The EGW long nose plug is engineered for 1911 owners who've upgraded to thicker aftermarket bushings. When you install a heavier bushing on your Government or Commander model, a standard spring plug sits too far back and looks unfinished. That's where this extended-nose design comes in. The longer nose lets the plug face sit perfectly flush with the thicker bushing, giving your pistol that polished, custom appearance without affecting how the gun functions.
Machined from solid carbon steel and finished in matte blue, this plug pairs seamlessly with EGW Thick Flange, Melt, or Carry Bevel bushings. It's designed specifically for the Government length 5-inch frame. The solid end design works with standard G.I. spring guide setups, so if you're running a traditional spring guide instead of a full-length guide rod, this plug is the right choice. Overall dimensions are 1.13 inches long with a .13-inch nose extension and .49-inch outside diameter.
Weighing just .3 ounces, this plug is precision-machined in the USA and fits any Government or Commander model pistol. It's purely a cosmetic upgrade that doesn't impact reliability or function, but if you appreciate the details on your gun, the difference between a flushed-fit plug and a standard one is obvious when you run your hand over the muzzle.
This solid-end variant is your choice if you're using a G.I. spring guide setup. If you're running a full-length guide rod instead, EGW also makes an open-end version that accommodates that setup.
A long nose plug extends further into the bushing area, allowing it to sit flush with thicker aftermarket bushings like EGW's Thick Flange, Melt, or Carry Bevel designs. A standard plug leaves a visible gap when used with these thick bushings, so the long nose variant fills that space for a finished appearance.
No. The long nose plug is purely cosmetic and won't impact reliability or functionality. Using your old spring plug in place of this one won't affect how the gun operates, but the flush fit with a thick bushing does look significantly better and more professional.
If you're using standard bushings, a regular plug will work fine and look normal. If you've upgraded to one of EGW's thick bushings, the long nose version is designed to sit flush. Using a standard plug with a thick bushing will leave a visible gap that many builders want to avoid.
The solid end version is for G.I.-style spring guides, which don't go past the muzzle. Open end plugs allow for full-length guide rods that extend beyond the muzzle. This listing is for the solid end, so make sure you have a standard G.I. spring guide setup.
