New Canik TP9SA Mod 2 9mm Review

[@eastdav]

6000 rounds through mine and no problems. Great gun and fun to shoot I find it crazy this only cost me 300 new.

[@gunpolygamist]

LUCKY YOU HERE IN CANADA 🇨🇦 IT COST ME 600 BUT NO REGRETS I ABSOLUTELY ENJOY THIS GUN

[@dadecounty556]

Yoo nice to read positive things for Canik, What ammo do you use ?

[@gunpolygamist]

@@dadecounty556 I USED EVERY KIND OF AMMO IN MY CANIK AND IT RAN EVERYTHING I PUT IN IT I REALLY LIKE THE CANIK I TRUST MY LIFE WITH IT AND I AM TRULY A GLOCK GUY BUT THE CANIK IS AMAZING

[@eastdav]

@@dadecounty556 I shoot my reloads

[@jnorth5689]

Over 500 now

[@nikcue2542]

I bought mine a couple months back. Very good pistol in my opinion. Took it to the range and ran about 500 rounds right out of the box and it NEVER jammed once. This is my everyday carry and I personally prefer this over my Glock 17.

[@raymondgoodwyniii5648]

Considering getting this for my edc how do like it for concealed carry ?

[@ronminervino6718]

I watched this review and it sold me. Picked this one up for 375 out the door. Great trigger and super accurate and very tight with no rattles. Love the grips. No problems after 500 rounds. Great gun! Get one you will not be disappointed!!!

[@guyfawkesuThe1]

And single action.........

Any upgrades/mods??

[@randy464]

Shot my Canik TP9SA mod2 for the first time and loved it . So damn accurate and it feels good to shoot.

[@mattwnovak]

Sootch the decocker is a take down function for the pistol so you don’t have to pull the trigger. It’s actually very smart for the people with holes in their floor.

[@thsbulldawg82]

If someone can't check for a round in the chamber before pulling a trigger, then the may not not to own a firearm m

[@JamesSmith-xs1yy]

Amen to that

[@impressiveprogressive7343]

@@thsbulldawg82 agreed

[@francodigitalphotography3227]

Bought one and I am beyond impressed with it, its reliability, its construction, its accuracy. It ate everything I put through it. No jams. No issues at all. Great carry gun. The decocker is not a problem. You really have to push hard on it to engage it. I have never done it myself. It's not a problem at all.

[@hartsickdisciple]

I just bought a TP9SF. The fit and finish and materials used are beyond reproach. This really does seem to be a no compromises, go-to-war ready gun for $300-350. It's pretty impressive.

[@Wildwestwrangler]

Yes it absolutely is a gtw pistol!!! Canik has been making guns as a nato supplier since 1997 and importing with century arms to the USA since 2012!!! But yes, they were making guns for war first before selling to civilians.

[@rudyo8409]

I shot 1 today. I like every thing about it. Buying 1 ASAP. It's every thing I wish my G17 was.

[@marcdemichele2689]

I have now had my Canik for a cpl of mos. I have put EVERY time of ammo possible through it. Close to 1000 rounds and NOT ONE malfunction. I can't say that about ANY of my other guns. Ruger, Taurus, and even my little Luger.. Would have thought it was a bargain at $200 more, as I got it for $299 on sale. Could not be happier. It is well balanced with an amazing trigger and the recoil is as soft as it gets. The decocker is a feature that I actually have come to like, and no... it has not haphazardly engaged. It is a VERY deliberate motion you have to make. I did a lot of homework and tried a number of guns before making this purchase. My budget was $500+ and felt overall was the best gun period. The FNS-9 was also up there, but I figured, buy the Canik and spend $250 on ammo. If you haven't shot one, give it a go. I think you may be pleasantly surprised.

[@sashakodiranger]

Just purchased my first Canik yesterday. It's the TP9SA Mod2 and I'm so happy with it and looking forward to shooting it. Thank you for a great overview video. You explained the weapon and the decocker very well. God bless you and America!!

[@jlbrpt]

Your post says you're so happy with it and can't wait to shoot it. How can you be "so happy" with a gun you have never fired? I hope it lived up to expectations once you finally got to the range.

[@mrglock2313]

I watched this gun from a far for years. I let everyone be the testers first. After all of these years I am all in and finally bought one for $349.00 and so far couldn't be happier. Thanks for your reviews and testing as always sootch 👍👍 the holster I received with my gun is kydex and must be an upgraded holster because it works great and fits perfectly no straps etc.

