Ptr Archon AF2B-0090103 Type B 9mm Gen 2 Semi-Automatic Pistol, 15-Round Capacity

The PTR Archon AF2B-0090103 Type B is a 9mm semi-automatic pistol built for shooters who demand both control and adaptability. Gen 2 refines the platform with a modular grip system that lets you dial in your setup—choose from interchangeable grip textures and configure the frame across full-size, compact, and sub-compact dimensions without swapping the entire gun. That flexibility, paired with PTR's AF-Speedlock technology, makes this a genuinely versatile carry and range pistol for serious shooters.

The real standout is the AF-Speedlock locking mechanism. Its low bore axis and patented breech lock keep the barrel straight during the slide cycle, allowing the slide to nest deeper into the grip. The result: measurably less muzzle rise and felt recoil, which translates to faster follow-up shots and tighter shot groups. Whether you're drilling at the range or training for duty, that matters.

Build quality reflects the thought that went into design. You get a steel monocoque frame with a nitride-finished barrel, serrated rear sights, and a fiber optic front sight on standard Glock dovetails—so swaps are dead simple. The trigger is crisp and short-reset. Safety-wise, it's covered with a trigger block, firing pin block, and trigger bar safety. Out of the box you'll have two magazines (15 and 18 rounds), three grip straps, and two grip extenders to dial in your comfort zone.

Weighing 1.85 lbs unloaded and feeding 9x19mm, the Archon Gen 2 Type B handles like a precision tool—compact enough for carry, modular enough to become whatever your shooting demands call for.

Frequently Asked Questions

What magazines come with the Archon Type B?

The Archon Gen 2 Type B includes two magazines: one 15-round and one 18-round. You also get three black grip straps and two grip extenders to customize your fit.

Can I change the grip size on the Archon Type B?

Yes. The modular grip system lets you swap grip textures and reconfigure the frame between full-size, compact, and sub-compact configurations without replacing the entire pistol.

What is AF-Speedlock technology and how does it work?

AF-Speedlock is PTR's patented breech locking mechanism featuring a low bore axis. It keeps the barrel straight during the slide cycle and allows the slide to nest deeper into the grip, which reduces muzzle rise and felt recoil and improves follow-up shot speed.

Are the sights removable or adjustable?

The sights are fixed. Both the serrated rear and fiber optic front sights mount on Glock-standard dovetails, so you can swap them out for aftermarket options if needed.
