BREAKING NEWS
According to Sarsılmaz's statement, the SAR 109T has become the first Turkish-manufactured submachine gun to enter the operational inventory of a US law enforcement agency. This achievement demonstrates the company's successful penetration into one of the world's most demanding security markets—the United States.
With approximately 150 years of manufacturing heritage, Sarsılmaz designed the SAR 109T as a compact 9-millimeter AR platform. The system has been integrated into the police department's operational inventory for duty use, training, and performance evaluation. Additionally, Miami-Dade County Police Department has begun testing the SAR9 SOCOM Compact, SAR9 Full Size, and SAR9 Gen 3 Frontline series. The Frontline series, built upon the SAR9 family architecture, incorporates tritium night sights, optics-compatible slide design, extended magazine well, and increased ammunition capacity—features specifically developed to meet law enforcement requirements.
South Florida's strategic location, proximity to international transportation networks, and stringent security standards make the region critical for law enforcement operations. Doral serves as a hub for diplomatic, commercial, and high-profile events, requiring rapid response capabilities and operational readiness. The deployment and testing of Sarsılmaz products in this region represents a strategic advancement in the company's visibility within the US law enforcement market.
The SAR 109T offers high modularity despite its compact form factor. The system combines AR ergonomics with 9-millimeter ammunition controllability, targeting rapid adaptation and operational flexibility in urban environments. Operating on a direct impingement system with optimized buffer assembly, the platform features a 9.8-inch barrel and four-sided Picatinny rail system for compatibility with various accessories. Its optics-ready design enables integration across different mission configurations.
Sarsılmaz Board Chairman Latif Aral Aliş stated that the adoption of the company's products by law enforcement agencies in the world's most important markets reflects not merely commercial success, but tangible field validation of the company's commitment to reliability, quality, and operational performance. Aliş emphasized that the company will continue strengthening its global market presence, particularly in the United States, through technology solutions centered on professional end-user requirements. The Miami-Dade County Police Department's adoption of the SAR 109T and inclusion of the SAR9 Gen 3 Frontline series in its evaluation process demonstrates Sarsılmaz's internationally recognized engineering capability.
