Red Dot For Canik Subcompact - What Red Dot Fits The Canik TP9 Elite SC Subcompact Micro Red Dots
Canik Subcompact Red Dots - What Red Dot Fits The Canik TP9 Elite SC Subcompact
Part 5 video of overall review....This video talks about the micro red dot required for the new Canik TP9 Elite SC Subcompact. Unfortunately a full size red dot will not fit and as of 10-5-19, there are only 2 or 3 brands that will fit...so be ready to fork over another $400 - $500 for a micro red dot that will fit the Canik TP9 Elite SC.
Also I made a mistake in this video....the rear sight does not have an oval capture ring like I'm pointing to at the 3:37 mark....This is a profile cut in the rear sight. There is an allen screw holding the sight on, but for now I'm not screwing with it.
In this video I show you the Canik Subcompact mounting area and how a full size optic will not fit. I show how a Burris Fastfire 3, a Vortex Viper and a Holosun 507c are too big for this gun.
Stayed tuned for updates on a micro red dot for this Canik Tp9 Elite SC

Well your living up to the channel name you failed this review. You did not eve cover what optics fit on the pistol.
You did not talk about the optional plate you can put on to mount the site. They have that in their kit now. It might make a difference for a mounting a full-size red dot sight

I saw someone say they're plastic and don't hold zero ?
From reddit: " I removed the slide and from the inside find the 4 holes where the plate is. 2 holes go straight through and 2 are blocked by the plate. I sent a smaller Allen wrench through one of those holes and with a rubber mallet was able to tap on the backside of the plate popping it up and out. Had to use a little force but it came out relatively easy and left no marks"
My new Canik ammo in chamber indicator has red dots painted on each side in small divots so paint won't wear off.
One thing you can do: flip the removable plate upside down. Reinstall it and pic mounts on the red dots clamp right on. You lost access to the iron sights, but the angles are correct and the slightly too long site sits on top of the slide. No probs on my gun. Looking forward to replacing at some point with a red dot that sits flush, but until then.......

Hey. If it works…
Ade Advanced Optics 2021 RD3-009D Crusader Reflex Red Dot Sight. This Red Dot will fit the Canik tp9 Elite SC perfectly the new version of this red dot has a cut out at the back to make it fit into the Optics cut out. The Shield reflex mini Red Dot comes in at $450 it's crazy to get a site that's more expensive than a gun I'm not going to put a $450 sight on a $300 pistol you can get this ADE for under $100 bucks.

How do you like the ade sights
Yep, I got the TP9SFX when it was released in 2017. Bought a $30 ADE Red Dot just to see if I'd like it.. Well, the rear wouldn't seat down into the slide cut, even on the supplied plate.. I trimmed a few MM off off the sight & she's still rocking! Same battery, same initial zero, I've removed & remounted it numerous times & I've got mine zero'd at 50y for coyotes & Hogs on my property. Smoked many with it. It'll punch out a bullseye target at 30y easily. The Canik plates sit low even on the TP9SFX. The plates are not flush with the top of the slide. So check with your Optics Manufacturer & see if it'll clear the top of the slide. Again, the plates sit down inside the top of the slide, not flush with the top.
There is a plate in the box that you install when you remove that top piece. If you take the slide off, then you can push the top plate off from the inside without prying on it. You need to get your $hit straight before you start posting reviews and putting bad info on here.

A lot of videos about the Canik's with the slide cover plates say the cover plate is hard to get off isn't in the least bit true. Remove the plate screws then remove the slide from the weapon. Turn the slide upside down. There's 2 additional holes for the larger screws that hold your red dot to the slide. Take the included torx tool you used to remove the covers screws insert into one of the big holes(it will be touching the bottom of the cover) tap lightly and the cover will pop right off. Sticking a tool in sideways to pry it off is a good way to scratch the gun. You can find the CANIK MECANIK M01 RED DOT for 170 bucks or less. It's got a lot of great reviews and the auto dim/brightness is better than than Holosun.
I think that the dovetail is the way it is so that you can adjust it for windage. Just a guess.
The chamber round indicator is marked with red mark and if It's to dirty to work you need to learn how to clean a gun

Any updates on what dots will fit? I know the Holosun 407K and 507K will with a bit of easy modification to the plastic plate. Shield RMSc and Sig Romeo Zero will also fit with no modifications. This is the extent of the list I have. If anyone else can confirm/deny/or add to this list please let me know! :)

So it should be called "What doesn't fit" rather than "What does fit".

I cheated with mine: mostly because the guy at the gun shop said it would fit. I ended up with a holosun that was a tad too long. So I flipped my plate upside down and essentially made a rail for it to slide on to. Took a bit to get it zero'd. Used a chamber laser to save on ammo consumption

@@bosshogg4255 I'm clearly not a gun expert, so I can't answer that question. But that was why I used a laser pointer in the chamber. Figured if sight lined up with the laser, it was zeroed. In any case, my situation has fixed itself. I found an SFX at the same pawn shop later, and traded my SC. Now the Holosun fits proper and all I need to do for cowitness is get suppressor height sights. Although, when I went to qualify for my Guard Card, I only missed 3 shots (which I will put under operator error)

Hi David, not on this model. The plates for the TP9SFX for example are at least 5mm tall...this is just thin plastic and because it's meant to be co-witnessed with the iron sights they don't want a tall mounting plate, just the red dot right to the gun.

I'm talking with Shield right now about getting some of their red dots to review with this gun and I when I first contacted them, they said they didn't even know which of their models fit, and prompted them to schedule a meeting with Canik over in their neck of the woods to figure it out...Problem is the industry is not communicating to make some standards with how fast red dots are becoming standard equipment....

if you're talking about removing the red dot cover, yes, that is one way to do it. The punch would have to be very a small diameter to pass through the holes that the red dot screws screw into.
From other videos I've seen, the Shield Micro Dots will work... but they run about $400 a piece... That's about the price of the gun... May need to consider other options if you really want a red dot on it.
