You get what you pay for
I was working on a Kimber .45ACP and the mainspring housing broke (plastic/polymer). Granted, it was probably my fault, but this one is much more durable. It should last the life of the gun. The checkering matches the factory checkering on the front strap of the Kimber. It was not the cheapest metal mainspring housing, but it was in stock and Edge shipping got it to me quickly.
Colt 1911 Govt. Model 5" 45acp Blue
12-24-2018 I installed this nighthawk custom 1911 Govt. Model blue mainspring housing on my Colt 1911 5" 45acp Govt. Model 80 series pistol. My Colt had a plastic one and I did not care for that. This main spring housing fit WITHOUT any fitting at all. Just take the parts from your plastic one and put them in the Nighthawk one and your good to go. Went right in to place. Checkering is awesome, finish is awesome. If your looking for a replacement I highly recommend this one.
Great Product
Just installed this on a Colt Combat Commander. Some minor fitting, a couple needle files & stoning, no big deal. Looks & handles great. I've got a couple Norincos I've had for some time. Going to get the same treatment.
Excellent Part
Bought two of these to replace the curved mainspring housings on a couple of Girsan 1911s. Dropped right in with no fitting. Excellent fit. They look beautiful on the pistols and very much improve the grip and point of the pistols for my medium-sized hands. Nice checkering, very well-made. Easy to install. Allows proper engagement of the grip safety with no fitting. Highly recommend.
First Class Part
This part dropped in to my Kimber TLE II with great ease and no fitting. It looks like it was made with my gun, and feels great in the hand. Finish and cuts are excellent. Very well made part.
Great Mainspring Housing
Housing fits up and has correct depth on Colt Government 1991. Checkering is crip and clean. Nothing bad to say - works perfect, great quality.
