The TEC-DC9 uses a striker-fired, simple blowback action in a full-size format, chambered in 9mm Luger. Its upper is tubular steel with a stamped top strap that integrates fixed sights and provides fore and aft sling loops. The lower is polymer, keeping weight balanced while maintaining the platform’s recognizable profile.
The 5 inch barrel is shrouded and perforated, with an externally threaded muzzle. Controls include a paddle-style magazine release and a manual safety. Charging is handled by a right-side, reciprocating round knob on the upper receiver.
Sighting is straightforward with a fixed iron setup: a front blade and rear U-notch. The design emphasizes reliability through simplicity, aided by the blowback system and robust steel upper. Capacity is 30+1, and the included straight steel box magazine aligns with the model’s standard configuration.
Markings on the receiver read: "INTRATEC MIAMI FL 9MM LUGER MOD: TEC-DC9 PATENTS PENDING." This DC-9 variant reflects Intratec’s early 1990s lineage and configuration, delivering the features associated with the series in its standard 5 inch barrel setup.
