    If you are looking for a safe queen, the Eclipse. If your going to use it a lot the Warrior. You can alway get the Eclipse and just drop it right away, ssolves the safe queen issue.

      I use grip tape on my DW and have added a few up grades. EB MSH with mag well and VZ recon grips. It's been a great shooter, only 1400 rounds fired so far but it's been a sweet running gun. Pluses are series 1 gun and standard GI recoil spring and plug. With my TRP I had to ditch the full length guide rod and buy the parts to convert it to GI.
      I like what you've done with yours. Very nice! I may just have to use grip tape also.

        Here's a better pic of the grip tape on the DW and my MC OP. I just cut to fit and replace as needed. It last a long time really.

          I really like it as it blends in with the other black parts of the pistol. Thanks for the recommendation! I just SSE'd the Desert Warrior and will be picking it up next week.
