The SAR USA SAR9 delivers reliable striker-fired performance with a 17-round capacity that keeps you ready for extended range sessions or duty applications. This full-size 9mm pistol combines Turkish engineering with modern manufacturing standards to create a dependable sidearm at an accessible price point. Built on a reinforced polymer frame with ergonomic grip texturing, the SAR9 provides consistent handling across various shooting conditions.
What Makes This Different
The SAR9 features a cold hammer-forged barrel and a match-grade trigger system that breaks cleanly at approximately 5.5 pounds. Unlike many budget-tier pistols that compromise on internal components, SAR USA incorporates hardened steel internals throughout the fire control group. The pistol includes three interchangeable backstraps and ambidextrous controls, accommodating different hand sizes and shooting preferences without requiring aftermarket modifications.
Key Features
- 17+1 capacity with flush-fitting magazine for extended shooting sessions
- Cold hammer-forged 4.4-inch barrel with 1:10 twist rate for consistent accuracy

Range testing demonstrates consistent 3-inch groups at 25 yards with quality ammunition. The SAR9 cycles reliably with both 115-grain and 147-grain loads, making it suitable for competition shooting, law enforcement training, or home defense applications. The polymer frame construction reduces overall weight to 29.9 ounces unloaded while maintaining structural integrity under rapid-fire conditions.
