Peebles24 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Just bought and shot my new tp9sf in fde, must say might be the best 370 I've ever spent. Ran flawlessly through 4 mags fresh out the box. I have never been what I would consider a good shot with a pistol but I want to get into 3 gun comp. First six shots all easily on target at ~7 yard big steel knock downs. Moved on to the back steel plates and had a few misses at about 15+ yard. By third mag was consistently hitting 4" round flippers on the back row. So glad I bought the canik over the mp I went for, the trigger is what sold me.

Equin Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Good to hear. I’m seriously looking at the TP9SFL, which has a 5.2” barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeAZ Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Hey, look for the SFX ....If you ever want an optic ??, you will have the best of both worlds..easy to change back to a regular sight..For 3 gun also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Equin Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Thanks for the tip, mikeNM. So is that the only difference between the SFX and SFL, the ability to add an optic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathanb Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 I have an sf elite and an sfx. They are both really good but a bit oversprung Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are both really good but a bit oversprung I did a quick search and found one or two complaints about that at the Canikfanatik forum, like this one: http://canikdiscussions.com/thread/1785/nib-sfx-failure-eject Sounds like breaking it in with NATO 9mm and making sure it's first properly cleaned and lubed once bought helps with that?

OPENB Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 For 125-135pf ammo, a lighter recoil spring & striker spring is a must. I use a 6# Glock striker & 15# Glock recoil on a tungsten guide rod. Perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mro111lland Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Striker spring is a must change in the sfx for recoil spring go to sprintco get the one for the Walter q 5 match with white spring then in the comments when checking out tell them it's for a sfx and they will make sure u get the correct one makes a world of difference lot softer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Equin Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Wow, you guys are awesome. Great knowledge in here. I don’t have an SFX, yet, but if and when I decide to get one, I’ll know what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Screaminyz Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Would this recoil spring setup work with the regular TP9SF also? If not what are my options? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mro111lland Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I would message or call Sprint Co I'm sure they have something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peebles24 Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Went to the range this week again with my bone stock tp9sf. I am so amazed at this pistol. I was able to hold 5" 18 shot group at 20 yard and hold 14 of 18 on full size siloette at 50 yards. Yes 50 yards! Free hand no bench rest tested. I am simply amazed!! Need to state also I am not what I would consider a good shot with a pistol. My friend in town from Germany (former German army sniper) did slightly better than me and said he likes the canik as well or better than his g17.
