This METE MC9 PRIME is built in the United States at Canik USA in West Palm Beach, Florida. It uses a polymer frame with aggressive full-surface stippling, interchangeable backstraps, a low-profile screw-retained magwell, and ambidextrous slide-stop levers. Dimensions are compact at 6.73" overall length, 5.45" height, and 1.20" width, with a weight of 23.29 oz with magazine.
The slide features an RMSc-pattern optic interface with an optics cover plate, front and rear serrations, three matching slide ports, and an oblong top lightening window. The semi-fluted, ported 3.64" barrel is paired with these slide cuts for a distinctive, purpose-built configuration.
Factory sights are Night Fision tritium units: an orange ringed tritium front and a square-notch two-dot tritium rear, both drift adjustable. The slide’s optic cut is compatible with MeCanik MO3/MO4, Shield RMSc, and Sig RomeoZero footprints.
This striker-fired model includes a flat-faced trigger with a 90-degree break and a full suite of safety features: trigger safety, firing pin block, loaded chamber indicator, and striker status indicator. Capacity is 17+1, and the included factory steel double-stack magazines have numbered witness holes. A 4-slot Picatinny accessory rail is molded into the dust cover.
