I got this (Uberti?) Regulator .45LC a while ago. It's a very nice, accurate pistol with two notable exceptions: The trigger is pretty gritty and the faux pearl birdshead grips, while comfortable, are ****ing atrocious.
I'm seriously ashamed to be seen shooting it, for fear I will be approached by a curious gentleman inquiring about the going rate for an evening with my finest 'ho.
The underside reads "American Arms, Inc. N.K.C. - MO. Made in Italy" which after Googling suggests it is made by Uberti. I found some unfinished wood OEM grips that I will try to fit to the gun. Are these (http://www.vtigunparts.com/store/shopexd.asp?id=1461) 1873 Birsdhead grips (#11) the proper type?
