Series 70 Firing Pin Stop .45 Stainless Steel [10361] (+$5.00)

Description

EGW firing pin stops are wider than normal to prevent extractor from turning, which leads to more reliable ejection. Also, the firing pin stop is thicker to eliminate lateral movement.

The inside corners are radiused to prevent cracking so the part lasts longer. The back corner is squared to slow the slide opening.

Oversize FPS
Installed this part in a Springfield build, it took a lot of fitting but that's a great thing as the original FPS would just fall out if I breathed on it. I put a lite bevel just to break the edge and polished the bevel and bottom. This is a superior product!!!

Oversized Series 70 Firing Pin Stop
I first used one of these on a 7 port comp 10mm Caspian build along with mostly EGW parts. This FPS is superior and goes back to Brownings original design. It uses the hammer spring to start to slow the slide allowing a lighter recoil spring and a much smoother and faster recovery after each shot. Now I have these in 5 other 1911's.

Best Firing Pin Stop Available
This is the best firing pin stop available. Can be made to fit tight in any slide no matter how large or out of spec the channels are. Tight FPS a must for rock solid dependability. EGW is a good company with friendly staff.
