Why a Blowback 9mm PCC
A 9mm AR shoots soft, costs less per round, and is quiet with a can — which is why pistol-caliber carbines have become the default for training, competition, and home defense. This one is straight blowback: the full-mass carrier and heavy buffer hold the action closed until pressure drops, so there is no gas port, block, or tube to tune or clean.
Running Glock-pattern magazines means the same magazines as the most common duty pistols. The barrel’s chamber mouth is radiused and chamfered to feed from them, and the Gen 2 BCG has a ramped bottom so the trigger works with it cleanly.
What “PRO” Means
The PRO line is Faxon’s factory-complete firearm line built with upgrade-level components from day one — a match trigger, an ambidextrous gas-blocking charging handle, ambi safety, quality furniture — instead of a basic build you upgrade later. Barrels are made in Faxon’s own plant; the firearm is assembled there.

Straight blowback. There is no gas port, block, or tube; the Gen 2 full-mass 9mm BCG and a 5.5 oz 9mm buffer keep the action closed until pressure drops.

The Faxon Enhanced Match Trigger by Schmid® (curved, 3.5 lb), an ambidextrous safety, and the Faxon Edition Breek® Sledgehammer ambidextrous charging handle.
