Ugh…. Guys… don’t call them “C”aniks…

Were you at my range yesterday? I haven't seen these on the ground in a while.

Are those after firing those nasty polymer coated bullets? Why do people use those

No that’s the nasty fluted chamber of the G3 family rifle from heckler and kosh

 

[SpaceCritter]

I keep scanning the thread titles quickly, and read this one as "Don't call them "C"ankles"

Mine always dents the necks much worse than that. The fluted chamber marks give it away though. That is a dirty gun.

Yeah, that looks like the brass from an HK93 they can get really mangled and flung into another zip code; I only know from shooting a friend’s one.

91, 308. These were like 30 feet downrange from the firing line. I was walking down to set up my target and was like what the heck was someone doing shooting all the way down here... oh.

Looked like they had an MP5 variant out too, unless there's a 9mm handgun with a fluted chamber.

Who gives a f***?

You do, it seems.

 

[greencobra]

wait, this isn't the politically correct way to refer to canadians? can-nuk? so they're jan-uk now? so vancouver jan-uks? ok, fine.

 

[Dennis in MA]

I get it. That happens to me all the time. My name is pronounced. Gwqitgm.

I mean, get it right, guys.

The HK P7 series does.

I'm glad I saw this before I went to the store and didn't buy one. Close call for sure.

Whether one is more authentic to the language doesn't matter if the manufacturer is Americanizing the pronunciation it for their US market. Their own videos on Canik USA - Superior Firearms pronounce it can-ick.

Regardless, OP is right as far as it goes to correct Turkish

Jan-eek since the i with the dot on top is prounounced like i in incredible sort of.

And dotless ı is like "uuuhh" with your throat. Like the e in open but deeper.

This concludes today's Turkish lesson.

 

[Broc Tuah]

Had an argument today and I realized the truth appear somehow to be a public secret lol…

FFS folks, please don’t call those pistols Canik. The correct pronunciation is Janik…with bias on the “i”…

And now you know

I thought it was pronounced:

 

[Mark from ?]

Who gives a f***?

What I was thinking....and who gives a fXck enough to get in an argument about it??!!!

 

[btnh6668]

So what I heard was everyone is going to call it "c"anik

 

[bmac10]

We are Americans and will pronounce it however we please.

Should never talk about Broc's sister like that!

My wife does a great dotless i.

Well, there's another hard 'C' word I'm not supposed to say... but probably will.
