Canik TP9 SFX

[tmy255]

Any thoughts on this pistol fondled one while visiting my daughter, man what a nice feeling pistol and it has really good reviews just wondering if anybody had one and what they thought.

Great for the money in a free state, not worth it here in CA with the ridiculous Mark up

Agree with etwinam. I have one. You get a lot of stuff and features for the money, but kind of rough on the edges. Much like a Soviet-era AKM.

Did you bring your daughter to the gun shop? Hope she saw your expression while holding that gun. Is she of age? She can buy it from a private party at 18 (at least in NV or AZ) but she cannot buy it from a dealer until she is 21.

I want one pretty bad.

[tmy255]

Yup was in a free state looking at it on sale $645 with vortex sight back in the "70's and "80's that's what this state used to like like. After going though the gun store I was in, I'm officially leaving this **** hole not just because of the freedom to buy what you want but the politics here are so far left it is not worth fighting for 59 yrs old getting out while I can.

Yes I am working on the gift part now but looking in that 45 ft pistol case with every brand name and caliber you could think of and people walking up saying I want that and walking out 10 min later was to much for me I was seriously crying in my truck in the parking lot no ****.

Just be happy you do have the ability to get out. Is your daughter staying where she is? Makes sense to move there. Yes, it's not only the gun rights situation. When only one political party has voice, no good can come out of this mess.

Curious as to what you will do for the magazine capacity situation. If I can remember it when I go home, I'll bring my CA legal 10 rounder PPQ magazines with me to see if they would work in the TP9SFx. The slides interchange, so maybe the magazine would too. It's a shame to give up those 20 rounders, though.

There's one for sale in the Marketplace for only $850. That's a great price for one in CA. Really surprised it hasn't sold yet. Many people do not know of the brand Canik. This is basically a Walther Q5 Match for a lot less money. You can even interchange slides between the Canik and Walther and the trigger is just about identical. Grip is slightly longer than the Walther so the 15 round Walther mag will not fit onto the Canik but the Canik 18 round plus 2 basepad will fit into the Walther but will stick out.

[tmy255]

Yes she lives there leaving the magazines there and have ten round one coming with pistol, $850 is a pretty good price for Ca. with tax and Dros over $900. I really did not mean to rant about Ca. gun laws and politics but standing in the gun shop and looking at prices and what we can not get here in Ca. I guess reality finally set in just how low we have sunk in this once great state.

The Canik is made in Turkey and I now have a real problem supporting anything from Turkey. I just don't believe they are really a US ally.

You can not buy a Canik in CA unless you are law enforcement or you buy it from a private party transfer. $850 is through PPT so only $885 total which is not bad. The one selling for $850 is currently SPF so someone got a decent deal.

[munkeeboi]

i think it was a great deal. Surprised it was out there for so long.

I had a guy offer me 2 on a trade... he valued each one at $1,200!

[heidad01]

In free states,

These are well under $500 and under $700 with tbe red dot. Far better than any Glock.

Taking cover now.

Felt the stock trigger on this yesterday. WHOA...great at this price point. Super short reset and the overall quality of the gun is not as rough as most people have commented.

I was able to get it much less than the advertised $850 asking price so it's a win for me. Must've been listed so long, he just wanted to sell it.
