On our scale, it weighs a solid 6.0 oz, contributing to its stable feel.
Why This One?
- Scorpion Finish: The signature flat dark earth PVD coating provides exceptional corrosion resistance and a low-glare, tactical appearance that’s built to handle daily carry.
- Enhanced Grip & Controls: Aggressive G10 grips and front/rear slide serrations ensure positive handling in all conditions. The extended magazine base plate offers a full three-finger grip.
- 1911 Heritage: Features a single-action trigger, manual thumb safety, and slide stop for those who prefer a familiar, deliberate carry and shooting platform.
- All-Metal Frame: The lightweight aluminum frame provides a durable, rigid platform that manages recoil effectively for a pistol of this size, making it more shootable than many polymer alternatives.
- Ready for Optics: The slide is cut for SIG’s proprietary ROMEO1 footprint, allowing for direct mounting of a micro red dot sight without an adapter plate.

Q & A
Is this a good choice for a first-time 1911-style pistol owner?
Yes. The P938 EMPEROR SCORPION offers the manual of arms and shooting characteristics of a 1911 in a more manageable, concealable 9mm package. Its size makes it an excellent introduction to the platform, though familiarity with the manual safety is essential.
How does it compare to the standard P938?
The EMPEROR SCORPION model includes several upgrades: the distinctive flat dark earth PVD Scorpion finish, aggressive G10 grips, an extended magazine, and front/rear slide serrations. It’s a more feature-complete, duty-ready version of the base model.
What holsters fit the P938 EMPEROR SCORPION?
It is compatible with most holsters designed for the standard SIG P938. The slightly textured G10 grips and finish are durable, but may require a break-in period with some kydex holsters for a perfect fit.
