    I reach my finger up and then pull the hammer down a microscopic amount, and then it locks.
    Shorten the sear nose a tiny bit until it grabs.

      That's what I'm thinking too, searched some other forums.

      The Wilson value line sear is actually a few thousands too long. I dropped my original RIA sear back in and it now works perfectly with the Wilson value line hammer (which fits just about all beavertails without any fitting). So much for 'drop in' parts.

      (Yes, I know drop-in is a marketing misnomer for just about any 1911 part).

      I think I'll pick up a sear jig eventually and fix up that wilson sear. Right now RIA parts will do.

        Thanks guys, lol.

        skyhanger, yeah drop in and 1911 should never be in the same sentence.

        Every sarco parts kit I have touched though I have had to replace a few parts. (I know it was Wilson but I am just saying)

        Glad you got it worked out. Fun and frustrating huh.
