What’s Included
- Feather Industries AT-9 9mm semi-automatic rifle
Produced by Feather Industries in Boulder, Colorado, this AT-9 represents the original maker’s run prior to later Feather USA/RAV branding. It is referenced as the Feather AT-9 Carbine in 1994 Congressional records, adding clear historical context to the model’s profile. Made in the USA, it sits within the AT-series lineage.
The AT-9 uses a semi-automatic, simple blowback action with a right-side charging knob and right-side ejection. Its separate lower housing includes an integral magazine well and accepts Uzi-pattern magazines. No magazine is provided; as configured, capacity is one round.
Its 16-inch barrel is removable via the knurled barrel collar, giving the platform a takedown design for easy separation of the barrel assembly. The ventilated tubular upper features large circular cooling ports, and the carbine provides for iron sights; components and configuration may vary from the standard arrangement.
The carbine is outfitted with a two-rod wire folding stock with a looped butt, paired with a black synthetic pistol grip. The listed length of pull is 14.5 inches. The metal receiver and shroud wear a black finish consistent with the AT-series aesthetic and construction.
