Stainless Steel SI Magwell for Springfield EMP3 and VZ Grips Bundle

SHIPPING 9/12

BACKGROUND:

We have been inundated with requests for a version of our popular SI "Shooter Installed" Magwell to fit the Springfield EMP3. Our SI magwell has become sort of the "go-to" for no-gunsmith 1911 magwells. We've always liked the little guns, and were excited to see how much demand there was for an EMP-specific SI Magwell.

In order to do this, we had to take some specific modifications to our design. One, the dimensions are different of course, but two, the EMP factory magazines have a baseplate design that interferes with the front contours of our SI. We redesigned the front contours to specifically work with the factory Springfield magazines.

The magwell makes the pistol much more comfortable to shoot because of the roundbutt, the funnel makes reloads so much faster and reliable and of course, the custom VZ Grips match the magwell perfectly and the standard thickness gives quite a bit more control when shooting. We hope the wait is worth it.

KEY FEATURES:

Updated design for Springfield EMP3: Unique, wider baseplate profile designed to work with factory EMP3 magazines

Large Sculpted Funnel: Maximizes surface area for dramatically faster reloads. Unlike most magwells, this one goes all the way to the inner magazine well.

Ergonomic Design: Low-profile roundbutt and flowing lines for a cohesive, custom look.

Roundbutt: Enhances shooting comfort for those whose hands hang over the magazine well opening. With smaller compact 1911s like the EMP, a lot of folks find discomfort at the heel of the pistol, with the corner of the MSH digging into the palm. The slightly extended length, combined with the smooth flowing roundbutt, makes the pistol much more comfortable to shoot

Eliminates Sharp Edges: Smooth surfaces provide total carry comfort and reduces chance of printing.

Custom Quality Checkering: Precision checkering at 25 LPI for enhanced recoil control.

One-Piece Construction: CNC machined from solid, heat-treated steel for ultimate durability.

Custom VZ Grips: Made to work in conjunction with VZ Grips EMP3 Magwell Grips.

NOTE ON GRIPS: The EMP SI Magwell was intentionally designed with the standard width grip profile to give the shooter a worthwhile increase in reload speed and comfort while shooting. In our testing, we found that we couldn’t offer a significant increase in the funnel area while following the profile of the factory (slim) EMP3 grips. Furthermore, many shooters find they can control the 1911 platform much better with standard-thickness grips, as opposed to slim grips. We collaborated with VZ Grips to make custom EMP3 grips specifically for use with our EMP3 SI Magwell. They follow standard thickness profile, are contoured to exactly match the lines of our magwell, and are flat-bottomed to give a very cohesive, finished look. We highly recommend switching the factory EMP3 grips to VZ Grips’ EMP3 magwell grips. They will sit flush with the magwell and the G10 material offers superior grip in conjunction with the SI Magwell’s 25 LPI checkering.
