Persuading an Anti-gun Person to be Pro-gun // Part 3: Logos
I have just purchased a Model 66-3 with a 6-inch barrel and with no lock!?
Detailed review. Thank you.
I've been shooting for 45 years and didn't get into pistols until about 24 years ago. A gunsmith recommended that to me and I got one in .40 cal. so I did and was pleased with it. That gun and it's mags were made for .40 Unlike most .40s which are 9mms repurposed for .40. .40 s&w isn't normally my bag, but in this gun it really good. I bought another about a year ago in 9mm and love it too. I've have had about 75 pistols in my life, but the Px4 is still my favorite pistol hands down. and my home defense go to. They're incredibly reliable, pointable, pleasant shooting and accurate partially because of the bore axis staying low and parallel to the slide. Anyone can easily get one for $400 so it's a no brainer. You get 14-17+1 in .40 cal. or 17-20+1 in 9mm in a compact-ish full size pistol. Night sights are a good upgrade to make because factory sights point high, but I'd recommend having a gunsmith do it because removing the old ones is a mission impossible on the PX4. Lightening the trigger spring, talon grips and a Langdon trigger bar are nice low cost upgrades. I do wish they made a 1 piece ext./threaded barrel with a wider profile. The factory ones have two piece barrels to save steel in manufacture, which is fine. One piece would be stronger but the PX4 is plenty strong as is. Langdon tactical uses a wider barrel which softens recoil even more. The barrel rotates a whopping 90 deg to unlock, so more weight far from the axis of rotation does slow the slide Even though this gun is over 20 years old now, in my mind this is still the most modern pistol commonly available. The problems with the tilting barrel is the case head doesn't sit flush against the breech face and the locking surfaces aren't symmetrical, they intuitively point low and raise the bore axis. ..They work but like everything there are plusses and minuses. As much as I'm slow to criticize Browning, I think the rotating barrel makes more sense because of lower and more direct bore axis vis a vis the shooter, also rotating barrels are easier to make since they don't need long protrusions like ramps or cam tracks which triple the diameter of steel stock needed to turn them on a lathe. The Langdon tactical versions are more $$, but well worth it for a gun nerd. For most people the stock ones will still be great. Good video, keep up the good work.
NEW SUBSCRIBER helping you on your journey to 1K just got the model 66 -8 with 4.25 barrel,, my 1st revolver LOVE IT
@@chippooutdoors5325 thank you! The 66 rocks
the 4'25 barrel ballances and feels comfortable
It's not meant to be a safe queen. It's a duty class handgun. Also, there was a limited run 586 7-shot version. Very, very hard to find.
Dude do you not own a mirror at all ????? Your hair color is ridiculous!!!
If new mossberg 590. If old 70's 870. I have a 870 wing MASTER from 78. Only thing I have changed is the tube SPRING. NUFF said. 😊
Can you pull trigger and drop the hammer when the bolt is not fully locked to the bolt?
This is a dumb video 0:36 … buy both
I have a red dot on my super blackhawk .44 mag. It’s sweet. I did have to look for the dot at first but now I know where to start n no prob. It’s way easier on my old eyes and only weighs a few ounces. Compared to a traditional scope it’s nothing.
The Remington's trigger house sits with two pins - it doesn't get knocked off if hit sideways. The shell lifter in the Mossberg can pop out if the gun is dropped - renders the gun useless untill taken appart. Remington has terrible coating - can be fixed. Steel reciever lasts + 500000 shots. Mossberg's last 20000. (With the UN's law of stopping all guns for civilian use, a good lasting gun for your childrens grandchildren is adviced)
I like hogue better than magpul
What's with your hair? Stop that!
😂
not being able to dry fire a gun in a store would be weird. but if you find that offensive then youre 100% part of the reason its not allowed. thats even more odd.
How do you like the red dot on your revolver? Would you do it again? I'm considering putting one on my 6" Colt Python for shooting at the range 50-100yd targets. Any suggestions/advice?
I own a 66 6" I bought brand new in the early 80s
My opinion is they are ugly on a revolver. With that said my ageing eyes, I have revolvers that I don't shoot any more because the back sight is a blurr. Yes I can put my cheeters on and its clear but down range is a blurr. I'm looking to put one on my gp100. Thanks for the video.
In high school I had a model 27.5 it's a 44 special version of the six shot 357
The problem is that the benefits of the rotating barrel are undone by the slick non existant grip. It slips in your hands too much.
That is so easily resolved, grip tape or send off for stippling.
