Nowlin Speed Demon 2 Action Kit 3lb Pull

Kit was installed in my Springfield Armory 1911A1, which I've had for about 30 years. Pistol had a horrible trigger, and I decided to do something about it. Parts were installed by me without any problems. I don't own a trigger gage, so I don't know if its 3lbs or what, but it is now much better than it was, so, I'm very happy with it.

From 8 lbs down to 4.5 lbs

I really am impressed with this set. By now I'm sure there is really no such thing as drop in 1911 kits, because you have to do minor adjustments to almost everything, but not quite. The sear and disconnector fit just right. I had to modify the hammer, because it would not fit to the grip safety. That's on me, because my grip safety does not fit the Commander Style hammer. But it worked with my modification. The sear spring needed a little tweaking, and I think that's probably true of all replacement sear springs. This went into a Norinco clone of the 1911A1, which had a horrendous, almost 8 lb trigger pull. Now it breaks about 4.25 lbs, which is tremendous improvement. I learned so much from this upgrade, and with some research, and careful gunsmithing (at home), I'm really happy with this kit ! If you want to improve the trigger pull on your 1911, you will be very pleased with this Nowlin Speed Demon II Action Kit.

Would buy again

Installed one in my Colt Gov. model last night . Install was easy .Just remember how the old parts came out and put the new ones in the same way . Now the trigger pull is right at 4 pounds and it breaks beautiful . Very happy .

It's nice to buy American made products.

The first kit I received had a issue with the hammer. I contacted the company and the President contacted me back and shipped me a replacement which worked flawlessly. Great company/people to work with.

The easest way to upgrade your 1911

I install this trigger job kit along with the 1911 AUTO ULTRALIGHT MATCH TRIGGER and it took my gun to a whole other level!!! Sweet, crisp and precise gun and really makes a difference at the range. *** Be careful if you don't have a beaver tail on your 1911 because that will be something you will have to replace too ***

This Knowlin kit does the job well

I replaced the hammer, sear, sear spring, diconnector, and main spring in my colt XSE. The colt had a 4 1/2 pound trigger pull, and after installation the trigger pull was clean, crisp, 3 1/4 pounds. I have fired about 12000 rounds since the installation and the trigger is still as good as it was upon installation.
