Description
A spare mag is only useful if you can actually get to it in a hurry, and that's where the 1791 Gunleather MAG1.1 earns its keep. This single mag carrier is handcrafted from 100% certified American heavy native steerhide leather, the same premium hide 1791 builds its holsters from, so it carries the same look, feel, and toughness you'd want riding alongside your firearm rig. The open-top design means nothing gets between your hand and your magazine, and the reinforced stitching is built to hold up to daily wear year after year.
What Sets the MAG1.1 Apart
Leather has a way of settling in over time, and this carrier is no exception. It grips your magazine through friction between thick, sturdy hide, and the more you carry it the more it molds to fit. The multi-fit design was made to handle a wide range of standard single-stack magazines, so it works with popular platforms including the Glock 17, HK VP9, and Sig P226. A strong American steel clip and belt-slide mount keep the carrier planted on a standard belt while still letting you slide it into the sweet spot for your carry style.
Carrying the 1791 MAG1.1 Day to Day
One thing worth knowing about quality leather gear: it can run stiff straight out of the box. That's a sign of thick hide, not a flaw. A short break-in gets the magazine seating and drawing smoothly while keeping solid retention. Once it's broken in, this carrier practically disappears on the belt, weighing next to nothing until you load it up.
If you already run a 1791 holster, the Classic Brown finish is a clean match that rounds out the setup. And like the rest of the 1791 lineup, this mag carrier is backed by a lifetime warranty, so you can carry it hard without a second thought.

Frequently Asked Questions
What magazines does the 1791 MAG1.1 fit?
The MAG1.1 is built for standard single-stack magazines and uses a multi-fit design that accommodates a wide range of platforms. That includes popular options like the Glock 17, HK VP9, and Sig P226. Because it grips through leather friction rather than a molded shell, it tends to be more forgiving across different magazine styles than a Kydex pouch.
Is the MAG1.1 ambidextrous, and how does it mount?
Yes, it works for right or left-handed carry. It rides on a belt slide with a strong American steel clip, so it stays put on a standard belt while still letting you slide it around to the most comfortable spot. A sturdy gun belt makes a real difference in keeping it stable, especially once loaded.
Does the leather need to be broken in?
It can feel stiff at first, which comes with the thick steerhide 1791 uses. A short break-in following the included instructions loosens things up so the magazine seats and draws smoothly while still holding retention. After that, the leather settles in and molds nicely to your carry position.
Will the Classic Brown match my 1791 holster?
That's the whole idea behind this carrier. The Classic Brown finish is designed to pair cleanly with a matching 1791 holster so your rig looks like a complete set. If you run brown 1791 gear already, this is an easy match.
