If you are a John Wick fan or you appreciate a well built fully licenced enhanced EU34, the EMG Taran Tactical Innovations JW2 EU34 Combat Master GBB should put a smile on your face. This pistol is based on the EU34 used by Baba Yaga himself in John Wick: Chapter 2 and boasts full metal construction, a 6.03mm tightbore inner barrel and the EMG OMEGA enhanced frame. 

The OMEGA frame is based on real-world enhanced "Timberwolf" frames and boasts an extended beavertail at the rear to prevent slide bite, a 20mm Picatinny frame rail for a flashlight or laser, trigger guard undercuts for improved handling and aggressive stippling to keep the JW2 firmly in your grasp during rapid fire or bad weather conditions. Pairing this superbly designed frame with the slick TTI JW2 slide makes this pistol as gorgeous to look at as it is to handle, with a stylish combination of black and silver with dynamic swept-back slide serrations both at the front and rear. If a standard EU34 just doesn't do it for you anymore or you have a puppy to avenge, the JW2 Combat Master belongs in your holster!
