This quick tip demonstrates the Harrison Design 1911 Frame Fixture, designed by Ted Yost. The fixture uses a sine bar technique to expand and securely hold a 1911 frame within the magazine well without tools. It features relief cuts for the magazine catch and ejector, making it suitable for both assembled and stripped frames. The tool allows for easy manipulation of the frame for gunsmithing tasks like sanding or filing, and releases with a simple tap.
