Available at DEGuns, this exclusive Grey Bomber Cerakote finish model represents the pinnacle of Canik's commitment to precision engineering and user-centric innovation.

The Canik Mete SFT series, named in honor of a legendary Turkish general renowned for his formidable warrior prowess, embodies strength, precision, and unwavering performance. This pistol is crafted for those who demand excellence from their firearms, offering features typically found in custom builds at an accessible price point. Whether you're upgrading your current firearm, entering competitive shooting, or seeking a dependable handgun for home defense, the Mete SFT provides a comprehensive solution.

Unparalleled Design and Core Features

The Canik HG5636LGBN Mete SFT is built on a robust polymer frame, featuring an integrally flared mag-well that facilitates swift and seamless magazine changes – a crucial advantage in high-stress situations or competitive environments. The aggressive texturing on the grip, extending to the front strap, ensures an incredibly secure and stable hold, minimizing slippage even with gloved hands or in adverse conditions. This enhanced stability contributes directly to improved shot placement and faster follow-up shots, making it a favorite among shooters focused on performance.

A distinct double undercut trigger guard provides a more comfortable and higher grip on the pistol, allowing for superior recoil management and enhanced control. This ergonomic detail, combined with the low-profile slide stop lever, ensures that the shooter maintains a natural and intuitive grip throughout the firing process. The angled rear sight edge is designed for emergency one-handed manipulations, showcasing Canik's dedication to practical, user-friendly features under any circumstances.

Optics Ready Advantage: Seamless Integration for Enhanced Accuracy

One of the most significant advantages of the Canik Mete SFT is its co-witnessing optics-ready slide cut. This versatile design accommodates a wide array of red dot sights, from compact options like the Trijicon RMRcc to various micro-optics, ensuring that you can easily mount your preferred aiming solution. The ability to co-witness your iron sights with your red dot provides a crucial backup in case of optic failure and aids in initial sight acquisition. For shooters looking to maximize their accuracy and speed, especially in dynamic shooting scenarios, the pre-cut slide saves time and money on aftermarket modifications.

The inclusion of two optics bases in the package means you're ready to mount your chosen optic right out of the box, eliminating the guesswork and additional purchases often associated with optic-ready platforms. This thoughtful inclusion is part of Canik’s commitment to providing a complete, ready-to-perform system.

The Legendary Canik Trigger: Precision at Your Fingertips

At the heart of the Canik Mete SFT's outstanding performance is its world-renowned mass-produced trigger mechanism. Often lauded by firearm enthusiasts and professionals alike, this legendary trigger offers a crisp break, minimal overtravel, and a short, positive reset. This exceptional trigger performance maximizes shooter comfort and confidence, significantly improving the ability to execute fast, accurate follow-up shots. For competitive shooters, a superior trigger translates directly into higher scores and faster times. For self-defense, it means increased precision when it matters most.

The single-action only (SAO) trigger design ensures consistent pull every time, a critical factor for precision shooting. This focus on trigger excellence is a hallmark of Canik firearms, setting them apart from many competitors in the market.

Canik’s reputation is built on a foundation of reliability and durability, stemming from its extensive experience as a global leader in government firearm contracts.

Superior Dispersion Performance and Barrel Longevity

A gun's ability to consistently group shots on target, known as dispersion performance, is the ultimate indicator of its accuracy. Canik firearms are celebrated for having among the best dispersion performance in the world, a testament to their precision manufacturing and quality control. The 4.46-inch match-grade black barrel on the Mete SFT is a key contributor to this exceptional accuracy. Manufactured with advanced technology derived from Canik’s aerospace and aviation background, these barrels are not only incredibly precise but also remarkably durable.

The aggressive grip texture, interchangeable backstraps, and precisely contoured frame contribute to a natural point of aim and superior control.

The full-size frame with a beavertail ensures a high, comfortable grip that effectively distributes recoil, reducing muzzle flip and allowing for quicker sight recovery between shots. Whether you have large or small hands, the adaptable design of the Mete SFT provides a secure and comfortable fit, minimizing fatigue during extended shooting sessions and enhancing overall accuracy.
