The Rost Martin RM1C 9mm Luger semi-automatic pistol, anticipated by high Internet fanfare in the weeks before the event, makes its debut on the international markets at the 2024 edition of SHOT Show. Entirely manufactured in Texas, the RM1C is a striker-fired design conceived primarily for concealed carry and personal, home, and property defense.

A compact design featuring a 4-inch hammer-forged barrel and feeding through flush-fit 15+1 rounds or extended 17+1 rounds CZ P10C magazines, the Rost Martin RM1C is compatible with Springfield XD sights and comes with an optics-ready machined interface on the slide, shipping with an RMR footprint, while plates for all other popular optic footprints will be available. Other features include aggressive front and rear slide serrations, ambidextrous surface controls including slide catch and mag release, and a smooth, light 5-pound trigger pull with a clean break and a short reset.

Slightly more compact than the gold standard for the category – represented by the Glock 19 – the Rost Martin RM1C will be available with a grey, FDE, or black railed polymer frame with a highly ergonomic grip design.

MSRP for the Rost Martin RM1C is set at $459.00 on the US market.
