Took 3 pistols to the range one of which was the TP9SFX.
Using a bench rest, all 3 shot well, but the TP9SFX was shooting extremely low at 15 yards.
Aiming was the same for all 3 which was center of target.
The TP9SFX was shooting about 4 inches lower than the others.
The debate is whether to make it a dedicated red dot pistol or sell it.

Does your TP9SFX shoot low or dead on?

Mine shoots dead on.

Edit:  Never benched it though.  Usually shoot two hand supported at 10-15 yards.

Mine was spot on from 3 yards to 25 yards

You could always try a shorter front sight from somewhere like Dawson.

The first thing you need to do is have another experienced shooter try it and see what they get.  As an instructor, I've had many people bring me their gun saying the sites were off.  It's usually something else.  I'm not saying you can't shoot, so don't be offended.  Just have someone else try it out and see if they are off the same amount and direction.

Not sure the front sight can be any shorter.

Mine is dead on, and has a trigger as good as a more expensive PPQ.

Mine is dead on at 25 yds.

To correct POI, You can either change out the front to lower/shorter one, or change the rear to taller one after calculation:

Or send it back to Century Arms.

Took it back out to the range and really hate to say this but apparently user error.
All my sights are 3 dots and with this one the rear sights are plain black.
It will take some getting used to. May opt to make this one a dedicated red dot host.
Next range trip will be to focus on the trigger. Not sure if I truly like it.

Work out for you yet? Mine is a tack driver. I think it was even more accurate with the irons than the red dot. Or maybe I was just shooting better that day.

Mines a shooter.  I really like it.

Tried it with the red dot and just not a fan.
Purchased the 3 dot sights but think I may just sell this.
The reset on it is awesome but the trigger overall is blah.
All the reviews read "...almost as good as a Walther" or "...cheaper version of a Walther"
I have a Walther in another caliber and will sell this Canik and get a Walther in 9mm.

Regarding the trigger, it is okay out of the box when comparing to a Glock.  It needs an upgrade just like any other rack grade pistols.  I'm sure you can sell it quick in today's climate.
