Considering another SA 1911...anyone have one of these?

I like SA more than any other 1911 brands, I wanted a compact, if I had money I would go for it, thumbs up on the picture!

There are much better choices for a CCW type pistol or revolver.

I wouldn't mind hearing some other views & suggestions

update- I fired about 120 rounds through it and it functioned perfectly.

That's good to hear

Well after looking and reading and asking and contemplating buying another brand I did it. I bought the EMP chambered in 9mm. It appears that lots of the issues I read about were from older models before SA scrapped that design and completely redid the gun. I think it is going to be one of my favorite guns.


I think first thing first....pachamyr grip like on my loaded.....makes the gun 10 times better!


Thanks to everyone for the advice

I just ordered diamond back rattler snake skin grips for the sarge (The finer grain). :-)

Same here.

Sent mine to Springfield twice for repairs. Springfield ended up giving me a credit to purchase a new gun or have work done at The Custom Shop.

I ended up sending in my Trophy Match to get a $1,000 face lift

It now puts my SA Professional to shame on the ten ring.

The EMP is a very good gun. If you venture over to the XD talk site ...

...

Nasty site. Would not recommend it. Posters over there in general are just plain nasty. Nothing there ever gets sold because everyone over there are creeps and suspicious. Okay, not everyone, but I've come across more than a few...

How old was the gun?

Anyone have a colt defender in 9mm or 45 and what do you think of it.

A little courtesy, start another thread or please don't hijack mine. This is about the SPRINGFIELD EMP.

Thank you
