Using feedback from real world users, Salient Arms developed the SAI BLU to fill the void between M&P ergonomics and Glock reliability.

EMG has furthered their collaboration with Salient Arms International with the long awaited EMG BLU. Designed closely with the geniuses at SAI, the EMG / SAI BLU is designed to be as close to the real thing as possible offering shooters and enthusiasts the most realistic training analog available. Featuring a durable polymer frame, machined aluminum slide and barrel assembly and interchangeable backstraps, the EMG / SAI BLU not only looks like its real deal cousin, it feels like it as well. Authentic rollmarks and branding top off the look, making it almost impossible to differentiate the 6mm version, from the 9mm version.

" Overall it is a good gun but on the C02 version it is really hard to operate the co2 mag
" Pros:
-Aesthetically pleasing
-Good FPS
-Includes thread adapter
-Build quality is fantastic
Cons:
-Most upgrade parts are for the full size version NOT the compact version
-Thread adapter doesn't stay on the barrel, even with the copious amount of thread locker I put on it
-Gas consumption is absurd (I'm new to green gas guns so maybe I didn't charge the magazine enough)
- When it says it doesn't fit Glock holsters it means exactly that, I thought maybe it would in a light-compatible Ragnarok holster from T.rex arms, but nope. The front end of the frame where the rail is, is about 1-1.5mm taller than a Glock 19. Therefore, it doesn't fit.
-Iron sights aren't great, 3 dot sights are superior.
I realize I am nitpicking, but if you're buying this gun to upgrade or for holster/parts compatibility, just don't. I'm pretty disappointed, get a Glock.
" For overall looks this pistol nails that. It feels great in the hand and feels built well. A couple of negatives about it however, firstly the co2 version I bought chronos at 380 FPS with .2s wayyyy to hot for indoor/outdoor side arm play. The advertised FPS of the blu compact is 315-350 on this model. And 340-380 on the full size which is why I bought the compact over the full size, but it shoots quite a bit over advertised. Chrono was In AC room, not hot conditions. I will have to buy all new mags but green gas instead to be able to use the pistol now. Also the screw holding the front sight on was loose out of the box, not realizing this at first and upon racking the slide a few times the screw head sticking down was getting hung up on the outer barrel and scratching the finish. Overall I still like the pistol, just shoots hotter than advertised or expected, maybe it’s just mine idk. With green gas mags I think I will enjoy it, or at least be able to use it.
