Turkish Pistol Roundup! Tisas vs Canik vs SAR

TP9SF vs SAR9 vs Zigana PX-9

[v.germanb]

Turkish gun manufacturers make superb modern combat handguns of high quality at affordable fair prices. I like all three pistols, being Canik my personal favorite but I have nothing against SAR or Tisa. People that reject or despise Turkish made pistols have no idea of how good they are because they haven't care to even try something different than Glock. Their loss!

Big Glock and cz guy here. I bought a sar bp6c 6-7 years ago when they came out (polymer cz75 clone) I think it was 279 bucks. Put a couple thousand rounds through it and sold it for more than I paid a few years laters. I bought a zigana px9 during the pandemic for 309. I actually did a 1K round review here on YouTube. There wasn’t any info on them at the time. I just saw a gen3 version the other day and plan on picking one up due to the optics cut, Glock sights and flat faced trigger. I like they kept the p226 mags on the gen3’s

I have 2 Caniks ( TP9SFX, and Rival Darkside) and I have the Sar 9x Platinum edition. I must say they are definitely exceptional pistols. I have heard about Tisas pistols also being very well made but I haven't shot with one yet. It does look as if the US markets are starting to take notice of Canik and Sar because I have seen an uptick in their prices the past year. Tisas is probably just behind due to them being newer in the market but I'm sure that they too will be appreciated for their quality here in the near future. I'm very happy with my Turkish pistols and I actually enjoy shooting with them more than my glock.

My first handgun was a sar9. I switched to Canik because the magazines are interchangeable and better triggers.

BOUGHT 2 TISA ZIGANA 3 MONTHS APART, LOVE THE GUNS.

I have the TP9SF as well as the PX9... both are exceptional firearms. Looking at picking up a SAR soon. And yes, I own several Glocks.

Canik sfx Rival my new favorite pistol. Very nice

The Turks are really making some great hand guns would you say they are giving US made handguns a run for there money I have several different makes and they all work flawlessly, I came across a few things that were adaptable but after a few test rounds that problem was eliminated doesn't take long to adjust to. And the best thing is the affordability, plus they have great names for each 👍

Glad you made the comment about your kids and the safety. I wish more people would think like you.

I bought a Sar B6 about 3 months ago. I’ve put about 1k rounds through it with no problems. I paid $199 for the thing. I’m blown away by its accuracy, build quality, and reliability. I bought a 19 round extended CZ75 mag and a standard 17 round CZ75 mag and both run flawlessly. It’s my EDC. I love it.

@Snake Doc, Thanks for the video, nice job! One suggestion would be to include the trigger pull for each gun. I agree Canik's are great values and also have lifetime warranties. It looks like the Zigada and SAR only have a 1 year warranty...

[volksrodder]

Great video. Really enjoy that you chose the SAR 9 as #1. I just purchased a SAR 9cx. Great shooter and superb grip and trigger. Stay safe.

The custom cerakote color of the Sar9 slide gives off RoboCop vibes… 🤙

[davidkeetz]

the PX9 is my nightstand gun as well. haha. I was surprised at just how good it was when I got it. I really didn't expect much at that price point but my god, they made a good firearm straight out of the box - and with how light the trigger is on mine, I'm pretty happy that it came with a manual safety. I do agree if I could change anything about the Tisas it would be that very bottom of the grip, I eventually ended up putting the small size grip panels on it to combat that a little bit - at some point if I ever run out of other projects or I get super creative and need a break from the other projects I may end up molding my own back panel for it - but again, for the price it's really hard to beat.

Thanks for the tip on the 320 magazine bodies !

[t.k.morris]

Your rankings SAR9 #1 / TP9SF #2 / Zigana PX-9 #3 .... Very much appreciate your video presentation.
Currently I can order a SAR9 for $249.99 and get a $30 rebate. Would you say that is a no brainer purchase?

[TheRed]

I have a Sar K2p and just purchased the tisas zagana px9 g2. Found out the K2p fits the holster that came with the px9 better actual no rattling. Just wanted to put that out there as a FYI. Great vid Doc.
Also got a Fobus Standard Holster RH Paddle SP11 for the k2p but the Px9 fits it better.

I love the 5 Caniks I have but am considering Sar9, Girsan and Tisis. Thanks for the review.

[StormFalcon]
