It’s your responsibility to make sure the clips are secured around your gun belt. This isn’t a Canik failure more like a user failure. I’ve had zero issues but I always make sure the clips are secured properly.
Since I've changed to the new holster, I've had NO issues.
You can adjust the tension springs on the holater
I have the same holster, but I've never used it because I have been carrying concealed for twenty-plus years now and could tell just by looking at it it wouldn't work for me. l prefer leather holsters whether inside or outside the waistband. As the man said, preference is everything.
@@degucc WELL WITH A NEW LEATHER HOLSTER IT WILL ALWAYS BE VERY TIGHT WHEN BRAKING IT IN. ONCE IT'S BROKEN IN IT SHOULD NEVER GIVE YOU ANY PROBLEMS. I HAVE BEEN USING THE SAME TWO LEATHER IWB HOSTLERS FOR TWENTY YEARS NOW. ONE IS FOR A RUGER SP101 AND THE OTHER FOR A GLOCK 30. THE HAVE NEVER FAILED TO KEEP MY GUNS SECURED WHILE USING EITHER OF THEM. NOW TWO YEARS AGO I BOUGHT A NEW LEATHER IWB HOLSTER FOR A NEW CANIK ELITE FROM OUTBAGS AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS FROM IT EITHER... I'M ONLY TELLING YOU WHAT HAS WORKED FOR ME. EVERYONE HAS DIFFERENT IDEAS OF WHAT WORKS FOR THEM.. I HAD TO GO SEVERAL DIFFERENT TYPES OF HOLSTERS TO FIND WHAT WAS RIGHT FOR ME AND YOU WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO DO THE SAME THING...
That happened to me when I was practicing at home.... I immediately contacted my local index holster maker and had him custom make me a reliable holster. Great video.
That was a great idea. Fortunately the Stealth Operator fit perfectly.
I get what you're saying, and I can certainly understand how the situation that you experienced would make you feel. While training with my Elite SC, I had the same thing happen, but after it did, I have been certain that the hooks were under my belt. At all times as firearm bearers , the functionality of our equipment is on us. There are products out there, all day, v everyday, that will fail, but the holster that comes with the Elite SC isn't one of them. What happened to you IMHO, is not a failure of the product but a failure on your part to make certain that your equipment was secured. Potentially deadly, but only because the holster wasn't secured by the user, not because the holster failed in any way. With all of that being said, thank you for the information on another holster. Our weapons are great, but being a relative newcomer to the industry, accessories can be hard to find. So thank you for getting this information out to us.
I appreciate your candor, however, after making this video, which is quite old now. the holsters have been changed. The hooks are now reinforced or strengthened. We get to try hundreds of holsters, retention and standard, and the original Canik holsters definitely needed reinforcements on the hooks. The newer ones appear to be much better.
Another great video thanks for your feed back sir! You have earned a sub
Thanks for the sub!
I saw that issue as soon as I looked at the holster that cane with my Canik tp9sfx and as a temporary fix I took the belt loops off of one of my old glock holsters that wouldn’t work and replaced the clips on the back of that holster, now however I no longer use it because of my weapon light however I did heat it up and reshape it to fit the weapon with the light on it and mounted it to the passenger side of my center console in my F150 so my pistol has its own spot to ride, that ended up working so well that I got another of the factory holsters for free from a friend and did the same to it and mounted it in the custom center console of my Dually, love it
I'm loving the Stealth operator: www.18guns.com/catalog.php?search_for=stealth%20operator
If you like the holster itself just get some closed loop, metal or leather or even ulticlips to replace the ones it came with and sometimes using different clips on different holsters /sheaths makes a big difference, as I often try mixing and matching clips to use on my fixed blade knife sheaths since I can't carry a firearm at work and by changing clips it adds new life, carry position to an existing holster / sheath
Well, they just reworked the hooks and I'm pretty sure we all know why.
aliengear makes an OWB belt holster now for tp9 elite sc. certainly should be considered
I did get one and it has some positives BUT its a little hot. Which one did you get?
There's a balance for function and comfort with me. I prefer an owb for draw speed and comfort 'for me'. The compromise is changing the style of dress. If that's not an option then different gun or different holster is an option. The great thing about this hobby/lifestyle is that options are endless.
