I own the V2 and the elite both of them had to go back to century, the V2 had trigger resetting issues and the elite sheared the firing pin nipple off. The Elite's originally came with stronger recoil springs for hotter loads and people were shooting target ammo and getting weak ejections. They lightened The recoil spring but it still has a heavy striker spring which sometimes allows it to come out of battery easy. Also price per trigger is unbeatable 👌

Using the swampfox, Can it cowitness with the factory sights?

Picked up 2 Caniks in the past week. I have a Elite TP9SF & SC. Both solid shooters. And optic should be here tomorrow!

I have the battlefield trophy edition of the Canik SC and it’s my favorite everyday carry by far! Love that gun

I own the SFX and I actually do carry it with a flush 18 rounder in the winter. It's an absolute hammer.

I have a TP9-SC. I put a Crimson Trace CTS-1500 on mine. I cobbed it off my Sccy CPX-2. It was a "straight-across" swap. I bench rested it to zero at the range, then fired off a box afterward. I was impressed at how well this combination worked! The red dot mounted almost perfectly. The little nub at the back (which fits into a shallow depression at thr rear of the slide) added "just enough" length for a snug fit. I used the enclosed adapter, but I'm not sure I really needed to. People will need to use the screws supplied with the Canik for the mounting.

I like the Sig Romeo Zero on mines. It’s my EDC!

Your recoil control is stellar.

I love my Canik Elite SC. It hasn’t let me down in the 3 years I’ve had it

I love mine. Bone stock and better trigger, and sights than any factory glock by a country mile, definetely better than my glocks. Havent had a single problem with mine and Im probably close to 1500 rounds. Im glad i got it early, prices are nuts if you can even find em. Not the smallest carry gun, but still very concealable, and 12+1 with a flush mag. But the trigger on this gun is just so good, you shoot it and forget about any skepticism you may have once had. Thanks Eric 🤙

TP9 Elite SC is the only SC I can co-witness with a red dot..

I enjoy your enjoyment in working with this Canik SC. I have the TP9SF ELITE & enjoy it enough to make it my everyday CC. Looking forward to purchasing the SC next! Be Blessed Brother.

Have my SC currently mounted up with a Riton Optics X3 Tactix MPRD and the Canik threaded barrel and so far It's been great. I originally tried the Sig Romeo Zero and the polymer lens was scratched the first time I had to use the poorly placed on/off/brightness button. I got it replaced under warranty from Sig then returned it to the shop where I bought it for a refund and bought the Riton which has an aluminum housing and a glass lens. The buttons are on either side of the unit and are easy to reach. I mounted mine without the Canik provided mounting plate and the sight sits low enough to still cowitness my irons if the dot were to ever malfunction.

5:24 and 9:50 (slow-motion) It looks soft shooting. Yes, it is being gripped by a tame gorilla, but the total motion seems very mild for such a compact pistol.

Just curious why Glock fans would want a 43x over the Canik Elite SC. They're roughly the same dimensions (if you use the 15 Rd mag that comes with it that had the extended baseplate), you can now by an optics ready version of the 43xbut it still only uses RMSc footprint optics, and I don't believe they sit lower in the slide like the Canik SC's does, allowing easier absolute co-witnessing. The 43x holds ten, while the SC holds 12 and 15 with the factory mags, and If you don't like either baseplate, it comes with a flush baseplate and you still retain the 12 round capacity. The barrels are about the same length, and the Canik SC gives you a rail while the 43x doesn't even offer one. If you prefer a heavier trigger pull (I can see why some do, for safer carry) the 43x has a 6 pd trigger, with the SC having around a 4 pd trigger. The stock sites are better on the SC also, with suppressed level sights and they're angled as well (I've cut my hand though slightly on the front site). The front site also is phosphorus so it glows in the dark, although that's rarely needed. I don't own any Glocks, so I'm honestly just curious what would be better with the 43x, while being higher priced (the Elite SC can be found for under $350 right now, just bought one). Thanks for any feedback.

My TP9SC is black with a bronze slide. Running Sig RomeoZero optic, which cowitnesses perfectly. Also upgraded to a Taylor Freelance blackstrap. The backstrap lowers the center of gravity to make it less top heavy (it’s brass powder coated black) and it is a bit extended, which helps with the tendency to dig into the heel of your hand.

Can't has become my favorite handgun.

Great pistol! Just got mines….first 100 rounds went flawlessly!

Had my CANIK TP9SA for over three years and it never missed a lick with the limited amount of factory ammo I've shot through it or the steady diet of cast lead handloads. Looking to pick up anther at some point.

After watching all the reviews that Sagedynamics has done on MRDs there's only a handful of dots I'd trust Trijicon RMR and any of the options from Holosun. Both make optics about as bombproof as they come and both have phenomenal warranties not to mention they both share the same footprint. As far as Canik they makes some pretty cool guns I've shot several and they're great shooters I also haven't really heard anything bad about them...

I love my Canik TP9sf Elite. It’s so much smoother shooting and sexier then the Glocks of my past.

I find each red dot to have certain benefits. Holosun has its ACSS Vulcan reticle and the solar power supplement. Trijicon RMR for best durable design. The SRO for one of the largest windows. The Burris, Crimson Trace, and Truglo optics may not have the features of all the others, but they are fine for plinking and target shooting on a budget. The Burris pushes the low end of the cost of the other manufacturers such as Trijicon, Sig Sauer, Holosun, etc.

“Outclassed in terms of size” lol, I can’t shoot my friends 365 worth a shit for some reason - I have big hands and the Elite SC fits like a glove. Forget ounces and mm measurements, use what works for you… the Elite SC was an absolute tack driver even before I got my optic, which blew my mind as I’m an (admittedly) crappy shot with iron sights.
