BUL Armory Cherokee Compact 9mm Luger DA/SA Pistol, 3.66 in Barrel, 16+1, Polymer Frame, Made in Israel
The BUL Armory Cherokee Compact is an Israeli-made, DA/SA, hammer-fired 9mm with a forged steel slide and a hard-chrome finished 34NiCrMo6 barrel. This compact model pairs a 3.66 in barrel with a fiber-reinforced polymer frame and a 16+1 capacity. It features drift-adjustable 3-dot sights, an accessory rail with two cross-slots, and a slide that rides inside the frame rails in the CZ-75 pattern.
This compact configuration balances carry-friendly dimensions with full-featured controls. The black-oxide slide has diagonal front and rear cocking serrations for positive manipulation. The molded finger-groove grip with BUL medallions provides a secure hold, and the external spur hammer, left-side magazine release, and manual safety deliver familiar, straightforward operation.
The barrel is made from 34NiCrMo6 steel and hard-chrome finished for durability and a clean, mirror-like bore appearance. The forged steel slide and polymer frame keep weight in check while preserving strength where it matters. Dovetailed white-dot front and two-dot rear sights are drift-adjustable to fine-tune point of impact.
Controls and features are practical and purpose-driven: DA/SA trigger system, short-recoil operation, and a Picatinny-type accessory rail with two cross-slots for lights or lasers. Markings include "MADE IN ISRAEL" and "BUL ARMORY, MIAMI, FL," reflecting its origin and import.

The Cherokee Compact’s slide rides inside the frame rails, delivering a low-bore-axis feel associated with the CZ-75 pattern. Diagonal serrations at the front and rear offer solid traction for press checks and slide manipulation. The black-oxide finish on the slide complements the black polymer frame for a consistent, duty-ready appearance.
Ergonomics are anchored by the molded finger-groove grip with BUL medallions and the external spur hammer. The left-side magazine release and manual safety are straightforward and familiar. A drift-adjustable, 3-dot sight system—dovetailed front white dot and rear two white dots—supports quick alignment and easy windage adjustment.
The 3.66 in hard-chrome finished barrel is cut from 34NiCrMo6 steel and paired with a forged steel slide, emphasizing durability and longevity. The fiber-reinforced polymer frame keeps the pistol compact and manageable without sacrificing strength. Capacity is 16+1 with the included double-stack magazine.
Short-recoil, DA/SA operation provides flexibility between a double-action first shot and a single-action follow-up. A Picatinny-type accessory rail with two cross-slots allows simple mounting of compatible lights or lasers. Origin and import markings include "MADE IN ISRAEL" and "BUL ARMORY, MIAMI, FL."
