The older I get he more I subscribe to "if it works don't fix it". I was reading the Glock epoxy thread, and it made me think of some mods to guns over the years that I later regretted. Nowadays when I think of changing something on a gun I ask myself if this is something I'm going to regret later. So here goes:
Bobbed hammer on a SP101, a gun I couldn't stand to fire SA, let alone DA.
Spring jobs on revolvers that wind up misfiring.
Had a smithy I knew mount a scope on Redhawk for me, and he drilled the hole off-center on the top strap.
Made and installed a dovetail front sight on a 1911, and was never happy with it.
Hogue grips on a big bore smith. These are now standard, and IMO suck.
Okay, your turn.
