The latest subcompact pistol from the American manufacturer Ruger - the MAX-9 model - which meets all the expectations set for modern weapons of this segment. The magazine, unusually capacious for the size of the pistol, will provide us with adequate firepower, making the model ideal for use as a personal defense weapon. Created with a view to rapid target acquisition, the instruments allow for an extremely dynamic alignment thanks to the use of a fiber-optic bow tie and a straight pinpoint. The sleek line with a relatively long grip, meanwhile, represents a successful compromise between comfort of use and concealed carry.
The Ruger MAX-9 subcompact pistol offers:- A successful combination of compact size, comfortable grip and large magazine capacity
- Sleek, sharp-edge-free lines ideally suited for concealed carry
- Minimalist texturing that allows for comfortable carry in an IWB holster
- Cold-forged barrel that guarantees a combination of precision and high durability
- Fiber optic musket with tritium illumination for fast riffling regardless of illumination
- Low-profile manipulators to eliminate the risk of snagging the weapon on clothing elements
- Two 12-round magazines and an enlarged footplate to extend the grip
Recent years have represented a remarkable breakthrough in terms of subcompact pistol design, and the Ruger MAX-9 itself is one of the best thought-out models of this type of weapon. Both the silhouette of the weapon, the texturing applied to the grip, as well as the low-profile manipulators guarantee us a high level of comfort in carrying and retrieving the weapon. Cold-forged barrel, large magazine capacity and advanced targeting instruments, meanwhile, will ensure adequate firepower, precision and responsiveness. The latter in particular deserve a more detailed discussion.
The musket uses both a fiber optic and a tritium rod behind it. As a result, the weapon allows extremely fast and instinctive aiming instruments, both in full sun and in residual light conditions. The two included magazines with a capacity of 12 cartridges have been coated with Teflon, which guarantees smooth entry into the socket and protects against corrosion.
