Savage Arms Introduces Stance, a Micro-Compact 9mm
Savage Arms recently announced the newest addition to their family, the Stance. The Savage Arms Stance is a micro-compact EDC (every day carry) pistol chambered in 9mm.
This new pistol shows Savage Arms’ return to the concealed carry and self-defense weapons and is reported to meet the demanding standards of accuracy and reliability for Savage weapons.
“Since Savage was sold in July 2019, President and CEO Al Kasper publicly stated that Savage Arms would be a complete firearm company,” Robert Gates, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Savage Arms said. “Today, Savage is proud to announce its first step into what is the largest segment of the firearms market with the introduction of Stance, a micro compact 9mm pistol manufactured with premium materials, finishes, and features.”
“Stance is another momentous milestone for Savage,” Jessica Treglia, Sr. Brand Manager at Savage Arms added. “While this isn’t Savage’s first concealed carry pistol, and certainly not our first handgun, it has been more than a century since we focused on compact pistols purpose-built for every day carry. Stance is the first in a new series of handguns that will meet the accuracy and reliability standards that our customers expect, and a further demonstration of Savage’s commitment to build the best, most complete line of American made firearms.”
Savage opted to have the chassis be the serialized part of the weapon, meaning the Stance will be fully customizable with aftermarket accessories. Some of these accessories include a variety of grip frames that feature a 360-degree stippling texture for more friction and better grip on the pistol. The Stance comes from the factory with two options for back straps, a small or large grip.
The Savage Arms Stance includes an ambidextrous magazine release and slide catch straight out of the box. The slide is stainless steel and features a beveled front for ease in holstering. The Stance also boasts an easier takedown without the need for trigger pull or tool for disassembly.
