Holding my Springfield ...I think you're right. Holding my Springfield up in comparison with the S&W pics I found, I didn't notice any difference, but comparing pics of each, the S&W does look to have a much less-curved, more squared cut a the back of the guard. Thanks for pointing that out!MonteGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16455170033413754124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-65040772472920443112012-05-10T20:35:01.786-04:002012-05-10T20:35:01.786-04:00I think it's the trigger guard undercut on the...I think it's the trigger guard undercut on the grip. Kimber and Smith (per a quick Google image search) seem to come with that done stock, older Colt's and mil-specs are going to have the curve at the joining. <br /><br />That's going to affect the activation button placement if the piece is rigid. I assume someone will slap one on a 'smithed Colt (et al.) and find it works just fine.Matthewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05414687981098467556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-7769608663067697522012-05-09T17:35:57.312-04:002012-05-09T17:35:57.312-04:00@MonteG: I'm not sure.

It may have something to do with the shape of the trigger guard.John Richardsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03151468462458613615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146148016062694502.post-24894113302360357972012-05-09T16:00:22.357-04:002012-05-09T16:00:22.357-04:00It's interesting that this will apparently onl...It's interesting that this will apparently only work on S&W and Kimber models. Are the trigger guard/dust cover areas really so different on different 1911s that they needed to make completely separate models? I'm assuming the answer must be 'yes' given the fact that Crimson Trace is specifically limiting their potential market with this initial release, but I am curious as to what the specific differences are.MonteGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16455170033413754124noreply@blogger.com
