Wash your ears....
Well, that's one of the things mom used to say....
I finally scoped out the "ears" thing.... The folks at "Entreprise" sell wide-bodied 1911 frames and grips, and I noticed that their grips also have the ears.
I asked.... They answer their e-mail. I'd buy something from them but their web site's "order" thingie is broken....
If you look at a wide body 1911 with a standard trigger system, the trigger bow has to go AROUND the magazine, and to save a ton of metal, Entreprise (that's not a typo) cuts a good piece of steel out of the rear of the grip frame to accomodate the bow.
The ears cover the part of the cutout that the grips don't....
The LDA, doesn't need or have that cutout, so the ears have no place to go. Removing them is fine / necessary. What made some of the confusion is that the Tac-Four and the P1345 can use the same grips, but the P1345 is NOT an LDA, so it needs (and has) the cutouts.
(Same basic grip frame.)
Stu.
