Engineered for shooters who demand a rugged, duty-focused platform with rock-solid optic mounting, the Archon Firearms Gen 2 Type B with ACRO cut delivers outstanding stability and performance. This configuration features a black slide, FDE monocoque frame, and an ACRO-ready mounting surface designed specifically for enclosed-emitter optics—ideal for harsh environments, defensive use, and high-round-count training.

Built around Archon’s acclaimed AF-Speedlock® system, the Gen 2 Type B keeps the barrel straight during the entire cycle, allowing the slide to ride lower in the hand. This design greatly reduces muzzle rise, minimizes felt recoil, and offers fast, repeatable shot-to-shot control. Combined with the modular Gen 2 grip system, shooters get a comfortable, adaptive fit suited for extended range sessions or duty carry.

A fiber-optic front sight paired with a serrated rear gives a clean sight picture when running irons, while the flared magwell supports fast reloads under pressure. With three magazines included and no cover plate (ACRO-ready from the start), this Type B variant arrives tuned for shooters who rely on an enclosed red dot for maximum durability and clarity.
