Compact, reliable semi-automatic pistols are a cornerstone of responsible civilian and professional defensive options. They must balance ergonomics, capacity, and controllability while remaining serviceable on the range and in a duty environment.

IWI Masada is a 9mm semi-auto handgun built with modern ergonomics and practical specifications that appeal to shooters seeking a versatile carry or duty pistol.

Manufacturer: IWI Israel with importer IWI USA, the Masada ships in OD Green with a polymer grip that’s sculpted for positive purchase and fast sight alignment. The 4.1″ barrel and single-barrel configuration keep the slide-length compact while still delivering stable ballistics for common 9 MM defensive and training loads. Magazine capacity is 17 rounds and this listing includes two magazines—valuable for immediate range time and a basic reload plan.

Design and Ergonomics

The Masada’s polymer frame reduces weight without sacrificing durability. Controls are placed for intuitive manipulation: slide release, takedown, and a textured grip surface for secure handling under stress. The OD Green finish gives a subdued tactical look that blends into outdoor or duty environments without being flashy. For those prioritizing fit, the grip geometry promotes natural pointing and repeatable sight acquisition.

Performance and Practical Use

Chambered in 9 MM, the Masada benefits from the cartridge’s balance of controllable recoil, magazine capacity, and widespread ammunition availability. A 4.1″ barrel provides a practical velocity and accuracy window for defensive distances while remaining compact enough for comfortable carry. With two included 17-round magazines and the original accessories in the box, you can outfit a basic kit immediately.
