The Nox 9 marks the next chapter in Jacob Grey’s handgun lineup. More than 12 years in the making, “Jacob” left no stone unturned, leveraging advanced equipment to finally bring to life a design that’s been in his head for years. By combining their aerospace heritage with deep 1911 experience, Jacob Grey Firearms has positioned itself to build something truly different. With millions invested in the world’s most advanced CNC equipment, every pistol is produced to exact tolerances — down to the micron — ensuring a slide-to-frame fit and consistency that eliminates the need for hand fitting or filing. The result is production that runs like a streamlined work of art.

Our goal is to disrupt the space with new standards, higher expectations, and a firearm priced according to real numbers,” said Todd Neice, President of Jacob Grey Firearms. “We’ve invested heavily in automation and technology that allow us to manufacture with aerospace-level precision and without shortcuts. The result is the Nox 9: superior consistency, performance, and craftsmanship.”

The Nox 9 is well designed and has a multitude of features. The pistol features a 5-inch ported slide and integrally compensated barrel for reduced recoil and flatter shooting. It is fully CNC machined from a billet of 4140 pre-hardened steel. They then use a DLC coating for improved slide-to-frame fit and longevity compared to aluminum frames.

Innovative Grip Module
The gun also features an innovative grip module designed to allow your hand to rest perfectly on the backstrap, providing a high grip for complete control. Jacob Grey has included Armored Billet ignition components, including the hammer, sear, disconnector, oversized mag release, and safety levers. These are all CNC-machined from tool steel and coated with DLC/PVD.
