If I tally up all my caniks we are at about 23,000 rounds between 6 pistols with no failures, as of now we are putting our shooting focus on the two custom tristar P120s that I built over the winter. The only canik that I am still shooting is my custom shark compact. As far as I am concerned the tristars are caniks. I still have not had any permant or hard core failures with a canik.

I don't keep track of round counts, but I'd estimate I've got at least 300 or more rounds through each of my caniks (shark FC, p120, t100, s120) with no issues in function.  The triggers are all breaking in nicely and I'm really getting a feel for these guns. The only issue I'd say for any of them is the finish on my t100 is having some issues. I think it may be just an isolated issue since I'm not seeing it on my others.

I have a C-100 (black) I bought for my wife in November of 13' that has 750 rounds through it. No visible wear, no problems to date, and has actually loaded empty cases when trying to teach my wife to clear a jam. This is 115grain, 124 grain ball, 147 grain JHP and 147 grain ball

T120 Desert Tan, 250 rounds, most are 115 grain ball, 147 grain ball and 147 grain JHP only about 25 of each. functions without problems.

It's not to hard for us to keep track of our round counts because every week we do a practice session averages out to about 150 rounds per pistol and at right now we are trying to shoot minimum 2 matches a month so that about another 150 per pistol. Devon and I primarily shoot 4 pistols a Canik shark fullsize , a shark compact and two fullsize Sar B5 polys. last year Devon shot a 120 steel and that is still his back gun for matches ,but he prefers the light weight pistols. I shot the compact shark all last year. Last Sunday I switched up and shot my CZ 97 and had a lot of fun doing so. Shortly we want to shoot the P120's in ESP and try them out. I am just now finishing their testing. I like to run about 1500 rounds through pistol to ensure no issue will crop up.

Been awhile since the last post on this thread I see. I have been remiss in updating counts on this fine pistol, so here I go... It has been a total of three trips since my last update and at that time my count was over 2200. Ammo in South Texas has been much easier to find and the price has dropped ALOT! The local Academy has had some at $10.99 for a box of 50, so at .23 a round I have indulged a bit. Total rounds in the last three trips I, with some help from wife and kids, put another 1000 rounds through it. This brings the count up to 3150 without any hic-ups or unusual wear. I think I need to pick-up another one of these so the wife can have her own. Fantastic gun!

really all my shooting with caniks and Sars as well is realy happening because of the continued experiments with different sights and internals.  I shot several of them every week. Ammo costs has been killing me on the other hand . I just got another 3000 rounds of 9mm in this week cause I was running low.

Canik Stingray, 900 rounds, no problems.  The satin chrome is holding up very good and is easy to clean.

Currently over 5,500 rounds through my C-100. Shows a little holster wear. Shoots great. Very accurate.
