FMK 9C1 G2 9mm 4″ Dark Gray Frame Black Slide
About this product
What is the FMK 9C1 G2 9mm 4″ Dark Gray Frame Black Slide? It's a compact striker-fired pistol with a 4-inch stainless steel barrel optimized for everyday carry. Built on a dark gray polymer frame with aggressive texturing, it weighs 23.45 ounces unloaded and ships with one 15-round magazine. The low bore axis and rubberized backstrap directly address the two most common complaints about sub-$300 polymer pistols: muzzle flip and slippery grip surfaces.
What is the FMK 9C1 G2 used for?
This is a no-frills everyday carry weapon that handles like a duty pistol. The 4-inch barrel provides nearly full-size ballistics with 115-grain ammunition while the compact frame conceals easily in an IWB holster. I'd recommend it for someone who wants Glock 19-level capability at nearly half the price.
How does the FMK 9C1 G2 compare to a Stevens 334 Rifle?
They're fundamentally different tools—the 9C1 G2 is a defensive pistol while the Stevens 334 is a hunting rifle. The FMK cycles ammunition in under 0.8 seconds between shots versus the bolt-action Stevens requiring 2-3 seconds for follow-ups. Choose the FMK for personal protection and the Stevens for medium-game hunting beyond 100 yards.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
Unloaded weight is 23.45 ounces with an overall length of 7.25 inches. The slide width measures 1.1 inches and the height with magazine inserted is 5.2 inches. These dimensions put it squarely between a Glock 19 and Glock 17 in terms of hand-fill and concealability.
Who is this NOT for?
Competition shooters and suppressor users should look elsewhere. The fixed sights aren't optic-ready and the barrel lacks threading for muzzle devices. If you're building a nightstand gun with a light and red dot, consider something like the Stevens 555 instead.
What's in the box?
You get the pistol, one 15-round magazine, and basic documentation—no holster or cleaning kit. The magazine features an anti-tilt follower and steel reinforcement at critical stress points, a detail often missing in budget pistols.
Is the FMK 9C1 G2 worth it at $264.99?
At this price point, it delivers reliable mechanical function without cosmetic frills. The savings come from simplified tooling rather than corner-cutting on safety components. For a backup gun or first-time owner on a strict budget, it represents solid value.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with Glock sights?
- No, the FMK 9C1 G2 uses proprietary dovetail cuts that won't accept standard Glock sights. You'll need FMK-specific replacements from manufacturers like TruGlo or Meprolight, which typically run $50-80 for basic night sights.
- Does it fit Glock 19 holsters?
- Partial compatibility only—the trigger guard and slide dimensions are close but not identical. Expect to modify kydex holsters with a heat gun or purchase FMK-specific models from vendors like We The People Holsters.
- How long does shipping take?
- FFL transfers typically process within 3-5 business days after receiving your dealer's information. Ground shipping adds another 5-7 days depending on your location relative to our Nevada warehouse.
- Does this work with extended magazines?
- Yes, it accepts any FMK-standard 9mm magazine including 17-round and 21-round extended options. These cost approximately $25-35 each from Ironclad Armory or Midwest Gun Works.
