Picked up this EGW checkered mainspring housing in their bargain bin for $25, plus another 15% off for Black Friday. It was a blem with a few areas that were dinged up in the checkering, but really not that bad. Cleaned em up a little bit with my file and bead blasted. Fits the frame better, looks better, and gives better traction.
Notice the old one was sitting recessed in the frame pocket and left the corners of the frame exposed. Nice simple and cheap improvement here.
