In an exciting collaboration, Ruger and Magpul have unveiled the RXM 9mm pistol—a feature-rich, modular handgun designed to stand out in the crowded polymer-frame striker-fired market. Combining Ruger’s precision firearm manufacturing expertise with Magpul’s industry-leading accessory innovation, the RXM delivers superior functionality, customization, and value.
Key Features of the RXM™
The RXM’s standout feature is its removable stainless steel Fire Control Insert (FCI), housed within the Magpul Enhanced Handgun Grip (EHG). This modular design allows shooters to swap grip frames, offering unparalleled flexibility to adapt the pistol to their needs. Magpul plans to release additional grip frames, enabling endless customization options.
Ergonomic and Practical Design
- Stealth Gray Magpul EHG: The enhanced grip frame includes Magpul’s signature 3/4-scale TSP texture, ensuring a secure and comfortable hold. Features like a low-profile flared magwell, textured indexing pads, and a trigger guard undercut support intuitive handling and control.
- Accessory Compatibility: Designed to use 9mm magazines compatible with compact and larger double-stack Glock pistols, including Magpul GL9 magazines. The RXM also accommodates most Glock Gen 3 aftermarket parts, holsters, and accessories.
Precision-Built Slide and Barrel
The slide features a durable black FNC nitride finish and is optic-ready, supporting RMR, Delta Point Pro (DPP), and RMSc pattern optics. Co-witness height steel sights with a tritium front sight provide a clear sight picture, day or night, with or without an optic.
Other notable elements include front cocking serrations and a precision-rifled barrel, ensuring excellent accuracy and reliability.
Designed for the Modern Shooter
The RXM features a flat-faced trigger for a crisp pull, alongside an ergonomic magazine release, slide release, and takedown lever for seamless operation. The universal accessory rail under the barrel supports a variety of lights and lasers.
Ruger and Magpul emphasize the RXM’s versatility, describing it as a pistol that empowers shooters to “add the best features.”
Pricing and Models
Available in two configurations:
- Model 19400: 15+1 capacity
- Model 19401: 10+1 capacity (for capacity-restricted states)
Both models include two Magpul GL9 magazines, feature a 4-inch barrel, and share a competitive MSRP of $499.00.
A Collaboration Rooted in Excellence
Chris Killoy, Ruger’s President and CEO, highlighted the synergy of the collaboration:
“The RXM is the result of a tremendous collaboration between two of the most respected brands in the industry. Loaded with upgraded features, superior ergonomics, and at a price that leaves room for further customization, this American-made handgun is destined to become the best in its class.”
Duane Liptak, Executive Vice President of Magpul, echoed this sentiment:
