The STR-9 is Stoeger's mainline striker-action pistol that provides a wealth of features and solid performance at an affordable price. The pistol features a trigger safety, tactical accessory rail, front and back slide serrations, and 3-dot sight system commonly found in duty-grade tactical pistols. The addition of reversible magazine release allows for ease of use with both right and left-handed shooters. The MC model is optimized for deep concealment and features a redesigned frame and slide to reduce bulk and weight. A minimalist-style accessory rail is retained on the frame to allow for use of defensive lights and laser aiming devices. This model features tritium night sights and includes three 13-round magazines. The slide features an optic cut for use with RMS and SMS footprints.
