I have absolutely nothing bad to say about this firearm! Somewhere close to 1000 rounds with all types of ammo, even steel and never one issue. I love this firearm!!

Bud's never disappoints! Shipping is within 2 weeks at my FFL. The price was right, no-one else had this in stock, Gun arrived in pristine condition and the "make an offer" is a hoot. Although I never seem to save much, just about the 3% that is extra when paying with my debit card. The SHARK is just gorgeous, fit and finish were perfect. It feels like a CZ in hand, very ergonomic, looks just like a Baby Eagle-but the controls are on the frame where they belong and not on the slide, it shoots right on right out of the box and even though you really don't get much of a purchase on the slide when racking because of the CZ type slide-in-frame design it racks quite easily. I love this gun!

I am very impressed with this gun, So much so I just bought a canik s-120. I have put over 500 rounds through this gun with not so much as 1 fail to feed or any fail to fires. Very accurate at 30 yards and light recoil...GREAT GUN and BUDS takes 2 days to get my guns to my dealers Thanx BUDS.

This is a beautiful pistol. I used the "Make Offer" button and got the Canik Shark C for next to nothing. Awesome. The aluminum, CZ-style frame is so light, the Shark C feels like it weighs less than a Glock 19, despite being almost identical in size. The brushed satin finish is eye-catching and flawless. The slide sits inside the frame and makes for a very low bore axis. The pistol comes slathered in oil, which is to be expected. Two mags come with it, too. The sights are glow-in-the-dark, too...hod them up to a light for a few seconds and they glow brightly in the dark. Awesome little touch. The stock grips are plastic and slippery, so I recommend getting a replacement set. I used rosewood. All CZ compact grips will fit this pistol perfectly. As for performance...well I have put about 250 rounds through the Shark C and am yet to have any kind of problem whatsoever. It hits right where I want it to. It is amazingly accurate. This pistol will group two full magazines-worth well within the "9" ring at 25 yards. If you are reading this, then you are on the gun's page and that means you are considering it. Well, stop. BUY THIS pistol. It is one of the best values I have ever found. I own a lot of pistols, and this little beauty is definitely one of my favorites.

Great fire arm love it shot over five hundred rounds threw it with out a hitch and gun hits where it's what it's aim at.

I've put about 500 rounds through this handgun. It shoots smooth. accurate, and is very well balanced. The finish is nice and durable. The gun is easy to clean. It came with 2 mags 15 round capacity. The Trigger is single/double action. The double action works well but its not super smooth. The single action pull is very nice.Definitely a great gun for the money.

I was skeptical of this firearm. All the reviews I have seen were positive. I waited until I could visit Buds in Lexington to actually take a look at the pistol. I immediately ordered the Shark-C the same day. 3 days later when I returned home it was waiting at my FFL. All I can say is the reviews were spot on. The craftsmanship of this pistol is excellent. Very balanced, fits my hand perfectly. No rough edges. You can shake this piece all day, nothing is loose, no rattles of any sort (try that with a lot of others). The slide is excellent. A bit stiff at first, but loosens up after a bit. The safety also was a bit tight, but improves with use. Gun was literally soaked in oil when you first open the case. I think to the point that the front sight dissolved from saturation. Not a problem with a little touch up paint. Perfect now. I went through the first couple magazines tonight (more if it wasn’t so cold out). Fired without issue. Feed perfectly. The chrome version does blacken up quickly with bulk 9s. Wipes clean without any problem. The finish is amazing. You would never have guessed this is a sub $450 firearm. About the same weight a size of a Glock 26, with a longer grip. A great purchase. Now I just need to find more mags.

Yeah Yeah Yeah, you see the Buds Review on this Canick 55 Shark, but thats like the fox guarding the hen house. Well, I was blown away! The guns performance was amazing. Dead center with the first shot right out of the box. It was like trick shooting that you see on TV, i was shooting DEAD CENTER with EVERY SHOT!!!! One of the best firearms i have purchased. Just like in Buds review, this gun is all that plus much more. Fun to shoot, great price and deadly accurate.

