EGW 1911 Mainspring Housing – Serrated, Arched, Blue

Upgrade your 1911 with the EGW Serrated Arched Mainspring Housing, designed to improve grip, balance, and overall control. With precision-cut serrations, this housing positions weight effectively while giving your hand excellent traction. As a result, you gain better recoil control and enhanced confidence during rapid fire or reloads.

Precision Serrations for Reliable Control

The serrations on this mainspring housing provide consistent contact exactly where your hand meets the frame. Consequently, your grip stays secure throughout each shot, helping you maintain both accuracy and comfort. Furthermore, the design feels natural in the hand, reducing fatigue during extended shooting sessions.

Premium Arched Carbon Steel Construction

EGW fully machines this mainspring housing from solid carbon steel bar stock. Therefore, it delivers superior strength, long-term durability, and resistance to wear, bending, or cracking compared with plastic or cast alternatives. Additionally, the blued finish provides corrosion protection while maintaining a classic, professional look that complements any 1911 build.

Classic Arched Design for Better Balance

The arched profile naturally fills the palm, improving ergonomics and balance. As a result, your pistol tracks straighter during recoil, making follow-up shots faster and more precise. Moreover, this design enhances overall handling while keeping the iconic 1911 silhouette intact.

Ideal Replacement for Plastic Housings

Many factory 1911s come with lightweight polymer mainspring housings. By upgrading to this steel version, you add rearward weight, which improves overall balance and feels more solid in the hand. In addition, it provides a reliable replacement for worn or damaged plastic housings, giving your firearm a premium, long-lasting upgrade.

Installation Notes

Pins and springs do not come with this housing. However, you can reuse the components from your original mainspring housing, or alternatively, purchase a complete replacement kit from EGW. Installation is straightforward for anyone familiar with standard 1911 maintenance, making upgrades fast and efficient.
