Springfield 1911 EMP 40 S&W Centerfire Pistol With G-10 Grips

The Springfield 1911 EMP 40 S&W Centerfire Pistol with G-10 Grips delivers the proven 1911 platform in a compact, carry-ready package chambered in .40 S&W. Built on a forged alloy frame with a 3-inch barrel, this pistol provides the stopping power and accuracy demanded by serious shooters. Each unit is assembled in the USA and features the enhanced magazine capacity and ergonomics that define the EMP (Enhanced Micro Pistol) series.

Overview

Springfield Armory engineered the Springfield 1911 EMP 40 S&W Centerfire Pistol with G-10 Grips to bridge the gap between full-size duty pistols and subcompact carry guns. The shortened slide and bobbed mainspring housing reduce overall length without sacrificing the single-action trigger feel and reliability that define the 1911 lineage. The .40 S&W chambering offers a balance of magazine capacity and terminal ballistics suitable for personal defense. This model comes fitted with aggressive G-10 grips for positive purchase in adverse conditions.

The Springfield 1911 EMP 40 S&W Centerfire Pistol with G-10 Grips uses a short-recoil operating system with a single-action trigger. The frame includes an integral magazine well for reliable reloads, and the magazine release is extended for ambidextrous use. The slide features front and rear cocking serrations for positive manipulation.

Who It’s For

This pistol is intended for experienced shooters who prefer the 1911 platform and require a compact frame for concealed carry. The .40 S&W chambering suits those who want higher energy transfer than 9mm without moving to a full-size .45 ACP. It is appropriate for law enforcement off-duty use, armed security professionals, and civilian carriers who train regularly with the 1911 manual of arms. The G-10 grips provide a secure hold for shooters with larger hands who need a reduced grip circumference. The Springfield 1911 EMP 40 S&W Centerfire Pistol with G-10 Grips is not recommended for novice shooters unfamiliar with manual safeties or the single-action trigger system.
