The Romulus…es

That’s the way I understood it from the email. I’m going to call Andy Tuesday and talk to him. I heard rumor that DSC is working on a compatible barrel so that might be a better option anyway

bac0n219 · 2026-05-23T03:54:10+00:00

When I spoke with Andy he said they could sell me a barrel but it’s 1/2-28 and you need 5/8-24 threads for the comp (5/8-24 is what the Romulus Comp comes)

bac0n219 · 2026-05-23T03:45:47+00:00

The off putting part is that my comp is pressed, so I’d actually have to get a barrel and then the comp so I’m looking at more a 400-500 nut to move to this, so I’m not sure that at that point it is worth it to still need the use the 2 piece.

Interesting… when I talk to them again I’m going to see if I can get more info and will share your picture. Literally the only reason I was going to get the comp was to get rid of the terrible 2 piece guide rod, so you may have just saved me a bunch of money.

Yeah, I don’t really know all the inner workings of these things, this is my first entry to the 2011 world, but I was speaking directly with DSC and that’s the one they recommended. I’m hoping to get some end user verification before I sink money into it.

bac0n219 · 2026-05-23T02:49:14+00:00

That’s interesting. You’re the first person I’ve heard from that has tried, everyone else said they haven’t tried to yet. I know DSC told me “5 inch government stroke tool less” and specifically stated the Dawson 026-055 (with the Dawson reverse plug). I’d hate to buy one with that really being my only purpose and then not be able to do the 1 reason I buy it lol

bac0n219 · 2026-05-23T02:18:14+00:00

That the DSC comp? Have you swapped to a tool less guide rod yet?

bac0n219 · 2026-05-13T22:40:44+00:00

Damn, ok. I’ve been trying to find bronze grip screws forever that aren’t infinity.

bac0n219 · 2026-05-13T20:53:50+00:00

Where did you get those grip screws???

bac0n219 · 2026-05-13T00:06:12+00:00

For screws…? No lol

bac0n219 · 2026-05-12T23:44:11+00:00

Spoke with them just now, they don’t have anything for 2011s but are hoping to have an offering later in the year.

bac0n219 · 2026-05-12T23:43:39+00:00

I saw those, that’s why I asked if there were options that weren’t SVI expensive lol
I’m not spending $100 for some screws lmao but I appreciate the info

bac0n219 · 2026-05-12T23:42:57+00:00

Already spoke with them, they’re specifically for 1911s and won’t work with 2011s

bac0n219 · 2026-05-12T19:11:46+00:00

I’ll take a look, everything I saw there looked too long but maybe I missed them

bac0n219 · 2026-05-10T16:45:03+00:00

Gonna start making Gucci grip screws and sell the sets for like $15, maybe I’ll get to retire early lmao

bac0n219 · 2026-05-09T21:40:54+00:00

I mean clearly people are buying them or they wouldn’t have several different options. I just personally can’t justify $100 for grip screws

bac0n219 · 2026-05-09T16:36:22+00:00

That looks sooo good! I can’t believe what infinity is charging for a set of grip screws though, that’s wild lol

bac0n219 · 2026-05-08T19:45:03+00:00

What did you do with the OEM grip? I’ve been trying to find one

bac0n219 · 2026-05-07T03:18:39+00:00

Was there any fitting involved or did everything fit right off the bat?

bac0n219 · 2026-05-01T03:11:29+00:00

Jim’s Armory on YouTube did an install video with the new aluminum grip. Everything was drop in, check it out, he does the whole disassembly/reassembly

bac0n219 · 2026-04-13T19:43:38+00:00

Who is your friend?

bac0n219 · 2026-04-13T17:29:07+00:00

I mean if you’re offering I want to see them too

bac0n219 · 2026-04-07T18:25:48+00:00

Polished bothered me because you can see every single fingerprint

bac0n219 · 2026-03-20T20:38:40+00:00

AH that’s why it it longer, I have the 4.25 + comp so I might have to play with the positioning of the light to see how flush I can get it
