    Need new firing pin stop 1911

    So, as the title says I need a new firing pin stop for a Springfield TRP OP. I have a couple Wilson Bullet proof ones on order. But I don't have the files, and have never done this before. What will I need for files, and any suggestions on good videos or tutorials to do this? Thanks

    I found these videos on the internet:

    There are several other articles from various sources on the subject, but I didn't see anymore videos

    I am still new to 1911s, but both Wilson Bulletproof Firing Pin Stops I’ve purchased for my Springfield Garrison (one square, one round) dropped in with no fitting. Both fit snugly.

    I think Rob Schauland has a video, will see if I can find it.

    Those videos were really helpful! I ended up not needing them though.

    I got the firing pin stop on Friday, and it dropped right in. Well sort of. The first one didn’t, so I started filling it down. Then realized I still had the extractor in and it had twisted a little. I removed it and the other slid right in. Although it was .010 wider than the original.
