New Canik TP9SF 9mm Pistol Review

[@sootch00]

Announcement: Putting yourself on KZbin requires a thick skin. Yankee Marshall has a strong opinion and some valid points. He released the video before this one uploaded so he wasn't aiming his video at me. But the critics, including YM will need to stop buying gas to keep from being hypocritical. We get most of our Petroleum from the Saudi's, which are one of the world's biggest terrorist financial supporters. Bin Laden ring a bell? Happy Bicycling!

[@funkyfresh2404]

Nice review on the gun despite all those crazy posts. I'm sure most commenting can't track where their money went buying other guns.

[@sootch00]

+Funky Fresh Agreed... thanks brother.

[@bubbacrabb]

I thought it was odd the two of you posted similar videos at the same time. While I like both channels, his being sometimes, being liberal on any issue scares the shit out of me. Being openly liberal kinda makes me think you're an idiot.

[@Summitperry]

have to put down the chi com iphones to. its not like they are friends. better not look at russian AKs either. seems like the YM is just a closet bigot that hates turks to me.

[@Summitperry]

+Grant WTF does meeting a turk. have to do with being a bigot?

[@v.german11b]

Five years later, all Canik TP9 pistol models have established a solid reputation for: reliability, accuracy, outstanding triggers, and ergonomics. There is a model for each individual taste, need or purpose. Glock isn't the "king" anymore.

[@shadowsandspirtswithsantos6085]

Mama just bought mine for my birthday. Can’t wait til it gets here. She really did her homework before purchase. Thank god and America for good women and guns!!!

[@smittysmith6173]

I bought one of the TPSF a couple of months ago and I have to say it is one of the best production pistols I’ve ever handled. Love it.

[@fjrtsb]

Yep!! Took it to the range again this weekend along with my Glock 19. Ran 150 rounds of mixed ammo through both: not even a burp. Still a Glock nut but I've got to admit, Canik is a strong competitor. Ordered Talon grips this evening for the Canik. However, I must say the factory grip, for me, is the best of any factory grip I have yet experienced. For the price, the Canik has been to date, the best bang for my buck. Awesome firearm!

[@GulfCoastRealtor4U]

I have listened to many reviews about the TP9SF, and yours is the best. Keep up the excellent work...

[@davidskaggs9914]

I don't care about the politics. they use to think the same way on the CZ. This is a super reliable and accurate pistol...on my nightstand

[@skhumbuzogumede3135]

Thanks brother I like this hand gun I own the tp9sa no problems with it.

[@repetitivemotion]

Its going in my nightstand too!

[@702streetfighter]

So true

[@uptowned]

Great introduction! Thanks! I wish gun owners in Turkey were that lucky! We pay like 3 times as much the price as you guys do in the U.S. So, enjoy!

[@pauliedweasel]

uptowned, I’m sorry to hear that you shooters in Turkey are getting raked over hot coals with such high prices, but we in America who have become enlightened about what a great pistol that Canik makes sure are enjoying the benefits of Turkish firearms engineering. Every Turk should be proud of this great product and I’m sure even that Atatürk himself would be please at this excellent example of the Turkish firearms industry. My two TP9SFX pistols and my TP9SF are prized possessions along with my rather extensive collection of Turkish pop music.

[@sedattsn5213]

@@pauliedweasel Thank you so much bro.it is difficult to buy a gun in Turkey.I'm very sorry too

[@pauliedweasel]

Testere, I’m very sorry to hear that the government makes purchasing a gun in Turkey so difficult. I think if Mustafa Kemal was alive today he would be disappointed that the government has done this to the fine people of Turkey. I just want to congratulate your country again for making such a world class pistol, all of the KZbin videos I have watched say nothing but great things about the Canik, especially the wonderful trigger. Every time I take my Canik TP9SF or the TP9SFX out of their boxes I can’t help but marvel on the quality of construction on these guns, they are a great testimony to the technical and manufacturing prowess of Turkish industry.

[@markwilliamson6002]

After watching all your videos on the Canik line, I decided on the V2 model. My brother owns a gun store and got one for me at $307. You kidding me? This is a fantastic quality firearm and has all the extras too. I think if it shoots as well as I have seen on all the videos I can see this as a great EDC pistol. Don't let where it is made fool you. Many great European gunmakers like CZ, and being an ISO 9000 facility means high quality. I know, I was in the gun industry for nine years after retirement from LE. Half the cost of a GLOCK and a third of the cost of a Sig, at least at my cost. Great review as usual Don! Can't wait to put some serious rounds through mine!!!!

[@ANGELSRAGE77]

If Americans are so worried about not wanting to support terrorism then stop paying federal taxes.

