Description
Description — Handgun
The Modular Handgun System (MHS) supports the Army Modernization priorities (Build a More Lethal Force) through enhancement of Joint Lethality in contested environments by minimizing and eliminating erosion of close combat capability relative to peer competitors in complex terrain as outlined in the National Defense Strategy (NDS). Currently, the M9 Semi-Automatic Pistol, which has been utilized as the Department of Defense's personal defense weapon since 1985, is being replaced by the new M17 Full Size Modular Handgun. The M18 Compact Size Modular Handgun replaces M11 Handguns. The Modular Handgun System is a Commercial Off the Shelf/ Non-Developmental Item (COTS/NDI) which delivers a more capable system (weapon, ammo and magazines) consistent with the planned force structure and emerging operational needs of the Army. The Modular Handgun System addresses M9 Pistol and M11 Pistol shortcomings with improved lethality, target acquisition, ergonomics, reliability, durability, and maintainability. The Modular Handgun System is ambidextrous capable and accommodates 5th-95th percentile users via modular grips and access to all controls with one hand.
