Mfr Part: 816F

800732816005 Classic and contemporary looking mainspring housings combine form and function, so there is no compromise in grip control even though they look great. Flat shaped housings are available with popular 25 lpi checkering preferred by many shooters, as well the latest Snakeskin, Chainlink, and Chainlink II patterns that provide a secure gripping surf ace without the “sharpness” of machine cut checkering. Because they won’t abrade your hand or clothing, they make the perfect addition to competition, carry, and tactical guns. Some Chainlink models are also available with integral lanyard loop for attaching a weapon retention device. Traditional, Arched housing rides high in the heel of the hand to keep it close to the bore for minimal muzzle rise and excellent recoil control, and is available with a Grooved surface to provide a firm grip with little drag on clothing. Blank models are completely smooth to allow custom checkering or engraving, and are available in flat shapes. Also available for the Officer’s model in both blued and stainless steel with 25lpi checkering.

Brownells USA Ed Brown SS Arched mainspring housing 23/06/2018

I recently purchased three of the SS arched Ed Brown housings for my SA 1911-A1 in 9mm and 45 ACP plus my older Ruger 1911 45 ACP. The housings fit perfectly on all three pistols and eliminated the sharp bottom on the frame that always dug into the palm of my hand. I used the Brownells spring kit and the whole assy. works beautifully in all three pistols. Straight forward installation procedure with minimal tools required. A solid bench vice makes it much easier to place the spring kit inside the mainspring housing. I highly recommend both the Ed Brown arched mainspring housing and the Brownells spring kit. Great products and at a good price. Especially when you get to use a discount code and free S/H. Thanks Brownells.

Brownells USA Ed Brown Officer's Main Spring Housing 06/03/2018

Quality built product. No fitting required on my Colt Defender .45 ACP. Easy to install (you have to use the spring assembly from your existing main spring housing). Grip and feel is now 100% better then with the (junk plastic) factory main spring housing, and it also looks way better, too. No complaints at all. As usual, fast shipping from Brownell's. Thanks!
