For the money, you absolutely can’t beat a Canik pistol. For what they give you, out of the box, it is hands-down one of the best stock pistols made. I have been waiting three years for Canik to finally come out with something that could possibly make me change my 43X EDC. Cannot wait to get my hands on the MC 9 and run some defensive drills with it. If it’s trigger is anything like the prior Canik triggers, along with the same reliability I’ve gotten from all of my Caniks, it will be without question the new king of concealed carry. Unless you have actually ran a Canik pistol through defensive drills for at least 1000 rounds, keep moving on and save your hate for someone else!

If it was quite that easy you would think walther would have made a micro like this. Obviously there is a very hot market for micro 9's these last few years. As for triggers in my personal opinion canik has got it out of the box so they must have used the extra 20% for improvements though I wish canik would have thought out the grip texture like the walther pdp. I will dang sure give that to walther all day long. But hey to each their own!

I have watched this particular video three times. What I am taking away from it is that a good trigger is very very important. I have always felt that the trigger doesn’t really matter, because I as a shooter, should be able to compensate and overcome any shortcomings of the trigger. But when I see a shooter with your skill level routinely discuss the quality of the trigger and how critically important it is a bell went off in my head. I am now fully starting to realize that I deserve to have a quality trigger from the beginning. Huge “learning moment” for me! Many thanks!

Hey glad we can help! Bad triggers can be worked through to some extent but they can begin to hinder a shooter at some point as well. With a good shooter the trigger being better can do nothing but enhance. Less room for error. Triggers are everything but they are a large part of the equation!

The name brand on the grip has never mattered much to me. I have the GX4 and absolutely love it. I own Sigs, Caniks, and Glocks (G48), and the Taurus definitely stacks up.

You really nailed the description of SiG triggers, I always described them as spongy. I actually prefer a stock Glock trigger. SiG’s triggers are surprisingly bad for a pre cocked striker, which the canik, Walther, and HK striker fired pistols all use

Great review for the pros and cons of each pistol. Canik offers so much to their customers for what you pay and aftermarket support is increasing. If Taurus could only offer better finishes on their pistols, and Sig can fix the triggers from being smushy then that might make a difference, but as of now Canik has been hitting home runs. Edit: What shooting gloves are you using? Given the micros do not have much room within the trigger guards. Thx.

I pocket carry my P365X (in a non-printing DeSantis Super Fly Pocket Holster w/Flap), which has a flat trigger and slightly larger grip and beaver tail than the 10+1 version, and is 14+1 with a standard 12 round mag and the Magguts +2 kit. As far as I'm concerned, the 14+1 P365X (on which I've mounted a Nightstick TSM13G green laser/light combo, and added a slightly larger mag release) is the best micro 9 out there, bar none. I also only carry it with Underwood's 90 gr. Xtreme Defenders, because hollow points just can't reliably perform when shot from such a small barrel, while the XD's fluted solid copper projectiles work amazingly well in the P365.

@user-ry2fy1mw6i The main difference is the trigger pull geometry. The flat face allows for better natural placement for improved leverage on the firing mechanism. It takes work with both to figure out what your personal preference will be, but in my experience with the flat vs curved on both the P320 and P365 FCUs the flat face improves the overall function and feel of it.

Canik should consider making these caliber pistols in the future: _METE MC 30_ in .30 Super Carry _METE SC 30_ in .30 Super Carry _SFX Rival Steel 10_ in 10mm Auto _METE SFT 10_ in 10mm Auto _METE SF 40_ in .40 S&W _SFX Rival 40_ in .40 S&W _TP380 Elite Combat_ in .380 ACP _TP380 Elite SC_ in .380 ACP The .380 ACP is not only subsonic but it has low recoil which is ideal for women, elderly, and men with ailments like arthritis who don't want high recoil. The .30 SC may be new but it performs better than .380 and is close to 9mm, and holds more rounds than both; I see it taking off the moment some affordable brands like Turkish brands or Taurus or some global brands like Glock or CZ adopt it. The .40 S&W remains moderately popular among competition shooters. The 10mm Auto has been asked for by many ever since the METE and SFX Rival series came out; it's also popular against wild animals and would do well in countries where standard military/police calibers are banned for civilian use.

The weight between them all seems about the same or at least negligibly different. The GX4 is actually the smallest, but even in that respect, they are all very small.

This is a good comparison video to the old industry standard. The HC pro and the Xmacro are the final bosses. Why show old gen pistols?

@HuntFishShootChannel

Жыл бұрын

Because both of those pistols are larger in every single dimension. Those are ultimately a different class of micro compact pistol. That would be an unfair comparison in general. We’ve reviewed both the Hellcat Pro and the X Macro, great pistols but they are nothing more than thinner compact size pistols. If you want me to pick since I have shot all of them and compare them, the macro is hands down the best shooter. It’s the easiest to shoot and shoots like a full size. It’s also the largest “micro” compact pistol available.

Carry the micro hellcat when needed(tighter clothes in summer) but I love subcompacts especially the FN 509c with a 15 round magazine. A close second being Glock 26 with an xgrip(Glock 19 mag). That being said I've been waiting for canik to come out with a micro since they tend to be beefy

@@HuntFishShootChannel I have to say, i think the SIG is popular because it brought a larger mag and a tiny size to the whole micro game. The P365 seems to have floated along because of the SIG name. But it really feels like the MC9, Shield Plus even the Hellcat are better guns, the only real thing they give up on the P365 is being slightly larger and it REALLY isnt that much of a difference. The MC9 for one seems to be superior to the P365 in every way possible cept for once again, being slightly bigger. Which isnt even a downside to a lot of people who want more space to grip.
