The IWI Masada is a full-size, polymer-framed striker-fired pistol engineered by Israel Weapon Industries — a manufacturer with decades of proven military and law enforcement pedigree. Chambered in 9mm and built around a 4.1-inch barrel, the Masada delivers a refined balance of capacity, ergonomics, and modern feature integration. Its optic-ready slide makes it a practical choice for shooters who want a capable duty-grade or home-defense platform ready for a red dot without additional machining.
