The FX-9 Elite carbine (Freedom Xtreme-9mm Carbine) has a familiar set of operating controls for the avid AR-15 user. It accepts AR-15 stocks and buffers tube assemblies, as well as most free float AR-15 rail assemblies. The FX-9 comes standard with a 10 rd double-stack Glock® style 9mm magazine. When we designed the FX-9, our goals were Reliability, Affordability, and familiar controls for the user.
The FX-9 is machined From Billet material, Anodized type III aluminum components and Full hard nitride Steel components including the barrel, bolt, ejector, last round hold open, feed ramp and extractor for extended wear properties and corrosion resistance. The upper and lower receiver is more than 1.00″ shorter than a standard AR-15 upper and lower receiver making it more compact and lighter than a standard mil-spec AR-15 design.
