CANIK FANATIK FORUM

Putting together my Canik parts kit. Will build the firing pin assemblies once the spring retainer clips show up. https://i.ibb.co/ZGYg1x4/20190123-213605.jpg https://i.ibb.co/N3vTjkQ/20190123-213630.jpg https://i.ibb.co/Fx6Cdyf/20190123-213707.jpg https://i.ibb.co/ZBq03Sf/20190123-213647.jpg

FYI, just found out MSRP on these pistols is $1100.

But that's a GOOD DEAL with the Trijicon!!!

I don't know though, it seems to me that an Elite Combat with red dot is a big heavy piece of steel to wear IWB. Prior to the Combat I was carrying a SIG P320c with the X-Carry grip module. Not really that much difference. Besides, the added weight in the rear helps to counterbalance the heavy weig...

Combat sight picture.

smc is the best ive used for the sfx.. he makes a quality product and is super helpfull Agreed! I have two and they are awesome. I also reached out to Clinger with an email to see it they can do a V3 No Print for the Combat with an optics cut. EDIT: Just got my reply..... :sad: --------------------...

Never heard of the Clinger brand. The V3 No Print Wonder Holster looks very interesting! I like the concept. The lower clip uses the same approach as an appendix carry holster to pull it in towards the body. I'll have to call them and see if they can do one for the Combat and what options are availa...

I can say the addiction is real folks!

And there's NO KNOWN CURE!!!
Welcome to the infected world!

Welcome!

Brady has no choice but to play at least one more season, there is no replacement in place!!! No kidding. Once Brady is gone, I think the Patriots will fade into obscurity for a long time. If they win the Super Bowl, I hope Brady retires. I'd personally rather go out on a high note. But after all t...

I wanted to make the Wheeler Sight Tool be more like the MGW Sight Pro. I really like the way the MGW tool uses a "shoe" that is custom to each slide to center and hold the slide tight to the tool base and prevent it from twisting. Here's the MGW tool... https://www.brownells.com/gunsmith-tools-supp...

I used to be a pretty big Patriots fan. Over the last couple years, my interest in watching NFL games has deteriorated, and I typically only watch college football now. When it comes to championship games though, I usually tune it. I'm still a supporter of the Patriots, but I was kinda rooting for ...

I second the SMC holsters. I just received my second SFX Comp 2 and the quality is second to none!
As mentioned, reach out to them and see what they can do for the Elite Series.

I still think it will take a slide redesign to incorporate a dovetail for a rear iron...just not enough real estate behind the chamber indicator! There doing it somehow though. There are two Canik models now available overseas that have an RDO cut and rear irons. One of the models is a compact. Asi...

Yah, looks like it's based on the SF model, and the plates are a lot slimmer. I'm curious too how they are secured. But I hope they don't move away from mounting plates and only cut them for Trijicon. It does look though that there's a thin plate. As for no rear iron, I'm sure these were in the wor...

First thing I noticed was the optic plate. Thinner. No witness sights. Me too!!! Almost looks like it's a milled slide for the optic. :-? ...I wonder what the slide cut looks like. That plate doesn't look like it's deep enough to accept the mounting screws for the optic. maybe everything is now rec...

We should start a "sticky" soon of all the parts available for Caniks. Or create separate stickies for each model. Good idea!! I'll start a thread and make note of comparability. Others can note if they've use it in their model and I'll update the master list. @Weapon has a pretty comprehensive lis...

Welcome!
The SFX was my first introduction to the Canik line as well. GREAT GUN!!!

Doesn't hurt to have the spare parts. If it's just a range gun, then replace them as needed when issues arise. Better to have them available than have to wait for them. I just started putting together a "spare parts kit". I'm using my SFX for competition and if something goes wrong, hopefully I can ...
