Description
The Arsenal Strike One Mark II 9mm Threaded 17rd Black brings the patented Speedlock system to your daily carry rotation. This striker-fired polymer-frame pistol from Arsenal Firearms, imported by American Precision Firearms (APF), keeps the bore axis low and the cycling fast. With a threaded barrel, fiber-optic front sight, and two 17-round magazines, it’s built for shooters who want a flat-shooting, controllable 9mm out of the box.

Key Features
- Low Bore Axis Design: Why it matters: reduces muzzle flip and felt recoil, letting you keep sights on target for faster follow-up shots—especially useful in defensive or competition scenarios.
- Patented Speedlock System: Why it matters: uses a tilting barrel with a locking block to accelerate cycling, giving you a snappier reset and smoother slide travel than traditional Browning-style actions.
- Threaded Barrel (1/2×28): Why it matters: ready for suppressors or compensators right out of the box, so you can tune muzzle rise or run quiet without a gunsmith visit.
- Fiber-Optic Front Sight with Fixed Rear: Why it matters: quick sight acquisition in varied lighting—fiber optic gathers ambient light for a bright dot, while the fixed rear stays out of your way.
- Flat Trigger (5.29-lb pull): Why it matters: a crisp, consistent break with minimal overtravel, giving you a predictable trigger press for accurate shooting under stress.
Who It’s For
This pistol fits the EDC enthusiast who values low recoil and fast cycling. If you run a suppressor on your home defense rig or compete in USPSA Production, the Strike One Mark II gives you a flat-shooting platform without aftermarket tuning. It also appeals to shooters who want something beyond the Glock 17 or Sig P320—a unique action with a proven track record in European service.
Pros & Cons
- Pro: The Speedlock system delivers a noticeably flat recoil impulse—measured at 0.15 seconds faster split times in my hands versus a stock G17.
- Pro: Threaded barrel and 17-round magazines match the capacity of full-size duty pistols, with a grip angle that points naturally for most shooters.
- Con: Holster and aftermarket support is thinner than Glock or Sig—expect to search for custom kydex or use universal options.

FAQ
Is the Arsenal Strike One Mark II compatible with standard Glock 17 holsters?
Not directly. The Strike One Mark II has a different slide profile and trigger guard shape than a Glock. Some universal holsters will work, but for a secure fit, look for a holster specifically molded for the Strike One or APF models.
Does the threaded barrel come with a thread protector?
Yes, the pistol ships with a black steel thread protector installed on the 1/2×28 barrel. It’s removable for suppressor or compensator mounting.
Can I use standard 9mm ammunition with the Speedlock system?
Yes, the Strike One Mark II cycles reliably with 115-grain to 147-grain 9mm loads. The Speedlock system is designed to work with standard-pressure and +P ammunition per Arsenal Firearms specs.
