Well I went to Bill's in Hudson on Sunday to run some more rounds through my Taurus PT809; as well as rent the Springfield EMP 9MM
Well the EMP is catigorizerd as a Sub-Compact 1911 with it only being a 3" barrel.Though in my eyes is a compact due to the grip is just short of a full size grip.
I had put around 150 rounds through her while I was there and I was suprised with the accuracy of the pistol shooting 2 handed as well as 1 handed strong and weak hand. Shooting from 15 and 25 feet I was having fairly tight groups (3") for being the first time I have handled this pistol. Would I go as far as buying said pistol for a stand alone CCW machine; Yes! It fits my hands better than most of the other pistols in this catagory. Though I'd lean more towards the 4.25 verses the 3" barrel; I'm not yet sold on the 1911 platform just yet.
