    Years ago S&W had a replacement back strap that could be ordered from them. Easy to install and the grip feels like that of the 1911A1. I don't know if they are still available or not but maybe an email to S&W might get you the answer. It was never widely known and I would not have know about it if a factory rep hadn't informed me about it and sent me one to try. This was just after they came out with the 659 model and that was quite awhile ago.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping. Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    I have an accurate S&W auto

    a Model 41. And as mentioned the 52 is about as good as the 41. I doubt that a better .22 target pistol exists in the price range to this day.

    You'll note that I "said " CENTERFIRE.
