How to choose the best holster for your Canik TP9 Elite SC
When selecting the right Canik TP9 SC Elite holster, start by considering your preferred carry style—inside the waistband, outside the waistband, appendix, or even off-body carry.

Craig B.
Ordering a custom holster is very nerve-wracking, and when my gun guy at the store suggested "craft holsters" I said. Your kidding right? I couldn't find the right fit for my canik because it's trigger guard is wider than other pistols wich makes retention a problem. But after a few days of thought and concideration, thinking to myself "if this doesn't work, I'm gonna trade my pistol for something else. I gotta have a good holster and my canik tp9 elite sc is a very good pistol and not something you get rid of because your holster doesn't fit right. But I don't need a lot of other handguns either. I only need a couple for the range and for EDC. So I made the call. To say the least, my "craft holster" is the best holster by far in my varied collection of different carry styles. In fact I'm going to probably buy a couple more different styles because of my differing carry situations. Thank you Craft Holsters You guys are the best!
