Compact, lightweight pistols that bridge the gap between a range toy and a service-grade platform are rare. For shooters who want a versatile 9mm option that handles inexpensive ammunition well while offering tactical features, this model delivers balance, reliability, and modularity.

BRUGGER & THOMET GHM9 GEN 2 COMPACT 9MM

Design and key features

The BRUGGER & THOMET GHM9 GEN 2 COMPACT 9MM pairs a modern ergonomic chassis with mission-oriented features. It ships with a 4″ cold hammer forged barrel finished in black and wound to a 1:10″ twist for consistent 9mm stabilization. The closed bolt blow back design enhances shot-to-shot consistency, and a 1/2×28 thread pitch on the muzzle provides direct compatibility with common suppressors and thread-on accessories.

Controls and sights

Low-profile, removable polymer flip up back up iron sights give a clean sight picture with the option to remove them for optics. The package accepts a 30-round magazine, making it a solid choice for extended target sessions and tactical drills.

Performance on the range

Chambered in 9mm, the BRUGGER & THOMET GHM9 GEN 2 COMPACT 9MM leverages the cartridge’s low recoil and abundant, inexpensive ammunition to deliver high-volume training capability. The cold hammer forged barrel improves barrel life and accuracy, especially when running many rounds of range-grade ammunition. The closed bolt operation tends to be more consistent for precision than open-bolt blowback alternatives, which benefits grouped fire and follow-up accuracy.

At a retail price of $1,721.99, this pistol sits in a niche for shooters seeking MP5-like ergonomics and compact size without the exact platform. It’s also a candidate for those considering SBR conversion and ATF registration due to its short configuration and compatibility with SBR setups.