[@SmackedInATL]

That isn't a choice. Buying a pistol is you dumb ass. Did you even think before you wrote that?

[@jdoge10]

Hey smacked, he was referencing the fact the United States bombs countless innocents in the Middle East.

[@jdoge10]

SmackedInATL I gotta ask, are you a Christian man?

[@SmackedInATL]

No, I do not identify as Christian or any other religion. I plan to raise my child in church though so she can make up her own mind.

[@chad_8313]

+SmackedInATL that sounds like the opposite, you want to indoctrinate a child through a random church, but then let her decide? Why not a secular education and let her decide when she's ready?

[@jaredanderson682]

I just bought one of these, and I have to say, it's one of the best triggers I've ever felt on a striker fired pistol. I had heard about these over the last few months and been on the fence about buying one. I watched several videos and read probably a dozen reviews. Everything I've watched and read said to pick up a TP9 if you find one. Well, I finally found a TP9SF and I love it. It's very ergonomic, holds 18 rounds, and has no decocker. The Mecgar mags are well built and beautifully finished. This pistol easily rivals my Glock 19, and the price of $370 just can't be beat. Sootch00, keep doing what you're doing. You're my go to guy anytime I'm looking at a weapon.

[@sebring4444]

When it comes to hitting what your aiming at, the TP9SA and SF are the best out there. Period.

[@Commanderhurtz1]

The amount of IGNORANCE and hate in the comments is unbearable. Sootch, amazing review! The Canik is an amazing handgun. But to all of you saying "Don't support this Turkish company", seriously? The company has NOTHING to do with the country. Some of you are saying buy Walthers, you mean that company from the 1920's and then on whom made guns for the NAZI's?! Or how about all of you owning AK's from Russia, or owning CZ 75's from the Czechs?? Do you support Communism? Or how about those WASR 10's, you know, the Romanians whom were with the Nazi party and then dominated by Russia? Get real people, you're all hypocrites. It's a good gun, it's a good price, screw the country it comes from and buy it if you want. Good work Sootch!

[@vincehollaway]

+Batarn Great points. I was thinking the same thing.

[@Commanderhurtz1]

Vincent Hollaway Thank you! I just can't believe how hateful these people are. It sucks yes they're in a not so good country, but these people are blind.

[@Donutkommando]

except buying any of those other examples you posted has no benefit to any of the correlated ideologies, Turkey as a nation still benefits from caniks sales because the money goes into their economy whereas the other examples don't even exist anymore

[@Commanderhurtz1]

DonutTheTrap While I agree with that statement, would you rather their people go hungry and die out? What if the Turkish government sees us Americans doing this and they decide to support MORE of our enemies because of it? Even back when the British was our enemies, we still traded with them from time to time in the revolutionary war. Just because you're enemies, doesn't mean you can't peacefully trade.

[@Commanderhurtz1]

iena71 I seriously hope you're joking. Looks like we have a Neo-Nazi over here!

[@MattShevenell]

This video is a year old, but I just picked up my TP9sf a month ago. I’ve been shooting for over 35 years, owned countless Glocks, Walther PPQ, Sar Arms, Ruger, Smith, HK, Kimber, and all I have left is the Canik TPSF, a Dan Wesson 45 acp, a RIA 10 mm, G29, FNX 40, sig226 from the old country, G 26, and various revolvers, oh, let’s not forget my five-seven, the Canik is by far the most awesome all-around greatest striker fire trigger and accurate gun in that I own is this genre.

[@Tucker1796]

you serious dude?

[@korybleu3491]

i really want one of these. Cheaper & better looking than a glock. And no magazine disconnect, yes.

[@elliottbutts153]

+tseawell90 Now that is saying something. Glock is pretty cheap feeling

[@Lilnasty-jo3dc]

+Elliott Butts Yea glock is so cheap that seals are using them! Lol dumb just dumb!

[@korybleu3491]

+tseawell90 Cool dude, then don't fucking get one.

[@elliottbutts153]

Perry Hughes I dont care who is using it still feels cheap. I didn't say Glock was crap. I said that they feel cheap. They are what they are. Glocks do work. Most modern guns do but Glocks are fairly cheap and they feel cheap. I know because I have plenty of them and if you compare them to many other firearms they feel cheap.

[@moonman1537]

lmfao better than a glock foh

[@Chief2Moon]

I've got the TP9SA, Mine came with 3 magazines in addition to holster, 3 sizes of grip inserts, magazine loader, brush, rod&a the decocker hasn't ever been a problem. It's accurate, feeds everything, I like it, I'm keeping it, the end.

[@TALIZ0RAH]

I'll probably take flak for this but some of the bigotry and prejudice in these comments is very depressing. I personally know people who I could consider as close as family from Turkey and they are among the nicest people I have ever met and would never in there dreams would think of supporting ISIS...

