EGW Commander Reverse Plug – Blued Steel | 1911 Bull Barrel

EGW Commander Reverse Plug – Blued

The EGW Commander Reverse Plug – Blued provides a strong, reliable solution for Commander‑length 1911 pistols that use a full‑length guide rod and bull barrel. It supports proper recoil spring retention while delivering a clean, professional appearance at the front of the slide.

Because bull‑barreled and compensated pistols do not use a standard barrel bushing, this reverse plug plays a critical role. It retains the recoil spring securely and ensures consistent cycling during operation.

Designed for Bull Barrels and Compensated Pistols

First, this reverse plug fits Commander‑length 1911 slides configured with bull barrels or compensators. In these setups, the pistol lacks a traditional bushing. Therefore, the reverse plug holds the recoil spring and guide rod in place.

In addition, the plug works specifically with full‑length guide rods, making it ideal for modern Commander builds and competition pistols.

Strong Carbon Steel Construction

Unlike lower‑quality plugs made from soft lead alloys, EGW machines this reverse plug from solid carbon steel. As a result, it resists cracking and deformation, even under heavy recoil and extended firing cycles.

Furthermore, EGW extends and rounds the shoulder for added strength. This design eliminates exposed stress points where cracks typically form. Consequently, the plug delivers longer service life and improved reliability.

Precision Machined for Performance

EGW machines each reverse plug to precise dimensions for a secure fit inside the slide. This precise fit promotes smooth recoil spring compression and consistent slide movement.

Additionally, the blued finish provides corrosion resistance while matching blued or parkerized pistols for a factory‑correct look.

Installation Notes

This reverse plug is made specifically for Commander slides and is available in carbon steel only. Because proper fit is critical to safe operation, a competent gunsmith must install this part.
