SAR vs Canik quality?

[Moken]

I've not even held a SAR pistol. I am quite pleased with my three Canik. But I have the disease and wondering if the SAR is unequal or better footing with Canik. I like the look of the stainless SAR pistol.

IMO the quality (fit & finish) is comparable. I haven't heard of near as many issues with SAR pistols as with the Canik TP 9s, but then again I don't think there are many SAR owners running their guns in competition.

Have there been issues with the Canik TP-9s?

My 2 have been flawless so far.
Is there something I should be watching for?

Nothing that Century's customer service isn't happy to help with. The most common problem I see are cycling issues/FTF/FTE from new owners. Locking the slide back for a few days or switching to 124gr. or 147gr. ammo to break in usually takes care of those.

Thanks.

You're welcome If you're on FB look into the Canik Fanatik group to keep up with current events, they're also giving away a TP9SA as part of a holiday package.

I'm still leaning towards getting a TP-9SFx.... that I walked into the gun store to purchase - when I walked out with my SP-01Tac.

It's still there waiting for me.
But then again, I'm still thinking about a TS Orange too.
Decisions decisions decisions.

I want it all - NOW! LOL

I should clarify, the issues I mentioned are with TP series striker fired pistols, not clones.

I have both brands. The Sar seems to be a little below the Canik in my opinion but that is just my opinion.
My Sar and Canik pistols have been very good so far.
I think the Witness P series is a very good brand/model also.
I have not really had any problems yet with them except for the Sar, the trigger pin initially tried to walk out the right side of the pistol and the slide lock/take down pin shaft has loosened up just a little.
The trigger pin problem was taken care of by the use of green Loctite, may have to get a new slide lock/take down pin.
As for accuracy and function they perform on level with my CZs.
Sar B6P, Witness P S, Canik C-100 and a SF Elite, all in 9mm.

I have a Canik C-100 and a SAR K2-45.  Both have been very good with the C-100 needs a little trigger work.  The SAR .45 has a great trigger right out of the box but needed some fluff and buff and break in for it to feed reliably.  The grip is full, 14 rounds of .45, but similar feel to a CZ 75 maybe a CZ97 but I have not handled a CZ 97 yet.  I only wish I had picked up a spare K2-45.

I have one of each, and am quite pleased with both of them.  Since one is polymer, and the other is all steel, it's more like  apples and oranges than Ford and Chevy. I have no complaint with either one, and would buy either one over again.

The SAR you mentioned with the chrome slide is model number 400425 with a 13 round capacity.  Not sure how readily available that firearm may be at the present.  You might have a hard time locating one right now as EAA may no longer be the importer of the SAR line.  There may be a distributor in Texas who is taking over that role.

[rabble_rouser]

While EAA is no long importing Sarsilmaz, some retailers may still have stock imported through them but I haven't seen a B6P compact in over a year, they sold out
fast.

TR Imports is no longer importing Sarsilmaz but again, some retailers probably have TR Imports in stock.

SAR-USA is now the sole importer of Sarsilmaz handguns. They have begun shipping out stock to Sports South Distributors, with the first arriving to be:

B6P in both black & stainless
B6P compact in both black & stainless
SAR 9 in both black & stainless

I was looking at the 9mm stainless on theshootingstore.com.TR imports is selling them.
