The front sight, it looks like you can probably get that out with a special tool once you take the slide off the frame. ThereвЂ™s a single-set screw on the rear sight. The sites on the gun are tritium filled on the rear and the front is fiber optic. Lastly, the grip is abrasive, which will help you control it while firing, especially firing in cadence.

Since I have small hands, this gun actually feels really good. The best thing I can equate to is grabbing something like a single stack 45 1911, or even a smaller frame Glock 43 or something with a minimal round count in the polymer-framed world. If you have really large hands, you might not like the feel of this. Once you grab it, since itвЂ™s a single stack gun, it fits really well in your hand. However, on the front of the frame and the back of the frame, those textures are likely not going to change unless you did some serious milling work. The EMP4вЂ™s have removable grips and remove with two screws on each side. ItвЂ™s very abrasive, which is the point, but it could be a little more comfortable. It does provide a lot of grip, but it is not the most comfortable. Something like the Staccatos, even the SIG 1911, or Para Ordinance, which are no longer being made, seem to have a better grip texture than the EMP4. There are many newer designs and styles etched into grips and frames compared to this box crate design.

The first thing youвЂ™ll notice about this grip is itвЂ™s a little dated in its design. The feature set on the Springfield Armory EMP4 is what youвЂ™d expect from a 1911 pistol, slim frame, single stack.
