Canik TP9 -- buy this gun!

[Rusoarmo]

I've had one for about a year.

For the money it is hard to beat.

It is a good shooter and more accurate than my G19 out of the box.

I still carry my G19 or PPQ because this gun is big but if you're on a tight budget or need a "stasher" it works.

The Canik guns are excellent firearms. Any comparisons to Hi Point is ridiculous. I have a Canik C100 CZ clone that is every bit as good as the CZ 75D PCR I had in the past. In fact, it's better machined, more accurate, and has been problem free through about 1500 rounds. It's well accepted enough that custom shops like Cajun Gun Works and Galloway Precision are offering after market spring kits, sears, and hammers for them. I have no problem believing the TP9 is just as good as the original poster states, regardless of the price. They're inexpensive because the labor's cheap, not the product or the manufacturing process. The Turkish arms industry is on a par with any country right now.

Once you place the trigger in the cocked position the pull is very short with no creep. And, if you use the reset you can shoot this thing very fast!

Explain this trigger please.

Also what is that on top of the slide, looks like a button.

Checkout this video on the trigger. The button on top of the slide is a decocker.

If you can get up here to Douglas Ridge Rifle Club you can shoot mine.

I've been looking at this for a first handgun. Man, if my weekend wasn't booked.... I'll have to organize a different time to head out there.

I watched NUTN's video. Makes we want one. But I can't find any local shop that has them.

Sportsman's Warehouse carries some Canik products but haven't seen the TP9 yet.

Just ordered one myself. After looking at numerous written and video reviews, I'm really curious about these guns. For the price, it's hard to beat. I found them at several online stores such as Grabagun and Buds in addition to J&G. I went with Bud's this time as I needed about a 30 day layaway to complete the purchase. Looking forward to trying this out and seeing how it performs.
