...

They feel great, no doubt, but I was disappointed to find that they really didn't fit my Mark III well. The center seams don't come together and I am left with a 1/16" gap under either my fingers or palm. You expect some amount of warping with a rubber/plastic piece and things my not align precisely, but not being able to fit around the frame is just unacceptable to me. Also, I would like to have had it stated up front that you will need to remove the hammer pin in order to install the (thankfully provided) larger slide lock lever.
