January 2026, Accokeek, MD – Stoeger builds guns for people who put in real hours and expect their gear to do the same. That mindset drove the launch of the STR-9 Thinline last year—and it’s exactly why Stoeger is stepping it up with the new STR-9 Thinline+.
Like every pistol in the STR family, the Thinline is built on Stoeger’s proven striker-fired, semi-auto platform. What makes it different is how it carries. The slim, one-inch-wide slide rides close to the body to stay out of the way, while the standard-size grip gives shooters a solid, confident hold—no compromises when it counts.
The STR-9 Thinline+ refines that formula even further. Its ported barrel and lower overall profile reduces printing and lowers the bore axis for improved recoil control. A larger magwell makes reloads quicker and more forgiving, and the Tungsten Cerakote slide finish adds both durability and corrosion resistance for everyday carry in real conditions.
Stoeger also focused on ease of use. The lighter slide is easier to manipulate, making it more manageable for weak-hand operation or for shooters who struggle with heavier recoil spring assemblies. Low-light capability comes standard with tritium night sights for dependable, around-the-clock readiness. The Thinline+ is optic-ready with an RMSc Shield direct mount.
At the end of the day, the STR-9 Thinline+ delivers exactly what working shooters need: practical concealability, serious capacity, and dependable performance—without a premium price tag.
