Düzce, Türkiye- Sarsilmaz exhibits at IWA Outdoor Classics 2026 (Hall 3, Booth 319 | February 26 - March 1) in Nuremberg, Germany. The company will showcase its latest civilian-market firearms and sport-shooting solutions to industry professionals from across Europe.
Following the conclusion of Enforce Tac 2026, Sarsilmaz will shift focus from law enforcement and internal security applications to the civilian sector at IWA, one of the world's most established trade events for hunting, shooting sports, outdoor equipment, and civilian security products. IWA provides a key forum for distributors, retailers, and industry stakeholders to evaluate new products, discuss market needs, and build long-term commercial partnerships.
With a manufacturing heritage dating back to 1880, Sarsilmaz operates one of Europe's most advanced vertically integrated firearms production facilities. The company handles everything from forging and precision CNC machining to advanced metallurgical processing and final assembly. By producing in-house, Sarsilmaz ensures full control over quality, durability, and performance validation.
At IWA, Sarsilmaz will showcase a variety of in-demand models. Visitors will have the opportunity to view the SAR9 GEN3 and SAR 7/24 pistol families, alongside additional offerings tailored to the needs of dealers and end users.
Exporting to more than 80 countries, Sarsilmaz continues to strengthen its presence in Europe through new relationships and collaborative opportunities. With robust in-house engineering and production capabilities, the company aims to deliver reliable, high-quality products that meet the expectations of European professionals and consumers alike.
"We are currently navigating a productive phase in the establishment of new partnerships," stated M. Nuri Kızıltan, General Manager of Foreign Trade at Sarsilmaz. "We anticipate a higher level of participation at this year's event, which will be more distinguished than in previous iterations. The IWA represents a significant opportunity to fortify relationships within the European commercial market. With the Steadfast Dart 26 NATO exercise taking place in Germany, we expect this year's event to be distinctive and busier than previous ones. This exhibition will also enable us to present our products to key stakeholders, particularly in relation to the European Union's SAFE (Security Action for Europe) Project.
The IWA Outdoor Classics has historically served as a vital meeting point for the hunting and shooting industry, offering a robust platform for fostering enduring business relationships. In the wake of Enforce Tac, we are keen to engage directly with the European civilian market, comprehend its evolving requirements, and highlight our latest offerings to the appropriate partners."
International sales teams will engage with defense agencies, distributors, and commercial partners. The objective of these discussions is to explore opportunities for strategic market expansion and foster long-term partnerships.