Yes, they are endless except when it comes to appendix carry....ain't doin' it. I like my ______
That Canik holster is also an iwb you just unscrew the clips and turn them around. You did my fingerprinting and pic for my hcp lol i was the guy that took my bloodpressure meds twice and was really loopy. I just found your videos and i switched to the Canik TP9 SC for edc aswell lol i got the distressed bronze trophy edition.
Ha, thanks for the comment. I think I do remember reading that about it being both. Great gun, lousy holster....these are the best (in my opinion): www.18guns.com/catalog.php?search_for=stealth%20operator
Thank you for your experience with that. You may not be the end all be all, but your experience is a good data point.
We have had mostly good experiences with Canik. For the money, much better than anything on the market and the trigger is just awesome.
Just some thoughts. Like you I will provide some background experience. I was a sergeant in the 82nd Airborne and served 30 years in law enforcement (firearms instructor, defense tactics instructor, chemical weapons instructor). Like you, with the partial loop Kydex loops, I’ve experienced pulling my weapon just to have the holster and firearm to come out. Luckily it was a training day not an actual event. This was obviously the last time I used this or similarly made holster.
This is the part in the video I have some issue. I have found an individual will more likely carry a firearm if it is comfortable. I’m not saying this should be the main thought while deciding on the holster, but should be on the same level as security, practicality, ease of use, etc…. With the number of holsters on the market anyone should be able to find the correct holster to wear.
Love the comment, thank you and thank you for your service.
Thanks for the tip
You bet
I use mine quite a bit to open carry at home. Maybe I just wear my carry belt a bit more snug, but I can't imagine the J-clip would ever come unhooked if I made sure it was properly hooked in the 1st place.
Well, the new holsters seem to have a much sturdier hook for the belt. The holster I shelved is now 2+ years old and I'm back to carrying a Stealth Operator. Much better in my opinion.
I have a tp9sf elite and the holster it came with is exactly like yours. I wear an Amish made thick leather belt, 1 1/2" in width, and it seems to work fine but I have mistakenly not got the hooks under the belt before and when I took it off that evening I noticed it. I've tried carrying iwb but I am carrying a few extra pounds, I'm losing those pounds but it's slow, and it just isn't comfortable no matter the position.
I'm actually trying a new holster right now. I'll so a review once i'm done. The newer Canik holsters seem to have been improved a bit.
Some can say its holster malfunction, some can say it was your responsibility. I feel tho you brandished you gun in a situation you deemed needed and malfunction happened all you can do is learn from what happen and correct it as well as communicate what happen with others. Thank you. Dont look back on what happen in the past, use a negative and turn it into a positive the way you did. I use a walmart shoulder holster except I remove their holster and slide mine on which secures gun with a strap snap. Walmart holster comes also with two clip holders. What I'm trying to say is what ever works besy for you is the way you should carry. Everybody has a different build, just make sure the gun is secure . Good video.
Thanks - what is comfortable changes with my weight as well.
I have a TP9 elite sc, the plastic holster in terms of fitting the gun like a glove gets an A+, as per functionality this holster would get you killed quick in a real life defense scenario!! My issue with it is being able to draw the gun without pulling up on the holster or pulling off the belt as you have mentioned here. So then I tried an alien gear cloak owb holster which surprisingly disappointed me for alien gear because the plastic wouldn’t cover the entire trigger guard and I felt it was a dangerous holster (the cloak belt holster for my shield is amazing though)
The biggest issue I have with most holsters is the forward tilt they have, where I would prefer a slight back angle tilt for a quicker draw. I’m still searching for a good owb holster with either a back angle or adjustable angle on the belt
I literally just got an Alien holster this week to try and have not put it on yet. I get the questions a lot about comfortable holsters and I have to say, "well, concealed carry is never going to really be comfortable." It is a chore.
Thank you for this review. I have been looking and looking for some sort of real owner review on on this gun. Everyone is giving table top and shooting reviews. Not that many holsters produced either. I was literally thinking today that if I purchase this as a my carry gun I would give the stock holster a try.
The new holsters are all upgraded now. I need to do a newer review on this series. The only holster that is still crap is the on for the SC series guns. All of the full-size seem to be upgraded.
Great video. Thank you very much
Glad you liked it!
They must have listened to all the comments because I just got my canik and my holster doesn't have clips but it has holes to feed your belt through.
Hey, that is awesome. Send us a picture please: sales@securityallstar.com
I have the same holster and several others depending on my attire. I always make sure the loop is wrapped/tucked in the belt securing it by testing it and re-testing it at least a couple of times. IMO that was a user error.
