Description:

Elevate Your 1911 with Novak's Enhanced Thumb Safeties

Novak takes the 1911 safety a step further with streamlined styling and several operating enhancements. The 1911 NXT Extended Thumb Safeties offer a blend of functionality and aesthetic appeal.

Key Features:

Redesigned Detent: Enables extremely positive engagement, holding the plunger tube against the frame to prevent it from working loose.
Ambidextrous Design: The right-hand paddle is keyed and pinned to the shaft, eliminating flex and the need for the grip to hold the right lever in place.
Streamlined Paddle: A much slimmer paddle that works seamlessly with any grip, including LaserGrips.
Comfort & Control: Completely “carry beveled” with all sharp edges removed for enhanced shooter comfort.

Specifications:

Available in carbon steel, blued, or stainless steel with a natural finish. Fitting is required for installation; gunsmith installation is recommended.

Upgrade your firearm with the Novak Ambidextrous NXT Safety and experience superior performance on the range.

Novak NXT Safety 31/03/2018

I installed this safety in a Springfield Mil-Spec that I am tinkering with. I bought it because its a Novak part and I've had good luck with Novak's stuff. I am impressed with the attention to detail. No rough edges or points, no tooling marks or seams and the finish is even and smooth. The thumb pad is very comfortable with a thumb over safety grip. And the best part is the detents at the "off" and "on" position are very positive. No extra movement at all. It "snicks" like an old Colt safety. Finding all these plusses together is often a hard thing to do. So far, the only drawback I can see is that I now have a bunch of 1911s that are in need of one of these.

Not recommended

uncomfortable for lefties 08/09/2016

If you are lefthanded and shoot with your thumb on the safety this is not the safety for you. It is very uncomfortable. My gunsmith fit it to my 1911 so I can not send it back.

Novak NXT ambi excellent 27/04/2015

Excellent product however the description works with laser grips is not 100% accurate. Some grips have the laser module reduced but I found it necessary to trim the right side lever to clear the laser on my older CT laser grips.

It does not say in the product description, but you will need a 1/16" roll pin starter and a 1/16" roll pin punch to secure the right side lever. Only one roll pin ships with the package 1/16x 0.270, not a size listed in the roll pin section of the catalog. Order some spare roll pins.

The ambi safety functions just fine as a single side and I suggest that you fit and used the safety for a while before pinning the final assembly. I could have saved a lot of money if I'd bought the Novak safety before a less expensive ambi safety.

This extended safety is a winner. 10/11/2012

This extended thumb safety fills the niche for tactical or competition shooting. It requires gunsmith fitting as the sear contact ledge is oversized to fit to your specific gun. The dimensions and specs are absolutely precise with the contact points and pin axis aligned perfectly. After fitting, there was no slack or bounce while gripping the pistol.

Some tips: You might need to lightly bevel the safety's lug corner radius at the channel - so it won't shave your frame cutout. You can blend the corners of the safety with your Dremel to match your frame and beavertail. The polished surfaces contrast nicely with the matte finish.

Ambidextrous safeties are okay for many shooters, but this single side safety fits my shooting grip with better ergonomics. It allows a lower bore axis and more solid shooting platform without that weak-side safety lever pressing into your metacarpo-phalangeal joint.

The precision of manufacture is impressive. This part is even better than the King's Safety of years past.

Bravo, Novak.
