The Honor Guard Long Slide semi-automatic 9 mm is highly accurate firearm that’s made in Gainesville, Georgia. It’s actually a family of three primary models: the Honor Guard Subcompact (HG9SC), Honor Guard FIST Frame (HG9SCF) (which stands for Firearm with Integrated STandoff) and Honor Guard Long Slide (HG9SCLS). Here we’ll focus on the Honor Guard Long Slide.

Both slide and barrel are ferritic nitro-carburized stainless steel. And along the top of the slide are snag-free sights.

The Honor Guard Long Slide’s detailing is beautiful. Both the slide front and slide rear have eight serrations apiece. However, they curve gently at the bottom of each serration. The front three and back three serrations end where the slide starts its barrel curve over the top. The fun in the design is how the remaining ten serrations continue vault all the way over the slide to the other side.

The frame is also beautifully. There are two finger recesses on the pistol grip, which is textured with a faux woven canvas instead of the usual polymer checkerboards, etc. This canvas texture continues all the way to the index finger resting point above the trigger. A thick flat swath curves from the trigger guard/magazine release area all the way down to the pistol base.

Key metrics for the Honor Guard Long Slide includes an overall length of 6.8, a 3.8” barrel, a thin .96” width to go along with its single-stack magazine holding design and a weight of 22 ounces.

Its barrel has a 1 to 10” RH barrel twist and is fronted by a recessed crown. The slide has HONOR GUARD etched in large letters. The Honor Guard pistols come with both full and flat M1911 style (small) backstraps.

Trigger pull is about 7 pounds and the movement is short before bumping up to a stop at the back of the rounded trigger guard.

Safeties abound, and several are ambidextrous. This includes the slide catch, magazine release and an optional manual thumb safety. There is also a striker block safety.

Honor Guard pistols come standard with black slides. But the frames can be Acid Green, Black, Battleship Gray, Electric Blue, Enigma Blue, Flat Dark Earth, Mahogany, Olive Drab Green, and Turquoise. There are also options for slide colors and themes and one frame option for a two-slot under-muzzle Picatinny rail.

These guns come with either a 7-round or 8-round magazine. These magazines are stainless steel and have an elegant column of witness holes.

The Honor Guard semi-automatic 9 mm guns are Made in USA.
