Hudson H9

However, those who were (un)fortunate enough to get in on the Hudson H9 have witnessed the collapse of the company in recent months. They’ve paid for a gun for which they can no longer get service or repair. It’s not often that a business of that size leaves consumers high and dry without a paddle, but it does happen from time to time.

The Hudson H9 is a steel-framed 9x19mm handgun manufactured by Hudson Manufacturing of Temple, Texas. It is an M1911-based design, albeit striker-fired rather than the standard hammer setup, and with a rather interesting system wherein the barrel and recoil spring are set far lower than on a typical handgun, which (in combination with the aforementioned striker-fired operation) allows for a lower-than-typical bore axis, and a corresponding reduction in muzzle flip; this is also why the pistol's dustcover is level with the bottom of the trigger guard. All this, coupled with some other enticing features (configurable safety setups, ambidextrous controls, illuminated 3-dot sights, etc.) made the pistol quite promising; however, the announcement of an aluminum-framed variant known as the H9A before it was actually ready for mass-production drew away many prospective buyers, forcing Hudson to file for bankruptcy in March 2019.
