TJ'S 1911 SERIES '80 TO SERIES '70 CONVERSION SHIMS™ Reviews & Ratings

Purchased this shim spacer for my Colt 1911 lightweight commander and it fit perfectly and did the job as advertised. My trigger pull went down close to 1 lbs and a lot smoother. If you have a standard series 80 1911 whether Colt or any of the clones get the standard size .057 shim.

Just what I needed, Quick turn around for obscure parts. I love that

Used this to modify a Sig-GTO to 70 Series...easy to install and fit perfectly... highly recommend this part.

I installed this in a Sig GTO that will be used for competition(s)…This is a good alternative to the Wilson.

PART FIT GREAT,,EASY INSTALLATION,,AND SOLVED THE EVER PRESENT SERIES 80 PISTOL COMPLAINT. HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ANYONE WANTING TO CURE THE HICCUPS GIVEN WITH A SERIES 80 TYPE 1911 MECHANISM. DON'T CONDEMN THE PISTOL,,REPAIR IT ONCE AND FOR ALL. THANKS-PETE P,,,WOOD DALE,IL

Converted my Taurus Commander, and I am very happy with the results.

Well made. Perfect fit. Normal function. Installation was not difficult. (It requires a little patience, but once you get the Sear Pin through the Sear/Disco/Shim/Frame, the Hammer Pin lines up easily and you are good-to-go.)

Got a deal on a used series 80. Trigger was okay but little stitches. This par made it perfect!!!!!! I purchased all three sizes to make sure I had the right fit…not too tight, not too loose. Highly polished the one I used. Very simple and elegant fit. One last thing…not an advisable part for conceal carry. You could be in trouble in court.

Well I was, have been since first reading about them. I’ve had a Taurus 38 Super for 20 odd years. It’s always been a fine shooter but that little extra pre-travel in the trigger has caused me to wish I had an affordable way to clean it up a bit. The Taurus frame is milled differently from most other 1911’s, so it didn’t just drop in and sit in place. It doesn’t require any fitting, just a little more aggravation aligning and starting the pins. I don’t know of anything I could have done for anywhere near this small amount of money to bring me this level of satisfaction from this pistol. It did lighten the pull a little, but it did away with all the creep. If you’re on the fence, go for it.

takes the slop out when removing the transfer bar safety. It can be a bit challenging to get it to stay in place but once I discovered the proper angle to insert it in the frame.
