GRIPS! Quick tips and tricks.

[340pd]

Hogue slip on that I put on upside down. Less than $10 retail. Be sure to cut out to allow mag release to work without restriction. I slid a piece of matchbook cover under it to protect the factory grip while I carefully cut as needed with a razor blade.

Obviously both methods work, and there are probably several others that achieve the desired result.

Like this?


Trouble with this is you have to Preview Post or Submit Reply to see how your picture is going to look. Doing it my way, you see your picture immediately while you are still editing the post.

I've never used your method so I don't know the advantages it offers, but as far as knowing what the picture looks like... I already know. I took it.

But seriously... I have on occation "borrowed" a photo from Photbucket, and upon opening the post see that is is either enormous, small or not quite appropriate. I'll have to attempt your method for those times when I'm not sure what exactly will appear.

You should have a paperclip at the top of the reply screen.

Not too get too far off topic here. But I do not have the paperclip! I also can't customize any of my own photos on my control panel!! How dedicated must I be too the site before i get these FREEDOMS!?!!

Jason, that is an attachment method I have never used because it severely limits picture size. Here is the way I do it after having uploaded pictures to a Photobucket account.

Here's are links to the three sizes available at Midway. I suspect you would need a size 2.

Size 1 - http://www.midwayusa.com/product/389...-polymer-black

Size 2 - http://www.midwayusa.com/product/848...-polymer-black

Size 3 - http://www.midwayusa.com/product/364...-polymer-black

TucsonMTB,
Took your advice and got the Size 3 for my CM9.. PERFECT! T-h-a-n-k-s!

very good thread... thanx

[aKahrt_and_p2KT]

my qwik grip looks like it was made to fit my cm9, most people don't even notice there is an additional grip because like the picture posted, it matches so well.
