Trigger Kits 1911 / 2011

Trigger kits for 1911 and 2011 pistols are pre-selected, often pre-matched sets of critical fire control components designed for a superior trigger pull. They offer a convenient way to upgrade your pistol's trigger system, providing a significant leap in performance for competitive shooters. These kits deliver a crisper break, faster reset, and consistent feel crucial for winning in USPSA, IDPA, and IPSC.

Why Choose a Pre-Matched Trigger Kit?

Opting for a trigger kit offers distinct advantages for competition:

  • Optimized Compatibility: Components (hammer, sear, disconnector, often sear spring) are manufactured to ensure optimal engagement, reducing fitting issues.

  • Enhanced Performance: Kits provide a strong foundation for an excellent trigger, often surpassing factory components.

  • Reduced Gunsmithing: While professional fitting is recommended, kits may require less work than mixing individual parts.

  • Improved Consistency & Reliability: Engineered kits minimize tolerance stacking, promoting consistent function.

  • Cost-Effectiveness: Often more economical than buying high-quality components individually.

What's Typically Included?

A comprehensive kit commonly includes a hammer (often lightweight/skeletonized), pre-ground sear, smooth disconnector, and a matched sear spring. Some may include a reduced-power mainspring.

Not all trigger kits are "drop-in"; most high-performance kits benefit immensely from professional gunsmith fitting for optimal safety, reliability, and feel. You'll notice a significantly lighter pull, crisper break, and more positive reset, enhancing speed and accuracy. Improper installation can make a pistol unsafe, emphasizing the need for expert fitting. Upgrading with trigger kits is a standard, accepted modification in virtually all competition divisions.
