Wilson Combat V-Grip Mainspring Housing for Government Frame, Stainless

The Wilson Combat V-Grip Mainspring Housing in stainless steel (Wilson Combat part no. 92SV) is sized for the full-size Government 1911 frame and cut with Wilson’s V-Grip checkered pattern for added purchase at the base of the grip. Wilson Combat is one of the most respected names in match-grade 1911 pistolsmithing, and the mainspring housing forms the lower rear of the grip frame, so its texture directly affects control under recoil. The V-Grip pattern gives more bite than a smooth or arched factory housing without the aggressiveness of full checkering.

Key Specifications

• Sized for the Government frame, the full-size 5-inch-barrel 1911 platform.
• Cut with Wilson Combat’s V-Grip checkered pattern for added purchase at the base of the grip.
• Machined from stainless steel, resisting corrosion better than a blued finish.
• As the mainspring housing, it forms the lower rear of the grip frame and directly affects control under recoil.
• Like the Flat-profile housing, it replaces the entire lower backstrap and installs as a standard drop-in swap.
