BRG9 FDX Subcompact Threaded Barrel Optic-Ready 9mm Pistol
If you do not see your preferred FFL pickup location listed, please email us the name of the FFL and the city and state where it is located. We will contact the dealer directly to arrange shipping.
The BRG9 FDX is the suppressor-ready evolution of the BRG9 FD — a subcompact 9mm striker-fired pistol with a factory-threaded barrel, optic-cut slide, ambidextrous controls, and 13+1 capacity. Built by BRG Defense and imported exclusively by Universal Imports Inc. (CalibrexArms), the FDX gives suppressor owners and muzzle-device users a compact carry platform that doesn't sacrifice optic mounting or controls to gain a threaded barrel.
Who the BRG9 FDX is for
The BRG9 FDX targets shooters who want subcompact carry plus the option to run a suppressor or compensator. Most factory-threaded compact 9mms either drop optic compatibility or add significant length and weight. The FDX stays at 6.94" overall and 21.87 oz unloaded while shipping with a factory thread pattern and rear optic cut — a host pistol for suppressor + red-dot setups in a carry-class envelope.
What makes the BRG9 FDX different
The FDX combines four features that rarely appear together at this price point. First, the barrel is factory-threaded for muzzle accessories — suppressors, compensators, and brakes. Second, the slide is factory-cut for a micro red-dot. Third, both the slide stop and magazine release are fully ambidextrous. Fourth, BRG Defense's patented disassembly system releases the slide without requiring a trigger pull, a safety win for daily takedown and cleaning. The barrel and slide are forged steel, rated for approximately 100,000 and 25,000 rounds respectively, with three independent safeties (firing-pin block, trigger safety, grip safety) and loaded-chamber plus striker-status indicators.

FFL transfer, shipping, and warranty
This is a firearm — it ships from CalibrexArms to your selected FFL dealer, who handles the final transfer to you under federal and state law. Choose your dealer at checkout. Transfer fees are set by the FFL dealer (typically $25–$50). The BRG9 FDX is covered by a limited lifetime warranty for the original purchaser against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. Normal wear, misuse, reloaded-ammunition damage, and modifications are not covered.
State restrictions
Because the BRG9 FDX features a factory-threaded barrel, it cannot be shipped to California, Massachusetts, District of Columbia, New York, Connecticut, Washington, or Hawaii. Magazine capacity may be further reduced for additional states with magazine-capacity limits (NJ, CO, MD, VT, IL/Cook County, OR). Verify your state's compliance before ordering.

and side-by-side comparison with the FDX, see our BRG9 FD & FDX guide.
Frequently asked questions
What thread pattern does the BRG9 FDX use?
The BRG9 FDX ships with a factory-threaded muzzle in the standard 1/2x28 thread pitch used by most 9mm suppressors and compensators on the US market. Confirm thread pitch on the spec sheet that ships with the pistol before mounting a device.
Which red-dot optics fit the BRG9 FDX?
The FDX ships with a factory rear optic cut that accepts common micro red-dot footprints. Confirm your specific dot model and torque spec before mounting. Mounting plates are sold separately or available with the Gen2 line.
What's the difference between the BRG9 FD and the BRG9 FDX?
The FD and FDX share the same compact frame, 13+1 capacity, optic-ready slide, and ambidextrous controls. The FDX adds a factory-threaded barrel that adds 0.32" to the barrel length and 0.66" to the overall length. If you plan to mount a suppressor or compensator, choose the FDX. For standard CCW use, the FD is lighter, shorter, and has fewer state restrictions.
Does the BRG9 FDX ship to my state?
The BRG9 FDX ships to FFL dealers in 43 states. It cannot be shipped to California, Massachusetts, District of Columbia, New York, Connecticut, Washington, or Hawaii because of threaded-barrel restrictions in those jurisdictions. In states with magazine-capacity restrictions, the pistol ships with reduced-capacity magazines compliant with state law.
Do I need a suppressor to use the BRG9 FDX?
No. The BRG9 FDX functions as a standard compact 9mm pistol without any muzzle device attached. The thread protector ships installed; remove it only when mounting an approved suppressor or muzzle accessory.
What's covered by the warranty?
The BRG9 FDX carries a limited lifetime warranty to the original purchaser against defects in materials and workmanship under normal use. Normal wear, reloaded-ammunition damage, and unauthorized modifications are excluded.
