HD Higher Shelf Mag Catch Checkered SS Extended Button Reviews

4.2 Rating 9 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 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. Warning: This product may be alloyed with trace amounts of lead and other elements which are known to the State of California to cause reproductive harm and cancer. To prevent exposure, do not alter the product by welding, grinding, etc. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry we couldn't quite match the OAL of the button to your preference. While we strive to offer a great fit, we understand that it’s not always perfect for every customer, and we truly appreciate you using our parts! Regarding the hardness of the mag catch, we've seen that repeated contact with the barrel can cause cracks. We're cautious about making the catch too hard, as we want to avoid that issue and ensure you have a reliable, long-lasting part. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts!

“Not a drop in part. 1911"s are made to spec, why not make a part that will drop in”

“Worked perfectly so far. It was a simple installation and it fit perfectly. I had issues with the first round out of the magazine intermittently not feeding properly and jamming. After 100 rounds so far I have not had the issue.”

“Quality component that does what it claims. I look forward to fewer issues with rounds loading in my 1911.”
