Keep in mind, honest outlaw always talks about the canik subcompact being an amazing handgun and reliable, his first 1,000 through it, it had 3 malfunctions.
funny my only failure on the tp9 elite sc was my very first shot fte, after that butter. Also there's another vid with a guy shooting high with the stoeger he sent it back and stoeger told him the sights were off
@@24grizzy Your failure in your Tp9 was likely caused because caniks recoil springs are too strong. They are designed for 9mm NATO using middle Eastern and European forces, where 9mm is loaded hotter than here in the US. A few years back they loosened the springs slightly. However they are still sprung too tight and often will still fail to eject. Your gun is running on the very edge of reliability at all times. This can be fixed with caniks low power recoil spring. They are not normally in stock but you may get lucky. The gun will recoil a little harder. But will run with much less of a chance of another FTE. I have the TP9 SF elite compact. Very nice gun. But I won't carry it without +p ammo for reliable function.
I recently picked this stoeger up and man is it nice. I'm not a fan of plain white dot sights so had an extra p365 front sight and with a little filling it fit right in if anyone wants to change the front sight. The stoeger sight came right out with a brass punch, I didn't even need to put it in a vise
SPN, I'm sending my MC in for repairs. I was the MC's biggest fanboy but at 1500 rounds it's been giving me problems Mostly failure to extract and eject. It hasn't happened a ton but enough that I'm afraid to carry it any longer. What really precipitated this is I decided to buy some new carry ammo. I went to the range to shoot up whatever 115gr Horaday XTP hollow points I had remaining and it jammed on the second bullet. It jammed so badly I had to remove the magazine and work on getting the old cartridge out. This really freaked me out because I've been trusting my life to that gun/ammo setup this whole time and to find out it wouldn't fire when I needed it was troubling to say the least. I'm going back to my Walther PPS M2 while the Stoegy is in for repairs. Not sure I'll trust it again unless Stoeger clearly finds a problem that needed fixing. If they send it back with a non-committal response for the problem, then I'll probably give up on that gun. I just emailed Stoeger to set up the return. I'll be curious to see how Stoeger is to deal with for warranty work. On an unrelated note, I have a APX first gen, if I send it to you, any interest in doing a video on it? I paid $300 for it new (but old, it's 2018) so it fits in with your 'affordable guns/working class' ethos. Let me know. Thanks.
Hey bro wanted to say I genuinely enjoy your videos so much. Just everything you do w your platform is phenomenal. With that said I was curious on how the reset is on this handgun. 4:34 seems like the slightest pause/flinch and it’s reminding me of when I was first getting used to my reflex. Keep up the good work man. Respect!
I had to adjust the rear sight on my mc. It was noticeably off shooting high and left. The next time I went to the range I brought a screwdriver and corrected it. It’s something everyone might have to do with theirs.
Bro I’m curious if you have heard of dove mounting solutions? It’s a dovetail system for red dots. So u cant mount the plate on your slide by using a the dovetail instead of the slide having to be cut. They are like 80 bucks but they have a fiber optic front sight that cowitnesses with the red dot. I love it, it’s awesome. But I thought might let u know since you are one of the few gun tubers that interact with your viewers. Looking forward to maybe a test from you.
i bought this gun bc if your first video..... been a great gun but you got to tell me what holster you have or thinking about getting? thanks spn for all youve done for the game!
Yes! I’m going to do a 500 round video in one sitting. The thing has ran flawless since I made this video as well. I recorded this like 5 days ago. And I will make that video here soon! I found something you guys will like, just waiting on it. I’m using a sticky holster for the 43 until it gets here! Respect
@@motomogul4023Right on! I actually have 2. Both are inexpensive iwb kydex holsters that I picked up from Amazon. One is a Black Scorpion and the other is a Rounded Gear. Personally, I prefer the Rounded Gear. That being said, I added a claw and Ulticlip with the Rounded Gear upon purchase. 👍🏻💯
I'd assume since its basically a Glock clone it would be similar to cleaning a glock. I like this video's method a lot since unlike a lot of people he uses gloves because lead is toxic, he uses nontoxic lubricant, and cleaners. Also shows how to deep clean glocks which a lot of videos do not. ruclips.net/video/j33f7vkDu08/видео.html There probably are better products/ways to do it but this one seems pretty good to me.
Don't expect great customer service from Stoeger. My MC came with a totally black front sight, which doesn't work especially well with a totally black rear sight. When I contacted them, their email said they would send me a basic sight when they get some in, though it may be a while. Hello, doesn't that need to be installed? I don't have the tools to do it. When I asked about that they said "If you’re not comfortable with replacing it, please reach out to a local Gunsmith..." So, I should go pay extra for a gunsmith to fix their mistake? They finally allowed that their service center could put it back on if I sent it in, but they're running ten weeks out, so... Really screams "We want you as our customer!", doesn't it.
It was the same one from the 1,000 round hellcat Vs p365 video. There was nothing left. We shot 1200 rounds in that video and no one would be able to see where I was hitting
Keep in mind, honest outlaw always talks about the canik subcompact being an amazing handgun and reliable, his first 1,000 through it, it had 3 malfunctions.
Dude, Right. He ranked it as the number 1 subcompact when in previous videos he's said caniks reliability was "okay".

