According to Ruger, the MAX-9 is “your next handgun.” Perfect for everyday carry, the micro-sized MAX-9 has a barrel length of just 3.2 inches and weighs only 19.4 ounces. While small in size, it has a generous capacity of 10+1 or 12+1, depending on the magazine you choose. It’s a striker-fired pistol featuring a quick, smooth trigger pull and positive reset. Optics ready straight out of the box, this pistol is packed with features, including a fiber-optic front sight. Because of its size, it works perfectly holstered inside the waistband or in a pocket holster. It’s rugged, affordable and a reliable option for everyday carry.
