![]() ![]() Sometimes you have to fire a pistol more than 1,000 rounds before there's a perceptible change in its trigger press. These things sometimes work themselves out in dry-firing and test-firing. But that trigger? Yuck! As with a lot of polymer-framed, striker-fired pistols, the new out-of-the-box trigger pull squeaked and presented hitches in its gait. The SAR 9 pistol feels good in my large hands and points well. The red indicator lets us know the striker is charged and ready. As I pulled the first gun out of its case, those thoughts changed to Whoa, that's a nice-feeling grip!įirst Impressions The trigger includes a safety familiar to Glock users.

And that reputation continues with their latest offering: the SAR 9 pistol. Given this longevity, they've built a reputation for building exactly what their customers specify. Based in Turkey, Sarsilmaz has been building and refining firearms since 1880 when the Ottoman Empire ruled the eastern Mediterranean. Sarsilmaz may not be a house-hold name in the United States, but they are not new players in the global firearms scene. ![]()
