Springfield Armory Emissary 1911 .45 ACP 4.25" Two-Tone Semi-Auto Pistol
The Emissary series blends modern defensive features with the classic 1911 platform, and this 4.25" model delivers that formula in a balanced, carry-friendly package. A forged stainless frame with grenade-pattern texturing pairs to a blued, tri-top slide for a striking two-tone look, while the match-grade bull barrel and U-notch sight system emphasize accuracy and speed.

What’s Included
- (2) 8-round Mec-Gar stainless .45 ACP magazines
Built on a forged stainless-steel frame, this Emissary features Springfield’s squared trigger guard and grenade-pattern machining on both the front strap and G10 grip panels, offering a secure, repeatable hold even under rapid strings of fire.
The tri-top slide is cut with 40 lpi flat-top serrations and diagonal cocking serrations front and rear, giving the shooter confident purchase for press checks or slide manipulations while reducing glare along the sighting plane.
A 4.25" match-grade bull barrel sits in a bushing-less system with a fully supported ramp. Combined with the 1:16 RH twist, it delivers consistent lock-up and reliable feeding of a wide range of .45 ACP loads.
Sighting is handled by a vivid yellow/green tritium-luminescent front dot paired with a black serrated tactical-rack U-notch rear, promoting fast target acquisition in varied light conditions.
Single-action operation, a skeletonized hammer, serrated magazine release, and ambidextrous manual thumb safety round out a feature set aimed at shooters who appreciate classic 1911 ergonomics backed by durable, modern construction.
