Something 9mm This Way Comes — War Sport S9

The last couple years have been kind to the sub-caliber market. We've seen several promising semi-auto subguns hit the market, with rumors of even more on the way. North Carolina-based War Sport has decided to jump into the fray with the new Glock magazine compatible S9. The S9 will be available in a short barreled rifle configuration, as a full-length rifle, and also as a pistol.

Here's what they have to say about it:

War Sport, LLC is excited to announce the debut of their highly anticipated S-9 at the 2016 NRA Annual Meetings in Louisville, Kentucky. The War Sport S-9 is a 9mm carbine that is built on the AR platform and utilizes the popular Glock magazines.

“It’s been an phenomenal year thus far for us at War Sport and with the upcoming release of the S-9 we couldn’t be more excited!” says President of War Sport, Pat Forbis. “Our customers have been asking for a 9mm and we have answered back with a product made with the same quality and precision our customers have come to expect from us.”

Specifications include:

• 8 ¾” barrel, melonited, ½-28 thread (16″ melonited for the full-length rifle)
• Chambered in 9mm
• Glock magazine compatible
• BAD short throw selector
• ALG defense trigger
• Magpul MOE grip and trigger guard
• Magpul MBUS Pro sights
• War Sport PDW rail
• War Sport GP-S compensator

The short barreled PDW model will feature a Battle Arms Development VERT stock system. For those not willing or able to jump through the NFA hoops, the pistol version has a KAK Shockwave Blade arm brace, and the full-length rifle model sports a Magpul SL-K stock.

War Sport will be displaying the S9 along with their other wares at this years NRA Annual Meeting in Louisville, KY. They'll be in booth 4253, but if you're not going to make it this year, you can visit War Sport online here.