[@Kasakee2]

Agreed my friend!

[@arbhall7572]

+TALIZ0RAH I agree. Its hard to imagine people making a product like this have any sort of investment with politics and terrorism, since that would be business suicide in the north american market.

[@baron8107]

+TALIZ0RAH But their _government_ is a different story. They've been buying oil from ISIS. Maybe even selling weapons to them in return. These guns might be nice, but I'm still passing them over since Glocks and 1911s for the sake of aftermarket and abundance of used guns for spare parts. Those two designs also have a firm presence in the 'States, unlike Canik. Now, if household DMLS consoles and CAD Scanners become a thing, I'd gladly buy whatever handgun I want, since I'd have a theoretically unlimited supply of spare parts, in addition to being able to produce parts for obscure or relatively new handguns and sell them to fellow owners. Way of the future.

[@Lilnasty-jo3dc]

Yea but the Turkish government does support Isis and is a pro Islam state that hate America! That's bigitry for ya pal

[@arbhall7572]

Scowler From my understanding of the situation, I dont think they have much choice in the matter. ISIS controls the local oil, and if they are the only ones selling... That would be like accusing a holocaust survivor of supporting the Nazis because he paid for food during the war, and at some point his money paid for the boots on the feet of the soldier shooing him into a train car. I prefer not to label everyone living some place that has terrorists a terrorist. They dont get to pick who their government supports any more than you do.

[@hazardjsimpson]

Canik still my favorite pistol. TP9DA, SC Elite and I just picked up the TP9SF. Love these pistols. I actually like the decocker as well, I can keep it loaded and chambered but with the firing pin decocked, it feels safer to carry. Rearming the striker takes minimal movement as well, it's a great feature.

[@schmidtythekidd]

People need to stop complaining about Canik being a Turkish firearm. If you don't like it, don't buy. If you don't like that Turkey funds ISIS, than don't buy it. I don't hear people bitching about norinco firearms despite the fact that China supports North Korea. People don't bitch about Kalashnikov being Russian despite the numerous dictators that Russia supports and the horrible things Russia does around the world. Gaston Glock is a pretty big asshole, but that fact seems to get glossed over on every G19 review video on KZbin. So if you don't like the Canik for whatever reason, just don't buy it and stop with the hypocritical whiny bullshit. Great review as always Sootch and don't listen to the haters. Keep doing what you're doing.

[@sootch00]

+Schmidty the Kid Thanks Schmidty. You're right, it's a gun review, not a political position. Things are a little rough here in the comment section but I've got a thick hide and comments like yours are a blessing! Lol! Rock on!

[@si_vis_pacempara_bellum4906]

That's the right mind. But Turkish or not, this just didn't give me the motivation to purchase.... Side note, cause North Korea screwed China so bad, I think the Chinese government is about to quit.. China is never a fan of North Korea, they support them only because Stalin said so.. And after the Cold War, the more China developed, the more China realize what a douchebag North Korea is... Also I think people didn't bitching about Norinco and North Korea is that.. Well, nobody sees North Korea as a threat.. It kinda like a retarded kid in school, everyone hate him, but nobody really do anything cause.. He's retarded..

[@sootch00]

+ryotaryuu This is a pistol review, not a political statement.

[@haytxa911]

+sootch00 I love your videos brother but by buying Turkish products we are directly putting money and aid in the pockets of ISIS. I refused to buy ZQI 308 ammo and got PPU instead I don't even mind the price difference.

[@NedzadDzafic]

+sootch00 Thank you for doing an honest pistol review. They can hate all they want. This a good pistol for the money. Anyways brother keep up the good work. I love the your content. Long live the Republic. Oh and for the haters. If you buy an AK does that make you a Communist?

[@MrFmccarty]

I read all the comments and I appreciate what you are doing Sootch. You are showing what is available in the gun market.

[@alsautner1732]

I have the Canik TP9 SFX...I love it...!

[@billadams2284]

I am just shy of 54. 2 years back I got hit by neighborhood kids that had been in my home 100's of times. They cleaned me out. I am also disabled and have to be careful that I handle what I buy. I've been watching your reviews on the tp9 series. I wanted a TP9V2 but the only shop in my area that sells Canik only had the SA models so after saving for the purchase I go buy one. When I open the box it was a SF model. I had just seen your review on the SF so I was excited. Do to sudden and severe health issues It was over a month before I got to shoot it. I changed the back strap and had to use my gloves, the texture is a little rough. The trigger toook some time to get used to but after 75 rounds I was hitting within 2 inches at 25 feet. Thanks for your reviews they really helped me decide on my purchase.

