1990, Hamilton Bowen told me that RedHawk firing pins tended to be short. Part of his work was to fit one that was long enough.

Yup. The challenge for mere mortals is the spring is held in with a pin that has to be machined to match the curves of the frame. It's a big enough PITA on SS, but with blued guns you then have to worry about matching the finish.

Hogue

There's a set of Ahrends on eBay right now for $130 but I decided to go Ahrends for an easier way to mount a lanyard

Always been intrigued by the JM wood grips.

I meant to say to go with hogues.

Me too. Dillon has unmarked jm grips I almost got but I found these on eBay for $20 less.

I like JMs.

I replaced the candy canes on my 625 PC with a set after trying about 7 others.

I have stubby fingers, so, YMMV.

That’s a good looking gun!

I have a set of wooden Hogues, Ahrends and some made in Thailand wooden grips but I seem to shoot best with the rubber Hogues that came OEM on my 629MG. YMMV with the .45 Colt which to my mind is a better cartridge for what the MG is intended to do.
