Solid Steel 1911 Barrel Link
Excellent steel. I had to thin it out by 0.008" to fit undersized lower lugs on a 1911 aftermarket barrel. Unfortunately, this standard size 0.278" link was too long. Will purchase again.

Fixed the feeding problem
Bought #1 and #2 to fix a feeding problem on a project gun. The #1 link closed up the gap and fixed it.
Perfect
Paired with brownells link pin, no honeing of the holes is required. The kit come with 0-5 links and slide stop hole is .205. Great machining.
The best 1911 link period!
The EGW Link Kit provides the best and most versatile option on the market. When all fitting procedures are followed (Installation of NM or Match barrel) this link kit provides a quick and easy way to tune and refine the function and reliability of a 1911. I have never had a link fail or cause malfunctions. I have never had a barrel failure do to improper link timing. I have a ton of left over links floating around but I always purchase a new EGW link kit for my customer builds to ensure all aspects of timing and function have been satisfied. This product has always passed every inspection and qualification process I throw at it. Flatness, parallelism, squareness, etc. (GD&T stuff) I always qualify every part that goes into a build and EGW has provided the most accurate, reliable and easy to use product I have tried. (Side Note: I think the 'fitting required' option provided on the Cons option should also be put in the Pros column as well.)
para match barrel sloppy everything else
my para barrel moved down .010 thou put num 4 link in it now nice and tight no problem in timing
Guys note EGW's post
Please note that George's post is AFTER the failures. How often do we complain about a product, then the manufacturer changes it for us? He changed both material and heat treatment. Give him another chance, please. I will. But I never had an old one fail, so...
EGW Changed Material
We read the reviews. We changed materials. Stress proof material was heat treated but if a barrel is not fitted properly the link is the weak point. We changed over to 4140 and raised the heat treat. All links are now made from 4140 chrome molly and they are blue so you can see the difference. thank you for the work! geo
