KRYTAC SilencerCo Maxim 9 Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol - Black

The KRYTAC SilencerCo Maxim 9 Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol isn’t just another quirky sidearm – it’s a licensed homage to one of the most distinctive suppressed handguns in firearms history, designed with serious gameplay in mind. Officially licensed by SilencerCo and carrying authentic trademarks, this GBB pistol is built for players who want the sleek, integrally-suppressed aesthetic without tacking on extra bulk. If you’re hunting for a reliable, head-turning suppressed airsoft pistol that actually performs beyond its looks, this is it.

The first thing that hits you is the silhouette — instantly recognisable and sleek, with an extended shroud housing a tightbore barrel and tracer-ready internal threading. That 12mm CW female threading is hidden behind the suppressor shroud, letting you run micro tracers or adapter kits without compromising the clean profile. Krytac made the shroud disassemblable via two simple screws, giving tinkerers and modders something to really sink their teeth into. You get the stealthy look of an integrally suppressed pistol, with all the flexibility of a modular platform.

The internals back up the looks with performance. A 6.05mm tightbore inner barrel ensures tight groupings, and with the right BB weight (think 0.28g or heavier), it delivers surprising consistency at medium range. The gas blowback system is sharp and responsive thanks to Krytac’s unique split-style slide design, which significantly boosts cyclic rate while improving gas efficiency. It’s a brisk shooter, with a blowback kick that feels snappy but controlled, ideal for CQB and fast-paced sidearm engagements.

Functionality is cleverly woven into the design. The fire selector — tucked under the slide and only accessible with it locked back — gives you a “fun switch” to swap between semi and full-auto. It’s subtle, mirroring the minimalist control philosophy of the real steel Maxim 9. Combined with a gear-style adjustable hop-up and compatibility with aftermarket buckings, it’s easy to fine-tune for your local field or playstyle.

Ergonomics are dialled in. Linear stippling across the backstrap and sides of the polymer frame offer solid grip without chewing up your hands, while the slightly textured front gives you a perfect index point. The enlarged magazine release is easy to hit deliberately but won’t catch on your kit. Ambidextrous slide stops and aggressive serrations round out a control setup that’s glove-friendly and quick to master.

On the field, this isn’t just a backup. It’s an airsoft pistol that feels more like a primary. With its fast cycling, solid gas efficiency, and distinctive role as a suppressed platform, the Maxim 9 plays differently. It’s ideal for sneaky CQB players, VIP-style loadouts, or anyone who wants a functional conversation piece. Plus, the Krytac aluminium magazine holds 24 rounds and locks in with a satisfying snap, making reloads slick and reliable.

Accessory support is already solid, with KeyMod slots under the shroud for lights or lasers and rear mounting holes for a red dot. While the optic footprint isn’t confirmed yet, it’s clearly built with modern pistol red-dot setups in mind. Krytac has plans for a full suite of extras too – including a dedicated tracer, holster, and even a rail adapter to take it from stealthy to full tactical loadout in seconds.

It’s not flawless – you’ll see wear on the slide lock, and the shrouded design can mean extra maintenance steps. But those are fair trade-offs for a unique pistol that handles like a serious tool and brings something genuinely new to the table. If you’re looking for something that stands out but doesn’t let you down, the Maxim 9 is one of the most innovative and practical GBB options currently available.
