You might look at Cylinder and Slide parts I hear nothing but good things about them.

EGW, Cylinder and Slide, Wilson, Ed Brown... There are lots of good 1911 parts out there. I can't look at Brownell's site right now (site is blocked at my job), but if I recall correctly (and that's a big "if"), I think they sell some entire ignition parts packages from some of the better manufacturers in the biz. Try to get good tool steel parts so they can be stoned a little if you decide to get a trigger job done later.

Since the CBOB uses many Ed Brown components, it would be logical to purchase their products for replacement. A good idea to get some other items (firing pin, recoil spring, etc) in the same shipment as you never know and I'd rather have the backups sitting in a drawer then in someone's storehouse.

Thanks for the advice. I noticed that price difference between Ed Brown and Brownell's for the same product is just pennies different. Go with the man.

I would suggest the Cylinder&Slide MARSOC kit. Gives a nice,crisp 4lb. pull drop-in. Very high quality parts.

I knew I should have come here first before going to Ed Brown. Ah well, even found a stainless hammer I didn't have on the CBOB. Time of my order was 04:12, your post 04:18.

Just wanted to mention that you may want to check the adjustment of the over travel screw in the trigger if you have not already, it's a common cause of hammer follow.
