Springfield 1911 Emissary 45 ACP Full-Size Pistol With VZ G10 Grips

Overview

The Springfield 1911 Emissary 45 ACP full-size pistol with VZ G10 grips sits at the intersection of old-school reliability and modern shooter refinement. Springfield Armory built this model for the guy who appreciates a classic 1911 platform but wants updated ergonomics and a more aggressive look. The Emissary line takes the foundation of the legendary 1911 design and adds a forged slide with a distinctive satin Cerakote finish, a forged stainless steel frame, and a bull barrel for improved accuracy. The VZ G10 grips, with their textured pattern, give you a solid purchase on the gun without being too abrasive against your hands. If you have handled a traditional 1911 before, you will notice the Emissary feels a bit more planted and deliberate in the hand. This is a full-size pistol chambered in 45 ACP, built for shooters who want a reliable, accurate handgun that looks as good as it shoots.
