Trimmed Firing Pin Stop

I want to replace the firing pin stop in my Series II Kimber with a similar unit made of stainless. It must be a "trimmed" unit to fit under the Bomar-style target rear sight.

Does anyone have a lead on who makes or sells such a critter?

FP stop

Get an Ed Brown and file or stone the top edge until it fits. Easy does it!

Shortened FP stops are available from STI and EGW. But not in stainless.
You can get stainless FP stops from Brown, Wilson, Caspian & Briley, but they'll all have to be shortened. Good Luck!

I had looked at my Brownell's catalog and had come to the conclusion that I was going to have to cut one down. There's blued ones available and stainless but no trimmed stainless units to be had.

Thanks for the input.
