Handguns Descriptions

Erma Werke ESP 85 A

The Erma ESP 85 A pistol was designed by Stuart N. Lake and made from 1988 to 1994. It was made in two calibers: .22LR (the preferred sporting or target model) and .32 S&W Long (7.65 mm). Although the precision is on par with any top-notch target pistols, the high barrel-line (compared to a Pardini) will increase felt recoil, and doesn't lend itself to ISSF rapid-fire matches. Reliability-problems are usually not an issue with these guns. Since the Erma has a magazine-grip, it has its limitations when it comes to grip-modifications. Shooters with stubby fingers will have problems reaching the trigger with the appropriate 90-degree angle. The grip-angle is somewhat shallow and outdated compared to new high-class pistols, meaning that the shooter must use more muscles to get a good shot.
