Springfield EMP Lightweight Compact Features
The Springfield Armory Enhanced Micro Pistol (EMP) translates the benefits of the full-size 1911 into a smaller platform perfectly suited for today’s most popular defense caliber. Easy carrying and smooth shooting, the EMP is built with a forged frame and slide to last a lifetime. To capitalize on the smaller caliber refinements, the EMP Lightweight Compact features a shortened frame and action compared to its full-size counterpart.
The reduced grip radius produces a remarkably comfortable shooting experience and makes the pistol a concealable and confident side arm. The forged steel slide of the Springfield EMP is both rugged and practically indestructible, while a patented forged aluminum alloy frame keeps the gun lightweight and packable. The Springfield EMP Lightweight Compact offers an ambidextrous thumb safety and comes standard with three magazines replete with slam pads.
