 Hey there friends, thanks for checking in. It's time for another handgun showdown where the viewers of this channel decide which Firearm manufacturer makes the best handguns this time We've got car arms versus canik and I think this one will be a good showdown But before we do that let's report the results back from the last handgun showdown and here we had sky versus diamond back I called this the battle of the budgets and this showdown was Extremely close a lot of people had nice things to say about diamond backs, especially this am2 It's a great handgun, but in the end sky pulled it off It was a tight tight race the whole time through but sky got more votes especially near the end and they won that handgun showdown But I think we have a good one here, and I know there will be a lot of people commenting So let's get to it. Let's start with car arms and we'll begin with their newest bottle This is a PM9 covert now the car PM9 is a little bit smaller with the grip It still has a three-inch barrel, but the covert model has a seven round magazine It also offers three finger contact on the grip But a very nice trigger pull double action only breaks between six and a half and seven pounds Extremely smooth, and then there's what you're looking at With the reset now the one thing that car arms offers is consistency Extremely small light weight and thin only point nine inches wide on the top of the slide So it's very thin and you look at that grip they carry So well a lot of people pocket carry the PM9 the PM9 covert is new It offers an additional round three finger contact, and I think a beautiful gun now this one here has Night sights and I I'm just very much impressed with their models. I love this one too This is a PM45 3.2 inch barrel five round magazine and 45 ACP and it offers that same Six and a half pound trigger pull you're looking at a double action reset and a very smooth trigger now the triggers with the card is Consistent it doesn't matter if it's a 45 like this a 9mm or 380 You're getting that same trigger pull that many people love and I love that 45 ACP One of the best deals in the car line that I think is the ST9 also the S9 a little bit smaller This has a four inch barrel front serrations very nice engraving three dot sights in a magazine That holds eight rounds now. It's a single stack all these are single stack That's one of the things that car arms does they make their guns very light very thin So they use single stack mags, but once again We're looking at right around six and a half maybe a little bit more with the trigger pull But extremely smooth and this one here has a pick rail and over here has an accessory rail I'm not sure if I mentioned that but a fine gun and I love all three of them And I think they will match up very well with canik I have two caniks to feature here the smallest and the largest canik Most are in the middle the TP line on average has a four inch barrel But what we have here is a canik TP9 Elite Subcompact released not too long ago like four or five months ago. It's a very nice handgun It's their smallest model 3.6 inch barrel has a magazine that carries 12 rounds They also offer another mag that has 15 round capacity and a very nice trigger Got a red trigger bar safety in there But I'm measuring it right around five and a quarter pounds very short reset But caniks are loaded with features and accessories in the case. So they also come with holsters and Optic ready plates. Okay, it's optic ready But they do have plates that you can add your favorite optic to so that is an option with both of them They also have tungsten sericote finish slide that I think looks super cool additional backstraps Striker fire indicator right there that goes away when the gun is no longer charged a loaded chamber indicator serrated black rear sights front dot and an all-in-all nice package here with their subcompact model very much impressed with the canik line of handguns and this new model did not disappoint Now this one is a race gun. It's been around for a while. It's the TP 9 SFX This has a whopping 20 round magazine. You can see that it does have the plus two base plate there 20 rounds and the same very short Actually, this one feels a little bit lighter with a very short reset But a race gun because it's got a 5.2 inch barrel lightning cuts there fiber optic front sight Also has the striker fire indicator in the back serrated black rear sights already mentioned fiber optic front sights And this also comes with a holster Additional plate because this is optic ready to and canik says they made this to hit the Competition range immediately after picking this up. They say you don't need anything else I understand these two companies couldn't be more different with their handguns I did that intentionally to get your thoughts and opinions So which is it? Is it car arms the small sleek lightweight models with single stacks or is it the larger? Canics that are double stacks and feature loaded. Let me know in the comments I'll total them up and report the results back with the next handgun showdown If you like videos like this, please subscribe and share I always appreciate thumbs up button.
