Meeting the Canik Mete Series Pistols

Meeting the Canik Mete Series Pistols

Turkish-based Canik, which is named after the mountain that they are located by, has been a notable contributor in the aerospace defense industry for over twenty years and also boasts over a decade as a commanding presence in the manufacturing of firearms.

Canik’s ability and expertise have led to partnerships with companies Lockheed Martin, Airbus and Boeing. These business relationships have led to the development of a high quality polymer that Canik uses to make up their pistols. In 2012, Canik partnered with U.S. based Century Arms to bring their TP series pistols to American consumers. Canik quickly became a topic of conversation amongst gun enthusiasts. In 2018, Canik was named Editor’s Choice for Versatile/Value Pistol by Ballistic Magazine. With their bright engineering and innovative thinking they have forged an impressive lineup.

Canik have taken what they have learned with the great success of their TP series pistols and their adoption by Turkish Law Enforcement and have begun to build the next innovation of a superior firearm.
