Extreme Engineering – 1911 Hammer – Speed Demon II

The Extreme Engineering Speed Demon II 1911 Hammer delivers fast lock time and crisp trigger pulls. It focuses on speed, strength, and long service life. As a result, it works equally well in competition and duty pistols.

First, Extreme Engineering machines this hammer from solid tool steel bar stock. They avoid MIM and cast parts entirely. Because of this choice, the hammer offers superior strength and consistent performance.

Next, Extreme Engineering heat treats the hammer to Rc 53–55. This hardness resists wear and helps the hammer hold its shape. Over time, this means longer service life and steady trigger feel.

Then, they carefully lighten the hammer to reduce mass. Less mass allows the hammer to move faster. Faster movement shortens lock time and improves shot consistency. At the same time, the design keeps strength where it matters most.

In addition, the hammer features a chamfered profile. These smooth edges reduce stress and help prevent cracking. They also allow smoother cycling during operation. Likewise, the geometry supports clean and repeatable sear engagement.

Furthermore, Extreme Engineering precisely machines the .1565″ pivot pin hole. This precision improves alignment in the frame. It also reduces uneven wear during extended use. Because tolerances stay tight, the hammer fits and functions as intended.

Just as important, Extreme Engineering backs the Speed Demon II with a lifetime guarantee against breakage when left unmodified. This guarantee reflects confidence in both materials and machining.

Finally, Extreme Engineering makes this hammer in the USA. It is an excellent choice for custom builds, competition pistols, or performance upgrades. For best results, a qualified gunsmith should perform final fitting.
