Canik METE SFT 9mm Black 4.46″ 20+1 Optics-Ready Pistol
The Canik METE SFT is a full-size 9mm pistol that combines Canik’s proven striker-fired design with the ergonomic and functional improvements of the METE series.
The HG6595N configuration features a 4.46-inch match-grade barrel, 20+1 maximum capacity, black nitride optics-ready steel slide and polymer frame. Supplied with both 20-round and 18-round magazines, the METE SFT provides substantial capacity in a versatile full-size platform.
Full-Size METE SFT Platform
The Canik METE SFT occupies the general-purpose full-size position within Canik’s METE family, offering a balance between the smaller METE SF and the longer performance-oriented METE SFx.
Its full-size dimensions make the METE SFT well suited for:
- Firearms training
- Target shooting
- Recreational range shooting
- Competition-oriented practice
- General-purpose handgun ownership
4.46-Inch Match-Grade Barrel
The METE SFT features a 4.46-inch black match-grade barrel designed around the full-size proportions of the platform.
The barrel length provides a practical middle ground between Canik’s compact METE SF and extended-barrel METE SFx configurations.
20+1 and 18+1 Capacity
The Canik METE SFT supports substantial magazine capacity, and this HG6595N configuration includes both 20-round and 18-round magazines.
Maximum capacity is 20+1 when using the 20-round magazine, while the included 18-round magazine provides an 18+1 configuration.
Black Nitride Steel Slide
The METE SFT features a black nitride steel slide with aggressive front and rear serrations.
The slide serrations provide substantial gripping surfaces for manipulation while the all-black treatment gives the pistol a clean and understated appearance.
Optics-Ready Design
The Canik METE SFT incorporates an optics-ready slide designed to accommodate compatible micro red dot sights.
The METE optic system allows shooters to configure the pistol around an electronic sight while retaining the factory iron sights as part of the overall sighting system.
METE Series Ergonomics
Canik developed the METE platform with a number of ergonomic improvements over earlier handgun designs.
The METE SFT combines a full-size grip with revised frame geometry, an improved beavertail and enhanced texturing designed to provide a comfortable and secure interface between the shooter and pistol.
Interchangeable Backstraps
The METE SFT includes interchangeable backstraps, allowing shooters to adjust the grip interface to better accommodate different hand sizes and preferences.
The customizable grip system complements the full-size frame and helps make the pistol adaptable to a wide variety of shooters.
Ambidextrous Slide Release
The Canik METE SFT features an ambidextrous slide release, providing convenient operation from either side of the handgun.
The magazine release is also reversible, allowing the control arrangement to accommodate different shooter preferences.
Striker-Fired Operation
The METE SFT uses a modern semi-automatic striker-fired operating system with an integrated trigger safety and internal firing pin block.
The straightforward operating system complements the modern controls and full-size architecture of the METE platform.
Integrated Picatinny Accessory Rail
The polymer frame incorporates an integrated Picatinny accessory rail beneath the barrel.
The rail provides mounting space for compatible accessories and adds versatility for different training and recreational shooting configurations.
Flared Magazine Well
The Canik METE SFT incorporates a factory-designed magazine well that complements the full-size grip and high-capacity magazine system.
The METE frame design provides a streamlined transition around the magazine opening while maintaining the ergonomic characteristics of the pistol.
Loaded Chamber and Striker Indicators
The METE SFT incorporates both a loaded chamber indicator and striker status indicator.
These features provide additional visual information about the current condition of the pistol.
METE SFT vs. METE SF
The METE SFT and METE SF share Canik’s modern METE architecture but occupy different size categories.
The METE SFT uses a 4.46-inch barrel and full-size grip, while the METE SF uses a shorter approximately 4.19-inch barrel and compact 15-round grip.
The SF prioritizes more compact dimensions, while the SFT provides additional grip space and magazine capacity.
METE SFT vs. METE SFx
The Canik METE SFT also sits below the METE SFx in overall size.
The SFT uses a 4.46-inch barrel, while the SFx extends barrel length to approximately 5.2 inches and uses a longer slide designed with performance and competition shooting in mind.
For shooters who want a full-size METE without the extended proportions of the SFx, the SFT provides a versatile middle ground.
