Steyr Arms Introduces The High-Capacity C9-A1 Concealed Carry Handgun
TRUSSVILLE, Alabama (March 29, 2011) — Steyr Arms has announced the introduction of the new C9-A1 pistol, which bridges the gap between a compact carry and full-sized shootability. With its concealable-length slide and barrel of the S-series Steyr pistol, and the hand-filling frame and high capacity of the M-series, the C9-A1 provides the best of both worlds.
The new C9-A1 is nearly identical in form and function other handguns in the Steyr line—the M-A1 full-size series with its 17-round magazine and the S-A1 compact series with its 3.6-inch barrel. It also boasts the newly redesigned Reset Action System trigger mechanism that was introduced in December. The C9-A1 is chambered exclusively in 9x19mm and is sure to be a big hit with Steyr pistol aficionados as well as those who are looking for a concealment handgun that provides comfortable ergonomics, low bore axis, remarkable safety features, amazing accuracy thanks to a consistently crisp break, and extreme reliability.
The C9-A1’s full-size polymer frame offers unparalleled ergonomics with a high grip and low barrel axis that mitigates muzzle rise as well as creating a perfect grip angle for a very natural point of aim. The drift-adjustable sights are in the traditional three-dot configuration. A Picatinny rail on the frame’s dust cover provides for mounting illumination and laser-aiming devices. An integrated trigger safety with the newly redesigned Reset Action System trigger requires positive finger pressure to operate the double-action-only mechanism. The striker-fired pistol also incorporatesk a keyed safety lock. The barrel is cold-hammer forged with conventional rifling, and the chamber is fully supported.
The suggested retail price of the C9-A1 is $649.
Established in 1864 in Steyr, Austria, Steyr Arms is one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious firearms manufacturers. Steyr’s comprehensive lines of premium hunting rifles, precision sporting and tactical rifles, and striker-fired handguns are technically mature, and their subtle elegance also communicates the harmony between appearance and substance. Steyr’s legendary SBS actions and cold-hammer-forged barrels are distinctive and unparalleled. Steyr Arms is also the U.S. importer for Merkel firearms and Anschutz precision rimfire sporting rifles.
