Canik pistols are the best value going with great triggers. Just when I thought I had all the Caniks I need, you have to convince me, with your usual great in-depth review, to buy one more. Gee, thanks 😎
Great video assessment and presentation! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Based on it, I started a "hunt" for a Canik METE. Indeed, Canik developed a new platform with the METE SFT and SFX. I bought me the SFT. I am amazed that the METE trigger is an improvement over the great TP9 trigger. It is exceptionally good. I am happy with my SFT. No complains from me, except praises! I may get me the SFX too.
I think that this is the best overall performance I have seen from both of you at the range with any recent pistol. To be fair I think that had the wind not have been a factor you both would have done even better. I love the trigger that Canik has used since the release of the Elite series. Personally, I feel it is the best out of box striker fired trigger of any current production pistol that is not a custom tuned for competition firearm. Thanks for sharing and I think that is a keeper for both of you, great shooting.
You know what I will *not* pardon the wind the wind is a butt. Got my Mete SFT in the modern forest digital and I absolutely love the look of it. Been holding off on going to the range because my buddy is super excited to go with his new purchases as well and we're going to make a day of it.
Nice, Canik has really improved these guns since they were first introduced to the civilian market. I’m a big Walther fan so I might grab one of these since it’s based off the Walther design and it’s cheaper with similar performance
i always look forward to the gb guns reviews, especially shooting impressions. alot of good info in your testing. gram & teya, you guys are one of the best/ my favorite you tube channels. thanks for all the awesome reviews.
I have this gun in the Green Bomber color. I also put on +5 magazine extensions from Wasatch Arms. I also put on the Freedomsmith short stroke trigger. Now it's a badass
I've been looking for a 9mm for a couple of months and settle on this one. Supposed to be in the store in a couple of days. Don't think I'll be disappointed after watching this.
Great video guys! It's a Canik, so you would have to be drunk or high to not shoot well with this gun! Graham, when you gonna put a ring on Teya's finger? She is definitely a "KEEPER"!!!!!
Well I just picked one of these bad boys up and after watching this review I’ve never been so excited to get a gun to the range! Mines all black sexiness. I’m calling it “The Gavel”!
Thank you, it's been tough keeping our What's For Dinner Test going through the ammo crunch, a HUGE thanks to our Patreon and Ammo Squared supporters for making it possible!
Great canik shooting. Amazing gun with large capacity mag. Very good with different types and brand of ammo. I like the mete sft, but not mete with suppressors after I’ve watched “mrgunsngear channel” youtube video. But still a great shooter 9mm sft. Sept.8: I’ve watch “Top Shot Dustin,” mete sfx fires great with a suppressor. Well, maybe it depends on quality of suppressor being used and ammo. But Canik mete is still a great pistol. I’m so impressed. 👍
The what's for dinner segment is excellent (2nd vid of yours I've watched after the tabletop) and I really like the variety you used. I just bought 300 rounds of Winchester steel cased 9mm and while I'm not the biggest fan of steel it's still better than make believe ammo. A gun should be able to run anything of decent quality imo. I also like the different perspective from Tia (?) and I was rooting for her to flip the target, she's a good shot, subbed!!!
Thank you and welcome to the channel. The format you described is what we've used for hundreds of gun reviews! Additionally, most of our videos are part of articles (check for pinned comment) if you're looking for specs, where to buy, or more information like that which UA-cam doesn't want us showing).
This has to be a very good gun because I have to say it's the best that I've saw you both shoot and I have seen a good amount of guns on your channel. Good content as always. How do you compare this to a VP9?
I traded my VP9 in on a TP9 SFX. Sold that to get a Canik Elite Combat. I also have a Walther PDP. Both the Walther PDP and the Canik Elite Combat are better than the VP9 in my opinion. I know my opinion may not matter but.......
I think it was due to being the V1. I had several failure to feed and ejects with the VP9. The Walther ate every single round. Just my experience. I loved the ergos of it. And the LS looks badass. I'm by no means saying it's a bad gun. Don't get me wrong. Just my opinion. Nothing more.
@@jasonnuttle7426 failure feed was maybe due to the recoil spring, I know they changed it later on to the Vp40. It's a solid gun and the Longslide is stupid accurate, it's like cheating.
