CMMG Resolute
CMMG Inc. · Rifle · In Production · 2021
Also known as: CMMG Resolute Mk9 9mm, CMMG Resolute Mk17 9mm
Overview
The CMMG Resolute is a 9mm pistol-caliber carbine in CMMG's AR-platform rifle line, built around the company's patented Radial Delayed Blowback operating system. The delayed action uses angled locking lugs that keep the bolt closed until chamber pressure drops to a safe level, allowing a lighter bolt carrier and a noticeably softer recoil impulse than conventional straight-blowback PCCs. Configured as a full-length carbine with a 16.1-inch barrel, an M-LOK free-float handguard, and a complete suite of ZEROED ambidextrous controls, the Resolute targets competition and recreational shooters. Variants are designated by magazine pattern, with the Mk9 feeding Colt SMG-pattern magazines and the Mk17 feeding SIG Sauer P320 magazines.
