Description

The new Cybergun CANIK TP9 gas blowback pistol has arrived. This awesome new pistol packs some interesting features and looks just like the real counterpart. Licensed by Cybergun you have the correct CANIK and Salient Arms International markings throughout. The pistol is OEM by Armorer Works which is a tell tale sign even just from the red gas router. There is a sprinkling of Glock, Walther and a few other design hints inspired from other manufacturers.
The intersting thing most of all is it uses a striker fire system like the GHK Glock 17 which is a much more expensive item. Armourer Works are only 1 of 2 companies now to not use the tried and tested hammer system which is not realistic at all. The great benefit of this other than realism is there is no drag on the slide like what you get with other pistols that use a hammer system. This makes the pistol super smooth and very consistent. It does feel a little odd however dry firing the pistol without the magazine as you do not get a wall break on the trigger. This changes of course as soon as you have a gassed magazine inserted.
The pistol has a metal slide and polymer frame with a metal flared magwell. The flat faced competition style trigger is chonky and very comfortable to use. The slide release is ambidextrous and the magazine release can be switch over also. The slide is cut to take an adaptor for red dot sights (this is not included in the box) and has good iron sights fitted as standard. You have an accessory rail underneath for your attachments and a live fire indicator at the back of the pistol similar to Walther P99’s. 
This pistol is a great new addition to their lineup and its great to see manufacturers trying something new. We would love to see them do other models like the TP9DA and the sub compact but only time will tell. There will be a video review done by James which should be live on the YouTube channel very soon.
