Bapple, what’s your opinion on the Canik TP9 series pistols?

I think they’re great handguns for the money. Haven’t shot them extensively but people seem to like them a lot.

If they have a decent reputation there’s probably a reason for it. Will they fare as well as a Glock, M&P, FN, HK, etc. for super high round counts? Not sure but I would think for the average gun owner they will do just fine.

I bought a used TP9SA and it seems to shoot really tight groups. I picked it up for 275.00. So far so good.

Both are quality pistols. I have a 19 however it is a little large for my wife. She likes the feel of a S&W Shield It just fits her hand better. It’s really a individual preference!!!

I like my Canik. I can't remember the different designations, but I'd personally avoid the SA version w/ the decocking lever. Once decocked w/ the lever the SAO trigger is "dead" and one will have to rechamber a round to shoot it.

Grip is the same size in girth for either. The 17 is just longer because the magazine holds a couple more rounds.

If she is never going to carry it, I vote for the 17. Longer barrel, little heavier, more rounds in the mag.


This is the correct answer.
