 Let me get that. There it is. We'll go back here. Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. Today we're going to do a comparison with the Sarsalmez SAR-9 versus the Stoker STR-9F. Both full size polymer frame, striker fire, 9 millimeter handguns. The SAR has a 4.4 inch barrel as the STR-9F has a 4.7 inch barrel and that's what you're looking at there. The grip is essentially the same width and length. Both have mags that carry 17 rounds. Let's start with the SAR. This became very popular as handguns started to explode during the the gun buying surge and people were loving the SAR-9. You know you can pick it up fairly cheap. Now in today's market you're looking at 350 to 370 and I still think that's a pretty good deal. As mentioned 17 round mags they do give you two mags and it has an ambidextrous thumb safety. This model does. They also have another one that does not. Forward serrations, very nice grip. I call it HK-ish. They have additional backstraps and grip panels and slight, I wouldn't even say those are finger grooves. It has a very nice grip to it. Full pick rail right there. Three dot sights, nice shooting handgun. I've taken this to the range on several occasions and it really gets the job done. For a full-size handgun at a budget price I think it's pretty nice. Has a beveled mag well. Overall nice feel. The trigger measures right at five and a half pounds. You can see it has that red there when that red is no longer visible. It breaks. Very nice trigger. Short reset. Five and a half pounds. Really can't go wrong with that. The STR9F is a new addition with Stoker. Came out in 2022. Also has mag with 17 rounds. Now if you understand the way Stoker operates they sell their handguns in packages. So you can get additional mags, additional backstraps, night sights and increased costs. The average price for this is right around 320. So a little bit lower with the Stoker. Both these are made in Turkey. So that gives an idea of why the price is budget friendly. But look at those slide serrations. Very deep cut forward and rear serrations. It also has a full pick rail under cut in the trigger guard. Unique looking trigger guard. Slight finger bumps. More aggressive grip. If you look at the back strap you can see how much more aggressive that is with the Stoker. Three dot sights. It has a loaded chamber indicator bar right there. And overall this is a nice shooting handgun. I enjoy this as well. This has a flat trigger. It breaks right at five and a half pounds as well. And you're looking at a very short reset. So you know there's no question that both of these are fine shooting handguns. I've enjoyed them both since I've owned them. I've had the Sauer 9 longer and I think this is a phenomenal budget friendly handgun. But when Stoker came out with this the STR9 series actually is growing in popularity. People really like them. I have the STR9C and now I have the STR9F and I find them to be very nice shooting handguns. They are very similar in size and price. A little more pricey at this point in history I guess with the Sauer 9. But the STR9F is a nice deal all around. Now I mentioned I took them to the range. I also did some limperess tests. Let's check that out and see how both of these models performed. Nice. It passed. And a little issue there. Let's try it again. And that time it did not chamber. Look the Gundam style. And there's another. The Sauer 9 did better on the limperess test. Part of that has to do with this was well broken in when I did that. That actually helps quite a bit. But let's get it on the scale here. The unloaded weight 27 and 3 quarters ounces here are 18 rounds. Okay so that would be the one in the chamber 35 and 3 eighths ounces. All right. Full size handgun. Now the STR9F it did okay. I have to believe if I put more rounds through this prior to doing that limperess test it would have performed better. I'm not making excuses. I just have seen this and have experienced this not with this handgun but others as well. The more rounds you put through it the more reliable it gets. That makes common sense to me anyways. 26 and a half ounces 33 and 5 eighths. So approximately 34 ounces. Is that a little bit lighter? Yeah just a little bit lighter with the STR9F. We'll go ahead and show the internals here. The Sauer has a nice takedown lever. It's not lever. Well I guess they are. You pull the slide back and then off comes the slide once depressing those. Dual recoil spring polymer guide rod 4.4 inch barrel and there is your frame. Same deal with the STR9F. Okay so I can't really say which disassemble I like more because they're both extremely similar. There's what we're looking at here. A single guide rod, steel and a 4.7 inch barrel. Taking a look at the mags here. Here we've got the STR9F has an extension on the base plate the Sauer 9. Not really but they both they both work just as intended. Sauer gives you two. Stoker gives you one. Now you can pay additional and if you do that you will notice that the Gunstore price will be about the same for each of these. So there's not a great price difference. Sauer gives you a little more in the case than Stoker does. In terms of ergonomics I'm going with the Sauer 9. I love the way it feels and I like the adaptability of changing out the grip panels and back straps to fit the shooter's hand size. Both have forward serrations. Both have full pick rails. Both have what you want in a full size handguns. Both are accurate shooters. I have no problem with either. In terms of the grip here not bad. I just like the Sauer 9 but what I do like with the Stoker is the trigger. Five and a half pounds. It's a flat trigger. It just is so crisp. So I'm giving the Stoker STR9F the nod with the trigger. Overall if I had to choose one it'd be a tough choice. Both perform exactly as intended. Both very accurate shoes. I hope I demonstrated that but I'm going with the Sauer 9. Maybe I've had it longer. I've got quite a few more rounds through it that may have biased my opinion a little bit. But I really like this handgun. I think it's a nice Sarsilmaz full size polymer frame handgun. They did a great job with it and they priced it well. I like Stoker very much. I reviewed several of them. I currently have the STR9C. I have the STR9F. Now quality handgun no doubt about it. I enjoy shooting this and this was very accurate as well. So I find both these to be fine handguns. What I really want to know is which one would you choose.
