A reversible cross-bolt safety sets this MC2c apart from most polymer striker-fired pistols, providing an ambidextrous, positive-acting safety lever without changing the pistol’s slim profile.
The compact frame measures just 1.10 inches wide yet houses double-stack Mec-Gar magazines for 13- or 15-round capacity. An 18-degree grip angle and multi-textured palm-swell panels deliver a natural point of aim and solid purchase.
The 3.9-inch 416 stainless barrel and matching slide carry a black DLC finish that improves hardness, lubricity, and corrosion resistance. Chevron-pattern front and rear serrations make slide manipulation secure from any angle.
Mossberg’s Safe-Takedown System allows the striker to be removed before slide separation, eliminating the need to pull the trigger during disassembly. The flat-faced trigger breaks at approximately 5.5 pounds and resets quickly for controlled follow-up shots.
This model marks Mossberg’s first sustained handgun line since the 1990s, offering buyers a modern USA-made 9mm with distinctive safety features and robust construction.
