Wilson Combat Bullet Proof High-Ride Beavertail Grip Safety for 1911 Series 70/80
Wilson Combat
The Wilson Combat High-Ride Beavertail Grip Safety for 1911 Government Series 70/80 is a drop-in replacement designed to improve control and comfort on your Government-frame 1911. If you've felt hammer bite or discomfort from a stock grip safety, or simply want a more secure grip on your pistol, this stainless steel beavertail addresses both issues without permanent modifications to your gun. Swap it in, and if you ever want to return to factory specs, the original part reinstalls just as easily.
Built to accommodate both commander-style and bobbed spur hammers, this grip safety is engineered for the most common 1911 setups. Wilson Combat's high-ride design extends higher on the frame, letting your hand ride naturally higher as well—the result is less strain on your grip and a more confident hold on the gun. Stainless steel construction resists corrosion and wears well under regular use.
Like any quality 1911 part, minor fitting may be needed depending on your specific pistol. The trigger engagement area may require slight hand-finishing for a perfectly smooth action, but this is normal with premium aftermarket safeties and generally takes only a few minutes with basic files or sandpaper. Because fit can vary gun-to-gun, we recommend installation by someone experienced with 1911 tuning if you're not comfortable doing the work yourself.
