Can someone tell me where I can find some slotted grip screws for my 1911? All I can find on Brownell's are Torx or Allen head screws. I have a set of Brownell's Torx screws on the gun now and I HATE them. They stick up too high in the Ergo grips I have on the gun. Not to mention I stripped one of them.

You can probably tell by the pic that they stick up way too high.

Order a set of bushings, too.   They're cheap and won't add much to your order, and it will be a handy thing to have on hand when you eventually strip a bushing.

I fear I may have already done so. I know one of the screws is stripped, but I managed to get it back in the bushing anyway. It certainly wouldn't hurt to have a spare set of bushings anyway.