OK, so I have had this comment a few times. If it was user error then why have they changed their holsters on all but the Elite SC models? It is a poor design.
Thanks for the info
Any time!
I don't know if it is possible or not, but I was informed that that holster can have the belt clips unscrewed and screwed in on the otherside to make it an iwb holster. The curved section of the holster will will rest against your body and the clips will be on the outside of the holster allowing your body to catch the holster in the event of a catostrophic holster event.
Have you tried it? I do have an updated video on this topic. I'll try to get to it soon.
Great video!
Thanks for the visit
Really good information, as I will be purchasing the Canik soon!! Regarding the included holster, indeed, that's potentially life- threatening!!!
Right on...I'd personally find another holster. We did drills yesterday and a guy found out what I meant about the whole holster coming out. Not a good experience.
You know, that begs the question, is Canik aware of this potentially deadly hazard? I'm pretty hard-pressed to believe a company like Canik that produces such obviously high quality firearms, would continue to knowingly include a holster that could potentially cause someone to loose their life!
Why not get a holster custom made for your exact gun instead of a 1 size fits most?
I don't disagree with that at all. We talked with a few companies who actually came by our guns shop to try and work with them but they were all kind of "fly by night" operations. I'll say, the one I'm using fits perfectly and I don't think anyone could have make one any better.
Is the one that fits the one that you/your company made?
Bet
I vouch for those Stealth Operator holsters. They work with most, not all, handgun makers and models.
You mean Stealth Operator?
@@SecurityAllStar Indeed. I corrected it 😁 Thanks!
The stock holster are kinda flimsy but the work really well when the clips are reversed and made into an IWB holster. Haven't had issues with mine while worn that way. Good input tho!
I can see it working better as an IWB but it is really big.
I started out using mine IWB @ 4 o'clock, but the sights dug into my rear end ... not very comfortable. I prefer to carry IWB, so I ended up going with an Alien Gear Cloak Tuck 3.5 holster. Muuuuch more comfy, and couldn't be happier!
The only holster I could find for my tp9sf is an iwb with a loose clip, I have to hold the holster to draw, it’s better than a pocket though, for what I want but I need to replace the clip if possible
Gotcha
You can flip the hooks and use that holster for in the waistband instead , that’s what I do with my elite combat
yes, we had another suggestion for this. It is a bit big/clunky for that but I can see that as a better option for as flimsy as they hooks are.
Good video, too the point and easy to grasp. (no pun intended.. ok maybe a little)
I’ll take it.
This exact same thing happen to me last week. It kind of kissed me off seeing the damn holster come along with the gun. I’ve since have burned that holster.
Yep, I've never picked up again.
Good info, misleading title. Although it was technically a Canik failure it was not a firearm failure. I have a nice VEDDER for my H&K. Anyway, good info to know. thanks for sharing. Semper Fi
Hoorah
What would be a good lefty holster option for the SC Elite? Either OTB or ITW. Yes I know..... the lefty question. Thanks for the vid. Love TN! Back here from CA after 31 years to care for mom. Go vols!
Yes, love the question. The same holster comes in lefty.
Good info! Thank You! Any thoughts on an OWB for my TP9SFX? Thanks!
I believe the Phalanx will also fit your SFX. The middle of the grips and frames on the guns are the same. The main differences are the magazine/grip length and barrel length, which have no effect on how the Stealth Operator will hold your pistol.
Hope this helps.
I have this gun but I have only a level 2 retention holster I carry when I am not on duty. When I am on duty we all have a level 3 retention holster I carry and still carry a canilk love the gun. But yes this holster I would never carry the holsters that comes with it.
Yes, they are just not safe in my professional opinion.
I've have never used my CANIK holster for two reasons:
1. The belt hooks were a turn off for the exact reason you mentioned.
2. I prefer leather over Kydex and am fortunate enough to have a friend who has been making leather holsters for 20+ years. He makes all of my holsters exactly the way I want them right down to the degree of cant.
I'm no John Wayne or John Wick. I just want my holster to perform for me and my gun and luckily I am able to have that. In my opinion, having a good holster is more important than what I carry because none of it is worth a damn if it doesn't perform or I have to futz with it when I need it. I would highly recommend to anyone who carries or wants to carry a weapon to find a craftsman and have a holster made that suite *YOUR* needs. The One-for All holsters are fine if you've tried them and settled on one you like but if you can have one made the way you want you will never regret it.
