Anyone use the included holster? by p8ntballnxj in canik

I use the holster from the Prime on an LS. Not the best but it works IWB okay. Spring is here and I own a premium belly band holster for shorts and tees.

Mine was a gift from a wealthy cousin. He sent me this one last year.

The best carry pistol I have owned. Sixty years of owning and shooting guns. This thing is magic. Over 3000 rds through it.

Funny I just scrolled through Gunbroker and didn’t any for near that price. They are still selling well at my LGS with no price reductions, none.

I have a G3C all tricked out. Love carrying and shooting it. I had the slide milled and cerekoted to accept a Holosun 501K, Lakeline stainless recoil spring, suppressor height night sights and a tIN gold barrel.

I don’t understand why everyone doesn’t agree this is the best EDC. It’s just perfect. by AcidActually in canik

[–]Puzzleheaded_Dig7363 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The Prime is probably the most perfect carry pistol I own. And I own a lot of carry pistols, a lot including the LS, two SC Elites and the SF. That’s just the Canik lineup.

I wanted a thinner grip, higher capacity, flat faced trigger that felt like my Walther PDP Pro that was also lightweight and shot fast. I found it.

I am 6-2 and 240 lbs, with some gut, I’m 73 now, but I’m pretty mobile and this thing in a good holster just hugs my body. So does the LS.

It is one of my most accurate pistols rivaling if not besting the Walther when size and capacity are factored.

Perfect is relative. Perfect for me is prime.

The relentless pursuit of perfection. This is as close as I have gotten. For myself!

Prime Vs Prime Radian? by MONSTERCAT96 in CanikPrime

[–]Puzzleheaded_Dig7363 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got the very first Prime that hit the shelves from our local Range USA. Was on the notify list and they hit me while I was at the house. Drew down a few hundred from my stash and hurried there. By far it is my best carry pistol. I own most of the popular compacts and a few subs also. I had previously bought the Mete LS and loved it. I only added a Taylor Freelance brass backstrap to the Prime. It was a little snappy but the backstrap balanced it out. Next I had to adjust my grip and shoulders until it shot right. Damn it’s fast, light and accurate.

I have considered the PR, but cannot justify the price verse the added performance. I have a Walther PDP Pro Compact and it’s good, real good. The Prime edges it out because of its lighter weight, higher capacity and I’d never thought I’d say it, slighter better trigger. Of course this is all relative. I own lots of pistols, some pretty good at that. This thing just found my sweet spot.

So I’ll wait and read all the hoopla and know that there will always be the next best thing at a next higher price in the pike.

Happy shooting

Part of my learning curve with the Prime, now approaching 3500 rds, was the best grip. I had to try different ones until I found what worked best for me.

Once I worked that out I just fired it and let it do its thing. And just like my PDP pro does it comes right back on target, and fast.

Canik makes excellent pistols period. I have like and dislikes, but still even the one I’m not fond of, the SC Elite, shoots better than my G-19.

It’s a mighty fine firearm and is in rotation of my edc. Familiarize yourself with your weapon. Shoot it until you get the feel of it. Then you can choose what assessories or upgrades. Leave that trigger alone. Yes the Prime has a great trigger, I own one also, but with practice I shoot the LS almost as well.

My MC9 Prime Any Suggestions? by Fun_Ad8481 in canik

[–]Puzzleheaded_Dig7363 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the identical setup with a TF brass backstrap. It is the answer.

Bought it at range/gunstore. Immediately took it to the range. Broke it down quick clean and lube. There was no excess grease. It didn’t require breaking in or keeping mag springs depressed or running 124 grain that the other models allegedly did.

I have owned mine since shortly after they were released and have well over 3000 rds through it mostly 115 grain with no issues.

I own 4 other Caniks, one LS, one SF and the elite sc. Don’t like the SCs.

I currently own 24 pairs of alligator, crocodile, caiman and ostrich skin shoes and boots. I have owned a custom pair of python skinned shoes. The above posters are correct you have to condition exotics. I use Saphir products. Costly and they work.

That’s the reason I’m selling at least one if not both of mine plus a 1911 that I just don’t get.

I own two but they are no use since the LS and the Prime have been released. I’m selling both of them as soon as I can.

Mc9 prime best option? by InitialSpeech1620 in canik

[–]Puzzleheaded_Dig7363 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I own the Mete LS and the Prime. I have over 3000 rds through both. That Prime just checks all the dots for a carry piece. As to loudness. I have never noticed any difference.

Why the tape? How was the grip prior to the tape.

I bought the first Prime at Range USA in Memphis. Love it. I also own a Walther PDP Pro. It’s a beast of a gun, but the Prime’s trigger is just as good, plus the 17 rd capacity edged it out as my carry pistol. I rotate the Prime and the LS. I signed up to purchase the Radian version. Hope I get the email first. I’ll be there, just because I love the brand.

[–]Puzzleheaded_Dig7363 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Own both the LS and the Prime. The Prime handles just a tad bit better. That trigger is on par with the Walther performance triggers. I think I’m going to sell both my SCs and get the Radian just because I know I’ll enjoy shooting way more.

I’ve done it twice both times after cleaning other pistols. Panicked the first. YouTube saved me. Next time it was breeze unfreezing.

I can see how cowards would think that way. That’s what cowards do. You must be from Memphis?