Thank you, yes I've been a fan of them since the beginning. I don't think there's enough there for a video, but can say that in general the better you can grip a gun there's flip and longer the slide the less flip.
Great review! Took my METE to the range for the 1st time today and I am not dissappointed ! Great trigger, fast and accurate. Can't wait to mount an optic Any recommendations?
The positive reviews and hadling one at the range is increasing my interest in the Canik. I've heard it pronounced Met-tuh, Met-tah, or Met-tay. Which is right?
Nice shooting.from my opinion it better both of you should make full course dinner because we can see consistency from each bullet.both of you don't have the same accuracy.so we can judge it is a bullet or a shooter.no hard feelings sir.i love your review.i hope you can understand what I'm trying to say because I'm not native English speaker.
Awesome review! Should be getting mine this weekend. By any chance do y'all know if this will fit in any other Canik holsters. Trying to find an aftermarket holster and it seems to be too new. I've seen pictures of this slide on the elite combat frame so I wonder if it will font in holsters for the elite combat?
Thank you! It was a long time between the first time (off camera) and this that I was able to get that blasted thing over. I Will do it again and hopefully sooner rather than later.
Is it a difference compared to the canik tp9sf elite Vs. the METE SFT? In reference to grip? I have small hands and can't get a really high grip on the TP9SFX.
I think those reports are ridiculous. The early (like years ago) Caniks were sprung for NATO-pressure ammunition and so would sometimes struggle in the hands of unskilled shooters or when fed weak ammunition. Canik has since changed the springs to make them more American ammo/novice friendly.
+professional note I really enjoyed the "whats for dinner?" exorcise; I've recently purchased a METE SFT. This portion of the video provided a lot of insight on Canik and the improved SFT model. Personally it sparked alot of ideas for me as well. Having a PCC and handguns too I would like for all my property to run the same kind of ammo (for sport shooting its just easier to buy in bulk.) And being new to weapons collecting these are factors I may want to take into consideration. Working on finding what ammunition has a good balance in: cycling through the firearm, capable of providing proper defense/stopping power I want , and also with it being compatible alongside my current skill level to intelligently and accurately handle what I'm shooting.
I NEED one before crazy Joe says no. Anybody have any connections in Afghanistan? I want that m4 I paid for.sure it's not the best but it is mine.im sure it's sitting in the lost & found box next to that red sweater...lol

This was my first video and it will not be my last. You guys have hit it out of the park with this video.
Thank you and welcome to the channel! We follow this same structure for almost all of our range videos.

You guys always do awesome videos. I appreciate the honesty. You all and Honest Outlaw are my favorites. Thanks for the no BS videos and great humor.
You know what I will *not* pardon the wind the wind is a butt.

I have a Walther PDP and a Canik Elite Combat. Love them both.
Very much a Walther Clone! I have 3 and they shoot as well or better than Guns I own that were 200-300 higher in price.
@@billdarden1470 not quite as ergonomic but I would agree. They shoot better than the old H&K VP9 I had. I don't have a mete yet but one day I will.
Am I the only one that said, YAAAY! when Tia made the spinner spin? I think not.
Nice shooting you two , I'm really digging that Canik !
i always look forward to the gb guns reviews, especially shooting impressions. alot of good info in your testing. gram & teya, you guys are one of the best/ my favorite you tube channels. thanks for all the awesome reviews.
For me, second, behind The Firearms Guy. Just because his videos are mostly 5 to 8 minutes long!
I have this gun in the Green Bomber color. I also put on +5 magazine extensions from Wasatch Arms. I also put on the Freedomsmith short stroke trigger. Now it's a badass
i love your format. Really covers most real world choices very well. Keep up the good work.
Thank you. We do it with every gun because most of the time it's not the gun's fault or the ammo's fault, it's the combination that doesn't work.
Great Shooting and Review! I love my Canik TP9 and it's my favorite CCW.
Great job on the swinging target Teya!! You as well Graham!
I have the Canik Mete SFT w/ the Mecanik M01 and I love it! I honestly believe that this gun makes me a better shooter.
It's either this or the Walther PDP compact as my next pistol
I've been really considering purchasing one of these
I've been looking for a 9mm for a couple of months and settle on this one. Supposed to be in the store in a couple of days. Don't think I'll be disappointed after watching this.
