The PF-9 uses a semi-automatic, locked-breech, double-action-only, hammer-fired system with a spurless external hammer. Controls are simple and intuitive, including a left-side magazine release and an internal hammer block safety. Capacity is 7+1 with the included single-stack magazine.
Construction emphasizes strength with an SAE 4140 steel barrel and slide over an internal 7075-T6 aluminum receiver, paired with a lightweight polymer frame. Rear slide serrations, an external extractor, and a large ejection port support reliable operation and easy manipulation. Country of origin is the USA.
Dimensions are tuned for concealment: 0.88 in width, 5.85 in overall length, and 4.3 in height, with an unloaded weight around 12.6–12.7 oz. The 3.1 in barrel balances compact size with practical 9mm performance, while the single-stack magazine keeps the profile slim.
Sights are straightforward 3-dot irons, with a windage-adjustable rear sight using a 5/64 in Allen set-screw for fine tuning. The dust cover is smooth with no accessory rail.
Introduced in 2006 and discontinued in 2022, the PF-9 earned its place among the thinnest and lightest 9mm pistols of its time, offering a minimalist footprint without giving up essential features.