[@dbel723333]

These friggin caniks just work !! I have the 1st tp9sa and it's hands down one of the favorite guns in my safe. Hasn't let me down yet. I shoot IDPA with it and it's a solid gun. You can't go wrong with them at all.

[@PastorWestCammon]

Thanks for this comment. Just put a used TP9SA on layaway at my local ps. Getting it for $280. Good deal?

[@drinkinginhistory7938]

Just recently went through a pistol use and defense course with my Canik Mod 2 and it was all good. Instructor used my gun for a demonstration a couple of times and mentioned the smooth trigger. Have at it, its a fantastic pistol

[@dannyjohnson3707]

I sure have enjoyed your reviews of the Canik TP9 pistols and now the SA Mod 2. I ordered mine earlier today. God bless America and long live the republic. Keep up the great reviews.

[@gunfreak9mm]

I just picked up a TP9. Caniks are the most impressive pistols in any price class.

[@Wildwestwrangler]

I also like the tristars, also made in the canik factory!!! I have the sf elite and tristar p120 and both are dead nuts reliable, fast in hand, and extremely accurate!!!

[@2fastlm]

This was my first handgun, love it!! Very accurate and always shoots, witness elite match was only handgun that I ever shot that was more accurate. I've shot a cz sp01, beretta 92,Taurus pt92, many glocks and a PPQ but this Canick is way more accurate. Cant be beat for the price!!!

[@CanofBeans-bf2oz]

My SA is a runnin' son of a gun. It is the most accurate striker fired pistol I have shot. PPU/Monarch ammo is a good marriage there.

[@hurricane8634]

The xd is 100 times better than this gun and you can get a original xd for 300

[@davidcole333]

I love Canik. Excellent quality, accuracy, reliability and pricing. Also...I would add that Glock needs to see how Canik is doing their take down lever and make the change to emulate what Canik does.

[@Beatdowncaptain1]

I love the canik pistols. I went with the sa mod 2 for the decocker. Probably one of very few who like that safety feature but I'll love my pistol more when the night fision sight comes in

[@tylowe78]

Always a fan of safety first as everyone should be...

[@RileyRR]

Every time I think about getting something other than a canik I always end up going back to canik because its such a good deal

[@sootch00]

Hard to beat the quality regardless of the price. Thanks Riley!

[@TheFacelessMan82]

I think some of the EAA and Sar guns are on par but some are not +p rated which bugs me. Also completely different guns as the Canik is striker fired and the other's are DA/SA.

[@thisismagacountry1318]

Riley R Enjoy supporting terrorists? That's where your money goes. From Canik HQ to Turkey's government through taxes and straight to government supported terror cells.

[@Steven-js8yk]

Sootch00, this is a very affordable, very well made, quality full size sidearm that is solidly built and is as reliable as the day is long. Every bit as good as any 9mm service weapon on the market today. Even the magazines are superior quality with an excellent rounds capacity. It's a "Go to War" handgun in every way. Thank you so much for another excellent gun review!!!

[@fumasterchu12]

These have been tempting me lately, they look really nice-especially for the price. I found these for $319.99 online, that's an insane price! Another excellent video my friend, thanks for sharing!

Just picked this one up and the tp9 da in bronze from palmetto state today.. ive been hearing nothing but good things about canik.

[@ChuckJacksontampaphotographer]

I recently purchased a Canik TP9SA Mod 2 in no small reason due to your exceptional review. Mine is mainly for home defense so I picked up a tac light and an extra magazine, as well. I will be taking it to the range soon but wanted to say *thank you* for all you do to inform folks with your videos.

[@carsonclark3757]

How is your light with it? Which one did you get?

[@ChuckJacksontampaphotographer]

@@carsonclark3757 I've got 2, actually. One tac light with a red laser (200 lumens for light) and one tac light without red laser (600 lumens for light). I honestly do not know the models - I bought them both from Amazon but I do know they were not "top" budget models like Olight, Surefire, etc. They cost me $45 or less and they both fit and work perfectly.

[@carsonclark3757]

@@ChuckJacksontampaphotographer Awesome, man. Thanks. Do they make the gun too heavy? I'm just 125lbs.. And a first time G.O. But love what I've seen from the Canik and hoping the TPSA 2.0 will be manageable weight and recoil for me.. Any insight for me?

