EDC/CCW Hoodie weather is approaching. Post your Fall carry/rotation.

It's always nice when you're able to comfortably conceal and carry the big boys. This fall/winter, I'll mainly be carrying the most based Mete SF and my spare/used parts SFT build. It's gonna be hard to put down the SC and Prime for the coming seasons, but they'll still get plenty of range time. Both of these guns run extremely well and I can't recommend them enough. I've ran all sorts of ammo through them, comped and normal, and they just keep eating.

MC9L + MC9LS MC9 LS, Brand new, what accessories should I throw on?

Post image
24 Upvotes

Hey friends!

Finished cleaning this baby! She's a beauty. I really want to throw on some accessories, someone mentioned the back strap but I'm more focused on optics and something on the underbarrel portion. I'm also interested in a compensator but I don't even know where to buy a threaded barrel for this.

All help is appreciated! It seems things thay fit the MC9 prime also fit this but google only gets me so far, Id rather have real advice from you fine folk :).

Thanks!

Looking for some feedback on the Void 5.56 that Canik came out with recently. OEM is OCL so I'm hopeful for some quality at an affordable price. Welcome any experience with the can.

Competitive Shooting TP9sf Threaded Barrel question

3 Upvotes

Hi there I have the Canik tp9sf, amazing gun

I reached out to the official Canik support and they said they do not make a match grade threaded barrel, but I found a website (Midwest Gun Works), unfortunately on that website the barrel is sold out but it has the same exact SKU number of a barrel that Canik has in stock, that being:

PACN0008

So the question is

Does the official Canik 5 inch PACN0008 match grade threaded barrel fit the Canik Tp9sf?

One day I want to add a compensator to my Canik and get the barrel coated to be red to make it slightly unique

MC9L + MC9LS What’s Everyone’s Go To Optic For The MC9L

Post image

Looking to purchase my first red dot optic and would really like to buy once cry once. It seems like Holosun is the go to brand, but what’s everyone’s go to model? This is my carry gun so I’m liking the EPS, but I’ve gone down the rabbit hole of ready reviews, and I feel like I’m square 1

MC9 Issues MC9 LS Slide lock not popping up?

10 Upvotes

Hey friends!

New gun owner here so please forgive me if this is a stupid question. I just got done cleaning the firearm (woo) issue is, the slide lock stays down no matter how much I rack the slide or pull it, I always have to manually push it up. Is this normal? Will it figure itself out over time or do I have something defective?

Thank you so much for any assistance!

EDIT: I am a Bafoon and apparently it needs a mag for it to lock on its own. Leaving this up incase any fellow derp googles the issue and stumbles upon this post.

Insert the MAG!

MY NEW CANIK First Handgun

I have shot alot of weapons and own a few rifles but never actually owned a handgun. I have multiple weapons for home defense but looking to carry. Went to a gun show today looking for a Sig P365 but stumbled upon the Canik Mete Prime Radian. Love how it felt in my hand and the trigger felt much better than the Sig. It had all the upgrades I pretty much wanted to do the Sig as well. Can't wait to take it to the range to test it out. Just curious how people like it.

Holsters We set out to make the clearest Kydex holster on the market… I think we nailed it. 👀

Post image
298 Upvotes

If you’ve looked at most “clear” holsters, you’ve probably noticed they still have that cloudy/foggy tint. We weren’t happy with that.
After perfecting our process, this is the result — crystal-clear Kydex that actually lets the build underneath be the star. 🔥
This one is molded for a Canik TTI Combat + Olight PL-X.
No foggy tint. No hiding that TTI. Just CLEAR. 💎
Nothing in this photo is AI and no filter was used.
What do you guys think — would you run a clear holster?

MY NEW CANIK Finally was able to take my prime radian to the range put 100 rounds through it with only 2 light strikes when I tried double tapping. Safe to say it’s accurate.

I went to the local gun shop about 6 weeks ago. Never having fired a round in my life. I asked what would he suggest for a first time buyer, range, and home defense pistol. He handed me this Canik. It felt good, it was within my budget, came with the red dot, 4 mags, a threaded barrel, and an old beat up case. My friends all gave me shit for buying the first thing suggested to me. After 6 sessions at the range with some buddies, I’m so glad I bought this particular gun! I’ve shot the p365, Glock 19 gen6, Smith and Wesson MP 2.0 and the Glock 17 gen 5. This Canik is more fun to shoot than all of them.

MY NEW CANIK Finally got the Prime Radian

Two feelings, really excited, really worried.

As you all know this is a very new gun and has had quite few hiccups getting on the shelves, none at any ranges to actually test drive. It was a leap of faith for me.

I've already ran into quirks here and there like the tool to remove the radian magwell not being included (manual says it is) lock washer only being on one optic plate screw etc. Supposedly accommodates Holosun k footprint but no front lugs for the optic is making me only pray it doesn't lose zero. (EPS Carry 6moa)

Additionally I have multiple full size extended baseplate magazines, they latch and lock slide back and Im hoping so hard they fully function w the Prime Radian because that would be so sick.

FAT ASS TRIGGER!
If you pull without having your finger fully seated the finger safety grinds and catches on the frame, hopefully it's a different experience actually shooting it.

Fully open to any recommendations about light and holster recommendations. Also looking to see if I can put a slightly easier access mag release as I have short thumbs.

Finally took my first canik to the range today. Ran the first 100 rounds through it. I love this thing. Accurate as hell, ate the cheap range ammo without issue. Bought another 100 rounds to have on hand for my next trip. Glad I purchased this gun. Fits my larger hands very well, nicely balanced.

MC9 Issues Canik Prime Radian Backstrap

3 Upvotes

Hi guys, I have 3 Caniks and love them. I just acquired the Prime Radian last week and have come to really dislike the backstrap that is currently on it. I really liked the backstrap on the MC9 Prime and used that for the last year..

This is where my confusion lies:

The Prime Radian came with two other backstraps that appear to be for the Prime and not the Radian. If I was to switch out this backstrap for one of those, the Prime Radian magwell does not fit right.

I am confused because I don't understand why they would send those backstraps unless it would work with the magwell???

Am I missing something here??

I would really hate to have to buy a new magwell.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Took my new Prime NC out this morning along with my Mete Sfx Pro. This thing shoots great! Ran about 200rds of mixed ammo through it with zero issues. I need to adjust the rear sight a bit as it shoots left, but that's easy. Just need my new holster to show up and decide on what optic to run and I'll be adding this guy to my edc rotation.

Optics Mecanik M04 + Button Not Working

I've had the sight for a couple of months and the brightness + button no longer works. I am unable to change the brightness nor am I able to change the reticle. The - button works perfectly fine and I can feel the button engaging. Does anyone know a fix? I love the optic. It looks great and I haven't had any other issues with it. I'm hoping to save it if I can.
