Anyone run a canik?

Durden bought one recently, he really likes it. I haven't shot it or messed with it any. I have a new toy from the CZ custom line, Accushadow, that's got my attention at the moment.

Yeah, I've had a Canik Rival for several months and have 1k or 2k through her. REALLY like the gun! It's pretty much the "easy" button for shooting. Here's what I like:

Pros

• Gun is accurate and reliable. I've had zero failures that were the gun's fault. Had a few FTF due to crap ammo. And when I say "accurate", I mean much better than average. It shoots REALLY good.
• The trigger is probably my favorite of everything I have overall for a reasonable and carryable gun. I love the big, flat trigger. It breaks VERY clean, and the reset is almost not there . . . except you can CLEARLY feel it. This trigger is something from a $2k customized gun.
• The gun comes with tons of gear. It's got a carry rig (right handed unfortunately for me), mag funnel, grips, etc.
• The price was crazy. I think it was something like $670. The guy at the range handed me his, I shot it about 50 rounds, and handed it back to him and told him I'd save up for that jewel. He told me the price, and I handed him the money. I was expecting $1,500 minimum.
• I met the guy who owns Canik. He's a gun fanatic and wanted to talk guns as long as I would. He really DOES love to shoot, and he builds guns for shooters. I like that. Still touch base with him from time to time.
• The sites are great, period. I have no plans to replace or augment them.

Cons

• It uses Canik magazines. The gun would just be THAT MUCH BETTER if it used Glock or CZ mags . . . but not Sig or S&W . . . I don't have any mags for them.

If something awful happened, and I lost everything . . . and I got the insurance check back to replace everything, getting another Rival would be right after replacing my Glock 27 (which is actually barreled for .357 Sig . . . and I would do that again).

I hope that works for you!
