Colt lightning slide wood

Fazer1 · January 2017

I am looking for some replacement slide wood for a medium frame Lightning. I've looked around, wrote a couple letters asking about availability, but haven't received an answer from anyone.

I would prefer original, but repro's are fine. Any suggestions where else to look.

Thanks

I shoot my Lightnings a lot. Good fun and accurate, simple to load for, Plus they hold a lot of ammo, especially the 32/20.

Thanks for the links. Yes the originals are too much for the gun they are going on. I ordered a repro instead. Now to get rid of the extras.
