The Canik 55 S-120 is by far the most solid and smooth shooting 9mm I have ever owned. When instinct shooting, it's natural lines are very true to the point of impact. It's light color also contributes to instinct shooting in very low light situations. One design quality to consider is that the only way to de-cock the weapon is to put a thumb on the hammer, pull the trigger and slowly lower the hammer. This freaks out supervisors at the gun range. However, I prefer having a de-cocked weapon in my holster when on duty and can easily cock it in the holster if the situation allows or fire with the double action otherwise. I also like the design factor that the upper slide rides on the inside of the lower receiver instead of the outside like most other autos. The only improvement I could imagine the Canik 55 is if it could be all stainless steel instead of chrome on carbon steel. My salty sweaty ( south Florida ) hands did eventually get through the finish on mine and I had to refinish it.

Had this gun 8 months or so. Put about 1000 rounds through it with no issues. It is a 6 oclock shooter so at least with mine as long as I put the target just above the front sight it's a tackdriver. Best with range ammo is 2" groups of 5 at 25 yards from a rest. I'm happy with that all day. 1.5" at 10 yards. At 7 yards it's just a big ragged hole.Just ordered the CZ75bd so it will be fun to compare. I don't feel like it's quite as good as the older PO7 duty with the omega trigger though. Looks much better though. Well worth the price. Now if CANIK could keep up with demand and start importing again, I can get a Shark FC. It'll probably be a feeding frenzy and everyone will be out of stock in days. I have several of the Turkish guns...Tisas, Girsan.. they are all well made, accurate guns for taking to the range and having fun.

THIS GUN....is a best value hands down!!!! Crazy accurate with solid build albeit a little polishing inside would be nice. I have 4 Turkish builds now and am buying another. Each one is a solid performer and I'm rating it against my competition guns which are high end builds. No kidding, a very good shooter that rivals my CZ in every way for less. Do it, pull the trigger and order it...you wont be sorry.

This ones pristine shooting machine.AS GOOD or Better than a browning hi power, hardly any recoil and accurate from 30 yards. Gun is put together very well. Quality gun and a jewel in my collection. Thanks!!!!!!

Great duty pistol, I usually go for striker fire handguns, but the reason I purchased this pistol because it is a excellent clone to CZ 75 which is a sweet DA pistol, great for time at the range doing drills, home defense or CC even though it is a full size pistol. The best qualities of this pistol is that is compatible with CZ 75 parts, mags, & holsters at a fraction of the price! Get yours!

Wow,this is a nice pistol! Fit and finish are very good, shoots good without a single fail to feed, fail to eject, just no problems at all. The grip is a little fat so people with small hands might not like that. Sights are OK and the trigger is very good with nice clean break and no creep at all. A beautiful pistol and a steal at the price. Thank you Bud's Guns for the great layaway plan which makes it very easy to buy and thanks for such a smooth buying experience. By the way, I learned about Bud's Gun Shop through Hickok45.

This thing is amazing, well made, smooth and accurate. The double action trigger is long but it isn't gritty or heavy, the sights are bright, and best of all if there's something you don't like, regular CZ accessories and parts swap right in. This is just a good pistol, that its affordable is a bonus.

wonderful gun and buds truly rocks I received my gun in two days

Excellent CZ clone. As good if not better at fraction of cost. Another fantastic deal from Bud's.

I picked this up when buds had it on sale for 339. I had been wanting a CZ 75 but for $130 bucks less for a clone that everyone seemed to be reviewing positively, I had to check it out. Buds shipped it via 2 day air for free so good job buds on that! It came coated pretty heavily in oil, not really a negative but bring a cleaning towel with you when you go pick it up. The finish is definitely a cerakote, not hard chrome, with a few blemishes. The slide to frame fit has a little slop, but not a big deal as this pistol is accurate! It feels good in the hand and puts bullets where you want them to go. The plastic grips leave something to be desired, but that is easily fixed. One thing I have noticed that is a bit of a safety issue, if you slam a new mag in a little too hard when the slide is locked back, the slide will release chambering a round. So keep your finger off the trigger when reloading! These come with a 1 year warranty though so I am still debating trying to have it fixed or not. It is not a big deal if you practice good gun safety all the time. for 340 shipped, it is a great deal. at 450, I would spend the extra 30 and get a CZ.
