HD Higher Mag Catch Machined from Barstock Checkered Blue Reviews

4.9 Rating 22 Reviews
Read EGW Guns Reviews

The shelf on our EGW Higher Mag Catch is .020 higher, to hold the magazine higher in the frame. The button is extended .050" longer than the original 1911A1 factory button to ensure fast positive magazine release on the 1st try. Guns that have issues with nose dives will benefit from the higher mag placement (provided there is a small gap between the magazine and the frame in the front). The result is better feeding with 8 round 45 mags and hollow points. The higher mag catch is checkered for better grip. This part is NOT MIM or CAST. Our mag catches are NOT tapped for buttons. The button on our mag catch is standard GI spec.Mag Catch Spring and Mag Catch Lock are sold separately.

Solved my nosedive ftf issue. Left 4 stars only because I haven't taken it to the range yet.

Nice piece, well made, will see if it helps feeding issues with my 1911.if not it won’t be the mag release fault.

This specific mag catch is what you want to stop ftf, and stove pipes in your 1911 guns.

EGW shipped the item quickly. It was as described and VERY easy to install. Stock catch had 5 nose dives in over 140 rounds. Only had 1 nose dive in 110 rounds with this mag catch. The height of the catch does not interfere with shooting and easier for me to drop the magazine.

EGW parts are of high quality. Just finished a1911 in 38 special. Needed that higher mag catch to bring the magazine up a little for perfect feeding of those 38 wadcutters. Highly recommend EGW parts.
