Nowlin Stainless Steel Pin Set, Government

The Nowlin Stainless Steel Pin Set for Government-frame 1911 pistols (Nowlin part no. 228S) bundles the small precision pins the fire control and slide-stop assembly need for a full rebuild, machined from stainless steel rather than the carbon steel used in most factory pins. Stainless pins resist corrosion and surface wear better than blued carbon steel over the life of the pistol, which matters most in the small, tight-tolerance bores these pins ride in. Nowlin manufactures its own precision 1911 parts, machining this set to tighter tolerances than the cast or stamped pins found in many factory guns, so they seat with less play in the frame and slide. This set is built specifically for the full-size Government frame.
