Super simple and easy to use (08/11/2009)

I don't know how this could be much better. It's cheap and with just a bit of file work you have a perfectly square fit.

Works Great! (25/07/2011)

Makes installing that beavertail easy as pie!

The only way to go for anyone looking to install an Ed Brown Bevertail.

Beavertail jig (24/08/2012)

Bought this from Ed Brown and used it to install a beavertail on a Colt. Since it was my first install I was more than a little apprehensive since it is possible to damage the frame. But I took it very slow and easy. It seems like it took forever but the Safety fits perfectly. Very simple and ends are hard enough that fies won't cut them so its well worth the investment. Gettin ready to tighten the slide-wish me luck!

Just the ticket for a successful install (01/12/2012)

A sharp flat file with slow even strokes provides for a very professional looking install. Absolutely the best way to install the Ed Brown grip safety. Some fine sandpaper and polishing gave way to a very professional looking install. The absolute best tool for the job.

MUST HAVE ITEM (14/02/2013)

This jig was just what the dr. ordered. My first time doing anything like this and the end result was outstanding. Looks like the gun came with this beavertail safety. Thanks Brownells for carrying this jig at an affordable price
