IWI Jericho 941 F9 ORP Full Size, 9mm, 4.4" Barrel, 17 Rounds, Optics Ready, Black, Steel Frame DA/SA PistolThe IWI Jericho 941 F9 ORP (part number J941F9ORP) is the optics-ready, full-size version of one of the longest-running steel-frame 9mm pistols on the market. First introduced in the United States in 1990 and based on the highly regarded CZ-75 short recoil system, the Jericho 941 has earned a reputation as a pistol that is built like a tank. The F ORP model keeps that rugged heart and adds a modern feature set: an optics-ready slide, a redesigned grip, an enlarged reversible magazine release and a frame-mounted ambidextrous safety.This model pairs an all-steel frame with a monobloc slide and a 4.4 inch button-rifled, nitrided barrel with a 1:10 right-hand twist. It runs a double-action/single-action trigger, measures 8.2 inches overall and weighs 38.6 ounces without a magazine. That weight is a big part of the appeal. It soaks up recoil, keeps the muzzle flat and makes fast, controlled follow-up shots feel easy, whether you are working drills at the range, shooting a match or keeping a full-size pistol at home. It ships with two 17-round magazines.SpecificationsManufacturerIWI USModelJericho 941 F9 ORP (Full Size Steel Frame Optics Ready)Part NumberJ941F9ORPUPC818004022962Caliber9mm (9x19mm)ActionDA/SA, short recoilBarrel Length4.4 in.BarrelButton rifled, nitridedRifling1:10 RHOverall Length8.2 in.Weight38.6 oz without magazineCapacity17+1Magazines Included2 x 17 roundsFrame / SlideAll-steel frame, monobloc slideSightsCo-witness height CZ-75 pattern iron sightsOptics PlatesRMR and DPP patterns includedSafetyFrame-mounted ambidextrous, enlarged left sideAccessory RailPicatinny 1913FinishBlackRedesigned Optics-Ready SlideThe biggest change on the F ORP is the slide. It is cut for a red dot and comes with two optics plates, one in the RMR pattern and one in the DPP (DeltaPoint Pro) pattern, so you can mount a wide range of popular pistol optics without hunting for an aftermarket adapter. Each plate has a built-in, co-witness height fixed rear iron sight, which means your irons stay usable through the window of the optic as a backup. When no optic is mounted, the cover plate carries a windage-adjustable rear sight. The slide also adds forward serrations for press checks and manipulation, and the recoil spring assembly is captured to make takedown and reassembly simpler. A red dot is not included.New Frame FeaturesIWI reworked the frame to match the new slide. The grip profile has been redesigned with more aggressive texture on the front and back straps for a steadier hold with wet or gloved hands. The magazine release is enlarged, reversible and has an adjustable pad angle, so you can set it up for how your thumb naturally reaches it. Note that reversing the magazine catch requires careful disassembly and should be handled by a qualified pistol armorer. The frame-mounted ambidextrous safety, with an enlarged left side lever, lets you carry the pistol cocked and locked in single action or hammer down for a double-action first shot. A Picatinny 1913 rail under the dust cover accepts weapon lights and lasers, and the frame is compatible with aftermarket grip scales so you can tune the feel of the gun.Steel Frame, Soft RecoilAt 38.6 ounces before the magazine goes in, the Jericho 941 F9 ORP has the mass to settle quickly between shots. Combined with the CZ-75 style short recoil system, it is a pistol that many shooters find easier to shoot accurately and quickly than lighter guns. Nearly all of the internals are the same proven parts used in earlier generations of the Jericho 941, so you get a modern feature set on top of a design with decades of service behind it.Premium AccuracyThe 4.4 inch barrel is button rifled and nitrided for consistent accuracy and durability, with a 1:10 right-hand twist. The iron sights follow the CZ-75 and Shadow pattern, which opens up a broad selection of replacement sights if you want to customize your sight picture. Add a quality red dot from our red dot and holographic sights and the F9 ORP becomes a very capable competition, training or home defense pistol.In the BoxIWI Jericho 941 F9 ORP pistol, 9mm, 4.4 in. barrelTwo 17-round magazinesRMR pattern optics plate and DPP pattern optics plateCover plate with windage-adjustable rear sightRed dot not includedWho It Is ForThe Jericho 941 F9 ORP is a strong pick for shooters who like the handling of a CZ-75 style pistol and want an all-steel gun that is ready for a red dot out of the box.
