The Springfield Armory Kuna 9mm is a roller-delayed pistol that cuts felt recoil and improves control (Springfield Armory part no. KN9069B). It has a 6-inch threaded barrel with a multi-port muzzle brake, hybrid flip-up sights and a 30-round translucent magazine with metal feed lips. Springfield Armory fits fully ambidextrous controls and a non-reciprocating charging handle, and an integrated Picatinny rail end plate allows attachment of stabilizing braces. It suits range shooters who want a soft-shooting 9mm platform.

Key Specifications
