Yes, measure just the width of the grip from one side of the panel to the other, a single stack 1911 may be thicker or the same as a double stacked 1911 (2011), or a Glock. But if you measure the circumference, you'll find that 1911's are generally smaller in that dimension, and is what people refer to more as a smaller grip.
If you want to reduce width further, bust out a piece of sandpaper or a file, and put some elbow grease in to it!

The proud MARSOC ones and Readyfighter ones I linked eariler and look good too in my option. Do you have any experience with those grips and can comment on their thickness? Or would you recommend another airsoft replica grip thats also pretty thin?

Yes, it's the Gunner Grips on my Warrior that I measured.
I have no experience with the other panels you linked to.

Don't think I've ever mentioned that before. In fact, I've always thought the MEU mags had a larger internal capacity, and thus, held more gas. I just never said anything because it was never confirmed. I just proved my supposition was incorrect, by doing the measurements yesterday.
