I tossed a Wilson Combat group gripper into the cart with my last Midway order and have run into a problem with it. The I.D. of the slide stop pin hole in the Group Gripper barrel link is slightly too large. I called Midway and Wilson Combat in hopes of purchasing an under-size link, but such a thing does not exist. The only solutions that I can come up with are to mill a custom link, install an oversize slide stop, or the most likely option of returning it for a refund. I really don't see it being worth the trouble, but if someone knows of an easier fix then I'll keep it.
By the way, the slide stop pin isn't worn. I've put less than 1000 rounds down the barrel of this springfield and the factory link fits perfectly. Is it possible that the Wilson Combat link was machined too large and a simple exchange would solve it? The rep that I talked to at WC seemed clueless....
