Canik TP9 METE SFT - a pistol for dynamic shooting with an excellent trigger mechanism
The Canik TP9 METE SFT uses an SAO trigger mechanism without self-tensioning, which is considered by most shooters to be unrivaled in this price range. The gun has a trigger with a short reset and low resistance, which allows for rapid and controlled fire.
A trigger safety protects against uncontrolled firing.

The manufacturer has paid special attention to the ergonomics of the pistol, so the manipulators have been conveniently placed within easy reach, identical to the typical SFx sporting version. The user can also adjust the size of the magazine latch to his own preference, with the help of additional caps included in the kit. The pistol is powered by an 18- or 20-round magazine with an enlarged footprint, the large surface of which provides a better grip when changing and retrieving the magazine.
