If any of you have done this, any pointers like best place to locate aluminum grip frame, etc? I have swapped frames in the past, just never gone from SBH long frame to standard. Jim Wilson has a 7.5" OM done this way and that's sorta what I'm looking for. BTW, mine is fairly recent NM with laminated grips if that makes a difference. Thanks,

Rob
