Bought a new EMP this past weekend at the Saxet Gun Show.

I was very impressed with my first 10 rounds out of the pistol.
WWB at 7 yards.

That's a nice group for the first shots out of a new weapon.

If you don't mind me asking; How much? As I've heard it was kinda pricy.

Thanks

Yeah I think it was kinda pricey too.
975.00.
I like it though. :)

That looks like a sweet little shooter. And from the groups, I think its confirmed. Nice choice!

You bet, its a keeper. I shoot this much better than my Kahr PM 9.

I handled one of those at the Big Town gun show about two weeks ago, its about the same size as my 3" Kimber. Very nice little gun, I'd like to own one eventually. Had a nice finish to it.

Would you be willing to part with said Kahr? ;-)

You know what I'm seriously considering it. However I would like to carry both first. Soon as my license comes in that is.
But Yeah, the thought had crossed my mind to sell the Kahr.

When I picked up my new pistol yesterday, lo and behold there was an SA EMP sitting on the top shelf, right under the glass, smiling at me. The guy behind the counter saw me eying it, and asked if I wanted to see it. I admit I paused for a second, but became suddenly sane and shook my head. "Not this year," I said. My credit card is going to need a month or so to recover. ;-)

That little guy has a beefy-looking bull-barrel on it, something I didn't catch in the photos. It should be able to handle any kind of juiced-up 9mm load you'd want. The full-sized 1911 I picked up has the mirror-image color scheme: stainless frame, black slide. The EMP would sure go well with it...
