    Review: EMP Concealed Carry Contour 9mm

    I'm up to 9600 rounds on my Ronin 4 CCC, still my EDC. Recently shot the Texas Department of DPS Qualification course of fire and scored 247 out of 250, no bad for an old man.

    Do You Think the 1911 Is the Worst Gun for Cops?

    I was discharged from the Army 50 years ago and joined the Washington D.C. Police department. My duty pistol was Smith & Wesson .38 Special, which was a fine wheel gun. However, it wasn’t as accurate or as easy to shoot as the M1911 I carried in the service. shooting a 1911 is almost intuitive...

    Review: EMP Concealed Carry Contour 9mm

    I now have 5200 rounds through my EMP4CCC. Works like a champ. Use it for my EDC. It has not malfunctioned once since I’ve owned it.

    Springfield Armory’s FIRSTLINE: Discount Program for First Responders

    I've bought two pistols through Springfields LE/Military discount program. A great discount. Getting to a dealership is a bit of a chore since I live in the Piney Woods of East Texas, but well worth the drive

    I still carry a 1911 in 45ACP about 50% of the time. The rest of the time I carry a 1911 in 9mm. I can realte to an older body having a more challenging time handling a 45ACP recoil.

    Anyone carry a Mil-Spec 1911? If so let’s talk about the pros and cons

    I carry a full size 1911 in the winter when a jacket helps conceal it. In the summer I carry an EMP4CCC. I don't have a problem with the weight, I also carry 2 mags in addition to the one in the firearm. I've found the 1911 style pistols easy to conceal due to how thin they are. I've been...

    First time 1911 owner

    It has been almost a year since I got my Ronin. I have approximately 7500-8000 rounds through the tube. I had to send it back to Springfield after 4700 rounds for a trigger issue. I got it back in 2 weeks problem corrected. I've taken it to Gunsite for a week-long class and shot Steel Challenge...

    New EDC followed me home today……

    The XDmod2 was once my EDC until I got a EMP4CC. I like the XDMod2, it is a great gun for EDC. Enjoy your new little friend.

    Daughters range day

    That's great. I was so proud of my granddaughter this year. She's a junior in college and decided she wanted to spend spring break with her grandpa and learn how to shoot. She handles a EMP4CCC pretty good.

    Review: EMP Concealed Carry Contour 9mm

    I would be surprised if it wasn't a best seller, my local gun store couldn't keep them in stock. They were a bit pricy, but well worth it, great shooters and easy to pack. My wife and I both use the EMP4CCC for our EDC.