Where is he located? Maybe here in TN? We are looking for someone who wants to make holsters for our clients.
@@SecurityAllStar San Antonio
LOL... WHEN I BOUGHT MY CANIK ELITE TWO YEARS AGO I WAS PISSED WHEN I SAW THAT PITIFUL HOLSTER IT CAME WITH... IT STILL SITS IN THE SAME PLASTIC BOX IT CAME IN. THE TURKS MUST STILL BE LAUGHING.
My very first holster was leather from Muddyriver Holster and gear, When I went to my first class of my life, I had my Rugar Security 9 and that leather holster........my instructor said I would not be unable to re holster with leather. He gave me a kydex one for the class! Been buying Kydex holsters ever since.
@@douglassalley9117 Interesting. The instructor we had was a full time SWAT instructor and an LTC on the weekends. He didn't mention that during class but depending on how they are made I can understand the problem. Some get soft and almost floppy after a while. The guy who makes mine molds the leather to the gun. It's not a "will fit" it's a "made to fit" the exact gun it will carry, and it's very stiff with a simple tensioner to take up slack around the slide when needed. He's been making holsters for 30+ years and I've got several and have had no issues. Not trying to brag or spit in anyone's Cheerios. What I have works for me but be wrong for the next person. There's a reason police carry with Kydex.
A poorly made holster can be a nightmare when it doesn't fit right, and it can also be very dangerous. A customer came into our store wanting a new holster because the Brand X he was using was about a quarter of an inch too short causing the slide to extend about a quarter of an inch below the bottom. He's also a store owner and had a situation unfold in his shop a day or two before and when he pulled his weapon the front sight got hung on the leather. Scared the hell out of him. A proper holster wouldn't have done that.
I wouldn't risk using anything if I wasn't confident with it. My advice to gun buyers is to go with what works.
A few things: 1) In your other elite sc video you called the elite sc's little red indicator at the back of the slide, a chamber indicator. It's not, it just lets you know the slide has been at least partially racked whether the gun is loaded or not. The in chamber indicator is on top of the slide only. 2) In this vid, you called the Canik holster an OWB holster. It's both OWB and IWB, you have to reverse the clips to get it to be IWB. 3) you wore the Canik holster with a wrong type of belt, pulled the entire holster off, and then called it a "Canik TP9 failure." The type of plastic belt loops their holster uses are very common, you just have to use it properly and with the right belt. I use the same clips on an aftermarket holster and never had an issue. It holds for dear life on my 1.5" tactical belt. Good luck and best wishes
So, I did misspeak in the video about the chamber versus cocked indicator. Not sure which holster you are using but I take exception to the fact that every holster Canik makes is upgraded EXCEPT the one for the SC. No, I was wearing an ASP duty belt and know how a holster goes on. I also do NOT like IWB. That being said, the hooks on ALL of the new holsters are reinforced and larger and more sturdy. Why do you think that is??????
@@SecurityAllStar I am a left-handed shooter and I use the holster supplied by Canik for my TP9. For me, it works well for OWB on my left side. I don't wear a duty belt. Not yet, anyway. I wear a 1 1/2" wide regular leather belt, and I insure that the clips extend past the belt. I have never missed a draw with it yet, neither do I expect to. As a side note, the holster is not supposed to be ambidextrous. All I did was take it from IWB on the right side to OWB on the left. It works well !
@@oldfart269 which CANIK did you get? What model specifically?
@@SecurityAllStar I got the TP9 Elite SC Blackout. It's easy to shoot! I did pretty well first time out today.
What brand button up shirt are you wearing? That seems like great shirt option for carrying with owb and it conceals great.
It is a fishing shirt of some kind but it is now in the attic for the summer. I try to buy straight and then no tuck curve at the bottom. Just squared off there as well. Honestly, making CC look anonymous does take a little thought and fashion coordination which my wife says I lack. You see her new shooting video?
Ok cool, Im looking into good shirts that have no print. Thanks for recommending this stealth operator holster. I do church armed security and it holds my canik tp9sf nicely.
I'm still wearing the same one after 5 years.
the whispering at 22-25 seconds really messed with me lol
Yeah, it sounds pretty creepy. I noticed that to. LOL
Jumped in the comments section to see if i was the only one. Creepy
Thanks brother finding one for my TP9SF Elite has been a challenge I really wonder which gen glock does it match up with far as size those alien gear holsters are my fav wondering which one will it fit
Right on...I'm sure the stealth operator will fit.
