Bubba_the_Fudd@reddit

Has there been any info lately on the Tisas 2011s that are replacing the macs becoming available? Thought I’d heard something about mid or late April.

[-]

prudiisten@reddit

Is he running the whole show or just the new US branch.

[-]

Kingandcountry190213@reddit (OP)

Thanks for sharing! I didn't know that.

[-]

Jrofalk@reddit

Wait are we going from Turkshit to Turkdecent?

[-]

Psychological-Bad959@reddit

Turkish pistols have always been pretty decent, no? I've always heard SAR, Tisas, and Canik as pretty safe options. I think it's the shotguns that have a bad rep

[-]

Yeah usually when I hear about dogshit Turkish guns it's the shotguns. There's probably some brand of handguns that are absolute turkshit. But Tisas, canik, and Sar all seem to be great. Have had 3 caniks and they have all been stellar. I have a Tisas 1911 raider that's great, and plan to get a Sar or 2 in the future.

[-]

Vandrel@reddit

My Sar9 CX has been pretty much flawless for probably 600 rounds or so at this point.

[-]

7ddlysuns@reddit

My Sar was a pleasant surprise.

[-]

Dak_Nalar@reddit

Ya Kaya the CEO of Tisas USA explained that in Turkey you need a lot of licenses and quality checks to manufacture pistols, while just about anyone can get a license to manufacture shotguns. So the result is tons and tons of turkshit shotguns, but Turkish Pistols are actually good quality.

pandamonia23@reddit

maybe one day it would be Turkcellent and Turkfect

[-]

Diligent-Parfait-236@reddit

Sighed and ripped out my wallet for a $230 1911 duty.

My credit lives for another day.

[-]

cyclorphan@reddit

same

[-]

billoo18@reddit

That’s what I was expecting too.

[-]

burritoresearch@reddit

As long as the Turkish Lira currency remains in its current state for exchange to US dollar, deals like this will continue for the next several years, I think.

[-]

SuspendBrady4Games@reddit

Tell that to the MP5 clones 😭

[-]

accounts_baleeted@reddit

You mean the sub $1k clones that have never been this cheap?

[-]

pandamonia23@reddit

Where are you guys finding the AP5 for sub 1k?

[-]

TheGreatSockMan@reddit

Not an AP5, but MAC makes an MP5 clone for ~$800-900

[-]

sickels61@reddit

Wait for the holiday sales they usually pop up during that time. Atlantic firearms usually has that deal.

[-]

Friendly_Cod7820@reddit

FYI, they took away the sub 1k “core” model so price didn’t actually increase they just arent selling the cheapest version anymore

[-]

pandamonia23@reddit

Right. I emailed them a few weeks back and this is what they told me:

There will be no more AP5 LT pistols imported that contract has been closed and was only filler production for MKE

[-]

evasive-manuever@reddit

I just bought an AP5 a few weeks ago for $1030+shipping. There was only 1 in stock at the time. Check around at the usual drop shipping/will ship straight from the distributor online sites.

[-]

Echo_Raptor@reddit

Not as often but they were sub-$1k every other week for awhile there

[-]

pandamonia23@reddit

Must've been pre-FRT

[-]

Echo_Raptor@reddit

I think they were available at the time but there was a lot of stock. People weren’t buying them at the $1500-1700 prices when HKs were dropping in the $2000s. Now the HKs have all dried up

[-]

pandamonia23@reddit

I'll just HODL until the prices are sub 1k. Hopefully production ramps up and people stop buying soon. I'm thinking prices might be good towards the end of summer maybe? I heard people don't really go to the range around summer time compared to other times of the year

[-]

Echo_Raptor@reddit

Maybe so. You can get the ap5 cores and Mac 5k’s usually under a grand. The HKs have become unobtainium outside of MSRP here and there. The clones are fine if you don’t need the two roll marks..I had to, so I’m not judging either way there lol

[-]

Diligent-Parfait-236@reddit

They're definitely not just now finding several year old posts, they've never been cheaper than these listings I found today.

[-]

spank_the_tank@reddit

For real, they are so cheap 😂 you could get both Century Arms variants for less than 1 HK.

[-]

FlyingYankee118@reddit

What are you talking about MP5s have never even come close to being this affordable

$270 taxed and shipped... that extra $40 totally killed the deal for me. Plus my shitty ffl fee, ends up being like $310 in my hand

[-]

richiecotite@reddit

That’s still not a bad price, assuming these are decent (which I’d bet they are).

Canik’s used to be this cheap, now they’re almost as much as glocks

[-]

consistentfontusage@reddit

Honestly, I still bought one. Just wish I could have gotten it without the PSA tax. And yeah, I wish caniks were still cheap. Great guns

[-]

Kingandcountry190213@reddit (OP)

That’s what I was telling myself to keep myself out of the doghouse! 😂

[-]

Desperate_Exercise13@reddit

OOS.

[-]

Mr_Butterman@reddit

I bought one and it stovepiped every mag. Tried all sorts of brands, 115g and 124g ammo and I changed the spring but nothing helped.

[-]

Apprehensive-Cod95@reddit

OOS! You animals

[-]

Njanear@reddit

Thank goodness! I really didn't need yet another 'good deal' - at least not until I get another safe.

[-]

Hisetic@reddit

Have one of these without the threaded barrel. Bought it for 230 3 years ago I believe. Great pistol for this price.

[-]

Factor_Seven@reddit

I'd jump on this in a heartbeat if I didn't have the exact same pistol already. I was just telling somebody yesterday about how it was a the steal when I got it for $250. The thing's in absolute tack driver.

[-]

Shock-Broad@reddit

I paid $250 for one of these used with a holosun 407co mounted on it.

Its insanely good for the money. The trigger is very nice and its got a ton features for the money. That being said, its incredibly low on my shooting priority list because I have too many guns.

[-]

DrNinjaPandaManEsq@reddit

I don’t need another 9mm in FDE, I don’t need another 9mm in FDE

Just to clarify for everyone—SDS Imports officially ended its partnership with Tisas in February 2026. This means SDS is no longer handling warranty or service support for Tisas-made firearms like the PX-9. If you run into mechanical issues, getting support through the original importer is effectively no longer an option.

[-]

joman8390@reddit

True, but Tisasarmsusa, the new importer is handling warranty claims for the previous stuff the made to and was imported by SDS

[-]

consistentfontusage@reddit

I put in "new10" as a discount code and it took off the shipping if anyone is on the fence

[-]

yami76@reddit

"Today only"

[-]

Recent-Honey5564@reddit

The tactical/nightstalker definitely looks a lot better but for this price if you’ve been curious about Tisas…just do it. You won’t be disappointed. I have the tactical and the carry comp and they’re both insanely impressive at a price that can’t be beat. Tisas has really done something great with the PX series and they’re both insanely fun with top tier triggers, they deserve way more love. I’m 1000 rounds in with the tactical with 0 issues, smooth as butter.
