The JEM Beavertail Grip Safety from Evolution Gun Works is built from a solid piece of barstock rather than cast, giving it the strength and precision needed for a proper fit on your 1911 frame. Every piece ships slightly oversized in critical areas, which means you get to fit it for a perfect custom finish instead of dealing with gaps and sloppy tolerances that come with lesser alternatives.
This safety delivers a high grip position on the gun, which pulls your hand up and back for better control and a more natural shooting angle. The wider beavertail design allows the part to be fit into the frame rather than the other way around, giving gunsmiths and builders way more room to work with for a tight, professional result. The .250-inch radius is cut specifically for high-cut frame tangs, so it pairs naturally with JEM frames and 2011 Hi-Cap STI platforms with minimal blending required.
The straight safety arm comes pre-notched and requires no forming, which means you won't need to remove the mainspring housing just to take the safety apart. The reamed pin hole measures .158 inch for improved fit and better ambi function. Extra material in all the critical areas adds real strength and lets you fit this to tight tolerances without worrying about breaking something. The lower grip surface sits below the trigger hole, keeping you from cutting into that area when fitting.
This safety is engineered specifically for frames with high-cut tangs. The bottom is longer and the angle fills the gap in your frame better than standard designs. The pad itself is fuller and blank, giving you room to customize the feel and shape to your hand. If you're working with a Springfield or Caspian frame instead of a JEM or STI platform, you'll need to weld the tangs to make this work.
The blued finish provides a clean, classic look and matches the mil-spec aesthetic. Installation requires fitting and should be done by a qualified gunsmith unless you have the experience and tools to do the job right. This is not a drop-in part, but the payoff is a grip safety that looks like it was born as part of your gun.
No, this is a full-fit safety that requires frame modification. It's designed to be fitted to JEM frames and 2011 Hi-Cap STI platforms with minimal blending, but it will need to be shaped to match your frame's tangs and gaps. This isn't a drop-in part, so you'll want a qualified gunsmith to do the installation properly.
The .250-inch radius is cut for frames that have been machined to a .250 radius on the tangs, which is common on Colt-style 1911s and JEM/STI high-cut frames. Other common options like the .220 radius work better on Springfield frames. The radius determines how precisely the safety fits into the frame cuts.
The JEM safety ships slightly oversized in critical areas so you have material to work with during fitting instead of having to make do with a part that's undersized. This lets you achieve a perfect, tight fit on your specific frame rather than accepting gaps or looseness that many drop-in safeties have.
It depends on the frame type and existing cuts. This safety is designed for high-cut frames, so it works best with JEM and STI platforms. Installing it on frames with Wilson-style compound radius cuts or other configurations will require additional work and may not give good results. A gunsmith can advise whether it's feasible for your specific frame.