[@iskendercakr3870]

Canik made me proud 🇹🇷 😎🙂..and this is one of the usual enjoyed video by sootch00!..You guys be safe 😎🙂..

[@ChrisB-zz8dh]

This gun is the real deal. Love this gun.

[@pauliedweasel]

All Turks should be proud of such an amazing product.

[@jeremybr2020]

I just brought home my new Canik TP9SF last night, and I've spent the better part of the evening watching reviews on this pistol. And I couldn't be more pleased with what Ive been seeing and hearing. Basically the consensus is....For the money, you will not find a better gun. Quality appears excellent and it shoots as well as any others of the same type. I'm happy, because I knew nothing about Canik before this purchase and I was afraid because the price was so good that the quality of the pistol would likely be sub par. But that doesn't appear to be the case at all. Which is awesome.

[@MACKTRUCKHUGE]

The tp9v2 is excellent, especially for the price. Hoping the make a compact version of that. 😃

[@spicecrop]

Just picked up the SF today. Really happy with it. Sootch and Nutn helped me make the choice. Those guys are right. It's a great gun.

[@sailingmaster]

Excellent review as usual Sootch! Am I crazy for wishing they made this in 10mm?

[@tlee1982]

I remember the first wave TP9s came out in my locals gun shops whenever they got them in they were sold out instantly. $350-400 range with the accessories you definitely getting a good deal.

[@JaguarDieCast]

im buying one

[@mikespivey6302]

I already did...i am no longer a sig sauer fanboy 🤣

[@GBall_Vision]

I just did tonight

[@Kam_412]

[@johnknightly9155]

Thank sootch00 for the review! Never mind those haters!

[@mic187x2]

Here's a full size gun. Loaded with products,high quality,excellent trigger. All for under a low price. You can have enough for 2-4 boxes of ammunition for under$400.

[@nbt3663]

One think I love about Sootch is that when I see a gun on another channel is that in almost all cases I can find a review from him. Thanks Sootch!

[@poodlenoodlesoup1]

I thought the "SF" stood for "striker fire"

[@andersonpc2010]

It does

[@andersonpc2010]

Just like the TP9SA is single action and the TP9DA is double action

[@ihatefords1000]

Stands for special forces

[@ihatefords1000]

All 3 pistols are striker fire but sf stands for special forces

[@Wsmith247]

I have a SA and a SF, the SF has a wider Trigger blade and feels better after a day of shooting. My SF is in FDE so you can switch slides and have 2 Duo Tone handguns.

[@TheRealCobraBurnout]

Great review as usual. I like this SF model. These Canik pistols look like good firearms for the money I'm just stuck on Rugers for the most part right now. lol

[@sootch00]

+therealcobraburnout I love Ruger. That's a good company to be stuck on! Lol!

[@markmitchell7690]

I own 2 of these and the best thing is the quality and reliability. No BS, me and a buddy set out some bowling pins and a target at 65 meters according to the range finder for plinking the 10-22. I hit the target in the "10 ring" 10 shots out of 15 that was in the mag. I popped 3 bowling pins also. Any weapon that hits like this is a good one in my book.

[@Bertg1982]

The sf stands for striker fired, not special forces.

[@ihatefords1000]

You're wrong it stands for special forces

[@rodneybrimer5171]

The handgun that made me a huge fan of Canik was the Canik TP9 SF elite. Then I bought the Combat executive. I decided to pick up the TP9 SF today to add to the collection. I don’t care about other brands now. Striker Fire Canik does it all with best stock trigger out there.

[@julesthurongi1223]

Aaaaand this vid made this TNP'er sub! :) I'm digging the lack of Anti-Canik BS here! :)

[@Warrior2200]

I'm still diggin' my "old" 55 model. Tank reliable. I always appreciate restrike capability. Not many striker guns or revolvers have it.

[@StonerAR10]

YM is a real tool. He poops on about every gun he so called reviews. I just bought a TP9SA and its a grear pistol. Better trigger than my glocks and well built.

[@abel6686]

Make sure you shoot one of these Canik's before you go trashing it. It has a way better trigger than a glock, better sights, IMO better ergonomics, and it has tested incredibly well on all torture tests/ reliability tests. Oh and it's over $200 cheaper. I've shot glocks for years but at the end of the day I have to be honest. The TP9SF shoots and feels better than any glock I've ever shot. Shoot both before posting your opinion. This is an excellent gun.

[@TheBinarySon]

Oh man...the youtube gun community could have a war on its hands between sootch and YM fans...not to mention the trolls that will come down from the mountains...INCOMING, LADS!

