Yep, lots. What's the question?

The big draw to lone wolf frames is the grip angle and the actual pic rail. Mine has seen hard use and is holding up well. Most of the internals are stock Glock. I had one issue with them: the mag release button has a spring that is too weak and the button is too big. I called to ask for a smaller button or stronger spring, they told me I was shooting wrong if I needed either, that no one else had an issue (I do so love when tech support says "we've never seen that before" when I know for certain they have.) So, with their utter lack of helpfulness, I ground down my button and all is well.

Let me know what questions you have.

Thanks RC. So is the grip angle 1911 like or different? And I think you answered my other concerns.

Grip angle was intentionally close to 1911. I have not measured it, might be exact match - though contour is different. It is definitely a strong departure from a standard Glock grip angle.

I have a few pictures somewhere, will try to put one up.

Thanks, I look forward to seeing your pictures of it.

Also is the trigger reach the same, shorter or longer?

A single stack Glock with a corrected grip angle might actually be worth having!
