I already know about the Canik so I knew what to expect. Great guns. What impressed me the most is you shot the whole video with no gloves in clearly cold temperatures. You are a beast.
Thanks for the unbiased review. Can't be easy to put yourself out there for all the critics to pick apart. I enjoyed the "not normally a gun reviewer" perspective. I don't shoot like an expert. Doubt that I ever will. Your video struck me as an honest appraisal of the same pros and cons I will face when I get my new Canik.
I appreciate that you are not a gun reviewer. It's good to know what a regular person (like me) thinks. Thanks for sharing. I'm thinking about the Rival, so you opinion helps in making my decision.
I just bought a twin to your gun from a pawn shop for $450.00. It's not my cup of tea with the gold and all but it shoots very well. Thinking of making it my around the house handgun after I install an SRO. I do need some extra mags.
After being a long time Glock fanboy I picked up a rival. I’d say out of the box it has easily 300-400$ more features than a comparatively priced Glock. The trigger alone is worth this gun.
If you get use to it getting rid of it will be difficult to do and I decided to keep the Dark Side, in the past 40 years got rid of firearms I shouldn't have and kicked myself in the ass for doing so. Why I kept it? Was reliable and had no issues, trigger and minds will shoot Federal Hydra-Shok Deep 135 grain under 1 inch at 25 yards.
These are absolutely amazing for the price!!! Perfect home defense or farm gun. Add a light and dot and your golden!! Literally and figuratively haha 😂
After watching you shoot, you ABSOLUTELY DO NOT shoot enough Lol I’m in Kentucky, walk out your backdoor and shoot!! 🤷♂️ haha ALSO, stop telling people how great they are!! Lol
you really need to pay more attention to flipping that loaded weapon around and clear the range of people and animals prior to shooting. watching this is the precursr to an accident.

I too would like the grip a little bit wider. One of these days I'll put some of that self adhesive sandpaper on mine. Should fatten it up nicely.
Now that is awesome definitely looking into that for myself.

Would you recommende this one for as a first gun
Does the dog have hearing protection……
😂
Dark Side has the one extra optic plate that I would want & your model does not.
Ah that’s good to know, thanks!
You can even have your FFL order the Darkside with their Mecanik Red Dot in the box still at a value of a deal.

It appears to me that he was the only 1 on the range and no animals were near him.
