Ed Brown 1911 Machined Cc Beavertail Grip Safety, Blue 70 Series$79.95
Availability: In Stock
The Ed Brown 1911 Machined Concealed Carry Beavertail Grip Safety in stainless steel is built for shooters who want hand protection without sacrificing carry comfort. This Series 70 grip safety combines the practical benefits of a full beavertail—shielding your hand web from hammer bite—with a reduced profile that keeps your gun compact and concealable. Ed Brown achieved this by trimming approximately 0.10" from the tail protrusion and machining the entire unit to minimum dimensions, so you're not forced into buying a specialty concealment hammer. It works with standard Commander-style hammers, keeping your build straightforward and cost-effective.
Machined from high-grade steel barstock and finished in natural matte silver/gray stainless, this grip safety is built to last through years of carry and range use. The stainless construction resists corrosion better than blued carbon steel, making it a solid choice for hunters, sport shooters, and defensive carry enthusiasts who want durability without fussy maintenance. Whether you're running a Series 70 1911 for competition, hunting, or everyday carry, this beavertail safety delivers the protection and ergonomics that make a difference in real-world shooting.
Installation requires gunsmith fitting—this is a precision component that needs proper installation to function correctly and safely. If you're having work done or doing it yourself, take your time and follow proper 1911 armorer procedures. Many shooters pair this safety with Ed Brown's Beavertail Installation Jig (sold separately) to ensure a clean, professional fit.
