Maybe not quite the same as shoes matching the purse... http://y42.photos.yahoo.com/bc/brookstexas/lst?.dir=/gunstuff&.view=t

I'm a bit of a fashion mogul myself, but I can't see your pictures....I'm being asked for a password for that link!

I checked it, no password needed open to all.
Give it another try, sorry!

Outstanding matchup.
I got one of those frontstrap wraps also on my full size. Man, that thing makes it possible to snap a gun out of your belt even if you had motor oil on your hands, doesn't it. I love mine, super gripping power. Looks sharp also, and beats shipping it back to Kimber to have the real deal done to the frontstrap. Good show Wilson Combat.

cheers,

SS

Where did you guys get that frontstrap?

Thanks,
Noah.

It's a Wilson front strap that slips under the grips to hold it in place. It can be found at http://www.wilsoncombat.com

Under $10 dollars too! If you take your time and use an exacto knife to make small cuts on the very edges, you can get them to wrap around the curve. Then take a round dowel or brass rod whatever and press down on the wrapped edge, you can get a knife edge crease and tight fit. A couple of drops of rubber cement on the front strap would be ok but I used no adhesive....

Thanks! I'll look into it.

Well, I had one put on. It does make a difference & I do grip it better.

Thanks for bringing our attention to this inexpensive alternative to hand checkering the frontstrap area!
