Odd name, odd gun. The Charles Daly PAK-9 is listed with a 6.3 inch blued barrel and a 10-round magazine in the Beretta 92 style. It is chambered in 9mm and is new.

Because it takes Beretta 92 style magazines, spares are easy to find, and there are plenty of choices in different capacities. It is not a traditional handgun layout, and you should know how it handles before you order. Check that every magazine seats with a firm click and drops free when you press the release.

The longer barrel gives more velocity from 9mm ammunition than a typical pistol, and a blued finish has a classic look. Shooters who want a fun range gun with cheap ammunition and easy magazine supply may enjoy it.

Read the photos and the description with care, and ask questions if you are unsure. Not every state treats this type of firearm the same way. Confirm that the layout is legal where you live, and ask about the included parts so there are no surprises when the box arrives. The pistol ships to your FFL dealer, and the background check is completed there.
