In 2012 Canik partnered with Century Arms to introduce Canik TP pistols to the U.S. market. The company has quickly risen to the forefront of firearm conversations, including being named the 2018 Editor’s Choice for Versatile/Value Pistol by Ballistic Magazine. The pursuit of excellence continues in 2019 with the new TP9 Elite Combat that comes standard with performance upgrades by Salient Arms International.
