CANIK FANATIK FORUM

... That last picture! A long-slide sub-compact! I would probably actually use the pistol in this config!

Thanks for the new photos; somehow, this makes me want one even more!

Tie 'em down, don't let them leave until they give us an update on the Sub Elite!

I also notice you are lugging that Canik paddle holster around...

No experience using that particular loader, I'm a big fan of my UpLULA magazine loader though. Works so well I've never even bothered looking at other options... Granted, I bought mine several years ago, when they were much cheaper, IIRC...

I wasn't a fan of the extended mag release... I tried installing the shortest button, still didn't like it, then removed that and just ran it without any of the buttons installed.

Well, it looks like the OTHER handgun I was waiting for has finally started hitting the market... I've finally seen the Taurus 692 .357/9mm combo Tracker revolver available for purchase. That's been on my list since it was announced at SHOT show LAST year. And now, to keep this thread on topic: http...

I'm assuming it must be assembled in the US then, from imported parts. My G2C is clearly stamped "Made in Brazil".

IIRC, the Bersa Thunder 380 gets some bonus points because it's a metal frame. The compact BP9CC is a poly framed 9mm though, and it's still made in Argentina. My G2C, in a similar sized package, is still made in Brazil. PPS is made in Germany... I think if Canik wanted to import this pistol, it cou...

Its not clear for U.S. market cause ones made in Turkey can't be imported into the U.S. they have to setup production in the U.S. if they want to sell it here. I don't see why it couldn't be made importable. Taurus, Bersa, and others import compact pistols. Add the Elite-S style safety to meet the ...

I just found a photo of the Mod 2 version of the SFx, not sure if this has already been mentioned here... 1. Extended slide stop 2. Magwell 3. Lighter slide? http://www.milscint.com/en/files/2019/04/IMG_4710.jpg Via: http://www.milscint.com/en/a-special-mission-handgun-for-discrete-missions-from-sys...

Only bought one ProMag, for a Bersa Thunder 380, worked great, as a training aid for failure drills. Ended up with multiple jams per mag-full. OEM mag cycles 100%, never had a failure.

Nice, probably grab it eventually but the holster will stay in the case...

I'm hoping that holster would be a bit more functional than the one bundled with my SFx. Looked a bit loose and rattly in the video, but I also spotted what looked like a tensioning screw...

Finally got a video review of the Sub Elite! One thing I like, we finally get a good close-up view of the bundled pancake holster...

Take a look if you don't mind excessive hand gestures during your reviews!

I don't think this is what you are looking for, but still...

I really can't speak for the Nano, never having fired one, but I always thought it looked a bit top heavy. Not sure about what your intentions are, but if your are considering pocket carry: I own a PF9, and consider that to be borderline too big for pocket carry. Not so much the size, but the flatne...

Found a Turkish site selling holsters for the Sub Elite:



Looks nicely concealable...

Not sure if you ever jumped on the Spectrum purchase, but I just got an email from Bud's this morning, Spectrum $143, shipped, $139 cash price...

Time for something fresh to keep this thread alive:

I've bought mine from Grab a Gun. They seem to have good prices consistently.

I don't bother even checking with Cheaper Than Dirt, they've been on my boycott list for a decade now, after their price gouging practices during the Obama administration.
