The Recover Tactical P-IX+Basic PG9 Metal Front Guard Black (Model PIXPBST01, UPC 7290117420805) is a modular AR-style chassis and stock system that transforms your compatible Glock pistol into a stable, optics-ready, carbine-style platform—without any permanent modifications to the firearm. Built around a glass-reinforced polymer chassis with a metal front guard, the P-IX+Basic PG9 gives you enhanced control, extra rail space for accessories, and AR-like ergonomics ideal for tactical shooting, home defense, and serious range training.
AR-Style Chassis System for Glock Pistols
The P-IX+Basic PG9 Metal Front Guard Stock is part of Recover’s P-IX AR platform for Glock pistols, designed to deliver a familiar AR feel while using your Glock frame and magazines:
AR-style ergonomics with an extended chassis and shoulder stock for improved stability
Compatible with standard AR accessories such as pistol grips and buffer tube–style stocks
Safety selector linkage and adjustable trigger shoe that mimic AR-style operation for more consistent training across platforms
If you run ARs regularly, this chassis makes your Glock-based setup feel natural in the hand, helping you build one set of instincts for both pistol-caliber and rifle-caliber platforms.
Glass-Reinforced Polymer Chassis with Metal Front Guard
Recover Tactical builds the P-IX+Basic around a glass-reinforced polymer body for durability and reduced weight, then upgrades the front end with a metal front guard for added rigidity and accessory support.
High-grade glass-reinforced polymer chassis resists impacts, flex, and harsh use while staying lightweight.
Metal front guard stiffens the forend, adds protection, and provides a rock-solid base for weapon lights or grips.
This hybrid construction gives you a chassis that feels solid and confidence-inspiring, even in high-volume drills or rough field conditions.
Built-In Picatinny Rail System for Optics & Accessories
The P-IX+Basic PG9 Metal Front Guard Stock turns your Glock into a true accessory-ready platform:
Top Picatinny rail for red dots, prism scopes, or LPVOs.
Rail sections on the front guard for attaching weapon lights, lasers, or hand stops, depending on configuration.
This rail space makes it easy to configure the gun as a home-defense carbine-style pistol, a training rig with full optics and illumination, or a compact PCC-style range toy.
PG9 Grip – Ergonomic Control with AR Feel
At the core of the chassis is the PG9 grip, designed to give your Glock a familiar AR-style hand position:
Ergonomic grip profile that mirrors AR-15 grip angles, improving comfort and control during extended shooting.
Textured surfaces for a secure grasp in fast strings and dynamic movement.
The result is a more natural, rifle-like grip that supports better recoil management and smoother tracking between targets.
Integrated Stock for Greater Stability
Unlike basic pistol-only frames, the P-IX+Basic PG9 Metal Front Guard configuration includes a rear stock for shoulder support, dramatically improving stability and control compared to a bare handgun.
Shoulder stock helps you steady your sight picture, especially with optics.
Provides a third point of contact for faster follow-up shots and tighter groups.
This layout is ideal for shooters who want something that feels like a compact carbine but still feeds from Glock magazines and uses a Glock fire control system.
Quick, No-Gunsmith Installation
One of the biggest selling points of the P-IX+Basic PG9 system is its easy, non-permanent install:
Designed for drop-in installation—no cutting, drilling, or permanent frame modifications.
Retailers highlight that it can be installed in just a few minutes, even by non-gunsmiths.
Because the conversion is reversible, you can remove the chassis and return your pistol to its original configuration at any time.
Glock Model Compatibility
The P-IX+Basic PG9 Metal Front Guard Stock is designed to work with a broad range of double-stack Glock pistols. Sources list typical compatibility including:
Glock 17, 19, 19X, 22, 23, 25, 31, 32, and 45 (check the latest fit chart for specific Gen support, especially Gen 5).
Check Recover Tactical’s current compatibility chart to confirm your exact model and generation, but if you run common duty/carry Glocks in 9mm or .40, odds are good this kit will fit.
Ideal for Tactical Shooting, Home Defense & Range Training
According to multiple dealer descriptions, the P-IX+Basic PG9 Metal Front Guard Stock is built for shooters who want more from their Glock platform:
Tactical Shooting & Drills – AR-style ergonomics and a stock make it easier to run fast, controlled strings.
Home Defense – Add a red dot and light for a compact defensive tool with enhanced accuracy and control.
Range Training & PCC Practice – Shoot pistol ammo in a carbine-style format to build skills with less recoil and cost.
The combination of stability, accessory mounting options, and familiar controls makes this chassis highly versatile for modern shooters.
