SAR USA released the following statement regarding their SAR9 CX:

The SAR9 Compact X DNA comes directly from the SAR9 pistol which was originally designed and engineered to compete on the world stage as a military sidearm, and to fill a military contract. Now SAR USA is offering the SAR9 Compact X package which includes: paddle holster, double mag pouch, magazine loader and accessory flashlight. All are packaged in a rugged carrying case.

The SAR9 CX was designed by the gun maker to meet the needs of gun owners focused on self-defense. From its 9mm chambering to its 15 +1 capacity, all in a compact frame, this pistol was made for concealment. This is a striker-fired pistol with a safety blade trigger and manual safety. The textured grip and molded finger grooves encourage a sure grip, even with wet hands, and angled serrations at the front and rearward portions of the slide make it easier to manipulate.

Other features include interchangeable grip panels and backstraps for greater customization and a forged steel barrel and slide. Every SAR9 CX ships with two magazines, a holster, and other accessories.
