The SilencerCo Maxim 9, an integrally suppressed 9mm pistol, failed commercially primarily due to NFA regulations requiring a $200 tax stamp and lengthy wait times. While offering excellent suppression, modularity, and a futuristic design, its high MSRP ($1500-$2000) and heavy trigger made it a niche product. The design's integral suppressor provides better balance and a shorter overall length compared to traditional screw-on suppressors.
The Laugo Arms Alien 9mm pistol is presented as a potential future handgun, featuring an exceptionally low bore axis and a gas-operated, fixed-barrel design. Its ergonomics are noted to combine elements of CZ75 and Strike One, theoretically minimizing muzzle flip. The review highlights its competition-oriented nature and anticipates a US release, while cautioning about potential delays.