Just received my new Canik Shark-CC yesterday, and so far, I love it. Haven't fired it, yet, but I love the looks and the way it feels. Can't wait to take it out to the range, and try it out!! Thanks, Bud's, and thanks Mandy!

I just can't be happier with my purchase. The gun looks amazing. Took it to the range today and the accuracy of this gun is PERFECT!!!!. Did 15 shots at 10 yards and hit 13 bulls eye. I also did rapid fire several times with the whole magazine and no jams. The owner of my FFL ask me to shoot the gun and ask me if I want to sell it. Of course my answer was NOOO!! My wife also shoot the gun and she loved it!! The bad news for me is that she ask for the same gun and as a good husband, I obey!!! I just order another one just 5 minutes ago. Buds service was superb and really fast. Very pleased with gun, Buds, FFL, shipping, everything!! If you want a good gun at a good price, stop looking, put it in your cart and buy it. Thanks Buds!!!

I am a relatively new gun "enthusiast", with Taurus, Springfield, and Sig brands. I was looking for something different (and that shoots well). This pistol is really very nice. I really think we should be able to find, collect, and shoot nice pistols without paying $1000 for them. This is it! Looks great and shoots great. Didn't have time to break it down fully, so just cleaned the barrel, and it went through 100 rounds no problem. If I was even thinking about buying a CZ, I would look at these first. I am all over the board with brands of pistols, but I would buy another one of these. And by the way, Buds rocks! I can not say enough how good these guys are over there! Shipped QUICK to my choice of FFL, and boom- to the range! (pun intended).

1st time ordering anything from Buds. I got the Canik shark chrome compact. Liked the way it looked on the web site and like it even more in my hand. This is a great looking pistol and I cannot wait to get it out to the range this weekend to try it out. The service and communication from Buds was top notch. I knew what was going on with the order at all times. They have great customer service and great pricing. Will certainly buy from again.

Love it! Love it! Love it! Absolutely beautiful gun; nice lines that just flow smoothly. The machine work is flawless; every piece is fitted to the others seamlessly. The gun is well balanced and feels good in the hand. The grip is a little fat, but I also own a PX4 Storm Compact and the grip on the Shark is no larger. I have fairly small hands but no problems shooting this gun. The kick is a little more than I expected but not overwhelming and quickly compensated for. Trigger pull is a little stiff, even in SA not a drawback just takes getting adjusted to. I found the gun to be very accurate and I love the Tritium sites! I have other guns with the Ameriglo coating but the Tritium is even better, for me at least. I have only had opportunity to run about 2 boxes of ammo through the gun but she ate them all without a single FTF or FTE. Looking forward to many more years of shooting with this gun & it also fits my ITB holster very nicely. I like it so much I also purchased one in the Desert Tan and my boyfriend purchased one in Titanium. Would I recommend this gun to others? Absolutely! I would say to get one now before the rest of the United States catches on to what Europeans have known for years - You just cannot beat the quality of this gun for the price anywhere.

Just my opinion, but I think this is a GREAT gun, especially for the money. The fit and finish are excellent. One reviewer made a comment about the plastic grips, but I found them to be very satisfactory, ergonomically. This is such a good looking piece that I'd like to dress it up with a set of nice walnut grips. Asked Bud's if the CZ-75's grips would fit since the Canik is a clone, but haven't received an answer. I don't have any experience with very high-end pistols, but I have shot or owned Glocks, S&W, Berrettas, Rugers, and Colts. The trigger pull on the Canik is the best I've experienced, even in double action. Very accurate gun and I'm very happy with it.

Just got my Canik Shark C and had to make an emergency range trip to see how she runs. I was not disappointed. Feels very well made, only complaints would be the grips and the sights which both feel a little chintzy. DA is a bit heavy but SA is nice with only a bit of creep. The safety, slide catch and mag release are all a bit stiff but I'm betting that will improve with time and use. Those with smaller hands may have a little trouble manipulating the slide catch lever as I have pretty big hands and still feel like I'm reaching for it. I put 100 rounds through it at the range without a hiccup and laid down some of the best groups I've ever had. Overall, this little pistol is a lot of bang for your buck.
