With some of the enforced downtime I've had lately, I've upgraded several components on this pistol from the time of filming, including a number of internal springs and the trigger. The latest video detailing these upgrades can be found at kzfaq.info/get/bejne/r65yd5t115OtZ5s.html

I ordered this gun 2 months ago. It is one of the best guns I have ever owned. I love the trigger right out of the box. The gun is very accurate. The sites are 100 % correct at 20 yards. I have had no problems with any jams or misfires. I have about 400 rounds thru the gun with no problems. I really love the gun. It cost me 529.00 in South Carolina. I have lots of real nice expensive guns and I like this one much better. The gun is heavy when the mag is filled with 20 bullets, but that the way I like it. Great Gun , Love it.

I have had my TP9sfx for a yearish and i love it. About 4 to 5000 rounds through it. Zero malfunctions. My only upgrade is i installed speed sites and i love them on this pistol

Love Canik guns. Got my first SFx 2 years ago. Now 3 SFX'S later & over 45K rounds & no issues. Bought it on a Thursday, ran 1 mag. Shot & won a match on Saturday. I did not need any break-in period. I now own 8 different Caniks, the Elite SC as my EDC & 5200+ on that one. All total over 55K rounds thru them all & I've been lucky. No issues, all original parts. Except for the red dot, I keep them As-Is & I still win. Best Out-of-the-box triggers.

I replaced the drop-safety plunger spring to eliminate some of that resistance on the trigger pull right before you hit the wall. I also experienced a ton of cycling failures when I first got it. I let it spend a few nights locked back and ran a few hundred 124gr rounds through it. Now the ejection patterns are consistent and I haven't had a failure in the past 600-700 rounds. It runs like a champ. This gun is probably the best gun deal that I've participated in. You get a lot for your money with this one.

I love my Canik TP9SF- Elite ....

First time I shot canik tp9 sfx I fell in love. Than I bought my own.

Recently purchased the Canik TP9SFX - TDE. I gave it a very through cleaning (which should always be done before firing a new weapon) out of the box. Have put over 500 rounds down range and not a single misfire. This is a quality weapon which compare favorably with similar 9mm costing 3 times as much.

I have to have this , I can't believe they are able to produce this quality at this price and include everything they do , it's a beauty of a gun and I could give two shits that it's made In Turkey , I have no problem with turkey lol they seem like awesome people with a strong mentality .

Just got this for my first handgun. Ran 115 grain ammo first 100 rounds flawless. Need to get back to the range.

I never had a break in problem with mine. I did read on some forums that leaving the slide locked back overnight helped to break in the recoil spring without wasting ammo or wearing your arms out. I did it to prevent failure to lock back issues other people were having with some ammo. It's a nice little life hack to know about guns.

Here is the historical approach for the "canik" name, if you are interested. CANİK name comes from the Canikoğlu tribe which was ruling Samsun city and its vicinity back in 12th century. Samsun is an industrial city in Turkey on the Blacksea coast, which is also the hometown of the SYS CANIK Company. CANIKOGLU Tribe is a famous one and together with 10 other tribes, is one of the foundation stones of the Ottoman empire. Even today They are keeping the tradition and also are the patriot and proud people of the black sea coast. And for those of you who want to spell it correctly; we simply spell it like: "johnick".

Talon grips are awesome. Cool to see the mods you've made here.

I purchased my Canik TP9SFX 5 month ago. I have put over 400 rounds down range from 5 to 25 yards without any issue, always using winchester 115 grains. At low light conditions or black targets the sights aren´t good. I paint them in white (except the red fiber optics, of course) and the problem was solved. I still prefer my Glock 17, a more versatile handgun but this canik can achieve better results in any competition due to its light trigger and longer distance between sights.

Odd you had to break it in. I had zero issues out of the box 1st thousand rounds. No break in required. Our friends had zero issues also. More reliable then my Glock.

as a sfx owner turk, I 'll give you the big secret.. It's pronounced "John-ick" here.. but you keep calling it that and we'll keep pronouncing jeep “Cip"..

