Citadel CP9 Compact 9mm Pistol 14+1 4" Barrel OD Green Frame

The Citadel CP9 Compact delivers full-size performance in a concealable package, featuring a 4-inch barrel and 14+1 capacity for serious defensive applications. This striker-fired pistol combines proven reliability with modern features like optics readiness and aggressive slide serrations.

What Makes This Different

The CP9 Compact bridges the gap between subcompact carry guns and full-size duty pistols with its optimized 4-inch barrel length. The optics-ready slide accepts popular red dot sights without requiring custom machining, while the serrated steel slide provides positive manipulation in adverse conditions. At 14+1 capacity, it matches many full-size pistols while maintaining a more concealable profile.

Key Features

• Striker-fired action with consistent 5.5-6 lb trigger pull
• Optics-ready slide cut compatible with popular micro red dots
• 14-round magazine capacity plus one in chamber
• 4-inch black steel barrel with 1:10 twist rate
• OD Green polymer frame with textured grip panels
• Serrated steel slide for enhanced grip during manipulation
• Standard Picatinny rail for lights and lasers

The CP9 Compact performs reliably with standard 9mm ammunition from 115 to 147 grains, making it suitable for range training, competition, and defensive carry. The polymer frame reduces overall weight to approximately 25 ounces unloaded while maintaining structural integrity through thousands of rounds. Accuracy testing typically produces 3-4 inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition.
