Does that modified grip saftey make it easier to dissengage? I sometimes notice that if I don't have a perfect grip my tirgger clicks as if the grip saftey is not fully released.

Look nice but you can't view the pics by clicking on them. It takes you to Brian Eno's forum where you are prompted for a login.

Yes it makes it easier to disengage the safety.

Now I get a "You don't have permission to view" message. Try photobucket or imageshack.

The attached thumbnails were done through this site so there is a problem here.
I don't use photobucket or imageshack.
The Brian Enos forum doesn't cost anything to register and there is alot of good info there on shooting.
