[rec.guns] Grendle Arms Address Request

gordonh@milton.u.washington.edu (Gordon Hayes) (05/25/91)

I went and bought a grendel (grendle?, I'll have to figure THAT one
our real quickly) .380.  Not bad for an inexpensive arm.  It is
double action (forever and always, evidently) loads through the
top down with no clip, takes hardball, and doesn't seem to jam
(amazing).  It's kind of like those cameras you buy and
throw away when finished, no speed loading here I guess.  Just took
a little modification to my homemade holster that I made to fit
my S&W59 AND my Walther PPK/S (thought I was rather creative
with that one, made it when I was a parachute rigger in the
Air Force.

Okay, getting to the question:  It came with no paperwork from 
whom I purchased it from.  Does anyone have the address for
this company or know what it takes to get an owners guides from
them?

Also, I'm wondering (for the gunsmith-minded in the crowd) if there
is any way to make it work single action after the first shot,
through any modifications, I mean, for it to cock the hammer
with the first shot off.  I figure I'm wasting my time on this one,
but it doesn't cost anymore to ask along with the question
of the company's address.

I looked over the Davis, but just couldn't get into it.  Weird,
it seems, I could either go full single action, or full double
action, but no combination thereof for the price, well, what
do you expect, eh?

Thanks.
