This PF-9 uses a double-action-only, short-recoil, locked-breech system with a hammer-fired, spurless enclosed hammer. Safety features include a firing-pin block, and controls are straightforward with a left-side magazine release. The slide has rear serrations and a blued finish.
Sights are a 3-dot setup with a fixed blade front and a windage-adjustable rear notch with two white dots. This configuration provides a clear, conventional sight picture with the ability to fine-tune windage at the rear.
Dimensions and capacity are tuned for slim carry: a 3.1 in barrel, approximate 0.88 in width, and an unloaded weight of about 12.6–12.7 oz. The standard capacity is 7+1 rounds, and the pistol accepts +P 9mm ammunition, though not for continuous use per factory guidance.
Construction emphasizes durability with a 4140 steel slide and barrel, a 7075-T6 aluminum internal chassis/receiver, and a high-impact polymer grip housing finished in gray with a molded waffle texture. An integral single-slot accessory rail on the dust cover provides a mounting point for compatible accessories. The model was discontinued/retired in 2022 and is made in the USA.
