Description
Upgrade your factory 1911, or complete your 80% 1911 frame.
Not all 1911s are created equal. Maybe your factory gun has a gritty trigger, or a sloppy slide. Pins might walk as you send rounds downrange — all of these issues contribute to poor reliability and accuracy.
This kit’s the fix-it ticket. Featuring precision-machined, U.S.-made, polished components, this 1911 parts kit provides an immediate, all-in upgrade for your factory 1911. It’s also compatible with our 80% frames, making completing your custom build a breeze.
