Anyone have any experience with Caniks? Looking for my first 9 mm handgun and the reviews are pretty convincing. Any /k/ testimonials or criticism? inb4 Turkshit, for a decent quality fun at less than $400 I'm willing to overlook it.

I am the opposite of most /k/ users. I wouldn't mind supporting the Turkish arms industry in the least, but I prefer to save up my money for more established brands.
I was seriously considering a Regent R100 or R200S .45, which is a 1911 manufactured by TİSAŞ and distributed by Umarex (my big beef with 1911 is that it's an OK design but vastly overpriced). However I'm broke and by the time I can save up $400-$600 for one of those, I can get a prancing pony on my slide for only a few hundred more.

I owned one of their stingray c models as well as a p01 during the same time period. The canik was machined better but both had the same shitty paint. The gun was reliable and accurate, really all I could ask for a range toy. They are good guns, you should rent one and try it out.

In order to not be totally non-sequitur, I had a guy try to sell me on a TP9SF the other day. It really is a great gun for the price, it seems. I really don't know much about striker-fired polymer pistols. My only advice is take advantage of the net and research long-term reliability
Theyre good for killing fat russian ambassadors from behind but not good for actual combat situations

Love and carry my Canik L-120. I love everything about it, granted I changed the sights out for mepro night sights. She's never failed me after 2 thousand rounds. $320 out the door.

TP9SA owner. Bought mine on a whim for $250 (used). It's a great gun at twice the price.

Demo Ranch seems to like it. I was a volunteer there and most people were running these, Race Glocks, or 9mm 1911s.

I have a TriStar t120. Basically a Jericho clone.
Its fine. Turkey sucks cock. I will never buy a turkshit gun again.

If I were you, I'd look into their compact CZ clones, C-100 in particular. Quality, I read, is great; just 1.5 lbs, common $20 mags, respectable aftermarket.

I was on a pistol stage. Getting hit with spalling was expected. I just took an unusually large and fast one to the chest that is embedded in my ribs one year later.
I liked my TP9 V2 so much it's now on my hip and the Glock 17 went back to the safe. J&G had them on sale a few weeks ago for $279 so I bought a spare! J&G still has them now for 289
Caniks are stolen German designs. This thread is rightful deutsche clay.
Actually some Caniks stole their design from the Czechs as well! But the fit and finish on them is terrific. I really like the Cerakote and it don't hurt that it holds 19 rounds either!

Ceska is stolen German country. This nation is rightful deutsche clay.

This shit seriously isn't even chuckle or rage inducing anymore. It's literally just spam.
If I wanted one I'd buy the elite.
I have the TP9SA. Great gun with around 1200 rounds through it. I've made it my daily driver and haven't had any issues with it to speak of. I would be aware that the SF elites have a problem with ejection.

The elites are the only ones with reported issues.
