This METE SFx uses a 5.20 in non-threaded barrel in a long-slide configuration for a longer sight radius and added muzzle stability. Lightening ports and front and rear slide serrations aid manipulation while keeping the slide responsive. Overall length is 8.29 in, with an unloaded weight of approximately 1.88 lb.
The slide is optics-cut, and on this configuration the rear sight is mounted to the removable cover plate; the rear sight is removed when an optic is installed. This pistol falls within Canik’s pre-26BY optic-footprint range that supports RMSc and RMRcc patterns, providing straightforward micro-red-dot compatibility.
Ergonomics and controls are thoughtfully executed: a flat-faced, short-reset, single-action trigger with nickel-coated action components, ambidextrous slide stop levers, and a left-side magazine release. The FDE polymer frame includes interchangeable backstraps and a 3-slot 1913/Picatinny accessory rail on the dust cover.
Sight configuration is a 3-dot white set with a white-dot front and a two-dot rear on the optics cover plate. Safety features include a trigger safety lever, a firing pin block, and a striker-status indicator. Capacity is 20+1 with the extended magazine, and this example ships with both 20- and 18-round factory steel mags.
Markings and origin details include the CENTURY ARMS INC GEORGIA, VT import stamp and "Made in Turkey." This two-tone, optics-cut SFx is cataloged under Canik SKU HG5635-N (UPC 787450607651) within the METE series and full-size category.