Just picked one up yesterday thanks to your other reviews
So this is great
Keep em coming
It’s been great so far! I will have an updated video here soon. It’s over 750 rounds now and running smooth as can be! Respect
SpnMom and SpnWife for the win!!!
Agreed 100%!!! Respect

00:50 One of the reasons I have a small optic is that it helps with the short sight radius. But as you said "to each his own".
rather sight in a dot rather than have to play arnd with irons
Looks nice. Thanks for all your videos, much appreciated!
Considering this because it uses the same mags as combat model. Thank you!
my local farm store has STR-9 and STR-9MC mags. Their store an hour away has STR-9 and STR-9C magazines, and the Stoeger holster even.

Yes I would like to review it! Spnfirearms@gmail.com. And watch my most recent video on the mc bro… same issues at 1200 rounds! N
Would love to hear your thoughts on shooting this compared to the others like the hellcat and p365 when it comes to your overall experience.
I really like how it uses standard size magazines. Similar to the Masada slim using cz 75 magazines
Canik micro uses the full size canik mags as well as p226 mags

Just ordered the stoeger str9-mc with night sight and two 11 round and one 13 round! Can’t wait!
Great gun! Thanks for the review👍🏼 any updates on it??
My local range/ store has a wall of Stoeger mags lol. Ya really just have to look around
My str9 mags work in the mc… however, mine don’t hold open on last round.
Mine held open for me every time! That’s odd.. respect
I got an email from Sportsman’s Outdoor 190 after rebate. Full size or compact. Very very tempting
Dang, very nice! I like the compact! Respect
Let’s go video is finally up! SPN you should do a video showing groupings of these newer pistols *cough fn reflex vs stoger* and just compare results.
I will! I destroyed the targets during the hellcat Vs p365 video so I didn’t have anything left really
I had to adjust the rear sight on my mc. It was noticeably off shooting high and left. The next time I went to the range I brought a screwdriver and corrected it. It’s something everyone might have to do with theirs.
Yes. I had to seal my sights. They moved while shooting but now are perfect. Respect

Buds gun shop had this gun or the compact on-sale for like 200$
Prob the str9c it’s way cheaper to make
I just bought the MC for $235 and it has a $75 rebate
how's those sights coming along
Sweet the stoger
Hi can you do more vids on this firearm. There’s not much vids and I’m hoping you can shoot more rounds to test its reliability
i bought this gun bc if your first video..... been a great gun but you got to tell me what holster you have or thinking about getting? thanks spn for all youve done for the game!
I had luck with the Galco Stow n Go holster made for the Glock 43
Yes! I’m going to do a 500 round video in one sitting. The thing has ran flawless since I made this video as well. I recorded this like 5 days ago. And I will make that video here soon! I found something you guys will like, just waiting on it. I’m using a sticky holster for the 43 until it gets here! Respect
awesome camt wait

👍🏻💯
SPN family. Cool.
Which one is more snappy st9 mc or hellcat?
All STR9 mags fit this firearm.
Except the subcompact 10 round mag. You have to swap the baseplate.
Yuma, AZ
I heard they will feed canik tp9 mags
I’ll give it a try and make an update! Respect
spn make a vid when you fix those sights been hearing it shoots high might help some who pick this up
I love my Stoeger STR 9mc l have 200 rounds through it
What is the best way/stuff to clean and lube this pistol? My first handgun and want to make sure its taken well care of. What would you recommend? :)
I'd assume since its basically a Glock clone it would be similar to cleaning a glock. I like this video's method a lot since unlike a lot of people he uses gloves because lead is toxic, he uses nontoxic lubricant, and cleaners.

There probably are better products/ways to do it but this one seems pretty good to me.
Anyway you can do a 43x 500 round please.
Yes against the shield plus we are going to do it!
@@spnfirearms Yes, this is even better because I have an eye on the shield plus. Lets go.
I think that malfunction could have been a mag issue. especially after you slapped it and it went home. Thats the one weakness with this gun. the mag.

Why not show the target??
It was the same one from the 1,000 round hellcat Vs p365 video. There was nothing left. We shot 1200 rounds in that video and no one would be able to see where I was hitting
Man I can the GX4 for 229.99 rn but I can’t seem to budge because I’m interested in this 😭😭😭which is more even with the rebate.
Slide sounds bone dry didn’t lube it or nothing
