EMP .40 Contour

Headed to the range tonight to shoot a bullseye match I'll test fire during practice session anxious to see how it functions and accuracy.
I checked barrel lock up it's very good I'm impressed with the fit of barrel and slide to frame is very tight I'm thinking they might have hand fit these before finish.
 
Well the pistol is on its way back to S.A. for a new rear sight. I also was getting occasional light primer strikes so they are going to do some additional testing and probably replace the main spring.
I had to put the factory internals back in it so I mentioned the trigger is horrible it has a ton of creep and mushy I always save factory parts I don't want my extreme engineering parts discarded.
 
Just got notice it's going to be here Monday it looks like besides changing the rear sight they changed the firing pin and the main spring it says to a 28lb "wow" I hope they did a trigger job on it like I asked. I guess they had some issues test firing or they wouldn't have changed all the parts.
They have been very good to deal with even apologizing for the troubles.
 
Got the EMP back today I have not shot it but they changed the rear sight and sent a 10 yard test target it's spot on.
Changed the main spring to a 28lb changed the firing pin due to light primer strikes.
The rear sight was a 20 dollar upcharge they waived.
I also put a little note in the box saying the trigger has a lot of spongey creep and I got back a crisp 3-1/4lb trigger I'm a trigger snob and I like it enough to not mess with it.
So big shout out to Springfield Armory for the excellent customer service !!!
 
Yeah me too thanks not a cheap little pistol I might leave this one in the truck for my work week I have a cheap kel Tek .22 in there but I always think I may need a little more power to and from work ?
It's living in my truck grab groceries on the way home from work got a nice little pistol to go shopping with me I really get nervous not having a gun on me !!
 
I bought my first IWB holster it's a nice holster but not sure I like a inside holster anyone else have any issues with one?

I absolutely can't stand IWB's being a little bit of a fatty... Does it make it hard to carry especially in the summer??? Absolutely. My only advice is keep trying different IWB's till you find one you like. I usually just go with a light leather IWB Las thing I needs to add more mass to it.

Yes ! I almost entirely Dis like lWB .

Grind on hip bone.
Jab me uncomfortably in butt cheek.
Designs that go over the top to shield the body for comfort , being bulky .

A few that are acceptably usable . Fewer still of those that actually offer advantage over my usual holsters. I *might* have found one style that is actually good for me , but I'll give it some more time before public endorsement.
