Canik Pistols Locally

**keystoneman 85** · April 2nd, 2024, 07:09 PM

Hey,

Wasn't sure if this should be posted down in the Where To Spend Money > Shops section but figured this might get a little more traction - if it needs moved that's cool. I'm pretty sure I want to pick up my first Canik pistols. To date I've had experience with many semis from Glock, Sig, Smith, Ruger, etc but I've never handled a Canik. That said I'd like to hold one prior to purchasing.

I'm looking for the:
Canik Mete MC9 and the Canik Mete SFT or SFX.

I've called around locally and can't seem to find anyone who has all 3 or at least 2 of the 3 in stock to hold. Either shops are not carrying them, or they have a couple Caniks but not these models.

I'm in Berks county and would love to keep the drive an hour and under if I can.

Any suggestions?

I've tried a lot of the larger shops like Crow Arms, Sportsmans Shop, Cabelas, etc.

It'd be over an hour, but Johnston's Sporting Goods in Croydon, PA usually has a good selection of cabins at some really good prices. Fairless Defense in Fairless hills might have some, as well as modern munitions. All 3 are within about 20-30 minutes radius. So you could potentially hit all 3 in one stop.

Try Extreme Gun Works in Emmaus....not far from I-78/309

Tanner's and The Bunker both carry Caniks. Saw a metric shit ton of Caniks at JW Firearms a couple of weeks ago. Didn't notice the models because I don't care about Caniks, but there were several. Best to call before driving to any shop.
