Concealed carry with a full-size 1911 is a balancing act between capacity, concealability, and a clean, snag-free profile. Small changes to magazine length and base plates can make a big difference in how the pistol prints and how comfortably it rides in a holster or appendix position.
ED BROWN 1911 GOVERNMENT is a magazine option designed specifically to address printing and fit for Ed Brown Bobtail 1911s and full-size 1911s intended for concealed carry. This magazine ships with the Ed Brown removable base pad installed; remove the base pad and the magazine fits flush with the frame to reduce printing and produce a tighter footprint for deep concealment. The installed base pad gives the option of added grip length when you need it for presentation or control.
Why this matters for concealed carry
For shooters who carry a Bobtail or a full-size 1911, a flush-fit magazine is one of the simplest upgrades to reduce appendage printing and improve concealment without changing your holster or clothing. ED BROWN 1911 GOVERNMENT delivers that flexibility: keep the base pad on for everyday range use or extended grip, and remove it for a cleaner carry profile when concealment is the priority. At $26.99, it’s an affordable, low-impact modification with immediate ergonomic benefits.
Shop this product and confirm fit with your Ed Brown 1911; compatibility is best with Bobtail cuts and standard full-size frames intended for concealed carry.
Features and practical considerations
Key features to note: the removable Ed Brown base pad, a design that allows a flush fit when removed, and a configuration tuned for Ed Brown 1911 dimensions (model: Various). This magazine is a straightforward way to tailor your pistols’ carry characteristics without permanent modification. Keep in mind magazine capacity may be affected by the base pad removal; select holsters and belt rigs accordingly.
For responsible owners prioritizing discreet carry, the combination of Ed Brown quality and the removable base pad gives practical options for both range performance and daily concealment. Verify fit in your holster and perform function checks after changing the base pad.
