Great replacememt

Firing pin return springs broke in my 1911 after some heavy shooting sessions. I replaced the broken one with the Wilson combat xp26 spring. I bought this to replace the old stop along with the broken spring because why not. It is well mafe and I have had no issues with it or the new spring. There was no fitting required and it fits perfectly.

Very Nice Fit

Bought 3 of these for my Colt 1911's. They all fit very nicely; as good as I could have hand fit an oversized one myself. Keeps the extractor from clocking. Does not clip the top, back edge of the frame.

Excellent

Replaced MIM firing pin stop. Expected to have to fit but fit perfectly without altering.

Good but not perfect

Great tight fit but minor fitting required to clear the ejector on a kimber ultra tactical II. For which, I am not surprised. Haven't fired it yet but I don't foresee any problems

Do not waste your money

I do not recommend this. This piece was much sloppier and loose fitting in place of the factory M.I.M. firing pin stop that was in my Custom II. It clearly says on the packaging that the "bullet proof parts" are fully machined with great care and a high quality firing pin stop should fit snugly. Maybe Wilson should actually take what they put onto a product description to heart because these are junk.
