<p>Foxtrot Mike Products, a trusted innovator in the PCC market for over 8 years, has built a reputation for delivering high-quality, reliable, and feature-rich products, supported by outstanding customer service. Recognizing the challenges faced by hardworking blue-collar consumers with reduced<br />discretionary income, Foxtrot Mike has introduced the VFM-9, a new line of 9mm Upper Receivers that combines the same superior quality, durability, and innovation customers expect, at a more accessible price point.<br /><br />The VFM-9 is the clear choice for consumers seeking exceptional value without compromising performance. By eliminating the complex barrel nut and implementing a thermal fit between the barrel and the upper, Foxtrot Mike has reduced manufacturing costs while maintaining their commitment to excellence. The VFM-9 features a robust 4140 steel barrel, offering impressive accuracy and a service life exceeding 10,000 rounds. While slightly different from the premium 41V50 steel used in the flagship Mike-9, the 4140 steel still delivers outstanding performance for a PCC build. Additionally, if a consumer ever shoots out their barrel, Foxtrot Mike offers a replacement for just $99, further reinforcing their dedication to customer satisfaction.<br /><br />The VFM-9 comes with a 5.2" barrel with a 1/2-28 thread and benefits from streamlined assembly processes, including a reduction in handguard screws from eight to two, resulting in greater production efficiency and cost savings—savings that are passed directly to the consumer. While some<br />parts of the VFM-9 are proprietary (with the bolt and muzzle device being interchangeable), this upper is backed by Foxtrot Mike’s renowned lifetime warranty, ensuring peace of mind for every purchase.  <br /><br />For those who still desire the premium materials and modular design of the flagship Mike-9, Foxtrot Mike continues to offer this product line alongside the new VFM-9. However, for value-conscious buyers, the VFM-9 stands out as an unbeatable option, delivering top-tier performance, precision, and<br />reliability at a fraction of the cost of competing products. The VFM-9 is offered in two versions, one with a Forward Charging Handle (all metal charging<br />handle and trolley) as well as a Front and Rear Charging version, a great option for people with training on an AR-style manual of arms.</p>
