Looking good Timmy!!! Keep us posted on your progress :) Can't wait to see the outcome.  I have had my eye on the TalonSS and Condor for a while, may be selling off some of my springers soon, to fund some new PCP rifles...lol

I would say your "stop" sign definitely belongs in the "Hunting Gate"  :)

It's a hunting gun so it's in the right forum :)

Hey I wonder if the old forearm would fit on my condor.  It looks like the screw for it is further up but I could be wrong..  Want to sell the old grips?  :-)  

I went to pick up my Condor from the forearm stock and the thing came off in my hand!  The threads in the frame are stripped.  That's what happens when you have metal screws in an aluminum frame.  Many people are having this problem.  Be careful not to overtighten any of the screws.  The frame threads stip very easily!  I found one of the barrel screws stripped too which the previous owner forgot to mention.  I was checking all the screws and that one just kept turning.  Luckily there are 2 other screws that hold the barrel down but I have to get these fixed.  Has anyone used the heli-coil thread repair kit?  How hard is it to repair stripped threads?
