Good read.

Slanted hard left, but still a good history.

Caniks are hard to beat.

Every time I hear the name Canik, I think of the interview with their sponsored competitive shooter, who stated that he has to replace his match pistol MONTHLY.

Maybe that is what he is contracted to do with his Canik Sponsor?

I would like some frame of reference for other pro shooters on teams whatever. How often does the sponsored guy shooting every day for Glock or S&W or Springfield or whoever swap out to a new pistol? I have no idea.

I fail to recall. If I had significantly more information off the top of my head that I could readily recall, I'd have stated it. I found it to be an interesting anecdote, didn't give two ****s about it in general, and flushed it.
