Springfield Armory Offers Concealed Carry Optimized EMP 4 Pistol in .40 S&W

4-Inch Barrel EMP Adds Carry Contour & Grip Enhancements in a New CaliberGENESEO, IL, September 11, 2017 – Springfield Armory®’s reputable EMP® 4″ with Concealed Carry Contour is now offered in .40 S&W for those looking for another variation on this standout 1911 series.
The EMP line captured audiences with ideal concealed carry proportions in a slim, single-stack design; silky-smooth short action; and enhanced ergonomic features. This series is set apart from the competition by the reduced dimensions of the grip frame. Due to it being designed originally around the 9mm cartridge, Springfield’s engineers were able to reduce the diameter and front-to-rear dimensions of the grip frame by 0.26 and 0.14 inches, respectively.
This is immediately evident when you pick up an EMP, especially when you factor in the extra-thin G10 grip panels. Read more
