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

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

The Archon Firearms Type B Gen 2 Ported in black/FDE pairs a black ported slide with an FDE Gen 2 grip and a 4.3-inch ported 9mm Luger barrel. An RMR optic cut and installed Performance Trigger complete the core configuration. Three included magazines provide 12-, 15- and 18-round choices, making this a distinctive two-tone option for shooters who want integrated porting and optic readiness in the same pistol.

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

The 4.3-inch barrel and slide are both ported, allowing gas from the barrel ports to exit through the corresponding slide openings. That arrangement helps oppose muzzle rise and complements the pistol's operating system during range use. The porting is built into the upper assembly, so the configuration does not depend on a separate external compensator. Its barrel is chambered in 9mm Luger, also designated 9x19mm.

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

The FDE Gen 2 grip supplies the earth-tone portion of the pistol, with a black ported slide above it. This two-tone treatment pairs naturally with earth-tone range equipment while retaining a black upper assembly for a contrasting appearance.

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.
