Trouble is unpredictable. It shows up without warning. It rears its ugly head when and where you least expect it. Trouble has no conscience. No regrets. No remorse. So be prepared. And be protected. Introducing the MC1sc Subcompact 9mm Pistol by Mossberg.

Combining optimal ability to shoot with superior ergonomics, the MC1sc features an optimized grip angle for easier targeting, a flat-profile trigger for an improved pull, and our exclusive Safe Takedown System™: a design that does not require the user to pull the trigger during the disassembly process. The MC1sc Subcompact 9mm Pistol. Be ready to strike back.

MC1SC FEATURES

Superior Ergonomics

Natural and comfortable in your hand thanks to the grip palm swell. Grip panels are integrated with aggressive texturing for added control for a confident, firm grip under a variety of conditions.

Flat-Profile Trigger

The MC1sc trigger (approx. 6 lbs pull) has an integrated blade safety, a short, tactile reset, and reduced overtravel. It features a crisp, clean break and smooth take-up, which means less hand movement for a truer, more accurate shot.

Snag-Free Dovetail Sights

Standard snag-free dovetail white three-dot sights (Sig #8 compatible) offer easier target acquisition and quicker draw. TRUGLO® Tritium PRO™ sights are also available as a factory option.

VIRIDIAN Laser Equipped Model: 89004

A tiny laser sight tucks neatly between the trigger guard and muzzle, with no overhang. You can turn your laser on with a push of a button when you draw the weapon.

Clear-Count™ Polymer Magazines

Each MC1sc ships with a flush-fit 6-round and an extended 7-round magazine. Clear-Count magazines feature easy-to-remove floor plates, and high-visibility followers made out of a lubricious polymer compound. All models have a reversible magazine release.

MC1SC SAFE TAKEDOWN SYSTEM™

The MC1sc is equipped with our Safe Takedown System. It requires the user to make the handgun safe by removing the striker assembly before removing the slide. The user is not required to pull the trigger in order to disassemble the handgun for cleaning and maintenance.

1. Remove the magazine and lock open and clear the action. Push the slide cover plate button* and slide it down. 2. Once the slide cover plate is removed, the orange end of the striker assembly will be visible.
3. Close the action by pulling the slide fully rearward and releasing it gently. This will allow the slide to push out the striker assembly. 4. The striker assembly is safely removed from the pistol without ever pulling the trigger. The slide is then pushed forward towards the muzzle, and removed off of the frame.
