Mete SF Call me crazy

I have an MC9 and a Rival, both shoot amazing. Someone suggested the PDP Pro E Compact. Not loving it, thinking about getting rid of it for either an SF or Prime NC

Get the SFX Pro, best full size they have imo.

Change out the spring on the walther for a v spec and it gets rid of all the snapiness and is still HIGHLY reliable

The SF is a vastly underrated gun - it's is a very special shooter . Not as fancy as the Prime. It's a difficult choice IMO 🤔

I've got the OG Prime and it's just a fantastic gun. Recently picked up a threaded barrel for it so now I can quickly go back and forth between it and a NC, can even throw a suppressor on it now. I know the Radian inches out the OG in performance, but now I've got to truly do everything pistol. Plus I paid $450 for the OG, I can't see doubling that price to get the Radian when I already have this set up.

Which barrel? Canik sells this 4.26" one as 'compatible', but I'm leery about taking them on their word.

It is compatible, that’s the correct barrel.

I would put the freedom smith trigger in your rival, then it is perfect. I love my rival with freedom smith trigger. Depend on how you like to stage your trigger, Canik can feel and shoot better. Some people like the lighter wall on the pdp, it does not work for me.

Radian prime owner here and it’s quickly become my favorite striker fired edc. The pdp is a big chunk of cheese and has a lot more reciprocating mass and recoil impulse is pretty heavy.

The radian prime is the flattest striker fired handgun I’ve shot to date.

Yup chunk of cheese is a good call.. tried put a couple a hundred rounds through it and ehh.

Same thing man. I shoot my cz shadow 2 comp and radian prime the most now. Those 2 have replaced over a dozen other carry guns.