This is a great gun, congrats!
Just bought this and it is a fantastic pistol. The trigger is superior to any striker pistol I own. Great video you guys! 👍 😊
Great video guys! It's a Canik, so you would have to be drunk or high to not shoot well with this gun! Graham, when you gonna put a ring on Teya's finger? She is definitely a "KEEPER"!!!!!
You're my new favorite follower 😊
Good shooting from the both of you ! I'm not a Canik guy but after seeing your review I might check one out.
Well I just picked one of these bad boys up and after watching this review I’ve never been so excited to get a gun to the range! Mines all black sexiness. I’m calling it “The Gavel”!
Congrats and enjoy! Fantastic firearm.
Thanks for a great non-biased review. You went above and beyond, which I truly appreciate. Subscribed!!
Welcome to the channel! If you enjoyed the format you'll be pleased to find we've covered hundreds of guns in the same manner.
The trigger guard looks huge, good gun for cold weather.
Good review! Just ordered one and can't wait to take it to the range. Drooling over that table of Ammo...lol
Thank you, it's been tough keeping our What's For Dinner Test going through the ammo crunch, a HUGE thanks to our Patreon and Ammo Squared supporters for making it possible!
Just ordered this gun last week. Actually traded my m&p 2.0 10mm for it.
.I'm surprised this new sf isn't getting more attention 😊
Great canik shooting. Amazing gun with large capacity mag. Very good with different types and brand of ammo. I like the mete sft, but not mete with suppressors after I’ve watched “mrgunsngear channel” youtube video. But still a great shooter 9mm sft.
Sept.8: I’ve watch “Top Shot Dustin,” mete sfx fires great with a suppressor. Well, maybe it depends on quality of suppressor being used and ammo. But Canik mete is still a great pistol. I’m so impressed. 👍
After shooting both, which one do you prefer overall?
Great video series!
This is my question as well.
The SFT feels more like a duty gun, the SFX like a competition/range flex gun. They're very similar.
Great video and great firearm. Has quickly become my favorite to take to the range.
I would like someone to test the SFT 4.2” model I love at one I think it would be a great compact model
The what's for dinner segment is excellent (2nd vid of yours I've watched after the tabletop) and I really like the variety you used.

Thanks guys. Great job. Good info. Excellent shootin.
The gun is great, but in the hands of an expert it's even better. your eyes and timing are very good!
This has to be a very good gun because I have to say it's the best that I've saw you both shoot and I have seen a good amount of guns on your channel. Good content as always. How do you compare this to a VP9?
This is closer to a Walther which I consider a step above the VP9
I traded my VP9 in on a TP9 SFX. Sold that to get a Canik Elite Combat. I also have a Walther PDP. Both the Walther PDP and the Canik Elite Combat are better than the VP9 in my opinion. I know my opinion may not matter but.......
@@jasonnuttle7426 I have the vp9 and the long slide and love them both. Was just asking because they both look very similar.
I think it was due to being the V1. I had several failure to feed and ejects with the VP9. The Walther ate every single round. Just my experience. I loved the ergos of it. And the LS looks badass. I'm by no means saying it's a bad gun. Don't get me wrong. Just my opinion. Nothing more.

Lol her on the spinner “im just gonna shoot” wholsome.
We keep it real here. No scripts, no retakes.
Will be good to get a muzzle flip and recoil comparison with other Canik models.
Ammo and shooter skill are huge factors
@@GBGuns Just general comparison will be great. Really no one else gets to shoot all Canik types. Your insight will be great.
Thank you, yes I've been a fan of them since the beginning. I don't think there's enough there for a video, but can say that in general the better you can grip a gun there's flip and longer the slide the less flip.
@@mkhan1232 Thanks. Teya has some good ideas for a video on this.
@@GBGuns that would be great Teya. Can"t wait to see it.
Nice video nice pistol.
Great review! Took my METE to the range for the 1st time today and I am not dissappointed ! Great trigger, fast and accurate. Can't wait to mount an optic
Any recommendations?
Optics are a wide-ranging choice. We have a video coming out soon about picking a dot.
@@GBGuns Looking forward to the Video! You guys rock! Glad I found your channel & have been passing on to my firearm friends.
