1911 struts

[mofosheee]

I have questions about the 1911 parts pictured.

hammer strut pictured right with the small radius;  I've been trying to find details as to what 1911 the "more bowed" hammer strut is used in.  Scarce info online.  Anybody familiar with this?

I beleive the smaller more pronounce struts are used in smaller gripped guns like commander frames and the springfield EMP pistols.

Wouldn't work in my commander or officer.  Scrubs the spring.

Thanks for the response!

There isn't a difference between Gov't, Commander, Officer's, or EMP hammer struts.

 

There are some manufacturers who produce them out-of-spec; some intentional and some accidental.  

 

I have seen some with such a small curvature that you could feel the hammer drop through the grip safety and others so curvy that I am shocked that the strut didn't forcibly reset the Trigger during cycling.

Thank you Braxton
