Century Arms Canik METE MC9 CA Compliant Handgun 9mm Luger 10rd Magazine(2) 3.18" Barrel FDE Frame

The Century Arms Canik METE MC9 CA Compliant is a 9mm semi-automatic striker-fired pistol purpose-built for California shooters and concealed carry users who want a reliable, no-nonsense handgun without unnecessary complications. At just 21.27 oz with a compact 3.18" barrel and 4.52" overall height, this striker-fired pistol balances controllability with concealability—and it comes California-compliant with a 10-round magazine capacity. Whether you're running it at the range or carrying it daily, the METE MC9 CA delivers the straightforward functionality that works when it matters.

The trigger is designed for practical shooting: smooth take-up, clean break, and a short reset so you're not fighting the gun on follow-up shots. The white dot front sight pairs with a blacked-out rear for fast sight alignment under real-world lighting. A loaded chamber indicator, magazine disconnect safety, and integrated safety round out the safety features—all standard, nothing you have to add later. The polymer frame keeps the gun light, and the FDE finish on this version gives you a clean, professional look that hides wear better than black.

This is an out-of-the-box package deal: two 10-round magazines, a custom holster, magazine loader, cleaning kit, punch and tool set, three grip backstraps for fit, a storage case, and gun lock. That's everything a new owner needs without paying extra for accessories bundled separately elsewhere. Century Arms built this gun in Turkey with the discipline of a purpose-driven design—it does what it's supposed to do reliably and affordably.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Canik METE MC9 CA legal to own and carry in California?

Yes—this model is specifically configured for California compliance, including the 10-round magazine capacity restriction. If you live in California or another state with magazine capacity limits, this pistol is built to meet those requirements out of the box.

What's included in the box, and do I need to buy anything else?

You get two 10-round magazines, a custom holster, magazine loader, cleaning brush and jag rod, punch and tool kit, three grip backstraps, gun lock, manual, and a storage case. This is a complete package; you won't need to source basic accessories separately to get started at the range or for carry.

Is the METE MC9 CA suitable for concealed carry?

Yes. At 21.27 oz with a 3.18" barrel and 4.52" height, it's sized for concealment. The compact frame and low profile work well in IWB holsters and appendix carry setups, and the included custom holster gives you a starting point for carry configuration.

Can I change the grip size to fit my hand better?

Yes—the pistol comes with three different grip backstraps so you can dial in the fit to your hand. This adjustability helps ensure a natural point of aim and consistent trigger control for your specific grip.
