Brownells 1911 Allen Head Grip Screws Blued 48 Pack
If you've ever winced watching a screwdriver slip off a 1911 grip screw and leave a fresh gouge across your frame, you know the frustration of working with subpar fasteners on a precision pistol. The Brownells 1911 Allen Head Grip Screws offer a better solution: machined and hardened socket-head screws engineered to eliminate that slip-and-scratch problem. The recessed hex socket accepts an Allen wrench that seats firmly and transfers torque without the cam-out risk that rounds off traditional slotted or Phillips heads. Whether you're assembling a competition build, performing routine maintenance, or restoring a prized 1911, these screws help keep your finish pristine while you work.
This 48-pack gives you plenty of spares on hand—useful if you swap grips between frames, work on multiple guns, or simply want backups for the inevitable lost fastener. Blued finish matches traditional 1911 aesthetics and pairs well with most frame finishes. The hardened construction resists deformation under normal use and torquing, so you're not replacing screws every time you detail-strip your gun.
Brownells' reputation in the 1911 parts space rests on understanding what builders and shooters actually need: quality components that work reliably and won't sabotage the fit and finish of a carefully maintained firearm. These grip screws reflect that focus on practical excellence over gimmicks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these screws compatible with all 1911 models?
These are designed for 1911 grip screw applications across standard 1911 platforms. If you're working with a non-standard or custom frame, verify that grip screw dimensions match before ordering.
What size Allen wrench do these screws use?
The product record does not specify the hex socket size. Contact Brownells or check the packaging upon receipt to confirm the wrench size needed.
Can I use these on a gun I'm actively carrying?
Yes. The hardened construction and secure socket design make them suitable for carry guns, as long as you use the correct torque and tool to avoid over-tightening or stripping the grip screw holes.
Why would I buy a 48-pack instead of a smaller quantity?
A 48-pack ensures you have backups on hand for multiple 1911s, future maintenance, or replacement of damaged screws—and it's economical if you work on guns regularly or build custom pistols.
