Canik SFx Rival-S – 9mm, 5" Barrel, Stainless Steel Frame, Chrome, 18+1 (HG7010C-N)

The SFx Rival-S is what happens when Canik replaces the polymer frame with stainless steel. The added mass — this pistol weighs 42.72 ounces — flattens the recoil impulse and keeps the sights in the same place shot after shot. That is exactly why steel-frame competition pistols cost what they do, and why this one gets attention. This is the Chrome configuration without an optic, shipping with a competition magwell, two 18-round magazines, three optic plates, a custom holster, and a loaded Tier 2 travel case. Canik part number HG7010C-N, UPC 787450848504.

Steel Frame, Chrome Finish

The "-S" designation is the entire point: a stainless steel frame in place of the polymer used across the rest of Canik's lineup. Weight goes up substantially, and so does shootability — the muzzle stays down, split times tighten, and the sight picture returns to the same spot every time. The Chrome finish is the brighter of the two Rival-S options.

Competition Features, Factory Standard

• Flat-face aluminum trigger — a 90-degree blade, not a polymer curved shoe.
• Click-adjustable rear sight with a fiber optic front, and a spare fiber in the case.
• External competition magwell — included in the case, not an accessory purchase.
• Ambidextrous controls and forward indexing points on the frame.
• 5" barrel for a longer sight radius and more velocity.
• 18+1 capacity, two magazines and an E-Z loader included.

Bring Your Own Optic — Three Plates Included

This SKU ships without an optic, which is the right choice if you already own the dot you want to run. Canik includes three optic plates with the Chrome version, covering footprints including Shield RMSc, Trijicon RMR, Canik ONYXc, Canik PHANTOMc, Canik ONYX XL, Canik PHANTOM, Leupold DeltaPoint Pro, and Vortex Venom. Whatever is in your parts drawer, the plate is probably already in the case.
