One look says a lot: this handgun does things differently.<\/p>\n<p>The H9 has seven patents to its name, all towards one goal. Hudson wanted to create a striker-fired service pistol with modern features, built around a 1911-style single-action trigger. The result is a modern double-stack service pistol chambered for 9mm Luger with the time-tested ergonomics of a 1911.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s a lot of interesting things going on with the H9. It has a very low bore axis and full beavertail grip. That indicates that the H9 will have less felt recoil when shooting rapid strings of fire. That should be easy with a 1911-style trigger set at 4.5 to 5 pounds.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_67857\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-67857\" alt=\"The Hudson H9 Pistol: Half 1911, Half Glock... the Future of Handguns is Here!\" title=\"The Hudson H9 Pistol: Half 1911, Half Glock... the Future of Handguns is Here!\" class=\"wp-image-67857\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/hudson-h9-diagram-specifications.png\" width=\"400\" height=\"365\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/hudson-h9-diagram-specifications.png 1044w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/hudson-h9-diagram-specifications-150x137.png 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/hudson-h9-diagram-specifications-329x300.png 329w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/hudson-h9-diagram-specifications-768x701.png 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/hudson-h9-diagram-specifications-1024x935.png 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-67857\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The H9 is interesting enough on paper, we can&#8217;t wait to try them in person. <em>(Photo: Hudson)<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>In order to achieve this low bore axis, Hudson moved the takedown pin and recoil assembly down in front of the trigger guard. This definitely gives the H9 a distinct, futuristic profile.<\/p>\n<p>The trigger is a modular design. It uses a trigger safety like most striker-fired pistols but it can be modified to use a manual safety or safeties. Users can install left- or right-side manual safeties or both for ambidextrous use. The pistol has ambidextrous slide release levers and a reversible mag release, too.<\/p>\n<p>The rest of the on-paper specs look good for the H9. It measures in at 5.2 inches tall and 7.6 inches long with a 4.3-inch barrel. It&#8217;s just 1.24 inches wide. That puts the H9 in line with the bulk of mid-size service pistols &#8212; big enough to handle most tasks and still concealable.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to alloy-framed handguns it&#8217;s weight is average. The pistol weighs 34 ounces unloaded. Standard magazine capacity for the H9 is 15+1, right there with other medium-sized handguns.<\/p>\n<h2>See Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/new-smith-wesson-mp-m2-0-making-great-pistol-even-better-hands-review\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"the-hudson-h9-rethinking-handgun-design\" title=\"The Hudson H9 Pistol: Half 1911, Half Glock... the Future of Handguns is Here!\">The New Smith &amp; Wesson M&amp;P M2.0<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The slide is cut with recessed slide serrations front and rear for easy manipulation.
