Savage Unveils Striker-Fired Stance XR Micro 9mm

Savage has unveiled their latest creation, the striker-fired Stance XR Micro 9mm. This new arrival to the handgun market showcases a contemporary design specifically engineered for superior performance, encapsulated in the convenience of a compact everyday carry pistol. Savage has refined the design of the micro pistol into a slender, easily concealable weapon, assuring users that the Stance XR Micro offers as much practical use as it does portability.

Striking Features of the Stance XR Micro 9mm

The Savage Stance XR Micro presents a variety of configurations to cater to diverse users’ preferences. These options include matte black nitride stainless steel slides complemented by front and rear serrations and a chamfered front for simple reholstering. Moreover, Savage’s Quick Release Optics (QRO) plate enhances the slide, making the attachment and detachment of optics swift and effortless. Potential users can choose from standard 3-dot iron sights, night sights, or opt for an optics-equipped model that includes a Crimson Trace CTS-1500 red dot straight out of the package.

A Closer Look at the Details

The Stance XR Micro boasts a polymer frame replete with a forward-facing Picatinny accessory rail, primed for installing lights and lasers. Added to this is an ambidextrous slide catch and magazine release, juxtaposed with a sturdy grip provided by aggressive surface textures. The wide-face trigger offers a short, sharp pull coupled with an equally brief reset. Users can customize the grip size to their preference with the inclusion of a pair of 18-degree interchangeable backstraps. Alongside it, Savage provides a 10-round flush fit magazine and a 13-round extended magazine. Customers can choose models with or without a manual safety feature. Aesthetic variations are also catered to with black, gray, and FDE frame color options available.

The standard model of the Stance XR Micro 9mm, either with or without a manual safety, is priced at $469. However, models equipped with night sights are marked at $539, while the optics-equipped model is tagged at $659.
