Great video. My Mete SFT is my home defense gun. I added a Taylor Freelance mag extension and TLR7A. It now has 22 rounds in the mag. Also the value you get for the money is crazy.
I love my Mete. I have a few Caniks. My one issue was my other TP9 mags dont fit the Mete. I did figure out how to get them to fit. If you remove the feed well the TP9 mags fit well. The Mete mags have the front of the larger mag base is tapered on the front and the TP9 mags arent. I havent taken a file to the TP9 mag base plates just yet. Also, the sights a great but I am going to be putting tritium speed sights onto my Mete. Diamonds are a fast shooters best friend
Awesome review! Seriously thank you. This ones has been on my list to get. Im juggling between some other for concealed carry and this is kinda of big for long hours of carry. But id have to test it out myself and see how I feel. Regardless, great home defense and potential competition gun
"Im in a open relationship but I see other guns!" that's real talk right there! appreciate the review, just got me the Canik sft a few months ago and couldn't be more satisfied. It's actually my first Gun and to be real with you I chose that over a Gloc. Not to say I wouldn't get a Gloc, even though I just picked up a Smith & Wesson M&P metal..but I love the Canik, my first love! lol

In all honesty, I feel that the Canik trigger is better than the Glock trigger (and ive been shooting Glock for 15 years more than I have been shooting Canik). I have a Canik TP9 SFX, TP9 Elite and TP9 Elite SC vs the Glock 26, 19, 19x, 17 (x2) and 34. If anything, the the 19x and the 34 are comparable to the Cain's trigger. Great video Bro. Making my way through the rest of the videos. just Sub'd on the last video. Keep going.
I think its crazy that you can’t put a full size red dot on a full size handgun. Canik messed up there. That’s the only reason I haven’t bought one yet. Great video.
I have the Mete SFT w/ a Mecanik M01 as my EDC and I love it. Was thinking about doing the same barrel upgrade that you did. Can you list some pro's and con's about it? And is it worth the price to upgrade? TIA!
Great Review! I was thinking about picking up the Rival but just can't justify it besides being a Canik Fan. Now this METE SFT can be added to my stable and actually have a role in my Gun Lifestyle. You have now made it tough on me. I am left with the Combat Elite Executive or METE SFT. What hard decision, either way I see it as an win/win.
I picked up the METE SFT on 1 Nov. Finally took it to the range . Not impressed by the original sight placement. Pistol is off left at 7 yards and way off at 25 yards. I am debating putting some Night style sights on there. My intention is to make this a Home Defense pistol and backup EDC. I am a little disappointed in the performance out the box but it is more me being spoiled by the TP9 SC ( with RMR). That little pistol shoots knots out to 25 yards. Sorry, I am spoiled. Need to decide on the sight replacement and then train more with the SFT. Great Review again!!!
@@rik4369 night sights is something I have been thinking about as well. If that’s something you choose to do perfect time to get the sights where you need them. What night sights have you found? Thanks for watching
I may go with the Canik Night Sights. They are in their website. Going to shoot it on more tune to confirm the sights before I do it. They came flushed but are waaay off.
Greetings - it’s been two years since your video on the Canik. Would love to hear a follow up on reliability. I’m hearing these need complete slide breakdown and cleaning to keep them running long term.
@ Thank you for the follow up. In your opinion is there any truth to the firing pin assembly cleaning that some claim is needed? Hearing after 500 rounds the firing pin should be removed and cleaned.
I've owned 5 canik pistols The sft Is very good My mete sfx was not sloppy slides to frame fit, so much so. That accuracy was affected greatly I traded it off. I must have gotten a rare canik lemon. The other have been stellar
How many of those 800 rounds were 115 grain? Did you shoot any 124 or 147 grain? Heard the canik likes the 124 grain better so i qas just wondering since i just purchased a canik Mete
Personally I can't stand Glocks. I would literally pay for a Canik and sell the Glock if someone gave me a Glock. I can shoot them, I just do not like them. Never really have. The only gun I've ever shot I liked less was a Hi-point. The Canik Mete is awesome though.
I would love to get a canik but my discount gets me the glock at 435 plus tax . And for a reliable pistol that’s hard to beat for me . Looks awesome tho !!!!!!
My next gun is probably gonna be a Canik. I appreciate them remembering we lefties. Excellent review, sir!

