Wood grip restoration question
Recently acquired a used S&W Model 39 with the original walnut grips. One panel is loose, however; even with the screw tightened all the way, due to wear, the panel moves around under the screw heads. Question is, what kind of durable compound can I use to slightly fill in the screw hole in the wood panel so it sits snug under the grip screw?

I would fill it with a piece of dowel rod then re-drill it or, I wonder if you can do the O-Ring trick that some guys use with their 1911 grips.

You might try a rubber o-ring.

Hadn't thought about the rubber O-ring, thanks. That should work nicely.
