Hey Randy! These look pretty nice, but are they made of metal or are they composite? I am not familiar with these.

 

[PinkhamR]

Hi Spray, they are a composite .....

 

[tommyboy]

they feel great when shooting!

 

[PinkhamR]

They sure do .....

Pinkhamr - do you think they'd fit a GSG 1911? I need to get rid of the hump on that thing.....

 

[PinkhamR]

I just took my GSG apart and the MSH incorporates the magazine disconnect. The Pachmayr will not work in this pistol. I also suggest that a novice not remove this as it is a real PITA to reinstall the GSG MSH.

Pinkhamr, there is still hope!! Cruising over on RFC there was a note about removing the mag safety, which many folks like to do. Here is the link to that thread - you'll find the post. From there, your MSH might work!!

Thanx for the Link and that is what I did ....


BBossman1, Info sent. Thanx!

So even with the mag safety removed, the Pachmayr did not work?

 

[PinkhamR]

It was too tight .... It might be possible to trim it to fit but I can't guarantee it to.

 

[olyshoots]

Thanks. That's the risk of buying one without being sure - you end up "fitting it". Thanks for your help and trying!!

 

[PinkhamR]

Thanx to you too .... we both learned something.

So I couldn't stand the thought of what I consider bad pull and that mag safety on this GSG. So I detail stripped it tonight, and "stoned" every moving surface I could but of course stayed clear of the sear edge. All back together now (you're right that MSH is a PITA) and we shall see how the trigger pull and creep works out. The trigger does not have the tabs of a normal 1911 but the sear spring is the same. I'll keep working on it - I'll let you know. My goal is a pull of 3.5 to 4 like my 1911 45's. If I need to do a new trigger, that won't be the worst thing. I'll need to verify interchangeability of parts of course. Also took out the mag safety part and spring, they have no other use so that was easy.

 

[PinkhamR]

Thanx for the update .... I really appreciate it ....
