The Waltz 9 is Zermätt Arms’ first handgun: a striker-fired 9mm built around a patent-pending roller locking block, with a 416R stainless frame and slide, a Proof Research barrel, and a trigger reviewers keep calling the best they’ve felt. It runs Glock-pattern magazines, G17 length or longer. Designed and machined in Bennet, Nebraska, with David Petta of DCPrecision, whose DC9 was the blueprint.

This is a firearm. Federal law requires us to ship it to a licensed FFL dealer near you — not directly to your home address. Here's how it works:
- Add to cart and check out. At checkout, use our FFL dealer locator to pick a licensed dealer near you. If your preferred dealer isn't listed, check the box to enter their address manually.
- We verify the FFL and ship. Your dealer can email a copy of their license to support@reactivegunworks.com to speed things up.
- Pick up at your dealer. They'll contact you when it arrives. Bring your ID, fill out the ATF Form 4473, pass the background check/any other requirements relevant to where you live, and the firearm is yours.
