Enhance your 1911 with the Harrison Design Extreme Service Thumb Safety!
The Extreme Service thumb safety is the culmination of years of meticulous design and testing, aimed at creating a thumb safety that is not only ergonomically comfortable but also rugged in construction. It incorporates unique features that address many common issues found in existing designs.
Key Features:
- Ergonomic Design: The thumb shelf features an arced shape sculpted to align perfectly with the "plate" portion of the safety, enhancing comfort during extended firing sessions.
- Improved Grip: The positioning of the thumb shelf ensures deeper, more solid contact with the grip safety, reducing the likelihood of failures to depress the grip safety.
- Thicker Plate: Constructed thicker than most competitors, the plate configuration allows the safety plunger to bear fully on the front, preventing side thrust loading that could loosen the plunger tube.
- Positive Engagement: An ample detent pocket and radius provide a satisfying "click" when engaging or disengaging the safety.
- Durable Pivot Shaft: The pivot shaft connects to the plate with a generous radius, crucial for preventing stress breakage at the plate/shaft joint.
- Adjustable Swing: The blocking lug features an extra fitting pad, allowing gunsmiths to regulate the thumb safety's swing, ensuring it doesn’t overhang the frame edge.
- Beveled Edges: The rear edge of the plate is beveled and blended with the frame’s back edge, a feature that sets it apart from other brands.
This thumb safety not only looks great but also complements the Harrison Design Extreme Service Slide Stop. On models HD453 and HD454, the narrowed thumb shelf is similarly sculpted for enhanced comfort.
Specifications:
- CNC machined from bar stock alloy carbon steel
