The new METE series from Canik represents an evolution in the realm of semi-automatic sporting pistols, a testament to thoughtful design enhancements that elevate performance and handling. This firearm's external modifications may appear subtle at first glance, yet they become immediately apparent upon engagement.
One of the most notable features is the integrally flared mag-well. This innovation not only facilitates seamless reloads but also provides additional support for a firm grip, ensuring reliability under pressure. The aggressive texturing on the front of the grip further enhances stability, offering shooters increased control during operation.
The redesigned double undercut trigger guard secures your support hand comfortably, contributing to improved handling dynamics. Complementing this are the low-profile slide stop lever and angled rear sight edge—features meticulously crafted to enhance functionality across various scenarios.
A key advancement in this series is its optics-ready slide cut, capable of accommodating diverse optical sights ranging from Trijicon RMRcc systems to micro optics. This ensures a consistent and dependable sight picture for precision aiming.
Ergonomics have also been prioritized with a newly designed beavertail that offers exceptional comfort during extended use. Additionally, Canik has integrated their holster fit-and-lock (HFL) system into this model for secure retention while holstered—a detail not overlooked by those who carry regularly.
