Very nice
Very nice trigger. Dont hesitate to buy this one. Drop in fit for my RIA M1911A1.
better than good
very good quality trigger, its over sized like advertised, makes for a perfect custom fit for any looking to be build a high quality and accurate gun
If fits, it works, it's great!
I installed this trigger on a Remington R1 1911. The original trigger was a short trigger and didn't have an overtravel stop screw. The Ed Brown trigger fit perfectly, eliminated much of the initial freeplay and allowed me to adjust the overtravel. All in all, a perfect trigger. I couldn't be happier.
Great Trigger
Very pleased with this trigger, gives crisp, smooth pulls every time. Required some filing to fit, nothing more than expected.
Very Pleased
I had to spend about half an hour filing and polishing to fit this into my milspec Springfield 1911, but once i got it just right, it works beautifully. I would highly recommend this product!
Great product!
I expected problems because I'm rebuilding a AMT Hardballer. The original trigger is steel and I had a great deal of trigger bounce at the pull weight I was trying to achieve. This trigger worked exceptionally well. Sure, some fitting is required, but the result was worth the trouble. I was so impressed, I'm buying a second for an AMT 1911 Government.
can't beat it for the price!
slight fitting and this fit perfectly in my SA 1911! bow is polished making the pull smoother. great if you have small hands like me!
Considered a competent gunsmith now
Follow the directions on Ed browns website and go slow. I Used a file and an Arkansas stone with a good set of dial calibers to check deminsions against the original shoe, everything feels great, not a five review because I haven't shot it yet due to Corona virus quarantine
Excellent trigger, if it needs fitting
I purchased this trigger first for my SAM Elite 1911. It required top and bottom filing to get it fitted in the frame, but once fitted, it works perfect. I bought another one for a RIA Compact 1911A1, and it's too small for slop free fitment. It drops in the RIA and is lighter than stock, but expect about the same play in the trigger as stock. These also don't have forward takeup tabs, so if you don't require that and don't mind some take up in your trigger, you'll be fine.
No such thing as 'standard' w/1911s!
Although the quality and craftsmanship of this trigger is stellar, keep in mind that there is no such thing as "standard" when it comes to 1911 parts. In particular, this trigger does not function correctly in a Para-Ordnance single-stack frame. After hours of fitting/prepping this trigger, I reassembled the pistol only to discover that the pistol didn't function properly. Further inspection with the help of a calipers revealed that the bow is roughly .065" longer than the original part. So unless you're willing to refit all your other parts to this trigger, or you have the ability to swap the bows, look elsewhere if you own a Para. As for everyone else, as I already stated the quality of this part is top-notch, and it looked pretty darn good in the assembled pistol before my bubble burst. This trigger is, IMO, an excellent value, too. My wife, who is the person for whom I was installing this trigger, would have really liked it. My only advice is to measure and compare everything before taking that first file stroke, in the event you need to return the part for a refund.
