[QUOTE="K5FAL, post: 3279246, member: 44999"] Here is a Colt Commander Series 70 purchased mid 1970’s by my dad and the grip safety has what appears to be a nasty crack in it. Maybe my old man dropped it, who knows? [IMG]https://imagizer.imageshack.com/img922/6550/6i5Oe3.png[/IMG] So ... I got to thinking... I could jerk this part out of the gun, degrease it, heat the area with a soldering iron, and let silver solder flow into the crack. What could possibly go wrong?? Finish appears to be satin nickel.
