  • Looks sweet!
Awesome grip safety. Requires fitting, if your a novice have a Smith install it. Good 1911 parts do not drop in. Permanent frame modifications required.

  • One of the best mods on my Colt Gold Cup Trophy 1911!!
My Colt Gold Cup Trophy 1911 is my all-time favorite in my pistol collection. It's reliable, accurate, and I have fully customized it to my likings. However I wanted a higher tang grip at the beavertail safety to get a better purchase on gun when bringing it up to shoot. The OEM grip safety was too rattly and did not feel and look as good as I wanted it to, even after all my other mods that I have done to it. So I ordered the WC 298S and 402 jig kit, then gunsmithed it onto the 1911 myself. I could not be any happier with the way it functions and looks. The 298 grip safety definitely increased the grip quality, introduced an improved positive engagement, while being aesthetically pleasing. I may add that this particular grip safety is for .220 cut frame tangs so it will not fit a .250 cut frame. Make sure you do your research before buying this and then writing negative reviews about it not fitting correctly. ... show more

  • EXCELLENT!
What a piece! Used in my PSA virgin first time 1911 build. Obviously had to fit the tangs, then match the hammer radius and grip lines. And I had to file the hammer bow stop/release to give me adequate LOP (length of pull) to actuate the disconnector/sear engagement. I filed it on a slight upward angle also so there is no "grind" if you let of the grip safety before the trigger. Quite a lot of sanding. 120, to 240, to 320, 400, 600, 1000, then 2000 grit and a dremel wheel with flitz polisish... came out gorgeous! The sides rub the inside of the frame slightly and marr the polish but I'm happy with this piece. ... show more

  • Know what is required and this part is great
You need to get the fitting jig that matches this beaver tail. And you will need to fit the part. 1911’s are not glocks, parts don’t plug and play. If you can’t fit this don’t blame the part, find a competent gunsmith to do it for you. The part once installed feels beautiful in the hand.

  • Love the new grip safety...hated the fitting process
OK, let me start this by saying I am NOT a gunsmith in any way, shape, or form. I am a gun enthusiast, though, and have owned several 1911 style pistols. This was my second installation of a beaver-tail. I installed this one on a brand-new, out of the box, Remington 1911 stainless. I figured I'd maybe have to take a little material off the frame, as I had done when I installed a beaver-tail before on a series 70 Colt. Boy, did I ever! Thank-you Brownell's for the simple little cutting guide that fits in the pin hole for the safety. I had to file off at least a quarter of an inch of frame to get the safety to line up properly. The Brownell's guide let me grind it down quickly, without too much worry about taking off excess material. I did end up hand filing even more off the "horn" of the frame to fit the new safety. The radius of the frame is important to note when buying a after-market beaver-tail. Know which one you need, or have a gunsmith install it for you. I had to bob the hammer spur a bit, so that it would clear the new safety. The gun would not lock into the cocked position, as the hammer spur would push down on the grip safety. I plan on installing a skeleton-ized hammer in the future, so this was not a problem for me. The flow of the fit from the frame, just below the slide, to the new safety isn't the best. It looks to me like someone just threw an after-market piece on the gun. Im a bit OCD when it comes to aesthetics on my guns. They need to LOOK good as well a fire well. >:-)I'll get my files out again soon and smooth the lines a bit... I'm going to repeat myself here and say I am not a gunsmith. This was a challenge for me. I'm pleased with the outcome. Everything is functioning properly after I put the gun back together. I had to call a buddy to get some help re-installing the sear and disconnect. There's a new piece in there I hadn't taken out before that acts to keep the gun from discharging if dropped. But that's not anything to do with the beaver-tail. Anyway, this beaver tail MAY just drop in as a replacement on YOUR gun, depending on make and model, but everything I have seen on YouTube, etc., says to plan on at least some minor custom fitting. Good luck! ... show more
