...if you order for the 445, 415, 425, 450,606,607 the "Ribber Grips" which are a bit larger than the factory ones, and made of many small ribs to soak up recoil, also order the proper length screw as a seperate item...it doesn't come with the grips and the factory grip screw isn't long enough to even go through the bottom of the new grip...ask me how I know...5-7 days more to wait

You can get exact fit screws for about anything at Fastenal if ya'll have a local store.

...we do and I'll go by there...the thickness of the head's different...but maybeso...a fine thread...I've used them for work applications and they do well!!! Thanks for the tip...

I have used them for different length screws when changing grips. Sometimes with different heads, but liked them better!

Do you know of a source for smooth grips for a 445? I don't care for those ribber grips.

...I know a fella who's got a set of the factory pebbled finish rubber grips... ...but no aftermarket ones...I won't be using the originals anymore...my hand LOVES the ribbers...