I just bought a SFX and I have not had a problem with any ammo. But it seems that Canik has fixed the problem with safety a different spring. I love this thing.

For anyone that is having problems with cycling just email them and they’ll send you a new lower power guide rod and spring for free, just google more about it

Thanks for saying Canik. Hate videos where people try to call it “Janik”

One of the best guns i ever had and i have a lot of guns!

Have two both with sro. Wouldn't touch the trigger...it's that good. Only complaint is getting extra mags. For uspsa, scsa, idpa...excellent😃

"If that's a problem, go find another viewer." hahahah :D

I now own 3 of the TP9SFX. I have never had to break any of them in. My 1st SFX I picked up on a Thursday, shit a match 2 days later & won my division. No jams, FTF, FTE. Now over 15K rounds later, still No FTE, FTE, 115, 124, 147, no problems. All 3 of my SFX's have a total of over 45K rounds, No issues. Sorry you had a break in period.

I have 3 of the sfx all with Taylor freelance magwells, baseplates, freedomsmith triggers, tlr1/ olights, and holosun 507c and they are amazing. With the red dots I can shoot a 5 inch group at 25 yards and im not that great of a pistol shot

I was lucky, no break in point for me. I'm at 2000 rounds, no prob. My fave pistol I own.

I had the same issue with the spring, I’ve been working the slide a lot and put 100 rounds of 124gr into it so far, it’s already much better but still not 100%. Lets see with 100 more round of it gets to it or if I’ll need to replace the spring. Besides that I like the pistol a lot for its price.

My son loves this thing. I'm still rockin a Glock p80 myself.

Great content about the CANiK and the break in period. I just got mine a few days ago, though it is a pre owned pistol, but it's so cherry and pristine. I don't like buying guns at a pawn shop b/c they sell them for the retail price at stores. However, I do know about wear and tear about pistols and mine was or is Air Force top notch clean, no blemishes, scratches, dinks, kinks or knicks. Only then I don't mind paying the price and he did lower the price by $50 and that did it. I have been seeing that there is a breaking point for this weapon, so I have that to look forward to-so be it. Thanks for the info.

I have a Canik TP9SFX l have no red dot l did have a good gunsmith install a freedomsmith trigger and night Fision night sights the gun is a range toy not competition like those magazines with 22 rounds l have the 20 round stock magazine's the gun is awesome the trigger stock is very good with the freedomsmith trigger installed 50 percent of the take up is gone and the reset is ever so short especially if you are comparing it to any striker fired gun it's not as good as a fine tuned 1911 but for a striker fired gun it's pretty dam close l also have a two Walthers PPQ navy 9mm and a P99c both have very good stock triggers for striker fired guns but l think the stock TP9SFX has a even better stock trigger than both but after installing the freedomsmith trigger it's not even close to any other striker fired gun l ever shot got mine April 2019 for 429 plus tax and call in fee 467 out the door the gun has been flawless 800 rounds down range not a single failure if you like the Walther P99 Anti stress trigger you'll love the Canik TP9SFX it's basically a very good copy of the P99 AS Walther minus the trigger options l got rid of a Springfield XDM 5.25 9mm and replaced in wilh the TP9SFX and l couldn't be happier the XDM had a PRP trigger that costed 165 dollars and it wasn't as good as the stock TP9SFX trigger freedomsmith triggers are made of billet aluminum and can be bought for under 80 dollars for most Canik TP9 line of guns

I did have a few jams the first 2 clips, but after 2 more clips, did not have a problem. Took a little bit of getting used to the trigger. I find it is very light, compared to other pistols I have. With the red dot sight I had put on, it is very comparable to my glock 19, as far as accuracy. Other than the red dot, plan to keep it the way it is. Have not figured out, why this is called a sniper pistol. My wife told me this, have no idea where she heard that from. Enjoyed your video, would like to see more. Sure I am leaving more out, but, can't think of any at this time.