Big fan of the Canik. excellent video brother.

The Smith Metal is a great pick up. I have the M&P 2.0 and love it. Had to change the trigger to a Apex tigger. Thanks for watching
I have a Darkside and this same model will be my second Canik. Nice review.
I have the Canik Mete SFX and love it, it’s my duty and EDC
What holster do you use?
@@legacyfirearmstraining7613 for concealed Rounded concealed Express IWB. I am still looking for a duty holster I just starting a career in armed security
I’m Glock guy also I have 2 canik’s TP9sf elite and mete Sfx look for optic for that 407k looks good on it
@@DaGunnerBigMarv I have never been a Glock fan. I am a Beretta fan boy but I also carry a Canik
Do you get +2 with the mag with the thicker plate?

I totally agree with you on that. Thanks for watching!
Bro u couldn't went into detail no better.. the best gun of the money.. outta the box ready to go.. absolutely love the trigger!!!
If you want a full size optic on that badass piece of equipment Patnik Solutions makes an adapter for it.
Damn thank you brother !! I been looking for this !

Do you still have it? I have this and just ordered the sft artic camo.
Great video bro.
I love my Canik mete sf as well.

Sorry you had to deal with that. I have the new Rival and love it! Review coming on that soon
This or the echelon?
Christ almighty that thing is big what did I get myself into I was hoping to carry this in winter 😑
can you do video on the holster set up you have for it
Unfortunately I no longer I the firearm.
@legacyfirearmstraining7613 might I ask why?
@@ARCSSelfDefense looking for different holster options for mine especially for ccw
Where are you? I see those tar heels posters on the wall…
I'm from NC but I'm in VA now. Check my channel out I do a tour of the Man Cave.
@@legacyfirearmstraining7613 bet
Just as an aside, per Canik's website, it is not pronounced Meta, but rather Met-ay.
Great video, I'm getting one. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Like open relationship
Where’d you get the optic and threaded barrel? I’m looking to get this Canik for my 21st bday in augusr

Nice gat

Most was 115 and 124. I used brass and steel no hollow point. I also put remanufactured brass. No issues
@@legacyfirearmstraining7613 cool!
Where did you get the threaded barrel and if it's an after market. Does it affect the function or accuracy?
Hey check out this link www.preppergunshop.com/canik-threaded-barrel-tp9sf-fluted looks like it may be out of stock right now. Thanks for watching!
@@legacyfirearmstraining7613 thanks
Does this gun have a safety ?
Yes, trigger safety. Same as the Glock
If you were to conceal carry this what would be a good holster. I just got mines two days ago and trying to find a good holster to conceal with
I use Slimfit holster for all my Caniks. slimfitholsters.com/
What holosun optic is that?
407K. Thanks for watching
Do you carry in holster if so what one?
I have a OWB holster that I use. It was done by a guy on Etsy. Great holster but not sure if he still makes them. Thanks for watching!
NOT 17 round mags, one is 18 rounds and the extended is 20 rounds.
Answer: hell yeah it is
You keep saying 17 rd mags. One is 18 and the other is 20….
All Caniks are better than all Glocks stock. Not even close.
Personally I can't stand Glocks. I would literally pay for a Canik and sell the Glock if someone gave me a Glock. I can shoot them, I just do not like them. Never really have. The only gun I've ever shot I liked less was a Hi-point. The Canik Mete is awesome though.

I would love to get a canik but my discount gets me the glock at 435 plus tax . And for a reliable pistol that’s hard to beat for me . Looks awesome tho !!!!!!
Almost everyone compares every single hand gun with Glocks what that tells you Glocks are the best always on ya mind lol team Glock
Not even close. Glocks are far far from the best.
they are just the most popular is all that says
