Hudson H9 is a pistol brings together 1911 and striker fire features into one platform and is chambered in 9mm. It has a lowered recoil spring housing to reduce recoil. MSRP is a little high but it should be cheaper when it hits stores.
The barrel is 4.28" but OAL is 7.625 with a width of 1.24". At 34 oz it is ten ounces more than a G19 and three to six ounces less than less than a full size 1911 yet it holds 15+1 rounds, nothing wrong with having a little extra ammo. Trigger is 4.5-5 lbs and the travel is .115".
The grips are from VZ and made of G10, this means there will likely be numerous options for texture and color. The backstrap is from Hogue. Textured frontstrap will improve gripability. A lot of folks will like the blacked out rear sight and a trijicon up front. It also has a UTL rail for those times the chicken coops need clearing (some of you know what I'm talkin bout).
It has a trigger similar to a 1911 but with a trigger safety similar to Glock and other pistols and with no external safety. Before you go getting your undies in a bunch Hudson will offer a trigger just like the 1911 and an external safety to match, that's right it's a modular platform.
I don't know how it will do when it hits the market but hopefully it will have low recoil and be as accurate and reliable as we should expect. I always like it when someone new comes along with such a saturated market with a lot of the same ol thing. I kinda like it.

It's actually almost identical to a Sig 229's specs except it has a longer barrel by 1/4" (but same OAL), and no heavy first round DA pull.

P.S. I wrote to the MFG and they said they have more surprises in store and will release the info "when the time is right". I like the idea of 9mm, but I would speculate that means other calibers and maybe colors. Okay where is the compact single stack version. Lol
Another interesting fact is this is a company owned by a woman. I could be mistaken but I think shes a vet-but don't quote me on that.
It seems like they have satisfied the interest of a large number of shooters. There have been other companies offer pistols that seemed to have "heard the cry" but not with modularity and an alloy frame.