I have is gun also for range only love it shots very good with my reddot on it !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have the Elite, and felt that it consistently shot high (especially with 147’s)... I replaced the front sight withe the “tall” Warren Tactical tritium... it now shoots on target with the same sight picture my other pistols have

A recoil spring from a S&W 9mm full size M&P solves this problem. The S&W recoil spring is 17 pounds.

I'm planning to buy one once my licence gets here, what kind of ammo do you guys run on the sfx?

I love mine. No issues with breaking it in. The trigger is great out of the box... But the freedom smith triggers take it to another level. Question: does the extra weight (in the grip panel) make a difference? Is it worth buying?

The only fault of it is it really doesn't like reloads that might be a little weak. With 5 grains it's fine but 4.8 will stack on you

Holosun uses the Trijicon plate.

Have you had any experience with the Sig Legion X5 in comparison to the SPFX?

I subbed just because you said it like I would.

How was the accuracy with the RDO installed? Was that difficult to site in or a downside?

I rented this pistol and really wanted to like it but I couldn't shoot it without it agrivating my webbing/right thumb area on my shooting hand.

What color cerakoting is the mag base?

Well built pistols! Love my TP9DA. Check out my compilation video skip to 11:59 for action!

9 months later prices have gone up

I have a 19 round in mine I don't think I got the elite just the regular

Never had any misfires

Enjoyed your review . Couple of things that came to mind while watching . The charging handle would benefit those older folks with arthritis or less strength . As far as the proper pronunciation of product names across the board . Too many people dwell and nitpick about insignificant issues in our lives . I grew up speaking English as like some of your other viewers . The reason that I even mentioned this . Is because I was recently subjected to a proper sentence troll . Prowling the internet looking for a confrontation . I gave him what he was looking for with one & only one insulting response . Of what he could do with his f … ‘d up life . Anyway don’t dwell on the little things people . Life is way too short ..

Hi ,I just ordered this gun, do any of the plates will fit the Holosun red dot? Than for your review.

I only say “zhanik” bc I had a Turkish friend named Cevdet and I feel slightly disrespectful when I don’t 😂

Did you install the magwell before the talon grips?

What's the best 9mm bullet for this gun

yeah this gun shoots little high because it setup for 6 a clock hold.

What color is your magwell?

What up jm

What color is that mag well?

I’ve been trying to find a good holster for the sfx with a light anyone got recommendations?

What kind of mags are those

My community guideline is the First Amendment.

I drilled 2 little indents on the rear sight and filled them with nail polish 😈 #HomeMade

If you mod it than the proper pronounciation changes.

The voice sounds like George Lucas

Here’s how to install that talon grip! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/attnmclnzMCpfGg.html

Very poor review. No real information about experiences and learning from one year of use. Mostly just talks about the pistol like he bought it a couple weeks ago. Lame

Possession of this in California will get you 20+1 years in their state prison.

Ask yourself this then. If you learned phonicly and thats your reasoning, why do you say sawder, when it's spelt solder. Oh, and Arkensaw when it's spelt Arkansas, yet you pronounce Kansas as Kansas. Canik is "Janic", Type "canik" into google translate and you'll see why you need to use the correct pronunciation. Nearly wet myself at the Irony.

Djanuk.

My

All bs about the gun... where is the 1 yr review

IT'S A ((""SLIDE LOCK"")) Regardless of what people call it & THAT'S WHT IT IS DESIGNED TO DO!!!! THE PROPER SLOGAN... IT DID/DIDN'T "LOCK" BACK ON THE LAST ROUND!!! I've not heard anyone say IT DIDN'T "CATCH" BACK on the last round or I've not heard anyone say IT DIDN'T "RELEASE" BACK on the last round..!!! It's DESIGNED to L O C K Back on the last round... NO Offense intended towards you/this review.. GREAT REVIEW.. ALSO this is one of my favorite RANGE GUNS as well as HOME DEFENSE along with my GLOCK 20 10mm!!!
