Just got my Emissary back from Springfield, and it feels like it spent a week at the custom shop. They did an absolute masterful job with the blending on the slide and the frame. The smoothness of it to the touch now rivals the feel of my Wilson. I'm 110% satisfied with my purchase now. I'm for...

Well, surprising turn of events. Let's just say the people running this forum are awesome!!! The gun is going back in for blending and refinishing! I'll post another update once it makes it back!

Just to clarify, when I saw low end, I'm referring to one thing only, and that's cost. Because just like with everything, cost is directly connected to the manufacturing quality you get. Does that mean a $500 1911 is going to fall apart when you pick up, of course not. But it's definitely not...

Firearm was purchased online. When going to pick up the transfer, the box wasn't put in front of me until after I had completed my paperwork. I opened the box and examined that everything was there, and that the pistol didn't have any major issues. It had a chamber flag in it, which kept me from...

Update: So customer service got back to me, and said they'll only fix it if there's an issue with function. I told them that even if it functions now, if there is a fitment issue, it may exhibit issues long term. Their reply to that was the same, if it doesn't function properly they'll fix it...

Not sure what unkowledagle is... But I have 2 Kimber's and a Ruger as well that are completely fine. Which is why I referenced LOWER price point in my comment, and not comparable price. I have seen many bottom tier Kimber's that have a lot of blemishes, and Ruger is fairly well known for their...

Hey guys, I was just curious if anyone else that picked up an Emissary recently and encountered this issue. I just picked this up yesterday, new, and the rear of the slide is overhanging the frame. Now I know this isn't a hand fit 1911, but I own several other production 1911's, some at much...
