Top 5 Turkish Budget Pistols 2020

[@boogaloonick7526]

I picked up a TP9SF last week. Amazing gun for the price. I am now very much a fan of Turkish firearms.

[@gunsammodrones]

Agree... I believe I now have 6 Turkish pistols and the quality you get with them is amazing... Its sad to say that other manufacturers could learn a thing or two from them...

[@adamg2335]

Thanks for the feedback Niki. I wish I'd have picked a Canik TP9 when they were retailing in Pakistan for around 450-500USD, the import ban Kicked in around 4/5 years ago and most Turkish handguns now are around 1,500 USD and hard to find. The best thing I did at the time was buying a Stoegar Cougar 9mm when they were cheap. I live in Europe but that Stoegar has been my most trusted Licensed (Legally Permitted) EDC everytime I visit for past 8 years. You guys are really lucky having all those beauties available to you at such amazing prices.

[@gunsammodrones]

Thats horrible that guns are that expensive over there... We are lucky here for sure...

[@ericermady4151]

Hi where did you buy your tp9sf? I've been looking around to find one but, I'm unsuccessful here in Tennessee.

[@cecilsharps]

I'm a big fan of the turkish 1 to 1 clones. I put wilson combat springs and a trigger in my regard. I'm really tempted by the doublestack 380 beretta clone that is starting to trickle into gunshops.

Great video, I've really been leaning toward grabbing a SAR 9. I've Owned a SAR B6p 9mm for a few months now and it's been a great gun. The price made me feel like I was in on a secret nobody else knew about. lol.

Just got my sar9 and I love it. Canik tp9sfx is my next purchase. Awsome video.

[@gunsammodrones]

Awesome

[@katanapr3]

I was a my local gun shop today and they had a Girsan Regard, is maybe the best Girsan of all. They also had a Girsan MC 28, I didn't like anything about it. They had an used Stoger it looked decent. Sarsilmaz makes really good guns, they had a few Sar 2000 that are really nice. I personally have a Sar K2 45C and I love it. In my opinion out of all the guns that are coming out of Turkey Canik seems to be the best and they are proven guns. Sarsilmaz seems to be build like battle tanks and are reliable. With all others I have zero experience so I can't comment on them.

[@gunsammodrones]

Your gun store sounds awesome to have all those awesome pistols... I hope you picked up one

[@katanapr3]

@@gunsammodrones I go by at least twice a week to check what they are bringing in. The store is super busy and inventory don't last long. I bought the TPR9 about a month ago and about two weeks ago I bought the K2 45C. I got my eye on that Sar 2000 but can't keep buying guns, I need to buy ammo to be able to shot the guns I already have. Now days ammo is hard to come by.

[@gunsammodrones]

Yep

Excellent review of these fine Turkish imports. I own pretty much all the above pistols except for the Tanik. Your description of the SAR 9 is pretty accurate. Its a cross between a HK VP-9 lower with a Glock upper. What would your description be on the Tanik TP-9. To me it looks (at least the side) like a Walther PPQ M5. Thanks again for reviewing these lesser know firearms. Also, do not forget about the Tisas brand. I subscribed.

[@rbyegin6593]

Did you mean canik

[@gunsammodrones]

Canik is awesome... Its a great shooter and very reliable... I think Tisas is also fantastic... I own the M1911A1 and feel that its the best clone of a Colt 1911 on the market... Ill do a review soon

[@Largo5441]

I purchased a Stoeger recently, after confirming the initial release mags had been replaced by a newer version.

As an owner of some Turkish firearms, if people aren't familiar with Sar Usa, Girsan and Tisas... they should be!! Thanks for the video, have you done a current update showcasing some new ones? Have you kept all shown in the above video?

Just waiting to pick up my Girsan Regard MC...I knew zero about it when I went to the gun store, looking at the case full of really unique pistols, the Girsan looked different, so I looked further. All metal, now I’m asking the clerk to show me the gun...up close it looks and feels special, better made, and despite those thoughts occurring almost instantly, my decision to buy it happened that quickly as well. The price was more than decent and surprised it was as low as it was. If it was as good as I initially thought, I’d be happy
