Yet another oddity regarding the newer Gold Cups

I just discovered another non-GI part that is apparently unique to the current production Gold Cups.  It seems that the width of the trigger is not consistent with most other 1911's?  After fitting a Cylinder and Slide short trigger so I can see if this length is better for me, I noticed the gaping spaces on both sides between trigger and frame.
That was a thirty dollar lesson.  The one previous was concerning the non-standard front dovetail; that cost me fifteen dollars.
Does anyone want this trigger for say fifteen bucks shipped to your door?  It is C&S part number CS0194SR.  After fitting the height is now .903" just so you know what you're getting. Not likely but if you have a wide (apparently for Gold Cups only) and either short or medium to trade, all the better.

The old Gold Cups had wide triggers as well if memory serves...

All of my Gold Cups have wide triggers.

Tony for the win!

It looks like there is an option for someone looking to put a shorter trigger in; EGW makes a long wide trigger but it appears to have plenty of meat and is solid so I can mill a new radius in the front at whatever shortened length I want to try.  I should ask them at what point I am going to hit something.  I'm not sure how they're made.  There goes another thirty sheckles.

mid range guns (factory) as well

Greetings,

Videki used to make an Aluminum trigger for the Gold Cup.

I was able to shorten it to suit my wife's hand.

No longer made; but, eBay might be a source.

Cheers,

Dave

Froneck (on this forum) makes a new short wide trigger with his shoe attached permanently for the GC.
