:: GGP Post - P14 with Navidrex Rosewood Grips

Gratuitous Gun Porn counts as gun stuff, right? Hell yes it does. There hasn't really been any time to shoot during or since the holidays, so here is one of my beloved old Para Ordnance P14s that I fitted with a set of Navidrex rosewood grips that I've had laying around for years, in between web update jobs at home. I say fitted because the left panel needed some creative whittling to allow the thumb safety to snap down into the firing position, which would be a bad thing to find out at the wrong time, hence the fact that they have been laying in a drawer since I bought them a few years back. They both needed a bit over glue scraped where the tabs fit the back of the trigger bow slots in the frame as well. It's hard to find nice grips for P14s though, so it was a small price to pay and a bit of fun as well, and I'm pleased with the outcome overall.

I also included a picture of this pistol in one of my older concealed carry rigs, that being a very well worn and seemingly indestructible Bianchi Professional IWB holster and mag pouches. These exact mag pouches are long since discontinued, which is a damn shame, but I have some of the newer replacement Model 21 mag pouches also, and they do work well. The old ones were Model 10a, if I remember correctly. If you find some snap 'em up, or better yet, send a link to me.
