Built by Springfield Armory, this full-size pistol is engineered for shooters who require precision out of the box and an aggressive aesthetic that signals capability.

The inclusion of VZ G10 grips provides a stable shooting platform with positive texture, ensuring control under rapid fire.

Features & Specs The Springfield 1911 Emissary 45 ACP full-size pistol with VZ G10 grips is built around a forged carbon steel slide and a stainless steel frame, both treated with a two-tone Cerakote finish for corrosion resistance. A 5-inch bull barrel provides improved accuracy over traditional bushing barrels by eliminating barrel-to-slide play. The pistol features a lightened skeletonized trigger with an adjustable trigger stop, offering a clean break with reduced overtravel. The VZ G10 grips are contoured with a aggressive texture pattern that locks the hand in place without abrading skin during extended sessions. The front sight is a tritium night sight with a red fiber optic front ring, paired with a Tactical Rack U-Dot rear sight for rapid target acquisition. The Emissary also includes an integral mainspring housing with a 20-line-per-inch checkering pattern, a lowered and flared ejection port, and a beavertail grip safety with a raised palm swell.
