The Canik Rival-S delivers competition-grade precision with enhanced ergonomics and premium materials. This striker-fired pistol combines a 5-inch match barrel with stainless steel construction and distinctive rosewood grip panels for superior performance in competitive shooting applications.
What Makes This Different
Built on Canik's proven SFx platform, the Rival-S features a longer sight radius and reduced muzzle flip compared to standard duty pistols. The stainless steel slide and barrel assembly provides corrosion resistance while maintaining tight tolerances for consistent accuracy. Factory trigger pull measures approximately 3.5-4 pounds with a crisp break and short reset.
