Archon Firearms is a premium pistol manufacturer focused on performance, reliability, and customization. Founded in 2012 by designers, shooters, and industry professionals, the company developed its proprietary AF-Speedlock® system, which allows the barrel to move straight back rather than tilt during firing. Archon says this design, combined with a low bore axis, helps manage recoil and muzzle rise and supports accuracy and faster follow-up shots.

Its product line includes the full-size Type A and the Type B and compact Type D models. The pistols are striker-fired, chambered in 9×19, and feature steel components with nitride finishes. Depending on the model, customers can choose configurations ready for optics, suppressors, or both, along with interchangeable grip options on select models. Archon also highlights features such as short-reset triggers, Picatinny rails, and multiple magazine capacities.

The company emphasizes in-house manufacturing and a shooter-focused design process informed by collaboration with professional shooters. Its website offers product shopping, technical specifications, news, a dealer locator, warranty information, and frequently asked questions.
