Sent some stuff out for cerakote, decided last minute to throw the canik slide in for ha ha’s and I am fondly in love with this gun again.
Was my first 9mm pistol and I shot it a lot and then I learned about guns and it sat in the safe untouched, unused for years!
Well she’s back bb! Little cerakote, TF backstrap, TFMagwell and an optic (508t) I had lying around.. well damn !

TLDR.
Took old gun and put lipstick on it with enthusiasm

METE MC9 CANIK METE MC9 heavy slide

4 Upvotes

For reference, I’m a woman and injured my hand playing rugby. The injured hand is my dominant hand. I’m able to fire normally and I CAN rack it but it’s a bit heavy.

Just looking for advice on how you’ve made it easier to rack the gun. I’m BRAND NEW to making fun modifications so keep that in mind. I’m seeing that you can change out the recoil spring? However, I don’t want to disrupt the way the gun works because of it. I’ve watched several videos about this specific gun and one of them gave me pause on wanting to change the spring.

Has anyone changed the spring on their METE MC9? It’s my EDC right now but I have another gun on the way that might be my new EDC so that’s not too much of a problem. Thank you in advance to anyone with advice. Much appreciated

Looking to see if i can get a barrel for the prime. I opened up the ports on mine and it is SIGNIFICANTLY louder and im not a fan of that for carry. So I was wondering if this barrel would work on the prime so I could have some options

Triggers Canik Prime Radian w/ Freedomsmith Trigger!

Caniks have one of the best out of the box triggers of any striker fired pistol, but I personally swap mine out with the freedomsmith trigger days after I picked up my Prime Radian.

This one is the Pinnacle Pro, swapped it in a few days after I picked up the Prime Radian. This takes an amazing trigger group... and turns it into a fantastic one.

Great geometry for minimizing takeup, beautiful design and quality, crisp break, same reliability. Love these triggers.

I dont think Ive seen a Prime Radian with their triggers yet so this is just to let some people see what it looks like. Let me know what you guys think.

This being my current EDC Im not modifying Recoil spring, plunger spring, or striker spring as I want to maintain reliability. Probably the only mod I will do to this guy.

TP9SFx Canik Question

0 Upvotes

Good Afternoon, It has come to my attention that I can purchase slides and frames… (just found out yesterday) anywho, does anyone know if the TP9 rival slide will fit onto the TP9SFX frame?

Also would the TP9 Elite SC fit onto any other frame? Or is it just one of those where I have to be SOL.

MY NEW CANIK Issue with grip / Back strap Rival S

Thumbnail

12 Upvotes

For some reason screws don’t like to be screwed into this spot( the spot without a screw). At first I thought it was me, I replaced the back strap with the large version and when going to screw in this spot on the grip the screw stripped almost immediately. So I reached out to century and they sent me some replacement screws pretty fast. It was supposed to come with for but only three came which was fine. The issue is I went to screw into that spot again and what do you know it strips two of the three screws. The last screw I can kind of get in but I’m in able to tighten it without it feeling like it’s about to strip the screw. The plan for now is to just put a little thread locker on that screw not tighten it down to much so it doesn’t strip and hope that works. I’m not sure how many people have this problem with their rival s but I have seen a couple of post. It’s just a minor inconvenience but it’s still pretty annoying considering I’m paying hoping for it work the way it’s intended.

My Prime drills started with a magazine fumble from IWB. I got a little smoother along the way.

I’m coming from carrying a G48 so the ambidextrous slide catch is causing some issues for me.

MC9, MC9L, MC9LS, Prime
All use same frame, and as promised they will be offering the parts.
Canik has said they will not sell the Radian slide as its own SKU.

Rival grey/gold If anyone needs some of the Rival aluminum baseplates (that are not included anymore), I made some. They lock on tighter than the factory ones, and fit all full size (18rd) Caniks!

A user here suggested that I make some replacements for the Canik Rival aluminum basepads, which apparently do not come with the Rival anymore. I also had to figure out how to make the bent floorplate, which is included. These will fit any full size Canik, not just the Rival.

Triggers FRT Issues

3 Upvotes

Gun: TTI Combat

Trigger: Texastriggerusa.com Canik FRT

After installing the trigger the gun no longer racks without slightly pushing the trigger forward. I think this may be causing the issue I am having. When firing the gun it jams on eject after 1 shot. The gun is fairly new. Around 300 rounds through it. Currently using the spring the gun came with and the supplied spacer from the FRT trigger. 115 grain ammo. Newer to pistols so I could use some insight as to what might be going on. After some basic research it seems like a lot of factors could be at play. Maybe I need higher grain ammo or it's not greased enough etc. I have tried my local gun smith but he barely knew what an FRT was. Thanks for any help.
