DELRAY BEACH, Fla. – (April 23, 2019) – Canik, manufacturer of handguns and accessories used around the world and imported to the U.S. exclusively by Century Arms, is proud to announce the all-new TP9 Elite Combat Executive.
Based on the 2019 TP9 Elite Combat utilizing performance upgrades designed by Salient Arms International, the Executive features a distinctive gold barrel by Salient, fluted, match-grade, and PVD-over-nitride coated, and a black polymer frame topped with a nitride-coated jet black slide. The Executive is suppressor ready with 1/2 x 28 RH threads.
The TP9 Elite Combat Executive includes the new flat-face aluminum trigger with a black full-face safety. The optics-ready slide comes with an optics mounting plate and charging handle. A side-reversible, extended magazine release and additional backstrap for customizing the fit is included in addition to a new retention holster with Slide Lock Release.
The slide, barrel and small steel parts are nitride-coated while internal components are nitride or high-wear nickel-coated. The Salient collaboration includes the barrel and thread protector, an aluminum Speed Funnel magazine well, and sight set with fiber optic front sight. A 15-round magazine with a +3 extension for a total of 18-rounds is included.
A limited quantity of the TP9 Elite Combat Executive is being produced. This exceptional handgun has an MSRP of $749.99 and is shipping in early May.
Attendees of the 2019 NRA Annual Meeting can be among the first to see the new pistol by visiting Canik in booth #2007 at the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, Indiana, April 26-28.
Salient can somehow do a collab like this….but can’t deliver a rifle in under three years. Buyer beware of whatever wait time you’re given.
I’d rather buy the Walther it cloned and have a factory warranty I can trust. Canik is fine at the $300 price point but not $800 in my opinion. Throwing a body kit on a Chevy Cruze and demanding Camaro prices.
