I started the 10-day wait on this gun yesterday. CA DOJ is apparently back on track for approvals. Took the grips off at the GS and they look genuine with both emblem stakings squarely struck. Some photos:

Brought the gun home yesterday and cleaned it up a bit. Had not noticed before that someone has polished the hammer.

Nice addition to your stable, the stags look really good on it.

Just liberated this type 3 flatgate from CA jail. It came wearing I'll fitting Franzite grips but is now dressed in factory stags. Here are a couple of photos:

Photos with stags too large for the post above. Trying again:
The files are too large to post now so I'll try to reduce the size and post later.
