"We added a touch of length below the frame and replaced the “cutaway’ grip profile of the Canik SC backstrap with a curving, extended butt. Shooting the SC becomes more comfortable, more natural feeling, and the extra contact area adds control. The built-in mag guide centers your magazine automatically and holds your palm clear of the magwell edges, reducing the tendency to pinch your hand during the reload. Every available space in the backstrap is filled with solid metal (aluminum or brass)."

The backstrap adds more than 3.65 ounces in brass, 1.05 ounces in aluminum – dramatically changing the balance of the gun. With either metal, the gun feels calmer and more “neutrally” balanced. That neutral feel (for us) makes the gun easier to draw, easier to handle, and easier to reload. During the draw the smooth butt lets your hand slide into place easily, getting you into a proper firing grip before you clear leather. Once you grip the gun, the checkering along the waist of the backstrap grips you back, locking the gun to your hand.

Some testimonials

“That’s the perfect length for a subcompact. I can shoot this.” – James Coffey, nationally-known pistol coach.

“With that backstrap, I don’t feel like I have to grip as hard,” – Eric Berkeley, Steel Challenge Master.

“I can’t imagine anyone with an SC not wanting one of those,” – TF’s Michael Fox.

Extended butt offers comfort, control

Reload faster, more confidently.
