The Art and Science of Keeping Your 1911 Running

[TWR]

A series 70 WC bulletproof extractor fit my Stainless Target just dandy. Just ticked by 2,000 rounds with zero issues since.

I'm curious, is yours a Stainless Target or Stainless Target II?

This is the second set I have bought. They are pretty grippy and easy on the skin for carry. I like the big scoop and they are about in between full-size g10 and thin g10 grips for thickness. Easy to modify if you need to and you can stipple them if you need more traction. Definitely a cheap worthy upgrade.

I think I have 2 sets in my parts box. One standard and one set stippled. They are so cheap you can experiment with your pattern and not feel bad.

Mine is a stainless II. It has the Swarz type firing pin block.

Thread awaken!!!

I'm currently working my way through Hilton Yams newest video, Duty Tune the 1911. I am not affiliated with Hilton, or Panteao Productions in any way, and I haven't even finished watching all of it and I'm already recommending it to anyone who will listen. If you do your own work (as many of us seem to), or do work for others, you will find this video invaluable.

And I think Hilton has them for sale directly on his site. I wish there were a download option. I'm about out of the disk format anymore.

Maybe through Panteao? The appear to offer streaming video, I don't know if you can download from the site though.

I took his armorers class in 2012.

First rate class, very good instruction, great hands on and he put a file to my extractor!!!!

If you use Hilton’s 10-8 holiday code BFS19 - you can get a discount on the video from Yam when you order from the 10-8 website.

Had thought of that. My gut reaction is to go straight to Hilton's pockets when I can.
