Abstract: The application pertains to 1911 style firearms. The firearms can have a relief and/or an ambidextrous slide stop. The firearm frame can have a relief to capture debris. The relief can sit below where the barrel sits once assembled with the frame. The relief can be shaped such that debris that would typically be held in the barrel void would instead fall into the relief. The firearm can have an ambidextrous slide stop. The slide stop can incorporate a male-female interlocking mechanism allowing for secure and removable coupling.

Abstract: The application pertains to 1911 style firearms. In some embodiments, the firearm frame comprises a relief to capture debris. In some embodiments, the firearm has an ambidextrous slide stop.

Abstract: A trigger shoe assembly and magazine catch retainer plate. The trigger shoe assembly has a separate trigger shoe and trigger bow that can be individually attached to a firearm frame. The magazine catch and corresponding retainer plate ensure that the magazine well of the firearm can fit a double stack magazine.

Abstract: The present application discloses an improved firearm design that features an ambidextrous slide stop, allowing for enhanced accessibility and functionality for both left-handed and right-handed shooters. This design provides advantages over the traditional 1911 pistol, addressing challenges faced by left-handed shooters and streamlining reloads and malfunction clearance. The application incorporates a male-female interlocking mechanism for the slide stop portions, allowing for secure and removable coupling. Additionally, a thumb pad is included for easy engagement of the slide lock. Overall, this innovation offers improved ergonomics and versatility for shooters of different handedness.
