The EMP series scales the 1911 platform to 9mm in a micro size, pairing a forged steel slide in matte stainless with a forged aluminum-alloy frame in black. The bi-tone finish is clean and purposeful, with thin-profile gray/black textured G10 grips for a secure, slim hold.
Its 3-inch, bushingless match-grade bull barrel includes a fully supported feed ramp. This setup delivers a tight barrel-to-slide fit and robust muzzle mass in a compact format.
Sight regulation comes from Trijicon 3-dot tritium night sights (marked H3 15), dovetailed front and rear. The slide is configured with rear cocking serrations only and a lowered/flared ejection port.
Controls and ergonomics include a single-action operation with a lightweight, skeletonized three-hole trigger; a skeletonized Commander-style hammer; a left-side thumb safety; and a beavertail grip safety with memory bump. Frame details include a checkered front strap, flat checkered mainspring housing, and a beveled magazine well. Capacity is 8+1 with EMP-specific single-stack magazines manufactured by Mec-Gar. Made in the USA.
