Basisplatten für 1911

(10 produkte)

Base pads for 1911 pistols replace the factory floorplate to add a grippy bumper for faster, surer reloads and—on many magazines—extra capacity (model-dependent). They’re also essential when running a magwell.

Why upgrade

Speed & consistency: a wider, textured pad helps magazines lock in under stress.
Added capacity: extensions can provide extra rounds—see product notes for exact gains and rules.
Magwell fit: pads labeled magwell-compatible give the height/geometry to seat against large funnels.
Durability: aluminum/brass pads shrug off drops better than thin OEM plates.

Pick your type

+0 (bumper) pads: no capacity change; ideal for duty/EDC or divisions with strict limits.
Extensions: added capacity; some setups require a spring/follower kit for reliable feeding.

1911 compatibility—quick checks

Frame size: Government/Commander vs. Officer use different magazine lengths—match pads to your mag body.
Magwell builds: MSH-integrated or bolt-on funnels typically need extended pads to seat on a closed slide.
Magazine brand: OEM vs. aftermarket (e.g., Mec-Gar, Wilson, Tripp) may have different locking inserts—check notes.
Rules & gauges: verify overall magazine length limits for your sport before choosing an extension size.

Materials

Aluminum

Pros: light, tough, many anodized finishes. Cons: cosmetic wear shows with hard use.

Brass

Pros: adds mass for positive seating and control. Cons: heavier for all-day carry.

Polymer

Pros: light, affordable, EDC-friendly. Cons: less impact-resistant than metal.

Install basics

Unload; control the spring while removing the OEM floorplate (eye protection recommended).
Fit the new pad (and spring/follower if supplied), ensuring the lock engages.
With the slide locked back, insert a loaded magazine to confirm positive seating—especially with a magwell—and verify drop-free.
