Archived Locked [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Frontstrap treatments
Posted: 4/17/2006 11:06:16 AM EDT
What's your opinion of how the frontstrap on a 1911 should be treated?  Do you like checkering?  If so how many LPI?  Plain?  One of the new alternate treatments?

Oh, and why do you like what you like?

My Operator TRP has huge, pointy checkers.  Id guess 10 LPI and pointy.  I didnt like it when I got it but now I love it.  It does not move and gives excellent front end control.  If I were to get another 1911 I'd have it checkered the same.
