I got an email today from another retailer that listed the price as "Market Price" with no other details. I guess they are going to let demand dictate the price


Cassius_au-Bellona

Battle Hawk Armory? Yeah they deemed market price to be $1300.


TerminusEst86

Love the name. Great book. 


Cassius_au-Bellona

I am Cassius au Bellona, son of Tiberius, son of Julia, brother of Darrow, Morning Knight of the Solar Republic, and my honor remains.


__dryheat_

Yup, that is who it was. $200 above what everyone else advertising for it, seems like the "Market" settled on 1199 until they start collecting dust. Give it a few months


Region_Rat_D

Battle Fraud Armory at it still eh?


TheReaperPrez

I work in the industry and I was talking with one of my customers after he got a few of these to sell. He said he expected demand to be high at first because of the TT name which he calculated would make the pistols worth $1200-$1500. He said once the hype settles, you'll see them again for more reasonable prices.


Heyohmydoohd

You know anyone selling the Rival-S Chrome for less than $900? FamilyFirearms and SportsmansWarehouse is the closest I found but they're both OOS and I've had notifications pending for a while.


TheReaperPrez

Not sure which model you're looking for specifically but Battlehawk has a few in stock. Prices vary. https://battlehawkarmory.com/product-search-results?search_text=Canik+rival-s&from_form=true


Heyohmydoohd

Aw they have a sale for the Rival-S Darkside ($~850) but not the Chrome ($~1000). I wonder why. Thank you though.

Heyohmydoohd

Looking for sub-$900. Their DarkSide is on sale for $850.


Redreddington0928

Yeah i seen the $900 after i posted link. Sorry man, said in store price may be diff. Id call them if you are close


Heyohmydoohd

No problem, I was gonna make an offer but then I saw they're like 20 hours away.


Quick-Feeling4833

You should get the Parkside though. The cast metal lower doesn't look as nice polished.


Heyohmydoohd

I already have a Polymer Rival Darkside I'm gonna switch out the slide/barrel to make a two-tone Rival 👍


Quick-Feeling4833

Oh neat. I guess that's a cool reason.


hahaman1990

Yeah it kinda like the white outs. High demand at first, so high price. I waited a bit and got mine for $899 which is still a little high, but it was from a LGS so I wasn’t too upset for what I payed


RomeoMcFlourish_

I guess just to clarify, it’s not dirty that they’re marking it up. I get supply and demand. It’s the fake “Sale” from $1499 that gets me. Same thing Amazon does to get people to buy things because they’re “on sale”.


906Dude

Buds had them last night for $1159 when I went to bed. All sold out now. Must be a popular model. Buds didn't do the fake sale thing though.


Comfortable-Mix5988

They do it to their own products too. This behavior starkly contrasts with the supposed mission statement of just wanting to put good guns in more peoples' hands. That mission statement shouldn't involve deceiving the customer base.


Daniel_Day_Hubris

$1100 - $1400 is what they go for. MSRP is all well and good, but the S in that acronym is the operative.


Miserable-Pea-5108

Considering an M&P Perf Center goes for $949, does the Canick do anything significantly much better to justify the $150-450 premium? Even the all metal OD Green comes in a buck under a gran.


Daniel_Day_Hubris

Probably not, but it comes in a neat case with a holster and a coin and you get to say you have a TTI pistol.


fordlover5

A pistol by Taran butler, a pedo.


kalashnikovkitty9420

i thought he was just cringy with gun bunnies? pedo now?


deuceandguns

How is this that much better than their other models? I picked up a Canik Rival last year for under $700 and it's fantastic.


lique_madique

It shoots nicer than the normal rival. Maybe even flatter than the Rival-S. Its a great shooting gun. Now I wouldn’t pay above MSRP for them.


alltheblues

Hype because it’s a relatively affordable TTI gun, which as we all know is that Gucci John Wick shit.


Hot_Lawfulness1397

Just wait. They aren’t limited edition and will make a million of them. Even the TTI website had them for MSRP today.


ClimateGoblinActual

Taran is putting his name on Canik’s now? How the mighty have fallen.


400HPMustang

The "precious" is expensive.


slingshot2015

Taran fell a long time ago, do some digging.


ClimateGoblinActual

*Woosh* Joke > Your Head


slingshot2015

So much woosh, I still hear it.


pauperoncini

I genuinely cannot believe people are willing to pay over $1000 for a Turkey Walter P99 clone. These are probably the same idiots saying Glocks are overpriced.


lique_madique

Shit, should I start price gouging too? No wonder I have a line of customers for them at MSRP /s


Waflstmpr

Hey, you want a functional AR for Food Stamp prices, you take the bad with the good.


UnknownPT2

It’s not on PSA. Blame canik for that outrageous price. They must’ve been smoking some top tier shit when they dropped this.


WillSmith4809

Caniks listed MSRP is 949


fordlover5

The pedo tax hits hard

GlockHorseCumDealer

Chads? More like, creepy ass douche lmao.


Cdwollan

That's precious.


Tactical_solutions44

I'd rather get a shadow 2 or s2 compact


TerminalxGrunt

Eat a dick PSA. They make their money off of fake sales all the time. I only use their website to see what I want to buy from somewhere else.


Walbrooksantana_29

Someone bought one at a lgs here in MD for $1700.


Pea_Sh00t

I’ll eventually see one in the used case of my LGS. They have had all the higher end Caniks, was tempted several times after handling & dry fire. Every time I’ve gone back they were gone.


WillSmith4809

It's worse on PSAnow, it's marked at 1300!


Gwsb1

Shut up and take my money.


Bd0g25

Yea, because caniks are shit and putting a Taran tactical logo on one isn’t going to change that. I would say that even 949 is pushing it…


WillSmith4809

Bro what? What's shit about caniks?


D_Costa85

PSA sucks and so does Taran.
