FIRING PIN, 1911, .45 ACP, BULLET PROOF, TITANIUM

High quality part, no question, and works great. Price is high however, and shipping is very high, and was relatively slow. A similar size/weight part was ordered from a different company, and shipping was $4.95 for USPS, and arrived faster.

For those of us who like to change or improve our firearm this is a perfect way to improve lock time upon ignition! I have used three now and would recommend you try it today at its newly lowered price point????

This is a good firing pin, I just learned the hard way it does not work in all 1911s. I have a full size 45ACP Wilson Combat X Tac Elite and this pin would not fit. After trying a few times, I realize the firing pin that came with my Wilson Combat was skinnier. Checked around, and learned that Wilson Combat ships their 45ACP 1911s with a 9mm firing pin. I tried the firing pin in my Kimber and it works, but when I was function testing my gun after a few uses, I realized that the Schwartz firing pin safety was not working. After panicking for a bit wondering what happened, I realized it was the firing ping. Reverted back to the Kimber firing pin and the gun function checked fine. Wound up using this titanium firing pin in a Kimber Warrior that is a Series 70 style 1911 with no firing pin block safety.

Drop In Performance for my Kimber 4'' Pro. Was factory part bad? No. Do I need a titanium firing pin? No. Can you count on Wilson Combat to deliver fit, finish and performance? Yes! Does lock up time make a difference? You be the judge!

I recently purchased this product from Wilson. Although it was backordered, and I was told it could be a few weeks, it came within 4 days after I placed the order. When replacing the old stock firing pin I noticed a few things. First, the Wilson piece is much lighter, with 3 circular relief cuts on the back end of the pin that rides in the channel. Secondly the contact point between the hammer and pin has a slight radius cut. This helped it fit perfectly into the backing plate which holds the firing pin in. In addition, this will prevent mushrooming over time, although given the quality of this piece Id bet a lot that wouldnt happen. Still, its nice to know people at Wilson are thinking about these sort of things as even a tiny but of mushrooming on the firing pin could easily cause problems. The piece functions flawlessly as it should and primer strikes are much more centered and seem to be deeper even on the hardest primed steel case stuff. In addition the color of the titanium has a sleeker look. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to upgrade their FP. I just wish shipping was a bit cheaper, as I just realized this FP is available on Amazon for 27$ with free shipping, when I spent 9$ to get it to me.

fit/function perfect, direct replacement.

Bought the Bullet Proof Titanium firing pin for my RIA. This was a straight forward drop in upgrade, and when compared to the part I removed, is remarkable. No light primer strikes here, as every primer shows a nice uniform depression. This is a great product, Thanks Wilson Combat.

The Wilson pin specs perfectly, fits perfectly in every 1911 Ive put them in as replacements for steel. Great finish, the pin has been durable and 100% reliable for me. Used to use Ed Browns titanium pins, but they spec a bit long and require fitting.

Faster action once you squeeze the trigger than anything out there. I bought one to try it out and ended up buying 3 more the following week. It is one of the best reliability upgrades you can do on any gun.
