Rink grip on the LP10e..

Post by DanielSwe »

So. just got my rink grip for the lp10e which has being waiting naked at home..

Now, either I'm stupid or something is amiss..
I can't figure out how to mount the grip. If I use the bolt and screw it on it won't sit snugly.
I'd hope for stupid, cause I really want to shoot my new gun now...

Any ideas?

You need to look very carefully at how the old and new grip fit. You many need to do a very small amount of work inside the new grip to make it fit snuggly. I know I had to with my rink LP10 / LP5 grips.

It will need some fitting also don't forget the rest plate from the old grip part 73.7 in the picture. The grip angle adjustment screws sit against this plate.

bolt length

Post by FredB »

I've seen a couple of Rink grips that required a different length attachment bolt than the factory grip. If you're using the factory attachment bolt (73.9 above), perhaps it's too long for the Rink grip. It would bottom out and feel tightly screwed in, but the grip would not be secure.

HTH,

Thanks for the quick answers!
It was the rest plate 73.7 that was missing. Couple extra days waiting after 4 weeks waiting for the grip :(
