The Wilson Combat Series 70 firing pin stop is a small but critical component that makes a real difference in how your 1911 runs. Built from Bullet Proof bar stock steel, this part is fully machined—not stamped—and radiused at the corners to handle whatever you throw at it. Unlike cheap factory stops, the Wilson Combat version is made to much tighter tolerances, which means it does a better job of keeping your extractor from rotating and causing ejection problems.
The firing pin stop sits at the rear of your slide and does two jobs at once. First, it keeps the firing pin seated and prevents it from moving forward on its own, which is critical for safe operation. Second, it works with your extractor to ensure spent casings eject cleanly and reliably. A loose or poorly fitted stop lets the extractor shift position, which leads to weak ejection, stovepipes, and other malfunctions. This Wilson part solves that problem by being slightly oversized and requiring a fitted installation for a snug, consistent fit.
This stop is designed specifically for Series 70 pistols without a firing pin safety lever. It will fit Wilson Combat, USGI, Colt, Springfield, and Kimber 1911s that use the Series 70 configuration. Because it's oversized for a quality fit, minor fitting is typically needed to your specific pistol—this isn't a true drop-in part. The bottom is left square so you can customize the recoil feel by adding a bevel if needed: a light bevel for heavier loads or a more aggressive bevel for lighter ones. If you're not comfortable fitting internal parts yourself, a qualified gunsmith can have this installed in about 15 minutes.
No, this is designed specifically for Series 70 pistols and will not fit Series 80 models which have a different firing pin safety system. Series 80 stops can work in Series 70 guns, but not the reverse. Double-check your pistol's configuration before ordering.
This part requires minor fitting for the best results. It's oversized by design to ensure a tight, snug fit that prevents your extractor from rotating—which is the whole point. Most people take it to a gunsmith for fitting, but if you're experienced with 1911 work, you can fit it with a file and some patience.
Wilson's version is fully machined from bar stock steel instead of being stamped, making it significantly stronger and more durable. It's also made to tighter tolerances and is slightly wider than GI standard, which gives your extractor better support and prevents it from clocking during firing. The radiused corners reduce stress points and prolong component life.
Yes, the square bottom design lets you customize recoil feel through beveling. Add a light bevel on the face for heavier loads or a more aggressive bevel for lighter ones. This allows you to fine-tune your pistol's cycling without changing springs. A gunsmith can help determine the right bevel for your load.
