FAXON FX19X HELLFIRE COMPACT 9MM PISTOL

Yes. The FX-19X-HF-02 is a complete, serialized semi-automatic pistol. It ships with every component needed to fire, including two 17-round magazines, a removable RMR cover plate, a 1/2x28 thread protector pre-installed on the barrel, a federally-required trigger lock, and the operator's manual. You will need to purchase 9mm Luger ammunition separately. All firearm purchases require transfer through a licensed FFL dealer.

The FX-19X Hellfire pairs a full-size FX-19X Gen 2 frame with a compact Hellfire slide — the same general configuration as a Glock® 19X or Glock® 45. This gives you a full hand grip, 17+1 capacity from standard Glock® 17 magazines, and improved recoil control, paired with a fast-handling compact slide.

For compatibility:

• Holsters: Glock® 19X / Glock® 45-style holsters fit best (full-size frame, compact slide). Many G17 holsters also work, with extra empty space at the muzzle.
• Magazines: Standard Glock® 17 magazines (10, 15, 17, 24, and 33-round where legal). G19/G26 magazines will function but leave a gap below the frame.
• Frame parts: Glock® 17 Gen 3 grip accessories, slide stops, magazine releases, and trigger guard parts.
• Slide parts: Glock® 19 Gen 3 slide aftermarket parts (extractors, firing pins, etc.).

Note: Glock® Gen 4 / Gen 5 specific parts are not guaranteed to fit due to different frame rail and grip module geometry. The FX-19X Gen 2 frame matches Gen 3 dimensions specifically.

All FX-19 Gen 2 pistols share the same compact slide platform and Glock® 19 Gen 3 slide compatibility. The differences are in the frame (compact vs. full-size) and barrel/slide trim level:

• FX-19 Duty (FX-19-D-02) — Compact frame, Duty slide, Faxon Duty Series non-threaded barrel. 10+1 capacity. $850 MSRP. Most accessible price point.
• FX-19 Patriot Gen 2 (FX-19-P-02) — Compact frame, Patriot slide, Match Series non-threaded barrel. 10+1 capacity. $999 MSRP.
• FX-19 Hellfire Gen 2 (FX-19-HF-02) — Compact frame, Hellfire slide, Match Series threaded barrel. 10+1 capacity. $1,050 MSRP.
• FX-19X Patriot (FX-19X-P-02) — Full-size frame, compact Patriot slide, Match Series non-threaded barrel. 17+1 capacity.
• FX-19X Hellfire (FX-19X-HF-02) — This pistol. Full-size frame, compact Hellfire slide, Match Series flame-fluted threaded barrel. 17+1 capacity. $1,075 MSRP. Flagship build.

Yes — the FX-19X Hellfire ships with a 1/2x28 threaded Match Series barrel, the standard thread pitch for 9mm pistols. It's a direct host for most 9mm suppressors and the full Faxon EXOS® pistol compensator line out of the box — no muzzle device swap or thread adapter required.

The barrel ships with a 1/2x28 thread protector pre-installed. Remove the protector to mount your suppressor or compensator. Important: when running a suppressor on a Glock®-pattern pistol, the optic and slide-stop spring may require tuning — review our Shooting Suppressed guide before your first range trip.

The Hellfire slide is factory-cut for the Trijicon RMR® footprint, which is one of the most widely supported optic patterns on the market. Compatible optics include the Trijicon RMR / RMRcc, Holosun 507C / 508T / 407C, and any other red dot using the standard RMR footprint.

The slide ships with a removable cover plate installed — just remove the cover plate screws, lift it off, and install your optic. Use the Night Fision® Optics-Ready Stealth Series rear sight for lower 1/3 co-witness with any RMR-footprint optic.

Important: Some mounting screws supplied with RMR-footprint optics may be too long and impinge on the extractor spring rod. Verify the extractor moves freely after installing your optic and use shorter screws or a thin shim if needed.

The FX-19X Hellfire ships with the Faxon Match Series Flame-Fluted Threaded Barrel for G19 Gen 2-5 9mm in 1/2x28 threaded configuration — the same Match Series barrel we sell as a drop-in upgrade for stock Glock® 19 Gen 3 pistols. It's machined in-house in Cincinnati, Ohio from 416-R stainless steel (the premium match-grade stainless used in high-end precision rifle barrels) and finished with a durable QPQ nitride treatment inside and out for additional hardness, wear resistance, and long service life.

Compared to our Duty Series barrel (used in the FX-19 Duty), the Match Series adds tighter tolerances for improved accuracy and flame fluting for weight reduction and improved heat dissipation. Compared to a factory polygonal-rifled Glock® barrel, the Faxon Match Series barrel uses conventional rifling, which is generally regarded as more forgiving with lead and reloaded ammunition.

The FX-19X Hellfire is built on the full-size FX-19X Gen 2 frame, which accepts standard Glock® 17 magazines — including 10-round, 15-round, 17-round (standard), and extended 24/33-round magazines where legal. The pistol ships with two 17-round magazines.

Smaller Glock® 19 / 26 / 43 / 43X / 48 magazines will not fit properly — the frame is full-size G17 pattern, not compact G19 pattern. If you're running magazines from your existing Glock® 17, they will work as-is.

FX-19 pistols cannot be shipped to CA, CT, DC, HI, IL, MD, MA, NJ, or NY. Shipments must go overnight to a licensed FFL dealer in your state. Verify your state and local handgun and magazine capacity regulations before ordering — some jurisdictions restrict 17-round magazines. Faxon Firearms is not responsible for compliance with local handgun ordinances at the buyer's location.

The FX-19X Hellfire is designed, manufactured, and assembled by Faxon Firearms in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio. Faxon has operated as a precision machining company since 1978 and has been producing complete firearms since 2012. The frame, slide, barrel, and other Faxon-branded components are all made or assembled in-house. Partner components — the Night Fision® sights — are sourced from their original manufacturer, not aftermarket substitutes.

Every FX-19X Hellfire is covered by the Faxon Lifetime Guarantee.
