Witness The Next Generation at NRA Annual Meeting 2026

European American Armory (EAA Corp.) is set to unveil two new models expanding their double-stack Witness2311® lineup at the 2026 NRA Annual Meeting, taking place April 16–19 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas.

The next generation of Witness2311® pistols are here and were developed in collaboration with Girsan and Check-Mate Magazines. Attendees and NRA members are invited to swing by Booth 3031, where the EAA team will showcase the highly anticipated XXX Series.

The two new sub-compact double-stack 1911 variants feature key updates over previous Witness2311 models, including improved grip texture, a more streamlined profile, and the option of a Grip Safety or an Auto Firing Pin Block Safety.

 

  • Witness2311 CMX XXX: 9mm 16-round with Two-Tone Finish, Tuned Trigger, Lightening-cut slide, Auto Firing Pin Block (No Grip Safety), SKU: 395062, MSRP: $899.

 

  • Witness2311 SC 9 XXX: 9mm 16-round with Black Cerakote Finish, Grip Safety
    SKU: 395064, MSRP: $599.

A key feature of the XXX Series is its slim magazine, developed by Check-Mate to fit the shorter and slimmer grip module. It sits flush in the gun while still delivering a full 16-round capacity in a compact, easy-to-conceal package.

The event will take place at the EAA booth on April 17 from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. Media, industry insiders, and partners from Check-Mate will be on site to celebrate EAA’s unveiling. Attendees can expect a lively presentation along with exclusive giveaways and refreshments.

  1. I’m very interested in the new cmx xxx model I would like to know when it will be released?

  2. I want one, so does my son. How many magazines will it come with? Will a 10 round magazine be available? Living in NYC we have to have 10 rounders. I refuse to butcher the 16 rounders. I’d rather purchase a couple of 10s, then drive to pick up the 16s where they’re legal. I travel a lot. When I go to a state where the 16 is legal I don’t usually carry a back up mag. If the Stacotto, or the MBX work that’s fine with me.

  3. may I please be notified when both of these models are available to order or pre-order? thank you.

  4. How do we secure a spot for the new 2311 SC9xxx SKU: 395064 when it will be released? why are there no responces to any of the questions on here?

    1. Hi Matt,

      Thank you for contacting EAA and for your interest in the new XXX models. While they were announced at the NRA Annual Meetings, they are not currently shipping to retailers.
