Century Pistol Grips

FAL TAP · August 18, 2001, 07:54

I was wondering about the quality of the Century PG as compared to the DSA PG or FSE. Are they the same? I know that FSE is on the outside of the grip and wanted to get a grip without the "printed USA" or "Made By" on the outside. Can you see mold lines on the exterior?

Thanks in advance

The Century and FSE that I have appear to be about equal in finish and quality. Both have mold lines. Made in USA is hidden on Century. The Century had to be Dremeled to allow the selector to go into the fire detent. The out of the box fit seemed a little better on the Century which is a big surprise.

I have played, " FAL grip Roulette" a couple of times myself. Had no problem with the original grip, just wanted a USA made one for legality. Ordered a DSA model first. Lighter than original( this ain't bad ), material OK and it did have mold lines and mold circles on one side. Kinda shiny, so hit it with steel wool to "matte" it up a bit, OK now. Ordered Ergo/VOW STG style rigid grip. Not happy with it. Heavy and solid bottom except for nut hole. Just my opinion now, just do not like the "heavy" part. First 20 dollar bill in the mail to me gets it, I'll eat the loss and shipping.
