New 9mm Release

BG Defense Co., manufacturer of the TYPE-A Rifle, announces the release of their new 9mm platform.  

I had yet another chance to catch up for a quick Q&A with the co-founders of the company to gain insight on the release of their new 9mm pistol.

Intern 015;

Q: What was the reasoning behind the actual release of the 9mm platform?

Chris Bohan;

A: “Allegedly Brandon was getting several requests for a small/reliable 9mm package from customers and dealers on a regular basis.  Again, it’s Brandon so who knows if that is even true?”

Intern 015;

Q: A little bird told me that you were the biggest critic of the AR 9mm platform?

Chris Bohan;

A: “For sure….it was something I wasn’t interested for the longest time.  Brandon was constantly nagging at me and after listening to him complain for a year, I finally gave in just to shut him up.  I’ll have to admit though, I’m glad I did.  It’s probably one of the most enjoyable platforms yet to shoot.  If you haven’t shot a 9mm AR rifle or pistol make sure you try it before you knock it.”

Intern 015;

Q: What makes your 9mm pistol different from others in the market?

Chris Bohan;

A: “The two biggest complaints about other 9mm’s on the market was reliability and the last round bolt open was always built into the upper.  So…we attacked those two area using our TYPE-A chassis.  We designed the extractor to be more reliable so that the shooter would experience less ejection issues.  Then we simply designed the last round bolt open into the lower so that the shooter didn’t have to worry about hardware hanging off the side of the upper receiver.”

Intern 015;

Q: What magazines does the 9mm run on?

Chris Bohan;

A: “Umm, Glock Mags….  Is there anything else?  Why are you asking stupid questions?”

Intern 015;

Q: Are you guys planning on offering a 16″ PCC version for competition shooters?

Chris Bohan;

A:  “Sure, if there are requests out there we would be more than happy to offer it.  We want to hear from our customer on what they would like to see from us.  We are also working on a shorter version as well.  We haven’t landed on a rail design yet, but its on the books for the 9mm, 5.56 & 300BLK calibers.”

There you go guys!  Feel free to email me (Intern 015) at sales@bgdefense.com with any questions or request.
