Ed Brown KC18G4 Kobra Carry 45 ACP 4.25" 7+1 SAO Pistol

The Ed Brown KC18G4 Kobra Carry is a premium, custom-built 1911 semi-automatic pistol chambered in .45 ACP and purpose-built for everyday carry and defensive duty. A signature model from Ed Brown, the Kobra Carry pairs the Ed Brown Bobtail frame with the Gen4 Snakeskin treatment on the slide and frame, giving the pistol a distinctive look and improved purchase during manipulation.

Built around a single-action-only (SAO) operating system, the KC18G4 carries 7+1 rounds of .45 ACP and features a compact 4.25" stainless steel barrel finished with a recessed crown for a flush profile and added durability. The slide and frame are machined from carbon steel with a corrosion-resistant Black Gen4 finish, with the slide wearing aggressive serrations for confident press checks and slide manipulation. The beavertail grip tang provides a high, comfortable hold and a natural point of aim.

Target acquisition is fast and intuitive with a fiber optic front sight paired with a fixed rear sight. The pistol wears attractive laminate wood grips for a classic 1911 feel, and a grip and thumb safety complete the standard 1911 manual of arms. Custom touches include the recessed slide stop and heavy chamfered edges that Ed Brown is known for. At approximately 35 ounces, the Kobra Carry carries enough heft for controlled recoil while remaining comfortable for all-day carry.
