Nowlin Speed Demon II Hammer, Stainless, Chamfered

The Nowlin Speed Demon II Hammer, Stainless, Chamfered (Nowlin part no. 201SD) is a lightweight competition hammer built to shorten lock time and smooth out the final feel of a match-tuned 1911 trigger. Nowlin machines the Speed Demon II from stainless steel and chamfers its edges, both to resist corrosion and to remove the sharp edges that can otherwise catch during hammer-to-sear engagement or bite the shooter’s hand. A lighter, faster-falling hammer paired with a properly tuned sear and spring set is one of the most direct ways to cut lock time on a competition 1911, helping the pistol feel more responsive under a fast trigger press. This hammer is designed to be fitted as part of a full action job rather than dropped in as a stand-alone part.

Key Specifications

• It is finished in stainless steel for corrosion resistance.
• The edges are chamfered to remove sharp corners and reduce hand bite.
• It is part of Nowlin’s Speed Demon II competition-focused line.