The positive reviews and hadling one at the range is increasing my interest in the Canik. I've heard it pronounced Met-tuh, Met-tah, or Met-tay. Which is right?
That depends. The English word is pronounced "meet", the Turkish word i don't know, I don't speak Turkish
ua-cam.com/video/4UTpiCd5hiI/v-deo.html it's pronounced like this. Without the "Gazoz" part.
It's pronounced "Met-Ay"
Met teh
Very Nice Review ❤️
Nice shooting.from my opinion it better both of you should make full course dinner because we can see consistency from each bullet.both of you don't have the same accuracy.so we can judge it is a bullet or a shooter.no hard feelings sir.i love your review.i hope you can understand what I'm trying to say because I'm not native English speaker.
I understand and appreciate that, we don't so we can keep the video shorter and conserve expensive ammo
Great review and great handgun👏👏👏👏 Thank you
Awesome review! Should be getting mine this weekend. By any chance do y'all know if this will fit in any other Canik holsters. Trying to find an aftermarket holster and it seems to be too new. I've seen pictures of this slide on the elite combat frame so I wonder if it will font in holsters for the elite combat?
It depends on the holster design, but generally yes they fit. We've also used Walther SF holsters
Why isn't the holster ambi?
Yayyy Tia!!!
Thank you! It was a long time between the first time (off camera) and this that I was able to get that blasted thing over. I Will do it again and hopefully sooner rather than later.
Good video. You got a new subscriber!
Welcome to the channel! If you like Caniks we have reviewed 9 different models.
Where did you find the 90gr Winchester?
Is it a difference compared to the canik tp9sf elite Vs. the METE SFT? In reference to grip? I have small hands and can't get a really high grip on the TP9SFX.
We showed the differences in the tabletop videos, but the grip diameter is the same.
@@GBGuns Thanks G! Must of overlooked!
Do you like it more than the PDP?
Very nice gun. which one to take: Walther PDP or canik mete?
Great firearm at an unbeatable price.
Really well put video
Thank you. If you enjoyed this format I have good news: we've used the same format to review hundreds of guns on the channel.
Thinking about purchasing the SFT. I keep reading that the gun jams / issues with ejection. What are your thoughts?
I think those reports are ridiculous. The early (like years ago) Caniks were sprung for NATO-pressure ammunition and so would sometimes struggle in the hands of unskilled shooters or when fed weak ammunition. Canik has since changed the springs to make them more American ammo/novice friendly.
My first gun
That's a mighty fine first firearm.
@@GBGuns I love it, I’m not inexperienced with firearms but it is the first one I purchased for myself, I’m well pleased with the quality
Canik Mete Sfx Good For People With Small Hands
bruh they funny af so wholesome i luv it
+professional note
I really enjoyed the "whats for dinner?" exorcise; I've recently purchased a METE SFT. This portion of the video provided a lot of insight on Canik and the improved SFT model.

Is this METE SFT worth the extra money over the TP9SF Elite?
That's up to you.
I NEED one before crazy Joe says no. Anybody have any connections in Afghanistan? I want that m4 I paid for.sure it's not the best but it is mine.im sure it's sitting in the lost & found box next to that red sweater...lol
Can you put a threaded barrel from century arms on these???
Yes
@@GBGuns okay got ya! It’s because I’ve been looking and it says it fits sf sfx and elite but it doesn’t say METE SFT so I’ll give it a shot
@@juan_ctzz it'll be obnoxiously long, but it'll work
@@GBGuns damn so it won’t look fit?!
@@juan_ctzz not really. The SFT is slightly shorter than the SFX and then you ad thread length it might get rediculous.
👏👏👏👏👏
best value😃
Got me laughing!!!!
🇺🇸
That tp9sfx (rival) needs to drop glock killer
Glock was passed up decades ago, it's only their low-bidding contracts and folks who don't know any better keeping them alive.
alsom job you 2
Price canik
Only downfall about caniks is finding mags
Have you tried direct from Century or Canik USA?
Yup out of stock every site I’ve checked online including from Canik and century
👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸💯💯🔫🔫☕️☕️
I carry my mete sfx , love it. I know it's a competition firearm, but it's a edc for me.........🦾🦾🦾🦾
