EGW Oversized 1911 Firing Pin .075" | Springfield
Quick Check: This stainless steel 1911 firing pin has a .075" tip diameter and an overall length of 2.260".
Commonly used in many Springfield Armory 1911 pistols. Measure before ordering.
The EGW .075" Oversized 1911 Firing Pin is precision-machined from solid stainless steel for slides requiring a .075" firing pin tip. This diameter is commonly associated with many Springfield Armory 1911 pistols and compatible custom slides.
This firing pin is manufactured to a controlled overall length of 2.260" and is not extra long. Proper firing pin fit can help reduce excess clearance around the tip while allowing the firing pin to move freely through the slide.

Why Firing Pin Diameter Matters
The firing pin must provide sufficient clearance to move freely without leaving unnecessary space around the firing pin tip. Excess clearance may allow primer material to flow around the firing pin under pressure.
As the pistol cycles, flowed primer material can shear and enter the firing pin channel. Correct selection and professional fitting help reduce this possibility while supporting consistent firing pin movement.
