Keeping Traditions Alive Since 1953
Secure Transactions provided with 
Canik built a strong reputation with the TP9 series, but the METE SFT is a clear step forward. The ergonomics got a serious overhaul: a redesigned beavertail sits higher on the hand, the trigger guard is double-undercut for a more secure grip, and the front strap texture is aggressive enough to stay put without tearing you up after a long session. The integrally flared magwell makes fast reloads feel natural, and the low-profile ambidextrous slide stop is a real improvement over earlier Canik designs. At 1.74 lbs unloaded, the balance is right where you want it for a full-size gun.
Canik triggers have always been a talking point, and the METE SFT keeps that tradition going. The short-reset single-action trigger has nickel-coated internals, a clean break, and a reset so short that it takes a little adjustment if you're coming from a heavier stock trigger. Once you dial it in, follow-up shots come fast and easy. Independent reviews have consistently called it one of the best factory striker-fired triggers on the market, and it's hard to argue with that.
The slide on this model is finished with Cerakote over nitride, giving you both the good looks of the burnt bronze color and real-world durability underneath. The steel slide features front and rear serrations for positive grip in any weather, and the angled rear sight edge doubles as a one-handed rack surface in a pinch. The optics-ready cut is co-witness compatible, so your iron sights stay on the gun and stay usable after you mount a red dot. The included optics plates support Trijicon RMR, Shield RMSc, and several Canik-brand optic footprints. A 1913 Picatinny rail up front handles a light or laser without any fuss.
The package Canik throws in the box is genuinely hard to beat. You get two magazines (one 18-round flush and one 20-round extended), a reversible IWB/OWB holster, a speed loader, two optics plates, interchangeable backstraps, a cleaning kit, and the Canik punch and tool kit. For someone setting up a new pistol from scratch, that box covers most of the bases right out of the gate.
The METE SFT ships with two optics plates that cover several popular micro red dot footprints. The slide is compatible with the Trijicon RMR, Shield RMSc, and several Canik-branded optics including the ONYXc and PHANTOMc. Note that Canik updated the optics footprint on newer production units, so it's worth checking your serial number against Canik's documentation to confirm which plates apply to your specific pistol.
The METE SFT uses Canik's short-reset single-action trigger with nickel-coated internal components, and it's widely regarded as one of the best factory triggers in the striker-fired segment. The break is clean and the reset is extremely short, which takes a little getting used to if you're coming from a heavier trigger like a stock Glock. Most people who put rounds through it consider it a genuine upgrade without spending anything extra on aftermarket parts.
Yes, the METE SFT was built with both in mind. The full-size frame gives you a 4.46" match-grade barrel for solid accuracy, the loaded chamber indicator lets you confirm status at a glance or by feel, and the Picatinny rail accommodates a weapon light. The 20+1 capacity with the extended magazine gives you plenty of rounds on tap, and the overall reliability of the platform has been well documented through extensive round count testing.
It's a solid competition option, particularly for action shooting sports like IDPA or USPSA. The short-reset trigger, flared magwell for fast reloads, low-profile ambidextrous slide stop, and optics-ready slide are all features that competition-oriented buyers specifically look for. The included 20-round magazine helps in stages with higher round counts, and the gun comes with enough gear to get started without much additional investment.
The slide is finished with Cerakote applied over a nitride-treated steel slide, which means you're getting both corrosion resistance from the nitride and the hardness and color retention of Cerakote on top. The polymer frame is the burnt bronze color itself. It's a good-looking combination that holds up well to regular use and holster wear, and the nitride base layer means the steel is protected even in areas where the Cerakote might see wear over time.
Yes, Canik includes a reversible IWB/OWB holster right in the box, which is a nice touch and genuinely useful for getting started. That said, it's a basic clip-on holster and many owners end up upgrading to a purpose-built Kydex holster over time. The good news is that the METE SFT has been out long enough that there are solid holster options from a number of quality makers available for it.
