Description: PLEASE read bottom RED notes BEFORE bidding! .065" EXTRA THICK "TJ's Original COLT 1911 SERIES '80 TO '70 CONVERSION SHIMS ©" (Frame Slot Fillers™) These copy-written © parts were invented & designed by "TJ" of "TJ's Custom Gunworks" in 1985 and mass produced since 1987; and have been helping shooters improve their 1911 trigger mechanisms with crisper and smoother trigger pulls for decades! EBAY NOTICE: "TJ's Original COLT 1911 SERIES '80 TO '70 CONVERSION SHIMS ©" name and design is legally owned by "TJ's Custom Gunworks" aka ebay ID "old_honorable_ways". This is the part you would need if you wanted to remove the "firing pin block" (extra safety device on Colt Series '80 & '90 & 1991A1) After you remove the plunger & spring from your slide, and remove the 2 actuating levers from your 1911 frame, you install this "shim" (Frame Slot Filler) (spacer plate) into the gap that the 2 removed actuating levers created; if you do not fill that gap, your sear will walk into that gap and lock your entire trigger mechanism. *I have created a basic instructional web page to help with installation of these conversion shims. Please message me through ebay AFTER your purchase, and I'll message you a link. These parts fit 99.99% of all Colt 1911 Series '80 & '90 & 1991A1, as well as most Para Ordnance / ParaOrd, they will also fit most Sig Sauer 1911's, Dan Wesson 1911's, and most other 1911's that have incorporated the firing pin block mechanism similar to Colt. The original parts (Colt) have a thickness of .057", and most other 1911's follow that size. I also offer shims in .065" .060", .057", and .030". This auction is for one 065" EXTRA THICK frame filler shim. PLEASE NOTE that if this shim is too thick for your gun, and it binds your sear, the result may cause your trigger mechanism to MALFUNCTION, it can cause hang-firing, or even an inability to fire the weapon. This shim thickness is intended only for professional gunsmith installation. I make NO WARRANTY OR CLAIM as to fit, function, or usability These are made & designed to be fit by QUALIFIED GUNSMITHS ONLY ! (Despite the fact that these are drop-in parts) Quantity discounts are available if you buy over 10 shims at the same time. I not only want a sale, but I want 100% 5 STAR feedback, so PLEASE look at the photos, read my descriptions, and bid accordingly so you will be happy with your purchase. If you have any questions, please email me BEFORE you bid, not after. Bid to WIN but bid to BUY ! Payment MUST be made within 3 days of auction end. S/H = $4.95 INSURED (Continental USA) (up to 5 shims for the same fee ($4.95)) Priority mail shipping is available for $9.95 (1 - 50 shims). Outside of Continental USA - (Shipped as "metal spacers" because these are NOT gun parts) (INTERNATIONAL BUYERS DO NOT BUY FROM THIS PAGE! Email me for directions.) Please note the REASON for my high shipping charge for a tiny little part here.... I used to charge a nominal shipping fee and sending them in a standard envelope without tracking, as a result I got burned SEVERAL times by bidders claiming they never received the item. So now I charge more and ship with tracking so we all know the part WAS delivered. I'm sorry, but the few bad apples spoil it for everyone else. I usually ship within 3 business days of your purchase, but due to poor USPS service I have seen them take OVER 2 WEEKS to deliver items; this is out of my control!!! If the USPS tracking doesn't show any scans for over a week and looks BLANK, that does NOT mean that I did not ship your item!!!!!! It only means that they did not scan it in at the post office when shipped; this is very common here. PLEASE DO NOT BLAME ME FOR USPS NOT DOING THEIR JOB! I promise I'll do my part and get it to the post office, after that it is out of my hands. (if you have still not received your item after 15 business days, DO contact me for a replacement) Thank You For Bidding On My Item ! In case anyone gripes about my 2022 shipping fee, here it is broken down... Shipping fee charged $4.75 Ebay takes -66¢ in fees on this shipping charge. ---------------------- SUBTOTAL $4.09 net 95% of all shim orders cost me $4.26 for USPS 1st class mail ---------------------- NET TOTAL on shipping is a NEGATIVE -17¢ on every shim I ship Plus I pay for envelopes, insert cards, tape, ink, and labels, so that is at least another -50¢ per order. I am actually LOSING money on every shipment as far as packing & postage.
