The 5.56×45mm M9F is a variant designation within the Arsenal semi-automatic rifles range – the export-oriented AK derivative deployed in multiple programs since 2000 – sharing the 415mm barrel, 970mm overall length, single-fire mode, and 3.85kg unloaded weight of the M9.
Available technical documentation does not confirm any physical differences between the M9F and M9 designations; the specification table shows identical dimensions and operating parameters. Both configurations are compatible with 5.56×45mm cartridges, STANAG 30-round magazines, and a 1350m maximum effective range.
Available for institutional procurement by ministries of defence, authorized defence contractors, and licensed importers. Inquiries must include product designation, required quantity, country of final destination, intended end-use declaration, and applicable end-user certificate (EUC) or import authorization.