[@Jk-ik2gz]

Brave lads the both of em

[@anthonyn.3575]

Just bought a TP9V2 a few days ago. Haven't had the chance to take it to the range yet, but I'm sure it will perform very well, based on all the reviews that I've read and the many KZbin channels that I've watched on the TP9V2. Can't wait to try mine out !!!

[@tavosotto471]

looks like I'm not the only one who watched ym's vid on this subject

[@lucasdodson3920]

im a yankee marshel fan and i can see what he said but im afraid that some of his freinds are going to hate on scootch for reveiwing this pistol hopefuly there more mature than that but its youtube

[@cavaughnhaynes]

+tavo sotto it's right above this video on my subscription uploads

[@Hottrods1]

+Lucas Dodson no one has said anything about James Yeager he is also pumpin the tp9 sf and he has been working with them for a while and he probably would kill a terrorist on sight don't ya think?

[@lucasdodson3920]

Hottrods1 yeah james yeager takes defence really seriously and when i said i can see what yankee said its pretty much saying for example i dont like a product because its made in china and uses cheap matireals i guess turkeys getting hate because they are a terroist probe area i dont know

[@MrSquirrlee]

+tavo sotto I watched YM"s Rant and I watched his last rant on the TP9SA also. I take what he says with a grain of salt and don't even consider taking him serious. Here is a list of reasons..... (1) He carrys a Chappa Rino revolver, out of all the guns he has this is his carry gun choice? (2) He loads Silver bullets into his guns for Werewolves!!!! (3) He talks to a Glock (Gary the Glock) (4) Gary the Glock is more liked than him!!!!

[@robertmangrum2734]

that SFx model looks sweet. I can't wait for this to come out to add to my Canik collection.

[@Murphy82nd]

Ejection in the beginning seems pretty erratic.

[@derekchecketts8461]

I love how you date the video verbally, biggest first world problem for me is hitting that expansion arrow just kill's me.

[@ohiotrailcam6087]

Yankee Marshall is a troll who ONLY comments to be controversial. His channel isn't worth a second of time AND YM promotes Obama as well as Hillary for President.

[@anthonyn.3575]

+Jeffrey Snyder That's all YM does, make videos bitching and complaining about guns and products. He's like a whining little bitch !!!

[@ajklein1]

+Jeffrey Snyder Totally agree. Couldn't have said it better myself. I don't even bother watching his videos anymore, I could care less about his opinions. He is the definition of a troll. I actually value the opinion of Sootch, Hickock45 and Mrgunsngear. All of them are totally unbiased (and none of them cry or bitch about anything).

[@NatePlaysMM]

+ajklein1 He is definitely a youtube troll. His videos are just click bait designed to get views.

[@frankowen7989]

Whadda ya expect? He's not a yankee...he's a damn yankee!

[@aeHyde]

i totally agree ym doesn't take himself or the industry very seriously either.total clickbait.

[@alve67]

Just a side note to the sights, I just bought a TP9V2 and from the looks it has the same TP9SF front sights, at least the same dove tail front sight cut not as what are on your SA or V2 models. (Re-watched) and noticed that the rear sight of the SF also looks to be the same dove tail sight cut as on my V2 front and rear cuts look to be the same size dovetail. So, M&P front sights should work and no Idea for the rear I'm still in search of that info, especially since the V2 is a shorter length sight. (EDIT) Confirmed by Century Arms: (THIS IS FOR LATEST VERSIONS ONLY 2016) The latest version of the TP9SA and the TP9v2 have the same slide cuts as the TP9SF so they will accept Glock 9mm rear sights and S&w M&P front. P.S. Love your channel

[@QarthCEO]

Is this another "sponsored" video by Century Arms that has been flooding youtube? If so, you should really be upfront about it.

[@QarthCEO]

***** Funker Tactical just got busted putting up an "Instructor Zero first Impressions of the Canik" video, which was actually a paid advertisement by Century. Not surprising after they made a "Century Arms makes the best AK" video, which was also a paid advert. I just wonder if Sootch was also corrupted by Century's money.

[@ultimaetsolder]

Thanks. Didn't know it was sponsored...

[@StarCypher]

+Xaro Xhoan Daxos I've noticed that too. Tactical Response, HossUSMC, the VSO Gun Channel, Sootch, and others are being hooked up by Century. Must be nice getting free guns and gear, but all of these reviews are just from initial testing. Century guns start showing their flaws the more you use them (especially their AKs). That being said, since Caniks aren't actually manufactured by Century, they should be good to go based on the quality of most Turkish firearms.

[@StarCypher]

Yeah, I believe that Sootch is a trustworthy guy. But...I also think that the reviewers who receive Century guns for free have a positive bias in favor of them. For example: whenever anyone asks which AK they should buy, James Yeager always says Century. And if anyone brings up the fact that people have been reporting failures with their RAS47s on AK Operators Union, he'll block them.

