The Fail Zero AR9 9mm Bolt Carrier Group (brand part number FZ 9MM BCG BLKNIT) is a complete, fully assembled carrier built to drop into most 9mm AR-platform rifles and pistols. Fail Zero machines the carrier from 8620 steel and heat-treats it to the same specification as mil-spec 5.56 carriers, then finishes every surface in a Black Nitride salt bath treatment for corrosion and wear resistance. The group is compatible with both Glock- and Colt-pattern magazine wells, so it works across the two most common 9mm AR lower designs, and it ships with a staked carrier guide, 5.56 extractor, and chrome firing pin already installed.