Alien gear now makes a OWB holster specifically for the tp9elite SC BUT if you have an optic, it has to be notched slightly, Otherwise it’s a perfect fit if you use a steel core belt. A floppy leather belt will make almost every OWB holster seem like junk.
Check out slim fit holsters.
vedder makes a kydex holster that is an exact fit for the canik tp9 sc elite
I see where one Canik owner on the web stated that the Stealth holster fit is not that secure because of the large slide release on each side of the SC... do you notices that issue?
Hmmm, I'm carrying the last generation Stealth Operator, not the newest one, and I love the way it fits. They have made some changes. I suppose I need to get one off the shelf and try it. Do they have any aftermarket parts?
The lack of comfort is the reason I can't wear AIWB set up. All my guns are 4" to 4.25" compact. I've been carrying strong side IWB at the 4-5 o'clock position. I had one "expert" tell me he didn't teach strong side carry. He said it was not an effective way to carry. I tried to wear my gun AIWP around my house. It was quick access, but I could not sit without my slide poking me in my obliques. I'm scheduled to take a two day class with him in Oct. 11th & 12th. I don't know if I should wear AIWP in my house till after the class. But, I've been timing my first draw between the two at the range and there's only about .15 sec. difference between my times.
Oh my the way, I'm only 5'10.5" and have a 36" waist so the uncomfortable wasn't because I have a "beer" belly or a little on the thick side!!
So, what holster did you settle on?
@@SecurityAllStar It's a strong side right hand. It came with a cutout for the optic, I just needed to let them know what WML I had. It's IWB with on large clip no cant. I think I could have used a high ride so I could get a full grip before I clear my holster. Other then that, other then that it works good for me. It's comfortable. I carry it as often as I can. Some functions I go to requires my shirt tail to be tugged in, but any wear I can wear my shirt tail out I carry. I wear a XL shirts and most of them are loose enough to not print.
I wear a Galco 1 3/4 belt every day that is why every holster has to be made to that size are I want buy it .
They have made some improvements to the holsters since this video. Only the SC models still have that crappy holster.
This is a user era
It’s. Your job to secure that fire arm and make it available for self defense. And it doesn’t seem that the lesson was learned.
Get a custom holster made
Sorry, I'd have to disagree this was 'user error' as the hooks are very pliable and the only way they would stay under the belt is to have one exactly the same size and cinched up to tight to make is ressonable.
I just got the Canik Mete SFX and looking for a good light bearing holster OWB that won’t break the bank
Yes, Glock needs to be much more price competitive. Dealers pay well over $450 for most Glocks.
Wayne Battersby did you ever find a holster for the mete sfx?
When I hit link to holster it does not show The owb holster that you are recommending for a canik tp9
Have you been to the manufacturer's site to see yet? Here is their link: stealthoperator.com/collections/full-size-holsters
Maybe that will help.
Will this holster fit tp9 elite combat with threaded barrel and optics later on down the road

I'm wanting to change the stock clips for some metal ones. For those of you who have done it, which clips did you use?
My stock magazines are medal. Where did you get them/it?
I was referring to the holster clips.
Oh, my apologies. There are more options these days but a holster is a really personal choice. One mans trash is another mans?
Would that one work with my Canik TP9SF? If no, which one would you recommend?
Yes it will unless it has the red dot on top for the RMR. In that case, you will need something else.
I had my doubts about that Canik holster....
The newer ones are better.
Can the belt clips be swapped on the canik holster? Maybe to a standard loop?
I am told that it can be changed to an IWB but the loops will still be open on the bottom. I just cannot wrap my brain around how this design is a good design.
Is there any chance you can send me the link or maybe put the link in the comments please. I looked at the links in the description but I can’t see the back of the second links holster and I don’t want to buy it not knowing if it’s the right one. I really appreciate this video btw! Very important to know especially because my first weapon I just bought is a tp9sf elite. I am looking for a good holster to carry the weapon in
Maybe this link will help. We have all the parts on our site but the manufacturer has pretty good pictures: stealthoperator.com/collections/full-size-holsters
@@SecurityAllStar thank you. I’m buying it right now
use the stock holster when you go to the range.
