Canik TTI Overview

Like most other Caniks, the TTI Combat is a striker-fired handgun chambered in 9 mm Luger with a polymer frame that uses Canik’s reliable semi-automatic action, which itself is based on a simplified version of the renowned Walther P99’s action. The most succinct way to describe the TTI Combat—it’s a full-size Canik METE fully done-up to TTI’s specifications. Every aspect and detail of this gun has been combed over, and the resulting product has both physical and cosmetic features that differ from a standard METE. The gun includes a distinctive twotone Cerakote bronze finish, along with other bronze accent pieces that are juxtaposed against a black frame and trigger. Otherwise, the TTI Combat is just like its full-size METE counterpart. Frames and slides are interchangeable, and the TTI Combat’s slide even has the Shield RMSc-sized factory cut of the METE—not the larger one present on the Rivals. The gun I’m reviewing here is set up identically to the gun that was on display at SHOT Show earlier this year at Century Arms’ booth, with Canik’s new-ish “big window” competition-style reflex sight, the Mecanik M03.
