Meet the new apex predator in the personal defense world — the Springfield Armory Kuna 9mm pistol. Named after the agile and cunning European Pine Marten, the Kuna is as sleek and quick as its namesake — and just as formidable.

Born from a powerhouse partnership between Springfield Armory and the innovative minds at HS Produkt, the Kuna delivers serious firepower in a package no bigger than your average lunchbox. Compact? Check. Powerful? Absolutely. Clever? Oh, you have no idea.

Kuna Is A Smooth Operator

At the heart of this new beast is a roller-delayed blowback system. Translation? Ultra-smooth recoil, laser-like accuracy, and an unmistakable “you’ve just been outclassed” vibe. Pair that with a 6-inch cold hammer-forged barrel and a monolithic 7075-T6 aluminum upper, and you’ve got yourself one seriously smooth operator.

Whether you’re left-handed, right-handed, or ambidextrous just to impress people at parties, the Kuna is fully on board. Ambidextrous everything — from the charging handle, to the safety, bolt release, and mag release — means this gun plays fair for everyone.

And did we mention it looks good doing it? With a sleek, modular M-Lok handguard, integrated flip-up sights, and a translucent 30-round magazine, the Kuna is as functional as it is photogenic. Go ahead, add that red dot or light — it’s ready.

Brace For It

Want even more swagger? Opt for the version with the Strike Industries FSA folding stabilizing arm brace, which folds away slicker than your favorite multitool and offers rock-solid stability when deployed.

This isn’t just a new pistol — it’s a statement. Whether you’re defending the homefront, heading to the range, or simply upgrading your EDC with something a little extra, the Springfield Armory’s Kuna is your new go-to.
