BAD XIPHOS004 Xiphos | 9mm | 30+1 | 8.50in

The Battle Arms Development Xiphos XIPHOS004 is an AR-style pistol caliber firearm built on a billet BAD-GS 7075-T6 aluminum receiver with a free-float M-LOK handguard. It is chambered in 9mm Luger and features a high-capacity 30+1 magazine configuration for extended drills at the range. The Xiphos is constructed with a 4150 chrome-moly steel barrel and a black nitride 8620 blow-back bolt designed for straightforward maintenance and reliable function.

For optics, consider pairing this pistol with a Vortex Spitfire 1x prism sight — a robust, sub-$1000 option that complements the Xiphos’ compact sight radius and close-to-mid-range focus.

Common applications include precision practice and pistol-caliber carbine (PCC) competition formats where controllability and component quality matter.
