    I just noticed that one of the grip screws is missing on my 1911. Ichecked my range bag. Nothing.
    :(

    I started looking around on line. I'm not looking for anything special. It's just a cheap Citadel (basically a Rock Island Armory).

    I found some cheapies. And I saw some pretty expensive ones, too.

    But this one blew my mind....

    $100+ for four screws??? WTH????

    Yes, you have a screw loose.

    Each screw comes with 11 replacements.

    Still pretty expensive, though.
