Slappy McTrigger
My Own Safe Space
I set out to resolve an issue with my grip. Because of how high I am over the safety, I ride my slide. I don't feel anything despite the sharp serrations cheese grating over my thumb but have slowed my slide to a noticeable degree. Figured that the cyclic rate is hurt if nothing else and a reduced chance of a failure were both good enough reasons to warrant a purchase (not that reasoning is needed). That is when I happened upon the Swenson. I read that the finish was rough and that substantial fitting may be required. The price diff between it and the few others I found was substantially lower but still overpriced IMHO. I wanted to go with a safety because machining a slot for a shield into my frame scares me. I placed an order and when the part came in I would describe it as pot metal. It wasn't just rough, it felt cheap. Worse, there was a major structural deficit in the left side shaft that meets to pin the grip safety. I am waiting on a Pheonix Trinity safety now and will submit a comparison upon its arrival.
Just figured id share.
