I need SAR clarification.
I read recently about someone sayin they really liked their SAR handgun, so I tried to do a little research and I'm confused, I'm finding what looks like two different SAR's and am hoping someone can explain the difference to me.
CDNN has two on sale this week, one is an EAA SAR B6P and the other is SAR Arms CM9, I'm guessing is different manufacturers but I have no idea. Someone please school me.

B6P has all but disappeared. The CM9 was the "updated" version that also updated the K2.
Both have little inventory anywhere right now. Since CDNN is basically the sole seller, consider the B6P discontinued or soon to be. They are the gun industries discontinued discounter. Strangely, their current price isn't all that great. |

SAR is short for Sarsilmaz. Models include the B6P, B6P compact, K2P(I have this one), CM9 Gen2(2nd generation of K2P), SR38(357 magnum revolver), K2 (steel framed double stack 45 Cal), St-10, SAR 9, etc....

The B6P has a 4.5" barrel and fixed sights. There are barrel to slide locking lugs on the barrel. The K2P/CM9 has a 3.8" barrel with a square chamber block for lock up, adjustable sights, ambi safety, and an accessory rail.

As far as I know the latest Sar is known simply as the Sarsılmaz SAR 9 Pistol
a import from Turkey. Videos here: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Sar+9 The SAR 9 was discussed in the Guns & Ammo magazine "HANDGUNS" April / May 2018 issue. It was Titled: Tough Turk-The new SAR9-A Solid Affordable Import from Turkey http://www.handgunsmag.com/news/now-...ay-2018-issue/ Mackie244 / Bud |

They were as low as 220 at CDNN.
Now they are in closeout discontinue mode at 239. Sportsman, GunBuyer, all the others were just as low over the last year without CDNN's shipping costs. I would skip the B6P now that it is discontinued (here anyway) and do the railed version by Tanfoglio under the Witness Polymer. |

I take my K2P out once a week. I always leave smiling. I'm solid at 15 yards and under so I'm working at my 20 and 25 yard shooting with it. I would like to see Sarsilmaz get themselves established here in the US, but I'm sure if/when they do, the prices are going to climb.

I paid $279 + tax for my K2P last year. The CM9 is internally the same. There are some cosmetic changes to the grip, trigger guard, slide/slide serrations, and added changeable back straps for the grip. The CM9 initially came with 2 mags, but cdnn advertises that it only comes with one. The K2P only came with one mag.

The SAR series piqued my interest. Specifically the B6P, supposed to be a close replica of the CZ75 with a polymer frame. While not necessarily new territory (I know IWI did it, and EAA maybe?), it looked good and was inexpensive. Plus it appeared to be closer of a replica than IWIs offering, the Jericho.

EAA was the importer of Sarsilmaz, though they aren't anymore. Interestingly, the IWI Jericho has a much higher price tag. The poly framed Jericho and the SAR CM9 are very similar in appearance.
