  1. I spoke with the Canik reps at The Gathering at the Clinton House on Friday and was told the parts supply would improve greatly once the Canik manufacturering plant was up and running in the US.
  2. I bought it from a local gunshop in August of last year
  3. I have polymer and steel Caniks and all have been 100% reliable. Two of the three are heavily modified and one is completely stock. I don't interchange parts on any of my guns.
  4. The FP plunger in my Rival S with a Freedomsmith trigger functions as it should. The liability of selling a trigger that disables a safety function is not something a manufacturer would accept. I have Freedomsmith triggers in 2 SFX's and they also function correctly.
  5. I have been shooting one of the original ones since 2018. I have changed the ignition parts and grip. I run STI gen 2 mags with no problems.
  6. Thanks for the info. I cannot replicate the issue with any of my mags.(std and +5) I would ask for a replacement pistol as something is out of spec with yours. I ended up getting a new 2011 limited pistol after several warranty attempts to fix a frame that was out of spec. Hopefully the customer service at Canik will get better as the 8 week turnaround time is ridiculous.
  7. This a common issue with CZ pistols
  8. I have tried everything I can to over insert magazines in my Rival S and can't do it. I have forced them repeatedly but can't cause this issue. What am I missing?
  9. I have both and have not had any issues with either. I shot a match today with my steel gun in the pouring rain and it was flawless
  10. I had an issue with nose dives and replaced the magazine springs with HD Wolfe springs. This resolved the issue on my guns.
  11. I have small hands and have no issues with the slide lock. The slide locks on both my SFX's protude out much further and I haven't had an issue with them either. I run the large grips.
  12. My S has been 100% reliable both out of the box and with spring changes. I shoot 135pf ammo and so far have not had any issues. I installed all the grips and really like the large size. I stippled the grip to match my SFX. The trigger now breaks at 2lb 4oz.
  13. What did you do to get the ejector assembly out. I tried to remove mine but could not get it out.
  14. If the springs were stock I would clean the firing pin channel. If the springs have been changed the recoil spring may not be strong enough to hold the slide completely in battery.
  15. I stippled the large grip which really changed how the gun feels. It is much easier to control my grip.
  16. Already have a 6lb glock striker spring. (Have 2 SFX's set up for Carry Optics with all the mods). I put a SS guide rod and a 15# commander spring at functioned but needed the lighter striker spring. With the SS guide rod I had a problem getting the slide to move forward. I finally got it apart but don't know what the interference was. I run Sig 320 guide rods in my other Caniks with no problem.
  17. Just left the range and yes I like it a lot. Need to change the trigger and recoil spring and find a good holster.
  18. Picked up a Rival S Chrome today. LGS had 2 priced at $895. I really like my SFX's but couldn't pass this up.
  19. I shot the Rival S at The Gathering at the Clinton House Plantation yesterday side by side with the Rival. Canik had a booth at the range with most of their guns available to shoot. The S is a completely different feel. I liked it a lot but still prefer my SFX. It reminded me of the CZ Shadow which I shot for several years. I plan to buy one at some point to add to my Canik collection.
  20. https://taylorfreelancestore.com/wolff-spring-for-canik-m-p-old-hk-vp9/p30-hk-45-140mm-3-to-5-/
  21. I had to replace my springs with Wolfe HD springs when I went to the +4 extensions.
  22. I do this all the time. 55gr inside 200 and 72 gr eld-m past that. I zero with the 200 gr at 200 yds. I just shot a DMR match out to 500yds using 55 gr ammo and had no issues hitting 2 moa targets. I prefer the 72 gr eld-m bullets but didn't have enough loaded for this match.