[@ChuckJacksontampaphotographer]

@@carsonclark3757 Well, I am not 125 lbs but it fires like any other NON-sub compact 9mm. The recoil is very manageable. The combo light/laser is only a few ounces - you won't even notice it. I zeroed my laser for about 10 meters and it is useful. On another note, I actually prefer a laser over a red dot (which I have also fired on a Glock). Most people seem to prefer red dots, though. I like the laser because you don't have to ADS to feel confident the bullet is going to hit the target and you can actually be confident in that in different situations where ADS is challenging or more dangerous (exposing more of your body to aim properly). My weapon is for home defense so the tac light and laser would most likely be used at night, in my home so it is ideal for that. Don't care if the home invader knows they have a laser on their chest, or not... I've fired several hundred rounds thru it so far and NO issues, at all. I haven't had a FTF, misfeed, jam. Works like clockwork every time. Easy to clean and maintain. No issues.

[@carsonclark3757]

@@ChuckJacksontampaphotographer you don't know how much this has helped! I've searched for a week and couldn't find the stuff you just sent THANK YOU sir. I was already considering a light and I too don't like the idea of having to ADS. I considered just aiming with my light/point and shoot.. but now I will definitely look into what you have. I also am waiting for my SA 2.0 to come in. So this was so helpful. Last 2 questions if you have time: 1) even with light+laser it doesn't add much weight at all? And 2) I grew up with my dad constantly stressing gun safety and a "safety on" in particular. Would you recommend I use the decocker as my standard safety? Or leave one out of the chamber and just mentally know the process of cocking before it's go time? Thanks for whatever else you can give me.

[@toa2267]

Ya'll need to understand one thing.. *Saying this only once..* Whenever i watch a Canik vid i notice a lot of negative comments regarding Turkey being a terrorist supporting state.. and why you shouldnt buy one.. I don't like politics, never have.. Turkey has broad variety of cultures and religions within it.. You see, i totally understand the American mindset when it comes to terrorism, because the US has suffered from it.. but why should an average Joe become the victim of a choice made by his government? I don't consider every American as being a war hungry cowboy? You guys are the frontrunners when it comes to defending the 2nd amendment. Stop hating the unknown! Learn about it! You don't want to buy the gun because it's Turkish? Well you broke my heart.. ;-) Turkey has 80 million people.. not everyone hates the US.. and i know for a fact that not every American hates Turkey.. We also love guns and freedom.. so we have something in common.. Sootch love you brother.. stay safe..

I’d love to see a TPR vs. TP9 head to head comparison! TP9V2 owner here.

[@Thetailofthetrident]

TP9 V2 You get a D-Cocker; however, the pistol is not inoperable it puts it in a double action mode and it basically is a striker fired DA/SA pistol that gives the operator 2nd strike capability. I do not know why that didn't take off.

I have a tp9sa and it’s because of sootch and I’ll tell you I haven’t regretted it once but I have heard people say the same thing about the decocker and just as a second opinion I’ve never accidentally depressed the decocker you have to actually push it. Trust me if you “accidentally” depress it It’s because you intentionally made an accident happen. I’ve dropped mine on purpose on something to make sure that that wouldn’t happen and trust me it’s not something you could do on accident.

[@jeffwilkins6411]

I've got 2 Caniks, the original SA and an Elite-s. Both have been fantastic performers. The Elite in particular is an amazing pistol, nearly the equal of my HK VP9. The Elite's trigger and accuracy are superior, but not quite as comfortable to shoot.

[@scott3009]

Agreed. Have both as well and the VP9 has a little better ergo's for an extra $300. Originally had a V2 and SF, both were excellent, than bought a SF elite and SFX and they are actually even better. Cannot say enough good things about these guns with the amazing price points.

[@Scruffy001]

[@tylerdavis4875]

Also if they make a compact single stack it would really put a cheap competition to shield or 43

[@scotteger6271]

Seems like that's never going to happen...Canik, CZ and HK don't seem to care about the single stack market

[@ronsteed]

For me ... I can imagine myself always doing a full slide rack if it was decocked in a clutch emergency situation. I would never be able to do the partial striker recook maneuver if the red haze was coming. Which of course would lose a round. Not a big deal but annoying. I would much prefer the DAO for simplicity. As an aside I was robbed at gunpoint once (no I was not carrying at the time) and I remember how my attacker showed his gun was loaded by racking the slide and seeing the round pop out.

[@harashiSAN]

The Mod 2 TP9SA was the first hand gun I purchased. I have not shot too much... perhaps approx 150 rounds so far, had some failure to feed/extract t issues, but I hear that they will go away once the gun is worn in. I'd really like to get the SFX optic ready version.

[@coderlicious6565]

Very informative. I just came home with a new one. My goal was to pick up a glock - wanted either the 43x or 19, but the 43x was too small for my hands and the 19 was $620 compare to the $390 for the Canik. Pretty content with it. It's an impressive gun.