[@sootch00]

+Xaro Xhoan Daxos I have not received any money from Century Arms... ever. Now you know.

[@jameswalker3380]

I have the tp9sa and the tp9sfx. I'm hooked on Canik and I own over 20 firearms from different brands.

[@tomsimmo5789]

Scotch it stands for STRIKER FIRED.

[@funkstauzz]

But they're all striker fired...

[@Swampytheroot]

Seeing this for the first time 8 years later. It would be a great gun at 2x the cost. Nice review as always

[@WeSRT4]

The pricing of the TP9 family of pistols has crept up to where price is becoming a much smaller advantage. You can get the M&P 9 for about 80-100 dollar more online. Is the small savings worth it? I would much rather buy american when possible....

[@huntingwolf20]

This is the best pistol in my arsenal. Better than the one gun I splurged for that cost over twice as much. Canik is a HELL of a product.

[@searchBLOC941]

SF stands for "striker fire" I thought??

[@dwallace1112]

Me too.

[@tokkie4449]

No. Its special force. Not striker fire. The actual description of the gun is "CANIK TP9SF SPECIAL FORCES ONE 9MM 4.46" BARREL 18-ROUNDS." That's what the manufacturer named the gun. The gun is a striker fire gun. You can check grabagun, Google and other gun seller to verify. The man was right. SF= Special force, even though the gun is a striker fire gun.

[@phillipfilides6607]

I own the tp9 and it's been flawless .I tried everything to make it misfire and other things it's just been a great pistol I really can't say enough about it I've had no problems .thanks for the enfo

[@MrMustang990]

Do you KZbin guys get paid to review the canik guns?

[@muzzleblast88]

excellent review. I don't care what people say I've heard nothing but good things on these and for the price it's hard to beat.

[@ChrisPenta]

What the heck is the point of these, besides being cheap? Seriously, a single action only striker fired pistol? I don't get it. Plus, you know, the PPQM2 is better anyways, and is made in a country that isn't yet controlled by Jihadists.

[@ChrisPenta]

+Christopher Penta Or, you know, M&P because 'merica.

[@Commanderhurtz1]

+Christopher Penta You're kidding, right? Glocks, M&P's, Springfield XD's are ALL single action only striker fired pistols. Just because the country is dominated by 'Jihadists', doesn't mean the COMPANY is bad. Funny you mention a Walther product, because you know, they USED TO MAKE GUNS FOR THE NAZI's. So please, next time you knock something, learn your facts and history. Thank you.

[@ChrisPenta]

Batarn HAHAHA. Ok, yep. 80 years ago. Buying them now doesn't fund the Wehrmacht. Turkey is a corrupt two faced regime TODAY. The odd part is putting a decocker on a single action only gun. It's like someone that has never shot a gun designed it. And, no, Glocks, M&Ps, Springfields, etc are not single action. They can't be accurately called double action either.

[@Commanderhurtz1]

Christopher Penta So? That wasn't your point. Turkey at one time was dominated by Christianity until the Templars came along, oh, like the profile pic you have. And yes, it's odd, though they did it at first due to import regulations if I remember right. And what? Even Glock on their SITE calls it a 'single action only' gun. Last time I checked, when I pull the trigger on my M&P (You know, because I OWN one), it has to be cocked again. So yes, it is single action.

[@ChrisPenta]

+Batarn they are so darn cute when they have no idea what they're talking about.

[@brianwojtas6396]

Bought and sold many polymer striker fired pistols and decided they were not for me, my cz 75 compact and 1911 make me looks like I can shot decent. After watching some videos on this one thought I'd buy one and try it. Did not clean and grabed 86 rounds of different boxes of factory ammo and know one at the range believed I never shot the gun before it's a keeper for a affordable gun. I can see myself putting a lot of rounds thru it and mayby a compact version if they come out with one

[@fjamato]

Made in Turkey fellas. I'm not supporting them by giving them my money to fund groups that attack our citizens. I also have friends in the military that were there and the people spit at them pretty regularly. Plenty of other pistols to buy instead. My two cents, YMMV.

[@eralpunlin6505]

The pkk that you sport attack our citizens!?

[@protectiverailroaddad7541]

Hk+Walther+M&P= TP9sf No reason striker fired polymer handguns should cost more than this. I'm not a fan of Turkey but at least they are showing that you can make a really good handgun and sell for around $350. Walther, HK, Sig, Glock, Springfield and S&W should all follow suit. I'm interested in the tp9sf compact

[@DocMitchell69]

+Grant This thing is miles ahead of Keltec. Keltecs are more like prototype guns you'd see stuck in a gun vault in the middle of nowhere.

