Buds has the pricing up on the factory cerakoted pistols on their website today, no pics on their site yet but you have already seen them here anyhow. Last  I would bet that these won't long on their site.

I just finished loading the pictures myself so you should see them now.

Something I should have clarified: I said we have the exclusive on ALL new Caniks, but I realized we forfeited a couple models during our exclusivity negotiations, which includes the models you see with Tristar.  This includes the L-120, which we were carrying for awhile and still have a few left of.  Once those are gone, we probably won't get more. 

@epoole: The Canik 120's you've seen with 17 round mags are the same gun as ours listed with 15 round mags, but we ultimately decided to go with a different magazine with a sturdier spring and bumper pad.  The springs are easily interchangeable if you decide you want the extra two rounds, which the magazine will indeed accomodate.

YES +1 on the Canik Piranha.

I forgot to mention that I've been assured we have the Piranha coming.  It MIGHT not be as soon as we'd hoped, but we do have them being worked out so I'll keep everyone updated.

I don't know if you guys can make it happen, but I would be very interested in seeing the Canik55 S-FC 100 brought over.  It's essentially the Shark C with a rail and ported barrel like the fullsize Shark FC, and with ambi controls like the Stingray.  Here is the link to the Canik55 page for the gun:

Glad to see you guys are bringing even more of these great guns over.  I am drooling over some of these new factory cerakote models on your site now. :D

Looking forward to the piranha model again we appreciate your efforts and thanks for the heads up on the 120 L model. Now can you go to work on getting some of the other Sar miodels, they have some interesting models as well.

Stingray C is ambi clone, the Pirahna CF is the direct clone, essentially.

Definitely looking forward to purchasing a Piranha - F.  8)

Sooooo. Did I miss something? I thought I could just slap on some off the shelf sight kits for my Shark FC! I was assuming they would be the same as CZ75B, like the 120 line. Am I in trouble? Has anyone successfully put a custom front sight on the Shark FC?

Thanks for the heads up!
The color options are nice and I bet they'll be well received. While you've got their ear, the FC in OD and Titanium would be REALLY sharp. Any ETA or word on the Stingray's?

It is sharp looking.
Here's what Titanium really looks like

Brian A answered my sight question. (out of this thread) The front sight is not swappable with any known aftermarket or production sights yet on the Shark FC.

The first photo in the thread made the titanium look greenish, picture just above looks more like other samples I have seen. Personally not a fan of non-metallic colors other than the old standby bluing and black. My T-100 sported new wood grips after first week. The sight situation is seemingly simple manufacturing fix to enable fitting aftermarket choices...such as CZ. Academy Sports markets Canik55 also but unlike Bud's have yet to offer choices not factory applied. No doubt they are a great pistol at a very reasonable price but as the fever subsides buyers will get more selective on buying a pistol with limited sight selection. I find mine fine, but I am not a hobbyist or competitor.
