New Toy.....
Springfield EMP in 9mm. New in box with 3 mags, holster and double mag holder.
Everyone I know that has one loves it, so....... I took the plunge. I can carry this one and leave the BHP in the safe most of the time ('cept for BBQ's).

Guns are like parachutes, if your ever in a situation that you need one and you dont have one, you'll probably never need one again.

But here is a pretty good review of the pistol along with range report from another owner/forum.

I can't make it 24hrs without trying out a new gun. Especially one that nice.

Thanks USA1. Funny thing is.......I was just at the range yesterday shooting my Kobra Carry with my Son who is visiting from Canada.USA1 wrote:I don't know how you can stand it.AEA wrote:Will probably be awhile before I get to the range with it.RiverRat wrote:Congrats.

When we got back he noticed the BHP in the safe and asked how many 9mm's I had. I said only one. He said you should get another (knowing the BHP was somewhat a Queen).
I had recently sold my Kahr that I had as a 2nd because I just was not using it (you know I am a 1911 kinda guy). But I have always wanted an EMP since they came out but never got around to it.
So, last night I ordered the EMP from a dealer in South Dakota.

Re: New Toy.....
That price in the review was way high because of the new release of the gun around 2006-07 and not only were they high, they were extremely hard to find any available.Bonc_CHL wrote:Ok well on the third look I had to take, I dang near choked when I got to the price, looks like this one will have to wait till I hit the Lotto!
I got this one for $1150.00, including shipping, NIB from South Dakota (no tax). Of course, I am going to send the Texas use tax in right away.
