I've recently been turned on to the Canik TP9SF sold at Academy Sports, and introduced to me by one of it's a salesman who I recently taught in a college class.
I've done a good bit of reading and comparison shopping since, and like what I have seen. Price is very good, and reviews by owners and reviewers are impressive. I read someplace that it won Gun of the Year from some organization.
A couple of days ago I was able to shoot a Century Canik TP9SA. It operated well. My only mechanical issue was what I felt was a very long trigger pull, though not a hard one.
So my only complaint involves target shooting at the range. I want the reader here to assume that I am a very good shot.
That said, I found that all my shots were going about 4" low at 7 yards. But left to right was perfect. Inspecting the sights, I found that I can adjust left-right, but not elevation, which is were my issue is. Neither the front nor the rear sight had an elevation adjustment.
I wonder if the front sight is like my little Walther P22 pistol. On that one, the owner installs one of four sights up front. Each of three had its white dots at different heights above the barrel. The fourth one was just a flat cover to fill the sight mounting hole.
Is this the way elevation is accomplished on the TP9? If so, are all models of the TP9 handled this way, or do some models have rear sights that are adjustable for elevation?
Thanks ahead of time for you replies.
