    Hey man how'd you do the ports? Did you just drill it? Or did you use a mill? I'm guessing you just tossed that barrel in a drill press and I don't really see why that wouldn't work. I assume any burr created by the process would be dealt with by a few hot slugs traveling down the bore.

    why would you not external carry your canik if in a state that allows constitutional carry? If society collapses this may be what I would have external holster. the 18+ 1 is attractive, it just makes sense to me and on all other guns i have a safety.
    also, if this is a competition gun why not rig it out with a freedomsmith trigger, which while canik triggers rocks oem out of box the freedomsmith with spring job and #2 rings takes you to a 2lb pull..... the freedomsmith by itself eliminates the travel while holding to oem lb pull.
    also your stippling, thatis rubberized right, it didnt look like talon, also did you wrap the back swell?
    lastly, your porting? im interested. who did your machining?

      @Suttonusmc 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Using Browning 115gr range ammo which I have been using since I bought the gun. Lately when a round is racked it gets jammed/misfeed and then will load that round if forced. Round will eject and run fine but the will jam again.

    • @primeddefender
      @primeddefender  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @Suttonusmc the few malfunctions I had were similar with the fiocci range dynamics 115. I switched ammo and it ran fine. My other guns did the same with it. I believe it was out of spec ammo. Not saying that's the reason for yours for sure but worth a try.

    Turkish guns have usually been a failure for ages...even if the quality was right the bastards never delivered the products or parts.....Been 7years and still waiting for the Zenith HK 223 copies of which only 20 were sent.....I would say 95% of importers who dealt with Turkish companies stopped quick and regretted it. But the polymer Canik has been a success and a far better choice than that polymer SIG garbage and worth the price....better than Smith & Wesson by far too, which has many quality control issues.
