This set of grips fits the same gun as the 100c Regulation
Police (.32 S&W Long, Round Butt). The gun is made with a
rounded butt frame, but was supplied with an extended
grip that was shaped like a square butt. This gives the
shooter a more positive hold, and was sometimes called
the "target grip". The same I-frame design was made in
many versions over the years, but most of them did not
have the stepped back strap. This is a mark of the later
Regulation Police Hand Ejector models.
Dimensions:
- Base Width = 1.6 inches
- Height, top rear corner to base = 2.9 inches
- Height, top front corner to base = 2.3 inches
- Width across top corners = 1 inch
- Height of round top above line joining corners = 0.3 inch
- Thickness at base = 0.6 inches
- Width of rear top step (to round top) = 0.15 inch
- Width of front top step (to round top) = 0.175 inch
- Width of insert at widest part = 1.7 inch
- Height of insert rear leg = 1.6 inch
- Height of insert front leg = .5 inch
- Thickness of insert = 0.35 inch
To asssemble and fit these grips, first fit the top of
the grip properly into the frame. Paint the tip of the
alignment pin with a Magic Marker, align the grip top
and carefully press the grip down against the gun. This marks
the exact spot to drill the alignment pin hole.
Carefully drill the hole slightly deeper than the alignment
pin projection. Snap the grip onto the gun and mark any areas
around the edge where the grip projects beyond the frame. Sand
these flush with the frame, using a fingernail sanding board.
When both grips are properly fitted to the frame (which can be
covered with a single layer of clear tape, to protect it
from accidental brush with the sanding board), remove any tape.
Fit the spacer to the lower rear of the grip frame and
bottom of the grips. Sand the spacer to exactly the thickness
of the frame.
Wipe a film of Vasoline on the grip frame, mix some 5-minute
epoxy, and glue the spacer to one (and only one) grip panel.
When the epoxy cures, remove the grip and spacer, and wipe
the Vasoline from the gun. Mount the grips (both panels) and
secure them with the screw. Then sand the projecting spacer
even with the bottom and lower front of the grips, so
the spacer and grips blend together.
To make the bottom more rigid, drill a small blind hole in both
the spacer and the unattched grip panel, so that a pin
can be inserted into the spacer. The pin should then project
far enough to engage the hole in the grip panel, eliminating
any tendancy for the lower part of the grip to shift relative
to the spacer.
