    Great For Colt 1991

    Posted by Ben on Mar 13th 2017

    I spent around and hour and a half fitting this and a retro bullet-proof hammer and re-fitting the thumb safety for this setup, to my Colt 1991 and it was more than worth it. My Colt took some skin off my hand so I went this route so I wouldn’t have to cut the frame. I looked around the internet at pictures of these installed on GI type 1911’s and I can tell you that with a 1991 there is very little gap and it looks excellent. As far as being close to drop in, I would say not quite. I had to file and polish two different spots on the trigger engagement area that looks to be over-sized to obtain a good fit. Being careful, I disassembled the pistol 8 times to check fitment. My future plans for this pistol included a full-fit beavertail but I can see myself saving some money and keeping this setup.

    Dropped in, feels and functions better than the stock GI. No fitting required. Matches Parkerised finish.

    Ria 1911A1 Gi

    Posted by Anonymous on Oct 30th 2016

    Great finish and it would have been very straight forward install but one of the tangs on my 1911 was longer than the other and was binding on the wing of the beaver tail on that side. I filed the wing of the grip safety back a little and the fit was fine then I had to do some normal fitting for proper engagement with the trigger stirrup and it works beautifully. You cant even see where I took the wing back because the tang covers it. Great product with a great price.

    A Great Product.

    I like this part but,to me, I think the upper edge of the hump should be more rounded for greater comfort in the grip.
