[QUOTE="coolhandluke, post: 3303433, member: 13284"] The side profile is pretty much the same (slightly wider) and S&A cut grips fit well.

Not sure if it warrants twice the asking price for most folks though. Stan still offers a couple different versions of the gunsmith required magwells that require the frame to be cut. Here's the S&A for comparison...
