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

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

The Archon Firearms Type B Gen 2 Ported combines a 4.3-inch ported barrel and ported slide with an RMR optic cut and an installed Performance Trigger. Chambered in 9mm Luger, this all-black configuration brings together the main features a range-focused shooter may otherwise need to select separately. One magazine each in 12-, 15- and 18-round capacities is included, along with the gun bag, cover plate, lock and manual.

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 Ported Barrel and Slide

Porting is incorporated into both the 4.3-inch 9mm barrel and the slide. The barrel ports vent propellant gas through the matching slide openings to help counter muzzle rise during firing. This integrated approach provides the ported configuration within the barrel and slide themselves. It is a useful distinction for shooters seeking additional muzzle control as part of the pistol, with no separate muzzle-mounted compensator included.

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 and Black Gen 2 Grip

The black slide and black Gen 2 grip create a uniform finish scheme around the ported upper assembly. This matched appearance suits an all-black range setup and coordinates naturally with black optics and accessories. Porting is incorporated into the black slide above the grip.

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.
