EGW 1911 Government Sear

This Sear from EGW is a direct-fit fire control part for the full-size, 5-inch-barrel 1911 Government frame. The sear is the small part that holds the hammer cocked under spring tension until the trigger releases it, letting the hammer fall to fire one round per trigger pull. This is a standard semi-automatic fire control part — it does not add, enable, or convert a pistol to fully automatic fire.
