TMC Heavy Duty Firing Pin Stop – .45 ACP (Standard Sights) – Blued

Upgrade your 1911 with the TMC Heavy Duty Firing Pin Stop for .45 ACP pistols with standard-height sights. This small component delivers a major improvement in function. More importantly, it helps your pistol run smoother and extract more reliably.

First, Extreme Engineering machines each firing pin stop from hardened Carbon steel with a durable Black Oxide finish. This material resists wear and deformation. Even under repeated recoil, it holds its shape. Because of this strength, the firing pin stop keeps the extractor in proper alignment through every cycle.

Next, the precise dimensions create a tight and secure fit in the slide. This snug fit limits unwanted extractor movement. As a result, extractor clocking decreases. Consequently, extraction becomes more consistent and predictable with every shot.

In contrast, many factory firing pin stops use softer steel. Over time, those parts peen and lose shape. When that happens, extractor control suffers. However, this heavy-duty design solves that problem by adding strength exactly where it matters most.

Additionally, this firing pin stop improves overall slide control. By stabilizing the extractor, it helps the slide cycle smoothly. Therefore, your pistol feels more controlled and reliable, especially during fast strings of fire.

Although minor fitting may be required, the effort pays off. A proper fit enhances performance and extends service life. Because of this, builders and gunsmiths often choose this part for duty pistols, competition guns, and custom 1911 builds.

Furthermore, this version fits .45 ACP 1911 pistols with Standard Style Sights.
