PSA JAKL 6.5" 9mm Pistol
This review covers the Palmetto State Armory (PSA) JAKL in 9mm with a 6.5-inch barrel. The firearm features a monolithic upper with an internal recoil mechanism, allowing it to be fired while folded and eliminating the need for a buffer tube. It utilizes an ARV-style lower with last-round bolt hold-open and accepts ARV or CZ Scorpion magazines. The JAKL is praised for its compact size, reliability, and smooth recoil impulse, attributed to its direct blowback system, heavy BCG, and mass damper. While not inexpensive, its unique features make it a compelling option for PDW or personal defense roles.
