Wilson Combat engineers have designed three unique AR-9 lower receivers with last-round bolt hold open that are compatible with the most popular 9mm service pistol magazines from GLOCK®, Beretta®, and the Wilson Combat EDC X9. AR-9G lowers will accept all double column 9mm Glock magazines.
AR-9B lowers will accept all double column 9mm (92 Series) Beretta magazines.
Because of the wide variability in factory ammunition and many generations of GLOCK® pistol magazines, we recommend the use of the latest generation factory GLOCK® magazines and extra power magazine springs for optimum reliability in the AR-9G model.
AR-9X lowers will accept all double column 9mm (EDC X9, SFT9, SFX9 and eXperior Double Stack) Wilson Combat magazines.
These billet-machined aluminum receiver models also accept standard AR accessories like furniture, triggers, charging handles, buttstocks, and optics and incorporate an integral trigger guard and flared magwell for fast reloading. The AR-9 series of carbines has multiple patent-pending features that make it unique to the 9mm carbine market.
The Wilson Combat AR-9 closed-bolt blowback operating system is soft shooting and reliable with a wide variety of 9mm loads. It exhibits flawless feeding with all common pistol bullet shapes, including hollowpoint and +P tactical ammunition. The AR-9 bolt hold open ensures reliable lockback on empty with your pistol's factory magazines. The AR-9 proprietary bolt carrier group with heavy-duty claw extractor and plunger ejector is tuned for exceptional reliability.
The AR-9 is also an optimized suppressor host with minimal gas blowback and enhanced accuracy over other designs. Wilson Combat, carbon steel match-grade, button-rifled 1-10" twist 9mm barrels ensure that the AR-9 meets our stringent quality and accuracy requirements.
The Wilson Combat AR-9 can be ordered with your choice of GLOCK® 17, Beretta® 92 or Wilson EDC X9 magazine compatibility.
"We have extensively tested the AR-9, and it has exceeded my expectations for reliability and accuracy. When the AR-9 is mated with a quality red dot sight and weapon light, it is an exceptional training and home defense firearm for shooters of all skill levels."
