Maybe an ounce or two there. An alloy rod could be made if your splitting hairs but I bet it would be only grams different. I like the modded alloy gripframes to change balance and lighten up things some.
I don't have the parts laying about but would love a thorough comparative study as to the differences in grip frames and ejector housings etc. Just interesting reference. An ounce or two from one end to the other can really change the overall feel of a piece.
I have my ElDiablo .44 Spec. and .38-40 OM both customized with the lighter alloy Gunfightered grip frames.
