Drops in as advertised
Hammer fits perfectly in my 1911. The only thing I was not crazy about when I opened the package was that the sides were not blued as shown in the picture. The wide surfaces and where the sear rides are all blued but not the sides. I did change my mind after installing the hammer, the silver sides make it look great. nice product, good fit, The lower rounded profile compared to the factory hammer will lessen the chance of clothes snags when carrying concealed.

Great product for the money
I picked up an ATI Govt. Model for protection. Out of the box it had a 10-lb.+ trigger pull. I reworked the original hammer and sear and was able to achieve a 6.5# pull. Not being satisfied with the creep or pull I ordered the Wilson Combat Value Line Hammer & Sear. With a little bit of polishing of the Wilson Sear and hammer hooks, I achieved a 3-lb 10oz. trigger with no other alterations. This pistol now has a very nice, yet very predictable release.

Great product, but needs stoning
The sear had a great looking cut on it right out of the box, but it was too long to fit my remington R1. The hammer wouldnt lock when you racked the slide. Once I stoned it to .020" It worked awesome. Good quality and has shot excellent since the trigger job!

WC Sear
Bought this sear along with the WC Value Line Hammer. The angle only needed slight stoning to get just right and I needed to work on the sear for about an hour to shorten it, but I'll chalk that up to 'required fitting" or whatever term you seem fit to apply. Either way, great product! Two thumbs up, for sure.

needed some stoning done or would have been 5 stars. other than that works great!

good hammer for wc beaver tail
this hammer dropped with in as i hoped on my RIA 1911 government. fit was pretty good, was a little sloppy but no more then the stock gi hammer. put the hammer and beaver tail in, and took about 30 minutes. the only thing that irritated me was the sides are shiny and i wasnt expecting that, or i would have ordered the trigger too so it would have "matched". also it does scrap the beaver tail a slight bit when fully cocked. therefore i gave it a 4 star. all in all it is a good product and worked great. i will be ordering another for my RIA 1911 officer.

SA Loaded
Bought these to replace factory parts on my SA Loaded 9mm. The hammer is drop-in with factory sear without any adjustments. Only, you will not have the full benefit without matching sear. The value sear had to be slightly filed in my case to allow thumb safety to be full engaged. It makes the release now much smoother and without "sandy" feel as with the factory parts.

A good combination with VL Hammer
This sear was a little rough, requiring a little more smoothing than normal due to a seam line resulting from the manufacturing process. However, once it is smoothed and fitted properly, the trigger is great. I have one on my 1911 for over 7 years and it has performed well. I recently installed one on a customer's Colt Goverment Model, and it he is very pleased with the results.

good two stage hammer
Great quality but unlike the picture represents the hammer is stainless on the left and right side. Fit my springfield A1 with no mods.
