EGW HD 1911 Barrel Link (#0)

The key to a truly accurate 1911 is a perfect barrel lockup, and that starts with the EGW Heavy-Duty (HD) Barrel Link. Precision-machined from solid 4140 chromoly steel, our barrel links are the professional's choice for correctly fitting a barrel to the slide stop pin. This #0 link is a specialized, shorter link specifically for use in Accu-Rail guns where the rails have been moved down, requiring a different geometry for a tight, reliable, and accurate lockup.

The EGW Solution for Your Custom 1911

The secret to a "one-hole" accurate 1911 is a perfectly fit barrel. Here’s why our barrel link is the superior choice:

• ✔ Specialized for Accu-Rail Builds: The #0 link is the specific size required to achieve proper lockup timing on Accu-Rail guns where the slide sits lower on the frame.
• ✔ Machined from 4140 Chromoly Steel: We CNC-machine each link from heat-treated 4140 chromoly steel for exceptional strength and wear resistance, preventing the link hole from elongating over time.
• ✔ Unmatched Machining Process: Each link undergoes an intensive in-house process—spotting, drilling, reaming, chamfering, and engraving—on our CNC machines to guarantee precision and consistency.
• ✔ Proudly Made in the USA: Every component is manufactured in our Quakertown, PA facility, guaranteeing the highest level of quality control.
