The grip is made of DuPont ST-8018 polymer and holds the steel, 7-round, single-column magazine. The pistol includes a slide hold-open feature which locks the slide in its rearmost position after the last round is fired. The long double-action-only trigger pull provides an additional safety feature. A hammer block safety is incorporated which helps prevent accidental discharge if the pistol is dropped. A transfer bar system connects the hammer and trigger. The frame, which houses the trigger group, consists of a solid machined 7075-T56 aluminum billet. The barrel is manufactured of AISA 4140 steel hardened to 48 RHC, and the slide is constructed of the same steel. Featuring extensive use of computer numerical control (CNC) manufacturing techniques, its six main components consist of the barrel, slide, frame, grip, trigger group, and magazine. The PF-9 is manufactured in Cocoa, Florida, by Kel-Tec CNC Industries. Kel-Tec first announced the PF-9 in February 2006, and the new pistol was released into the market in the fall of 2006. It was designed as a concealment and backup weapon for law enforcement and for civilian concealed carry. Kel-Tec claims the PF-9 is the flattest and lightest 9 mm pistol ever mass-produced. The Kel-Tec PF-9 is a 9 mm caliber, recoil operated, locked breech, double action only, semi-automatic pistol based on (and sharing many parts with) Kel-Tec’s earlier P-11 and P-3AT models.
