Bersa AR9 | 9mm | 8″ Barrel | 27Rd

The Bersa AR9 is an AR-style 9mm pistol that pairs a compact 8″ barrel profile with an AR-platform chassis and a KAW Valley XL compensator for controllability. It features a Picatinny optic footprint, M-LOK handguard, and accepts Glock-pattern magazines with a 27-round capacity. This configuration is suitable for pistol-caliber carbine competition and for extended range training and practice.

Suggested optic: a compact 1x red-dot such as the Holosun 510C pairs well with the AR9 and is available for well under $1,000.
