Overview

The inclusion of VZ G10 grips ensures a positive purchase on the weapon, even under adverse conditions.

Features and Specs

The springfield 1911 emissary 45 acp full-size pistol with vz g10 grips is engineered with specific upgrades that set it apart from standard production 1911s. Key specifications and design elements include:

• Forged carbon steel frame and slide with a black Armory Kote finish for corrosion resistance and durability. The slide features front and rear cocking serrations for positive manipulation under any condition.
• 5-inch match-grade stainless steel bull barrel with a fully supported ramp and a recessed crown. This barrel design improves accuracy potential and provides consistent lock-up with the slide.
• VZ G10 grips in a textured pattern that provides aggressive traction without being abrasive against cover garments or bare skin. These grips are secured with hex-head screws for a rattle-free fit.
• Low-profile, snag-free Tritium night sights with a white outline rear and a high-visibility front post. The sight set is dovetailed into the slide for windage and elevation adjustment.
• Forged, skeletonized commander-style hammer and a skeletonized trigger with an adjustable trigger stop. The trigger pull weight is factory set to approximately 4.5 to 5.0 pounds.
• Extended beavertail grip safety with a memory bump and a skeletonized titanium firing pin for faster lock time and reduced mass.
• Includes two 7-round stainless steel magazines with a tapered magazine well for faster reloads.
