In some incidences the 6 point inside the grip panels may need to be trimmed to get the panels to fit properly. This can easily be done with a file. Simply remove the material from the corner or side in the direction you want to move the grip. Take one or two passes with the file and check the panel to the frame and the alignment of the screw hole. It should only take a pass or two to get the panels to line up. Check the other side before removing any material; it may not need any material removed. Then snug up the grip screw and check the function of the firearm prior to loading and firing.
Walther PPK/S and PP
These grips will not work with Double Action Only (DAO) Pistols. With the old grip off, hook the top of the grip panel under the top of the handle and with little pressure press the lower portion into place. Do not force the grip into place. If there is any interference remove that material with a fine file and taper the back edge to allow the grip to swing into place. Place the screw into the frame handle and snug the grip screw against the grip.

New model Blackhawk grips fit Single Six, Old Army, Vaquero and Super Blackhawk with the rounded trigger guard.
From time to time, you will find the roll pin that goes through the frame bent where they will misalign the grips with the frame. In these cases, we recommend that you replace the roll pin. You may also find the pin is offset and keeping one side of the grip from laying flat to the frame. Simply remove the grips and re-center the pin and reassemble the grips. DO NOT USE THE GRIP SCREW TO FORCE THE GRIPS TOGETHER.
SIG P938
If your Sig P938 has a disconnector bar raised above the frame or that rubs on your grip, DO NOT USE THE FIREARM
You will need to cut a 1/4″ notch on the back of the grip to accommodate it. Verify the correct functionality of your firearm by a qualified gunsmith before use.
The original Colt Government 1911 model has been duplicated by many other manufacturers ( such as Smith & Wesson, Kimber, Ruger, Dan Wesson, Ed Brown, Iver Johnson, Remington, Rock Island Armory, Springfield Armory, Sig Sauer, Taurus, Wilson, Combat, Les Baer, Nighthawk, Para Ordnance, and so many more).
AS a general rule, ALTAMONT 1911 Full-Size Panels will fit all full-size guns made by other manufacturers. You may want to measure the space between screws to make sure you have a Full Size 1911. If your 1911 is 3 1/16 between screws, then you have a Full Size. If your 1911 is 2 11/16 between screws, then it is a Compact, Officers, or Defender 1911.
