Design & Use

The MC9 L model is essentially an extended grip/slide variant of the original MC9, offering higher magazine capacity and a larger grip that many users find easier to handle and control, especially compared with the compact base model.

It’s a striker-fired pistol with modern defensive pistol features and optics readiness, intended to be both concealable and shootable with a balance of size, capacity, and controllability.
