Century International Arms Inc. Arms TP9SF Single 9mm 4.46 18+1 Black Interchangeable Backstr - Blue/Black, 4.46" Barrel, 18+1 Rounds

Excellent all around gun, A+++!

Very pleased with this purchase! This handgun is very reliable and accurate out of the box. No issues, eats anything you feed it and it comes with two 18 round magazines, cleaning rod, brush and holster. Excellent trigger and feels very good in the hand. A very good value for your money. I have a few other Canik pistols and the quality is excellent on each one. The only negative that I have with the gun is the sights, instead of a 3 dot sight is has a U notch on the rear. No big deal though, sights can be changed if need be, just takes some getting used to. Another great buy from Buds.

One of the best guns i have so far

I absolutely love my purchase. I made an excellent choice. I plan to purchase another very soon.

The holster was shipped with a crack in it. I called Century Arms and they promptly shipped me another one. I and my son went to the range to break in the new gun and we put 250 rounds through it with Federal 115 grain brass ammo. We had several FTF events but what was odd was that it happened to me once and my son several times (7 or 8). It seemed like the frequency went down as we got to around 200 rounds(could have been a coincidence). I have since bought some Sig Sauer hollow points(115 and 124 grain) and had no FTF. Bud's had one of the best prices out there and I felt confident in their reputation. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Buds did not disappointment me with this purchase. I've purchased several firearms from this company and the prices, customer service and shipping has been very good. I will be sharing this experience to my friends and relatives. Buds has shipped to my designated FFL without any issues. I will continue to do business with this company as long as my wife does not cut off my allowance.

Great service from Bud's. I shot only 100 rounds (124 gr.) with only 2 failure to eject within the first 30 rounds. I like the pistol and it is accurate.

BLUF: Extremely pleased with this pistol, and if you're looking for a quality and accurate full sized weapon for a very fair price, you can't go wrong. Initial impressions: A sturdy and substantial pistol, but fits well in my size M hand. Controls are well placed, and there are just 2, slide stop and mag release. I like the sights, easy and fast to acquire, easy to shoot of the "flash", and let you pull of a precise aimed shot on demand. Great value, pistol, 2 mags, a functional paddle / belt OWB holster, mag loader, cleaning kit, second backstrap and a hard case. The holster does sit FAR off the hip due to the cant adjustment, but it's a lot better than nothing. I plan to use this pistol at some informal practical pistol matches, and it would be great for that. Fit and finish are very good, nothing caught my eye as a flaw, and the machining quality is very high. Strips down like a Glock, slide back a bit, pull the tab down, and let it slide forward. Did my standard "Field strip, quick clean and lube" routine on it and took it to the range. Range Impressions: WOW!!!! This gun makes me look better than I really am. First 20 rounds made basically one ragged hole at 5 yards, firing at a "round a second" pace (range rules). trigger has some very light initial takeup, then you hit the wall. From there it's about 5 pounds (max) pressure and it breaks like glass. Reset is super short, and the thing just swallows any recoil and settles right back on target. No failure to feeds / ejects in the first 100 rounds of assorted bulk brass ammo. I am going to really enjoy taking this one out on "Monday Range Day". Overall, I'd give this 5 of 5 stars, the only (and I'm really pushing here) nag I can find is that the slide lock sits VERY flush to the frame when the slide is forward, so you have to reach a bit to engage it. When the slide is locked back, it sticks out nicely and is easy to sweep off. I personally like this feature, makes it much less likely for me to accidentally ride the slidelock and engage it. I'm probably going to mount a light/laser on it, make it the primary home defense weapon.

This is one of the best kept secrets in the gun world. Where else are you going to get a durable and reliable, polymer framed high capacity 9mm Luger pistol with a match grade barrel, Cerakote finished slide, Warren Tactical sights, two 18-round Mec-Gar magazines, a paddle holster, and cleaning brushes...for under $400? Right after I picked up the gun, over the course of two weekends, I put 500 rounds through it, without a single malfunction. This gun is very ergonomic. It has wider controls than a Glock, making it easier to disassemble and operate. The backstrap is interchangeable for people with different sized hands. It has a metal, not plastic, guide rod. The sights are easy to see and use. It has a strong extractor and a loaded chamber indicator, which is very handy. It has a picatinny rail for a flashlight or laser. All in all, this is a quality pistol. I am quite pleased with my purchase. I recommend it someone who wants all the features of the Walther PPQ but with a price tag equal or less than a S&W Shield, but with a higher capacity. If you are in the market for a good 9mm Luger pistol, I would give this Turkish-made handgun some serious consideration. You could not spend less and get better. This is great bang for the buck. Thanks Buds!

Thanks Bud's for a smooth transaction, as usual! I bought the TP9SF due to all the positive reviews I see online and in videos posted. I never handled one before I bought it because no local shops carry them. All the videos I've watched made it look like a much larger gun than it is. It's a perfect sized gun that fits in my hands great! I just got it yesterday so I haven't shot it, but it looks very well made, takes down super fast and easy. Mine came with a holster, 2 mags, bore brush and cleaning rod, extra backstrap with tool,and a quickloader and guntrigger lock. The instruction manual is well written although the print is tiny for my 55 year old eyes! And you get a registration card to fill out and send to Century. I'm very pleased with the gun, and I like it better than I believed I would...finally getting it my hands! The price was good from Bud's. Now I can't wait to shoot it!
