In a recent interview at SHOT Show 2024 with Gestamen Arms, a Hungarian-based firearms manufacturer, they introduced their latest creation— the G9HSP pistol designed to meet the unique needs outlined by the Hungarian government.
Additionally, their new firearm has an interesting feature that allows users to switch between striker fire and hammer fire configurations in under a minute.
Responding to a request from the Hungarian government, the Gestamen Arms team took on the challenge to develop a firearm with unprecedented adaptability. The outcome is a pistol that stands out in the market for its swift and straightforward conversion capability.
The highlight of this innovative pistol is its patented replaceable trigger system. This design enables users to effortlessly transition between striker fire and hammer fire modes.
Ultimately offering a level of adaptability not commonly seen in firearms. Additionally, the quick and tool-free conversion process ensures that users can adjust to different shooting preferences or situations with ease.
Designed specifically to meet contractual obligations, Gestamen Arms has come up with something unique. From what I gathered, Hungary wanted the ability to manufacture everything within one factory, and specifically requested this pistol. This is to meet different military and police standards they have in place for striker or hammer fired guns.
Constructed with durability in mind, the pistol features a fiberglass-reinforced polymer frame, providing a robust and proven foundation. The high-degree steel fluted barrel adds to the overall sturdiness and performance of the firearm, promising reliability in various conditions.
In addition to its convertible design, the pistol incorporates a decocker and triplex safety system. This emphases the manufacturer’s commitment to user safety. These additional safety features aim to provide peace of mind for users. They add an extra layer of protection to the already versatile firearm.
While I am not sure how many people need the ability to swap firing mechanisms, Gestamen Arms introduction of the G9HSP convertible pistol certainly raises eyebrows in the firearms industry.
