Super! After ordering the Dakota bottom metal and the Sunny Hill bottom metal from Brownells, I was disappointed with each for the following reasons:
1. Both were in the white - I would have to pay for bluing
2. Neither were a drop in fit - the dimensions would require additional inletting
3. Although more dimensionally ideal to the Sunny Hill, the finish of the Dakota was sloppy, and the Sunny Hill, although perfectly machined and sharp, was too beefy in the trigger guard for me (requiring additional metal shaping) - I returned both for a refund.
Then I found the Williams bottom metal - I was skeptical because of the price, but after receiving it I am pleased.
Conclusion: The Williams bottom metal costs less than either the Dakota or the Sunny Hill, is available in blued (or in polished blued as I needed), and although I found the overall bluing finish to be less than perfect (it is about 80-90% fine IMO for a polished finish), the dimensions are fine and the fit is fine - I only had to scrape slight amounts of paint from my HS Precision stock for it to fit. A great value and a quality product - close tolerances in the lever latch and sharp, unrounded corners. The only disappointment I have with this product? _ No serrations on the lever latch, but I can live with that. Both the Dakota and the Sunny Hill had serrations, the Sunny Hill have far superior serrations.
