I noticed my grips were getting loose so i tried to tighen them and noticed that they wouldn't tighten back up, so I investigated, turns the threads in the frame are stripped, the bushings just spin in the frame, I've been able to get three of the four off.
What are my options here? do I put them back in with a bunch of heavy duty loktite, or have a smith retap the frame and use bigger bushings? its a Springfield 1911 A1 loaded with the lightweight frame.
another option I'm thinking about is getting a new frame, only steel this time, maybe commander sized.
