The Griffin Armament MK2 PSD Pistol in .223 Wylde is a short, ambidextrous AR pistol with a 9.5-inch 416R stainless steel barrel (brand part no. MK2PSD223W95P-W). Griffin Armament builds the PSD on its MK2 lower, which is machined to sub-mil-spec tolerances and mirrors every control for either hand. A tuned pistol-length gas system and the suppressor-optimized buffer keep the pistol soft and reliable suppressed or unsuppressed. It comes ready to run with the SBA3 pistol brace, an A3 grip and a Griffin silencer mount muzzle device. The 9.5-inch barrel and 26-inch collapsed length make this the more compact of the two .223 Wylde MK2 pistols, a good fit for personal-defense setups where size matters most.

Key Specifications

• Chambering is .223 Wylde, a hybrid chamber that accepts both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition.
• Barrel length is 9.5 inches, a short tube that keeps the pistol compact and easy to maneuver.
• The barrel is Griffin 416R stainless steel, chosen for accuracy and for durability under sustained suppressed fire.
• The gas system is a tuned pistol-length design, matched to the short barrel for soft, reliable cycling.
• The buffer system is the Griffin AR-SOB suppressor-optimized buffer, which manages the extra gas pressure a suppressor creates.
• The pistol ships with the SBA3 pistol brace, installed by Griffin on a Maritime receiver extension.
• The muzzle device is the Griffin silencer mount, a mount that accepts Griffin suppressors directly.
• The receivers are forged and finished in Type 3 hardcoat anodizing, a coating that resists wear and corrosion.
• The controls are fully ambidextrous, including the magazine release, bolt release and catch, and safety selector.
• Weight is 5 pounds 13.4 ounces, and overall collapsed length is 26 inches, which keeps the pistol light in the hands.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which chamber does this pistol use? It is chambered in .223 Wylde, a hybrid chamber that handles both .223 Remington and 5.56 NATO ammunition.

How is the PSD different from the MK2 CQB? The PSD has a 9.5-inch barrel and a tuned pistol-length gas system and measures 26 inches collapsed. The MK2 CQB steps up to an 11.5-inch barrel with a carbine-length gas system and runs 28 inches collapsed.

Can this pistol run with a suppressor? Yes. Griffin tunes the gas system and fits its suppressor-optimized buffer so the pistol runs cleanly suppressed or unsuppressed, and the Griffin silencer mount muzzle device is already installed.
