Great hex bushings. I have these on every of my 1911’s

Why doesn't every gunmaker use these as original parts—they should!

I recently purchased Challis bushings and O-rings for all my .45's. I could not be more pleased with the products. They have taken all the work and worry out of removing and replacing grips. I highly recommend them for anyone who works on their own pistols.

Worked perfectly. Challis should be your go to for grips, grip bushings, and O Rings for bushings and screws.

Relevant Data:

Pistol - Ed Brown Kobra Carry Lightweight

Springs - Factory mainspring (23 lbs); Nighthawk Custom "Everlast" Flat Wire Recoil System

Bushings Torqued To - 19 lbs

Screws Torqued To - 5 lbs

Both Types Of O-Rings (bushing and screw) Used

Ammo - 250 rds of 230gr FMJ (various makes)



I had previously told the Challis folks that live fire would be the true test, and indeed it was!



Burning my way through 250 rounds of hardball (slow and rapid fire), I had NOT ONE single grip screw work itself loose.



Thank You Challis Grips, for putting an end to one of the most annoying aspects of 'range day'.
