Sootch just posted a review on the new Canik TP9SA. It is an update over the original TP9 that received excellent reviews from a lot of people. The new version has a slightly longer barrel along with ergonomic and trigger upgrades. Sootch claims the trigger is easily in the top 3 best striker fired pistols. His direct side by side comparison shows a similar break to the PPQ with a smoother take up.

The Canik is basically a Walther P99 clone made by an arms manufacturer in Turkey. It's imported by Century and should retail for around $300. Apparently mags are manufactured by MecGar and run for around 25$. The old TP9 mags are compatible with a baseplate swap. 18+1 capacity.

Yep, there's a 4 page thread on it somewhere around here... and the video was posted.

Looks like it might be some good bang for the buck.

MSRP is $399. If it sells for $300, I'll grab one. Heck, I'd probably be in at $350.

Canik is putting out some good product inexpensively. Word is they are a ISO 9000 military arms producer so quality should good.

It's on my list as a cost effective nightstand gun. Put a light on it and if I have to shoot some asshole, the cops take it, and I'm not out that much.

If they add a 10mm option for the same or similar price, I'll be all over that.

I was hoping it was going to be $300 +/- like before.  If it was, I'd buy 1.

I agree, and the method for re-cocking the striker allows for the possibility of the slide not going fully forward into battery.

It's dumb and unnecessary.

I would bet that a lawyer came up with the idea.

It seems like its worth a try for that price. Used 17/19s go for more than that.

you say "before" as if you know about something that happened before your time here, so I pose this question: "who are you, really?"

Been here since 06. ISP changed so lost my old email account. I just don't care enough to mess with redoing everything. I'm also eligible for a tank and a pistol icon, I just don't care.

The new one hasn't been released yet.  

Spoke to a Century rep who said they're trying to put it on shelves by December sometime.

In addition to Sootch, Mrgunsngear's review is up too.    

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wue40MlRgV8

Mrgunsngear shows more shooting.  Shoots pretty flat (although the shooter had a hand in that).  He does some accuracy testing at 15m vs Sootch's 7 yards.  

He compares it to a G17 vs Sootch using the first TP9 for comps.  Sootch covers the holster more extensively.

Similar opinion by both (very good striker fired trigger, lot of pistol for the price).

I've actually got one, when it arrived at my dealer, we tested the trigger it broke at 3.74lbs, we also compared it to a VP9 and a PPQ that he had on the shelves, the Canik TP9SA was the lightest and crispest, the ONLY weapon I have that has a comparable trigger is my M&P with an Apex Forward Set Sear and AEK trigger upgrade, that trigger breaks at 3.5lbs and is glass smooth...

This is a pic of my TP9SA, I have added Met Gar +2 base plates from a Beretta M9 to up the magazine capacity to 20rds instead of 18...