The last few Caniks that have come in our door have an upgraded holster. The hooks are being made thicker and sturdier. Maybe they heard?
i bought this holster right off the link provided and it does NOT fit my Canik tp9 sc.
You have a picture of the holster you got? That's the holster I use for mine.
Do you know if the holster would fit a Bersa Thunder Plus?
The Bersa TPRC, Bersa Ultra Compact and Bersa BPCC are the only 3 Bersas listed as compatible. Check out this link: www.phalanxsystems.com
Yeah that whisper scared the crap out of me
Yeah, I didn't notice until someone said something about it. Spooky.
What is the name of your own holster that you're using at the time of this video?
They are not our holsters but a brand that we do carry. We really like the Stealth operator by Phalanx. I'm actually trying out a new brand this week made right here in TN.
What brand and model is the cordura holster in the video ?
I'll try to go back and research. I've forgotten.
Couldn't you just change the clips? I know im not the only one that have extras laying around from other holsters
Not really on these. They have a single hole system. I just got a better holster.
what is that whisper at :25 seconds in this video? it is a second audio...
Yeah, it sounds spooky. Its the videographer.
If your wearing your shirt over your owb how is it more accessible than a iwb ? It seemed you alluded to that just curious.
Most IWB does get a little buried inside of the clothing and pants. I've watched a lot of IWB carriers dig for their grip but the OWB makes it pretty easy to get to.
Possibly it depends on a person's build , I'm rather slim so I've never had a issue.
@@alrich6863 Ha, love handles to not help hide for sure 😃
What’s the name of the holster in the orange package.
It is a Stealth Operator.
You failed. The Canik has never failed me
Ha, you are killing me. We are gun manufacturer and get some holsters sent to us for free to try. If "I" failed, why did Canik change the hooks on the new holsters that we are getting in stock? Go ahead, explain that?
Looking for a holster for tp9sf any recommendations
I'm using the Phalanx Stealth Operator.
That is the only downside I’ve found with Canik, after market options
Yes - we agree. It is getting better.
Where did you purchase the holster ?
The Canik holster came with the gun. Here is the link to the other holster: www.18guns.com/catalog.php?search_for=stealth%20operator
That's not a failure on the product's part.. No offense intended towards the video maker. Using a product improperly is not product failure.
Well, since then we have ordered in a number of Caniks and they appear to have stiffened up the hooks. My personal feeling is that it is inferior to most other holsters we are bringing in.
Anyone else notice the creepy whispering at like 0:25
Yes, maybe a ghost?
Title a little deceiving. Failed is the holster but makes one think it was going to be about the pistol. But good video.
Yes, not the gun.

@@tedmckenna8339 Thank you very much. I'm sure it will ship shortly.
How is this a gun failure they make lots of better holsters for this exact gun. That's on you. I think the hotter that comes with the firearm that costs less than 400 for the whole package is more of a range holster and not a concealed carry holster spend the extra money on a good holster like your life depends on it.
So, it is my fault that they put a sub-standard, poorly designed holster in with their packaging and sell it as a kit. Yeaaaaah, no!
@@SecurityAllStar I think your missing the point the video had nothing to do with the firearm itself and the holster is garbage buy a better one the title of the video makes it sound like there's a problem with the gun who gives a shit about the cheap ass holster that comes with it what do you expect for less than 400 bucks it's an awesome gun for the money sig makes hosts too and I don't use those either because I don't like them I don't make a video saying how the p365 had a failure because the holster sig makes for it sucks
@@chrisapperson1975 We are going to have to agree to disagree on this. When sold as a package, you will have a LOT of new shooters get this and not know the difference. It is a failure to offer/sell a substandard holster with a package. To custom make a polymer or kydex holster is pretty inexpensive and the wrong time to find out your holster is crap is when you are in the crap. We own one of the largest gun sites in the US and Canik could easily choose a holster that would cost them, in bulk, under $10.00 and be a real top quality holster and not fail for those who are unsuspecting. I disagree with your assessment. If sold by the company as a package, it should function as well as possible.
The title of the video insinuates that the gun failed to the average person seeing this come up in their suggestions. Maybe "Canik Holster Failure"?
Probably a better title.
You could edit the title and just suggest what is in your opinion as a “better holster“ that you made
@SecurityBrownStar
It can be a IWB Also. See here ruclips.net/video/4YLPpqZ2jvQ/видео.html Lastly it have the tension adjusted.