[@protectiverailroaddad7541]

+Grant I have a ppq, Glock, Hk, Cz and other more expensive guns and this gun is not a piece of crap. Don't fall into the group of people who believe a good firearm needs to be over $500. It's simply not true. The S&W sd9/40 are also really good guns for around $300. My taste in gun is more expensive unfortunately, but I do appreciate a good bargain gun as well. I'm not as shallow as I once was

[@McCollum2009]

I buy American, Soviet, of European. I refuse to buy from a Muslim Country when I can buy from a company that supports a similar ideology to me

[@TheAlexagius]

+Nickolas McCollum soviet? you mean eastern european? they are far from soviet now, they had live under it and know how evil communism is

[@McCollum2009]

+TheAlexagius CZUB was established went the Soviet Union was still a thing and the Cz75 was first designed during the time of the USSR so I call it soviet

[@jsnsk101]

+Nickolas McCollum Agreed, buy from turkey and you might as well just write the check straight to isis.

[@Commanderhurtz1]

+Nickolas McCollum So European, like Walther whom used to make guns for the Nazi's? You support communism too by 'soviet'? Kinda silly, I don't care about the country, I care about the product. We Americans aren't that much better, either.

[@McCollum2009]

+Batarn yes like Walther who no longer make guns for Nazis saying that is like saying you hate Mercedes because that used to make vehicles for the Nazis. and yes I support Walther, Glock, and Beretta from Europe; CZUB from the Czech Republic; S&W, Remington, Mossberg, and Glock from America

[@spunkysandoval]

Everything gets a good review here

[@HHB368]

YM is right...dont support that country

[@RobWalters-w7x]

Great video, I went to the range yesterday set on buying an APX, rented the APX, CZ10 C, MP 2.0 compact, Canik TP9SF, and MASADA Still shocked at the gun I bought……………Canik, out the door for 400 including 75 in taxes, defiantly getting the APX by summer

[@dahfighter9914]

no way I'm buying anything in turkey.

[@bberkok281]

"This gun is produced according to the request of Turkish special forces. Front sight is small so you can see the target becides that and also you can handle the gun from the ground or table easyly because the grip is always stays upper a little bit. Tthis function helps to pick the gun quicker from surfaces. Finally you can disarm and arm this gun by one hand in four move in the case of one of owners hand is injured." (N. Yaman)

[@tonymengela]

No matter the price, no matter how good,,,,, it is made in Turkey and any money to them is money to ISIS....... no way

[@TheBoxingCannabyte]

Just bought the tan version tonight while out looking at shotguns, heh....But it made me feel better so why not? Feels great, I actually like it more than my Kimber TLE 2 and i might like it more than my Glock 19 and I definitely like it as much as my Springfield XDm .40 and Beretta m9 (in spite of the sentimental value of that) which i modded quite a bit...this gun is just too cool. I can't believe the price for the quality.

[@TheBoxingCannabyte]

FYI I pronounce it hte CORRECT way. "Can"-ick is just being silly, c'mon now. That'd be like saying anyone's name or anything with a similar spelling must be dumbed-down for the sake of it. Yeesh. :P Great review though.

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

Janic, correct?

[@FiveGlocks]

i just ordered one cant wait ,any time i am interested in a gun i go to your videos.yankee marshal is more of a comedian than gun reviewer.

[@geraldstrickland6987]

Just got one the other day and I love it better than Glock

[@jacks9292]

A note about century arms (CA) service... my tp9sf was found to have distressed polymer in what they call the "dust cover." It's the uppermost part of the polymer lower that runs perpendicular to the guide rails. They appeared chewed up and were really ugly. CA asked for photos and upon receiving them, I was promised a replacement. 4 weeks later, I get a package from CA, but it's the original chewed up gun. A note from the gunsmith said that the rails were fine, but as mentioned, the issue wasn't the rails but the polymer that runs perpendicular to it. So far, CA has ignored my follow-up email and I plan to take this up with the BBB and others until I get an undamaged gun from CA.

[@123andme]

The Canik is an excellent 9mm. It really competes with 500.00 pistols. The trigger is crisp and it's well built. You have to watch your trigger control. Reset is excellent which means surprise discharge is possible on range. If you can find one I suggest to snatch it.

[@fjrtsb]

Purchased TP9SF through Cheaper Than Dirt. Price: $350.00. Ran 150 rounds through it today. Not a single hiccup. I own 4 Glocks. Love Glock. Keep it simple, stupid: pull trigger, go bang! Canik, in my opinion, is equal. I love the thing!! Shoots like a dream. Wonderful sights, grip, trigger. Still a Glock nut but I've room for Canik, anytime!!

