Well, the Nill grips showed up in the mail yesterday, and once again the USPS did it's best to hose me. This time they didn't succeed. The box for the priority mail (which you buy at the post office) was crushed almost flat. It looked as tho it had been either stepped on or run over by something heavy. Fortunately MacTec had wrapped the grips pretty well in heavy wrapping paper and they survived. I guess this just proves that no matter how incompetant you are if you have a government monoply any organization can survive. Oh well, rant over, the grips are safe. Now I can go back to waiting on the gun. Happy holidays everyone. Gene
