Canik SFx Rival-S Darkside 9mm Luger, 5 in Barrel, Steel Frame, Optics-Ready, 18+1, Black
The SFx Rival-S Darkside is Canik's full-size, steel-frame 9mm finished in black and built for precise, repeatable performance. It pairs a 5 in barrel with an 8.09 in overall length and a substantial 42.72 oz unloaded weight, an optics-ready slide with a removable plate, and fully adjustable sights. This example includes four 18-round steel magazines and ships with a comprehensive factory accessory set.
Its slide features front and rear serrations, a top window, and lightening cuts to aid manipulation and balance. The optic cut uses a removable plate for mounting flexibility, while the integral MIL-STD-1913 accessory rail supports lights or other rail-mounted equipment.
Ergonomics include a high undercut trigger guard, a flared magazine well for fast reloads, bilateral slide-stop levers, and textured removable grip panels with RIVAL-S branding. The flat-faced aluminum trigger and striker-fired, semi-automatic action provide a modern, consistent trigger feel with a trigger safety.
The sighting system combines a red fiber-optic front with a serrated, fully adjustable rear. Made in Turkey and imported by Century Arms in Georgia, VT, this Darkside variant carries Canik part number HG7010-N.

Slide cuts, serrations, and the top window reduce reciprocating mass and provide positive purchase during press checks and manipulations. The removable optics plate allows the user to configure the slide for common red dot footprints.
Controls are thoughtfully executed with bilateral slide-stop levers, while the high undercut trigger guard and flared magwell aid control and fast magazine changes. Textured, removable grip panels allow fit tuning.
