The FN Reflex is a sleek and capable micro 9mm pistol that’s designed for deep concealment.
SUB COMPACT 9MM FULL
I’ve shot both the GX4 and GX4XL extensively, and noted that the GX4XL is a little softer-shooting-you can read a full review of it here. The pistols come with a cover plate installed, and the RMSc-compatible optics mounting cut has removable pillars that make the gun compatible with some optics that don’t have both sets of recesses. The TORO acronym stands for Taurus Optics Ready Option, and it’s a nicely-executed layout. It has an alloy steel slide and stainless barrel with a slick DLC finish. For the price, it’s nothing to complain about. This micro 9mm concealed carry handgun comes with 11- and 13-round magazines and has a somewhat heavy, but clean-breaking trigger. It’s a semi-automatic striker-fired pistol with a polymer frame, but like the P365, it has a fully removable fire control group. Pulling into the wake of removable-chassis pistols like the Sig P365, the Taurus GX4 is an affordable, shootable pistol that outperforms its price point in many ways. Sights: White-dot front, serrated black rear.Construction: Alloy steel slide, stainless barrel, polymer frame.Even as the smallest micro 9 tested, the S&W CSX is comfortable to shoot. See the full Smith & Wesson CSX review here. The CSX has a short-take-up, crisp trigger, and is very comfortable to shoot, even for shooters with larger hands. It comes with flush and extended magazines with capacity of 10+1 and 12+1 respectively. Plus, it features ambidextrous controls and safety, and although the safety is low-profile, it’s easily disengaged. It comes with two interchangeable textured backstraps, and the otherwise smooth frame has abrasive texturing on the front of the grip as well. In the current field of 9mm micro-compact pistols, the CSX is the tiniest.
SUB COMPACT 9MM SERIES
The Smith & Wesson CSX is a departure from the striker-fired Smith & Wesson M&P series and is a hammer-fired pistol with an aluminum frame. Construction: Stainless steel slide & barrel, aluminum frame.The gun you always carry is more useful than the gun you only sometimes bring along. If you’re going to carry a sidearm while you’re in the woods or mountains, how well and comfortably that handgun fits into what you’re already doing will play a big role in how useful it ends up being. Besides, advances in bullet construction have given us the best 9mm ammo we’ve seen, and made the 9mm more effective than ever. Rather, a tiny pistol tucked into an appendix carry holster might do the trick. 454 to your hip or a duty-sized 10mm to your chest, but having some kind of option for protection is almost always a good thing. There are many applications that don’t really warrant strapping a. To head off any speculation, I won’t suggest that a micro-9 is an ideal or adequate bear defense tool, but it has its place and is often overlooked. When it comes to the guns we carry in the outdoors, we often get so particular about what we carry that we overlook practical and effective options. The best micro 9mm handguns offer many advantages. These guns are popular for personal defense, everyday carry applications, but many hunters and outdoorsmen and women are discovering the practical application that these handguns have for us as well. In addition to compact size and capacity, many offer great ergonomics. It’s not uncommon for a micro-9 to hold ten rounds. Their small size makes them ideal for concealed carry applications and thanks to new designs, they have impressive magazine capacity.
SUB COMPACT 9MM DRIVER
If there is a pistol category that has been a driver of development and innovation in recent years, it’s been the micro 9mm handguns, which are 9mm pistols smaller than what we would traditionally call subcompact.
