IWI US Announces Launch of MASADA Pistol

U.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- IWI US, Inc., a subsidiary of Israel Weapon Industries (IWI) Ltd., is excited to announce it has begun shipping the ALL-NEW MASADA Optics-Ready Pistol today.

The IWI US MASADA 9mm polymer-framed striker-fired pistol was developed in order to provide an advanced solution to the modern battlefield requirements. This pistol takes user preferences to a new level, with each feature carefully selected based on input from military personnel, law enforcement officials, and gun enthusiasts alike. The MASADA is ergonomically designed with fully ambidextrous controls and three interchangeable back-straps, enabling the MASADA pistol to fit a wide variety of hand sizes. The MASADA was designed with a low bore axis for reduced perceived felt recoil. Overall, The MASADA was engineered to endure all elements while maintaining IWI legendary attention to detail and reliability.

The frame is made of high strength, impact-resistant fiberglass reinforced polymers. Like all IWI firearms, it is built to withstand and endure all types of military use and abuse in extremely harsh environmental conditions.

MASADA utilizes a modular, serialized, high-grade steel trigger mechanism housing that can be easily removed, allowing simple and easy disassembly and maintenance.

The trigger was designed to enhance the shooter’s accuracy and safety. The MASADA trigger has an average pull of 6 pounds with a clean, crisp break and a positive reset. Featuring a built-in trigger safety, the pistol will not fire unless the trigger is pulled.

The MASADA is out-of-the-box OPTICS READY and includes interchangeable mounting plates for the Trijicon RMR, Leupold Delta Point, Sig Sauer Romeo 01, and Vortex Venom.

“This is our first entry into the striker-fired pistol market and we are very pleased with the results. The MASADA incorporates a milled-slide which provides a secure and convenient place to mount an electronic sight for quick and easy target acquisition. This, combined with an extremely competitive retail price, makes the MASADA a serious contender for civilian and government customers,” Jeremy Gresham, Director of Sales and Marketing of IWI US stated.

The MASADA has an MSRP of $480.00. Additional information can be found at the IWI US website, here https://iwi.us /product/m9orp17/

Currently, IWI US imports and markets the Jericho 941 pistol in full and mid-sized steel and polymer frames in 9mm and .45 ACP, and the iconic UZI Pro pistol, a modernized Micro UZI semi-auto pistol based on the UZI sub-machine gun. IWI US is also the importer of the TAVOR SAR, the award-winning bullpup currently being phased out as the phenomenal sales of the TAVOR X95 replace it. The Galil ACE in pistol and carbine versions also continue to drive sales in both the commercial and law enforcement markets.
