PDP is the best of these, but I think that ship has sailed.

There are tons of P10Fs out there and CZ has probably been in the top two most common brands in Canada for as long as I've been shooting [20 years] so I wouldn't worry about aftermarket support...it will be there for the most popular guns.

I would guess that there are a lot more P10Fs in Canada than all P320 variants combined, but I can't prove that. Keep in mind that a P10F was around $500 two years ago.

Ahh good to know. There's a few places with P10F still. I'm going to give it a few more days to see if a random PDP shows up. But if nothing, I'll probably pick up the P10F.

PDPs have been out of stock for a while now. Always a chance some surface I suppose.

By the way, what's your take on the mp 2.0?

Personally not a fan of how they fit my hand, and the trigger, while better than the gen 1, isn't as good as the P10F and nowhere near as good as the Walther PDP. Also, the mag release button has a sharp edge where the grip contours to the button that I find annoying.

I actually like the P10 triggers as they have a solid wall which I find a lot easier to shoot than a creepier trigger. Canik and Walther have the best striker fired triggers in my opinion, but I find the P10 just as easy to shoot.

Thanks for the info. I did read that the mp 2.0 trigger is not that great.

I heard good things about Canik but I don't really know much about them.

Canik are Walther clones. Turkish, but good quality and showing up back in stock the past few days. Good guns, a friend bought a Canik Rival post ban and it's a great gun.

Ah hmm, are they better than the P10F?

The Rival is more competition oriented, and kinda funky looking. It's a better gun then a P10F... optics ready and comes with a bunch of extras.

Canik in general are very good value, but a lot of their models are a bit unorthodox in one way or another, whereas a P10F is a straightforward striker fired pistol.

Ahh good to know, I saw one that was very well priced not too long ago but held off because I didn't know much about the brand. It wasn't the rival but it was another popular model when I googled it.
