Upgrade your 1911 with the precision of EGW's HD Ambidextrous Thumb Safeties.
EGW is excited to be one of the few manufacturers offering a thumb safety machined from solid steel. Recognising the need for a cleaner, more robust design, EGW has developed this product in response to the consistent failures of inferior cast and MIM thumb safeties currently available on the market.
Key Features:
- Precision Machining: The only way to maintain the safeties as straight as possible is through heat treating the steel and machining it in a hardened condition.
- Serrated Design: The thumb safety is serrated for improved gripping capability.
- Solid Construction: Both paddles are machined from solid blocks of heat-treated steel.
- Swiss Screw Machines: EGW manufactures the hammer pins, shortened flat-headed .110 sear pin, and our Patent Pending sleeve using advanced machinery.
- Durability: All parts are heat treated to ensure longevity and reliability.
- Flat Ambi Joint: The ambi joint is machined flat and not tapered, preventing it from loosening over time.
- Secure Fit: The sleeve joins each side inside the frame tangs, enhancing stability.
- Independent Operation: The grip safety rides on the round sleeve and is not influenced when operating the safety.
- Enhanced Functionality: The sleeve prevents the safety from expanding where the sides join, making each side longer for secure operation and less flex.
- T-slot Design: The t-slot on the right-hand side prevents the safety from walking out, eliminating the need to relieve your right-hand grips.
This thumb safety requires fitting for proper function in your 1911 and is not a drop-in part. The package includes:
- Left side safety
- Right side safety
- .797" hammer pin
- .807" hammer pin
- Sear pin
- Safety sleeve
Upgrade your firearm with EGW's HD Ambidextrous Thumb Safety for unparalleled performance and reliability.