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

Not only that, it's a Walther clone, so there you go.

[@JB-ts4iw]

thanxs for the information very good presentation every question I had you answered.that being said I just went and prepaid and ordered the canik tp9sf as my tp9sa is still a tank of reliability keep up the great work thanks

[@maduro169]

After your review I purchased a Canik tp9sf .Sight unseen (on line ) . I am very pleased I would guest about 2000 rds ,not one jam thanks SootchOO .

[@brotherheed00]

big thanks for getting all three side by side. now for the after market to jump on with the TIN barrels and night sights and some slide skeletonize options. that triger looks like a high doller glock mod.

[@carlos8398]

Love your professional, informative, detailed videos, keep it up!!

[@larry1754]

Hey Sootch, just wanted to point out that at 6:34, you talked about the SF having a loaded chamber indicator on top of the slide, "like it did on the V2 model...". I know you meant like it did on the SA model, which you were pointing to, the V2 does not have the loaded chamber indicator on top of the slide. I know, I'm a stickler for details, but keep up the good work anyway, your reviews are very much appreciated and respected here! :)

[@TALIZ0RAH]

I have the Canik Stingray C and love it. Now if canik could just make a compact version of this and I would be sold.

[@Sig229DAK]

Love the AC/DC'ish intro! Great review too.

[@GBall_Vision]

I just bought one tonight. The black tp9sf series one. 330$ at Buds after lifetime warranty

[@CrimsonCinder]

Just got mine today. Great review, am looking forward to firing it.

[@allenwhite6946]

I have shot any guns in a long,long time and never thought much of it, but now I have a family and looking to a cc, but do you have any good suggestions for a good cc and for home defense, Thanks for the great vid

[@andrewr022488]

I been waiting over a year for this to come out! Super stoked about the TP9SF.

[@Lilnasty-jo3dc]

Are you supper stoked about supporting Isis and Islam?

[@sootch00]

+Perry Hughes It's a gun review not a political endorsement. Do you buy gas? Most comes from Saudi Arabia.... so did Bin Laden. Pick your poison.

[@andrewr022488]

So because Im excited to buy the TP9SF, That means that I'm un-American? Being un-American would mean buying ANY firearm that isn't a USA company and being produced in the USA. Im still excited to buy the TP9SA, Its supporting Century Arms as well which is an American Company with American Employees.

[@andrewr022488]

+sootch00 Do you have any idea what the release date will be for these?

[@Jeffrey.1961]

Bought one the other day and got to shoot it today. I like it alot. Your review was spot on. Thanks.

[@tiggerr42431]

Interesting video. I would think the model without decocker would address some of the issues. I like a decocker on my hammer fired Ruger and Sig since I have easy visual feedback of which condition it is in. If you are expecting the trigger to work and get shocked nothing is happening in a stress situation that would be a problem. The newer model to address that shows flexibility. Training with a firearm is the key.

[@sagarnaidu7480]

Whatever hate people may leave in your comments section about the country of origin of this firearm, i just love the amount of hard work you put into your videos including this video. It's always objective and on the point.... Sir, its pleasure being your subscriber. Hope you have a great day.... :)

[@sootch00]

+Vidya Sagar Thanks Vidya! I am grateful.

[@muddytigeroutdoors4790]

These pistols keep getting better and better. That compact model is doing to be sweet! I've been wanting one in the coyote tan version for a long time. Great review Sootch. -Jacko

[@rickoshea3356]

Good job Sootch !!

[@want2bfrst75]

i love shooting the tp9sf. Only problem with hollowpoints is they are expensive.

[@ZakWilson]

The front sight on the TP9SA can be changed. Loosen the screw from the underside and slide it out the front. It uses CZ75 sights.

[@americaninfidel3457]

Well, after watching great review after great review, I think I'm completely sold on the TP9. The SF model ditching the decocker, going back to the SA trigger, and adding dovetail sights, has me convinced. I know what pistol I'm getting next.

[@TheFacelessMan82]

If this gun holds up after extreme round counts reliably then I can't imagine a better value out there at all. From what I've seen and read on this tp9sf so far it's basically a glock 17 for 200 bucks cheaper.

[@fourleafclover1910]

I got my tp9sf a week ago and had chance to shoot about 100 rounds today. I had one malfunction where it ejected empty ammo but next round got stuck and unable to shoot. I dont know if I manipulated wrong or something but overall I really like the gun. In my opinion, trigger is far superior than glock 19 or beretta apx that I own.

[@hasancanalan7726]

İ've been following you for a while from turkey and i'm really sorry to hear you say kanak instead of turkish or turks because kanak is an insult. god bless you guys stay with guns!!
