Springfield Armory is proud to announce the newest addition to its award-winning family of 1911 pistols - the Ronin EMP. Combining the popular features of the Ronin Series with the patented CCW-ready modifications that made the Enhanced Micro Pistol (EMP) the smallest 1911 in the world, the result is a potent and packable EDC 1911 built specifically for the 9mm cartridge. Rather than simply shortening the barrel and slide like most compact 1911 pistols, the EMP also shortens the frame and action . In fact, the pistol features 11 proprietary parts distinct from a standard 1911 as a result of this adaptation. The end result is a pistol with a reduced grip radius for both enhanced comfort and concealability.
The Ronin EMP combines the popular features of the Ronin series with the patented CCW-ready modifications that made the Enhanced Micro Pistol (EMP) the smallest 1911 in the world. The patented EMP design stands apart in the 1911 market, having been specifically engineered around the 9mm cartridge. The reduced-size frame and 3” barrel gives you a pistol that is not only shorter and more compact, but also has a reduced grip radius for enhanced comfort and concealability. The 3”-barreled Ronin EMP offers an extremely compact and concealable pistol that still packs in 9+1 rounds of powerful 9mm. With its compact slide and reduced-sized frame, the pistol provides shooters with a packable pistol with exceptional ergonomics.

In fact, the pistol features 11 proprietary parts distinct from a standard 1911 as a result of this adaptation.

Proprietary parts include the frame, slide, firing pin, firing pin spring, extractor, ejector, trigger, plunger tube, plunger tube assembly, grips and magazine.
The Ronin EMP’s compact 3” bushingless bull barrel is made of forged stainless steel and features a fully supported ramp. The barrel’s thick and rugged profile provides a great deal of strength, rigidity and accuracy for the potent and packable pistol.
