YAVAPAI 1911 SLIDE JIG

YAVAPAI 1911 SLIDE JIG Reviews & Ratings

Developed by the gunsmithing students at Yavapai College, the Brownells/Yavapai 1911 Slide Jig is a solid aluminum, milling-vise fixture that securely holds all models of 1911 Auto slides. The fixture allows for four different positions for more precise milling of low-mount sight dovetails, extractor rollover cuts, front cocking serrations, French side cuts, ejection port lowering, and 1° comp cuts. It also makes a convenient, easy-to-hold handle for power-sanding and polishing.

Extremely useful slide holding fixture
I've actually had one of these for about 20 years and got it from Brownells. This is a rugged tool, that has held many hundreds of slides during machine operations in my shop. It is used for milling for sights, slide porting and relieving, and for flat topping and ribbing the slide. I also use it when milling in forward serrations into the slides. I have added an extra hole for a lock screw to hold the short slides that are not accommodated by the stock fixture. This is an A-Plus fixture that has survived decades in a busy shop.
