    Thanks Kor! This is what i wanted to hear. ('just didn't want to make a newb mistake) I'll just take off those sharp little tips. Tex, i've moved my grip a couple times. i wanted to keep thumbs forward (1911 style). but just couldn't keep good control. I think i'm also in the market for a...

    {{says to self >> No such thing as a stupid question... no stupid questions... no stupid questions.}} :o Any advice on filing down the thumbpiece on a S&W M642? I've had this pistol for a few weeks. Shoots well (with nice kick). I've developed a slight callus on my right thumb (strong...
