Archon Firearms Type B Gen2 9mm 4.3" 18rd RMR Performance Trigger Pistol, Black/FDE

Archon Firearms Type B Gen2 9mm 4.3" 18rd RMR Performance Trigger Pistol, Black/FDE

The Archon Firearms Type B Gen 2 in black and Flat Dark Earth combines a 4.3-inch 9mm Luger barrel with an RMR optic cut and an installed Performance Trigger. Its black slide sits above an FDE Gen 2 grip, giving the pistol a distinct two-tone appearance. With one 12-round, one 15-round and one 18-round magazine included, it offers a practical starting point for range sessions with several capacity options.

A gun bag, gun lock, owner's manual and optic-cut cover plate accompany the pistol. The bag provides a dedicated place for transporting the firearm, while the cover plate covers the optic mounting area when a red dot is not installed. A compatible optic is sold separately.

Order this Archon Type B Gen 2 at BattleHawk Armory for an optic-ready 9mm with the Performance Trigger already installed.

4.3-Inch Standard 9mm Barrel

The standard 4.3-inch barrel is chambered in 9mm Luger, also known as 9x19mm, and has a non-threaded configuration. The barrel, RMR-cut slide and installed Performance Trigger create a practical combination for target work. The FDE grip supplies the visual distinction for shooters who prefer earth-tone furniture beneath a black slide.

Installed Performance Trigger

The installed Performance Trigger has an approximately 3.5-pound pull, a shortened tactile reset, adjustable over-travel and PTFE-treated interacting components. It retains the original factory safeties. The upgrade is already installed, so no separate trigger purchase is required.

AF-Speedlock Operating System

AF-Speedlock uses a non-tilting barrel and low bore axis to help manage muzzle movement. That specialized operating system supports consistent sight recovery, complementing the RMR-ready slide for range sessions focused on repeatable sight pictures.

RMR Optic Interface

The slide is cut for the RMR footprint, giving the pistol a defined mounting interface for a compatible optic. The included cover plate accommodates use without an optic installed. Select an optic with the correct footprint and confirm its mounting requirements before purchase. That fitment check helps you choose the appropriate optic for the slide.

Black Slide with FDE Gen 2 Grip

Flat Dark Earth is used on the Gen 2 grip, while the slide is black. The two-tone combination offers a straightforward way to coordinate with earth-tone range equipment. The grip color complements the black upper assembly without changing the stated barrel length or magazine capacities.

The Gen 2 modular grip architecture supports different grip configurations and texture options. A steel frame and steel slide provide the structural components, paired with a polymer grip. A 1913-style accessory rail offers a defined interface for compatible rail-mounted accessories; individual accessory fit must be checked.

Three Included Magazine Capacities

The pistol ships with one 12-round, one 15-round and one 18-round magazine. Having three magazines included helps organize range sessions and reduces the need to purchase additional magazines immediately. The largest included magazine holds 18 rounds; the other two provide 12- and 15-round options.
