We’ve been anticipating the release of Canik’s new collaboration with Radian Weapons since we first laid hands on it at SHOT Show in January, and it’s finally here. The Canik Prime Radian is a 9mm micro-compact handgun developed from the popular Mete MC9 Prime platform and built with premium Radian components. 
 

According to Canik marketing director Jeff Rose, the Radian Prime offers upgrades beyond being just another option in polymer carry pistols. 

"By combining CANiK's award-winning Mete MC9 Prime platform with Radian's advanced recoil-mitigation technology, we've created a carry pistol that shoots flatter, tracks faster, and delivers unmatched performance," Rose noted.

Radian’s ported Ramjet barrel and Afterburner compensator work together to reduce recoil and enhance accuracy, while the Radian backstrap and magwell provide comfortable, controllable ergonomics for fast, precise shooting. The Prime Radian is ready to host your favorite optic, whether it’s a Shield RMSc, Canik ONYXc, Canik PHANTOMc, or other similar footprint model. Plus, it sports Night Fision Tritium front and rear night sights for low-light conditions. 

With a 3.83-inch barrel, 5.5-inch height, and 25-ounce weight, the Prime Radian is highly concealable and offers a standard capacity of 17+1 (state-compliant 10-round configurations are also available). 
 

The Prime Radian comes in a Black or Prime Grey finish and ships with two 17-round magazines, a hard case, Canik holster, and tool kit, all for an MSRP of $899.99.
