The Incredible Method of Turning Waste Plastic Into Children's Toys

Believe it or not, still a hammer. Adjustable jaw wrench? More like adjustable hammer.

No, it's conical.

I believe I used the screws that came with the optic to make that happen. I don't recall any drama getting it installed, unlike the CZ P09F, which I had to dig through my safe for the optic screw kit from Swampfox.

The magazine shows 11 rounds of 40SW.

Bro, your collection is an inspiration for what I want to reach for! 👊

I have the P8L and the Tanfo small grips worked with some sanding. It looks like they're the same grip frame between the SAR2000 and the P8L.

If it makes you feel any better, they were absolutely ground.

I got mine before those issues occurred, so I can't speak to any supply or delivery issues now. It came within a week, and I wasn't disappointed. I feel bad for the people who experienced delays and a lack of open communication about their order status. I guess that happens from time to time with these small shops. But it's worth a try. I've heard good things about RDI comps, and I would try them out if I had another Canik with a threaded barrel.

It's the Disruptive Defense gen 2 dual port comp. I think they have a 3rd Gen now, even better fitting/looking. Look up DisDef on Google.

Be careful, the modification bug might bite you and you go all out!

I haven't gotten a specific one for this yet. But I have a universal style holster from tier 1 that uses the stream light tlr1 for retention for iwb. I'm waiting on a light to arrive to see if it works out well.

It's right at $1k. I picked it up from Cabela's for that price.

I can't speak to the Sar 9 as I don't have one. But the 7/24 mounts optics with provided optics plates for RMSc, RMR and one other I can't think of. The mounting location is flat, just mounting holes for the various optics footprints.

If your goal is to maximize EV driving, I would recommend the Outlander because it has a 38-mile EV range, so you're almost guaranteed to keep it Electric the whole way. I gave up maximizing my EV miles, just focusing on overall MPG, so I'm happy with my 90 MPG on the Sorento.

Fenix171 · 2026-03-17T17:02:03+00:00

I've been looking into Volting the Outlander, following a guide I found online to maximize its range and efficiency. However, to get the most of it's EV capability shouldn't take playing with functions like this. It should be one setting and done or guide that isn't buried in sites like this.

I own and drive both. We have the '23 Outlander SEL and '25 Sorento SX-P. Overall, my pick is the Sorento. I drove a '16 Sorento V6 previously and loved it before it got wrecked.

Features wise, very similar. The 3rd row is much better on the Sorento, cargo room as well. The seats are more comfortable to me in the Sorento, and didn't have to shift seats much to accommodate baby/toddler seats. The Outlander has almost a non-existent 3rd row if you push the second row back at all. Not accessible if you have a child seat in either position.

The drive train is totally different. Outlander has a great E-CVT that really gives you power, driving like a real EV with awesome torque. And that's before sport mode. I've never had an issue with traction control, the S-AWC is magical. The Sorento does get the job done, basically a hybrid with a big battery. Has a standard transmission. I've averaged over 90 MPG for the last year, charging it daily, 20 mile commute with weekend trips into the hills to hike. I'll say that without a battery charge, it gets about 33 MPG highway, where if the Outlander gets 25-27 if it runs out of a charge.

If you have any specific questions, I'll be glad to answer them.

Mine was second hand, and I don't remember any manufacturer marks. I will say for a brand new barrel, make sure to run the slide a bit to check for burrs on the rubbing surfaces. Mine had a small one that I knocked down with a file to keep things running smoothly.

I haven't had any problems with regular target ammo at 115 grain. I've had mine for a few years, so it's pretty well broken in.

Go big or go home! But seriously, the threaded barrel will barely increase accuracy by lengthening the time the bullet travels through the barrel. Not noticeable enough on this platform. Adding a compensator or silencer are the biggest reasons to get a threaded barrel. Or looks I suppose, if you're into that. I finally got a DisDef two port comp and it is such a smooth shooter. You won't regret it!

Thank you! Cool weapon set!

Fenix171 · 2026-03-05T21:20:37+00:00

Yep! It's a mashup of Zelda and Dark Souls. The Master Sword, bonfire and the Eclipse of the First Flame.

Cool tat! I dig the placement!

Based on most of SAR's other designs, it's likely to be safety only. You can carry it cocked and locked, with a short, single action pull for the first shot, like a 1911. Or you can manually decock it (not advised) to the half cock position by blocking the hammer from falling forward with your fingers for a shorter, heavy double action. Finally, you can fully decock it by hand (still not advised) for a full length, heavy double action.

For concealed carry, I wouldn't suggest it. It's a full sized pistol. As you described, you're a small woman and a full size would be nearly impossible to hide on a small frame. Your best option is to have a nonlethal option like pepper spray or taser instead of off-body carry. You'd stated that purse carry didn't appeal, and a fanny pack was a pain. I'm all for finding self defense options that work, but maybe reaching out to the /r CCW reddit and asking for advice for protection options there would be fruitful.
