From the Vault: Beretta / Knight's Armament XM9
This "From the Vault" video showcases the rare Beretta/Knight's Armament XM9 pistol, a 1980s U.S. Air Force project featuring a quick-detach suppressor. Brownells Gun Techs Steve Ostrem and Keith Ford explore the modifications, including an extended barrel, unique slide lock for single-shot operation with the suppressor, and integrated suppressor sights. The video highlights the ingenious baffle system of the lightweight suppressor and mentions a limited civilian edition released by Knight's Armament, which quickly became an NFA collector's item.
