Foxtrot Mike Products, a trusted innovator in the PCC market for over 8 years, has built a reputation for delivering high-quality, reliable, and feature-rich products, supported by outstanding customer service. Recognizing the challenges faced by hardworking blue-collar consumers with reduceddiscretionary income, Foxtrot Mike has introduced the VFM-9, a new line of 9mm Upper Receivers that combines the same superior quality, durability, and innovation customers expect, at a more accessible price point.The VFM-9 is the clear choice for consumers seeking exceptional value without compromising performance. By eliminating the complex barrel nut and implementing a thermal fit between the barrel and the upper, Foxtrot Mike has reduced manufacturing costs while maintaining their commitment to excellence. The VFM-9 features a robust 4140 steel barrel, offering impressive accuracy and a service life exceeding 10,000 rounds. While slightly different from the premium 41V50 steel used in the flagship Mike-9, the 4140 steel still delivers outstanding performance for a PCC build.Additionally, if a consumer ever shoots out their barrel, Foxtrot Mike offers a replacement for just $99, further reinforcing their dedication to customer satisfaction.The VFM-9 comes with a 5.2" barrel with a 1/2-28 thread and benefits from streamlined assembly processes, including a reduction in handguard screws from eight to two, resulting in greater production efficiency and cost savings-savings that are passed directly to the consumer. While someparts of the VFM-9 are proprietary (with the bolt and muzzle device being interchangeable), this upper is backed by Foxtrot Mike's renowned lifetime warranty, ensuring peace of mind for every purchase.For those who still desire the premium materials and modular design of the flagship Mike-9, Foxtrot Mike continues to offer this product line alongside the new VFM-9. However, for value-conscious buyers, the VFM-9 stands out as an unbeatable option, delivering top-tier performance, precision, andreliability at a fraction of the cost of competing products. The VFM-9 is offered in two versions, one with a Forward Charging Handle (all metal charginghandle and trolley) as well as a Front and Rear Charging version, a great option for people with training on an AR-style manual of arms.