It is a huge, wide body for IWB. That would probably help those hooks lock under the belt better but I'm done with this one. I love the Phalanx holster.
Tell us about the arrest
Which one?
Lol which one wow
You said it withing this post.
When you were at the mall with your lady
I enjoy your channel here on RUclips, and in no disrespect, but how could that be a failure against Canik? I myself comes from 15 years of private armed security and executive protection. I have carried many different firearms in many different holsters. As when I first got my Canik two weeks ago, I made sure I had the right size belt for the holster. Anywho, keep up the great videos!
Thank you for the reply. I hope this did not come across as a slam on the gun, just the holster. There are several guns that come with holsters these days like the SIG P365 as well. Their holster, for what it is, does not pose any potential failure on a draw, although I dislike the SIG holster. In my humble opinion, if Canik is going to market it as a system, they should pick something that will not be prone to a failure on a draw. I am getting ready to test a new holster as well and I think Canik should use it based on what i'm finding so far. Thanks again.
@@SecurityAllStar oh not at all. I really enjoy my Canik.
I'm actually going to jump on your website to see what you got.
Buddy, you just don't understand the product. The Canik holster is a hybrid holster. Its meant to be a simple owb holster out of the box ***but it's also meant for you to be able to swap those clips around to the front, wear it inside the waistband and have the clips go over the front of your belt just like almost every other inside the waistband holster in the world.*** I agree with you on the fact that I wouldn't trust my life to this holster carrying it outside the waistband because it uses the quick clips. If you're using it for inside the waistband carry however, it's more than sufficient unless you plan on using a weapons mounted light or laser. Its not a bad holster, it just didn't suit your needs. Of COURSE a quick clip owb holster is meant for nothing other than range use. It should also be mentioned that you should always wear an actual gun belt or at least a very thick belt when carrying a gun. If those hooks don't clip onto your belt, then maybe your micro thin leather dress belt or glorified nylon strap 5.11 Tactical belt wasn't the best choice. Summary. You should have KNOWN from the beginning snap on style holsters are only good for IWB and also should have noticed that this is a hybrid holster. 👍
All good comments but I'm going to probably do a follow-up with the type of clips on the holster. The flexibility of them is too flimsy. I'm not sure why you would practice at the range with something different than you would wear daily. Perfect practice makes perfect. Why don't you share why you would practice with something different from what you would depend on daily?
@@SecurityAllStar I personally only carry this holster as an IWB. So that's how I would use it at the range. 🤷🏻♂️
Okay. *Operator error.
So, why have they since changed the hooks on the holsters?
Dude that whisper at 22 seconds is weird
Yeah, kinda freaky.
Misleading headline!! This is about the holster not the firearm!
Yes, not the gun but the system they sell.
But you’re trying to replace it with the system you sell…

My first look at your channel and I was unimpressed. Misleading title turned me off.
Sorry about that. There are lots of channels. Hope you find what you like.
Clickbait title! Let's not blame the Gun or the Holster for the Operates failure to properly sucure the Holster to his Belt!
Well, we have processed 4 Caniks through the office this week and every one of them appear to have a newly designed hook feature. They are much stiffer than what is on this 2 year model. I think they realized they had a problem.
The holster didn’t fail. You failed. Dont blame equipment for your failure to ensure your weapon is properly secured.
I'm going to respond only because this is a stupid comment. Then why did they change the strength on the clips of the holster. Why has it been redesigned? Don't make a stupid ass comment.
@@SecurityAllStar likewise. It wasn’t the strength of the clip. He failed to ensure the clip was over the belt. Period.
Sit back down
It’s pronounced JAN-ick 🤦🏻♂️
Hmmmm, tomato, potato - can't say it will ever be said correctly in the US.
This is a Clickbait sales pitch.
Not Canik’s fault that you don’t secure your gear properly.
Boo
This holster is NOT easy to secure. That's not fault of the user.
First of all it wasn't a failure of Canik it was a failure from yourself because you didn't have it secured enough. I know this because there are times that I can't get the holster off Without Really Trying. Secondly it's not just an outside the waistband holster if you reverse the hooks it becomes an inside the waistband holster it works as both and I have never had any issues with it as well as several people I know who use it.
Soooooooooooo, why did they change the holster design since this video was done? Why do they come with more stiff hooks now and and adjustable tension. Look, the original design of these was NOT good. That is a failure. In fact, the redesign may have come from constructive criticism.