Weird, my wife has a 6" barrel 617. Zero issues at all. The rounds always fire. We aren't even that particular about ammo storage. Though at 11:00 he talks about the cylinder not closing well after so many rounds, but we can go more than 20 rounds.
Good review, a no BS approach, accurate and useful. Still timely 2 years later. Thanks for creating and posting it.
I’m a California native and own a G17. I like the way they shoot. I’ve had a G19 and a G36. The 17 feels better. My advice for owning a Glock is to absolutely resist the temptation to upgrade the internal parts. Keep it stock.
No I'm 5'6 mine good I shoot my stoeger an my winchester not hard shoot one handed
It seems like a red dot in a revolver would be better than on a modern pistol because you don't have to worry about the sight moving back and forward with the slide
DA/SA requires deeper training and better trigger than striker firedm9
The LTT trigger set up is magic. Yes, just like a manual transmission, it takes a wee bit of practice and competence.
what do you mean by that Turkish thing ? I am turkish and I wanna know. Also isn't stoager American brand? they produce in turkey but so what?
I bought it for $1000 recently. this is Kazakhstan.
I own the Px4 and a glock 17. The Px4 is a much better gun. Higher quality, better trigger, and just looks cool!
I agree the storm looks cool but not as cool as the 92. That exposed barrel is gorgeous
I picked 870 because it’s easier to take apart, clean and I like the finish on it better
my 617 had a lot of issues as well (light primer strikes, out of time and canted barrel). those were fixed by the factory. i think not being able to close the cylinder may be due to leadbuild at the gas shield. maybe the cylinders were not 100% aligned with the bore. during the first cylinder or 2 after coming back from the factory i got a dud which i thought was a light primer strike but it truly was just a dud. since being fixed the gun has been working well. the trigger is on the heavier side compared to centerfire smiths and the trigger breaks differently in some chambers compared to others but overall i am now happy with the gun. they repaired the yoke, recut the forcing cone and replaced the extractor
Great Video, looking at picking one of these up. I think you just solidified my decision. Subbed
It's hard to say without examining your particular revolver, but part of the issue of closing the cylinder after a few rounds may be the accumulation of unburned powder and othet fouling under the extractor. This area must be kept clean and dry. Clean the area under the extractor and the recess in the cylinder, lube the area with only one drop of oil, then wipe the lube off with a clean dry patch. See if that helps. Also, it's a patridge front sight, not a partridge front sight. The front sight on you M19 is a Baughman Quick-draw. Yeah, I'm being a little picky... Thanks for posting.
Yeah, I'd have it immaculately clean, including under the ejector star, and the problems would occur within 20 rounds. Oh ok. I didn't know that was called that! =) Thanks for teaching me something!
You're welcome! You're certainly not alone. Many, many people call it a partridge sight. On your M19, Google "Baughman front sight history" for some interesting tidbits. Also, if you're not doing it already, try ejecting the empty cartridges with the barrel vertical, muzzle up and snap the extractor, don't pump it. At the end of the stroke, roll your thumb off the extractor rod and let the extractor snap back into place. The quicker, the better. Hope I explained that well enough. If you have an assortment of ammo, Federal, Remington, Winchester, etc. see if you notice any difference in the amount of debris left behind. Some brands burn cleaner than others. High velocity vs standard velocity ammunition may also show a difference. If all else fails, keep an old toothbrush handy and brush the recess the extractor sits in and the underside of the extractor occasionally, even if you don't see any build up. These tips work well on centerfire revolvers as well. Hope this helps. Good luck! @@steelbearacademy8855
2024, I just ordered a P220 Legion 10mm SAO, Steel slide & frame, optic ready. I carry a Beretta 92x RDO Compact & Sig P938 Legion, for home defense a Sig P320 X-Ten . Imho, the Glock isn't even "in the game", the only thing that beats a all metal hammer fired gun is another all metal hammer fired gun, polymer can't compete. Interesting video though. 👍👍.
And I've never had a problem, even with protruding safety parts, or other crap, even with my Colt service 1911.
If you notice the difference in recoil, and barrel flip, it's a lot. Shoot a sig, and the storm, side by side.
Charter arms are nice revolvers with terrible triggers, i can work a smith or ruger trigger down to a about a smooth 7 1/2-8 1/2 pounds and i cant even get an accurate read on a charter arms because the triggers are so heavy.
Great comparison.
Mossberg son
Loooong. 8 years & great stuff but cant. Reduced version with 8 years of experience with this gun. Possibly the best. But
Great review 👍
I have the exact same firearm, German Tank Great gun
I have a couple of Mossbergs, but I bought a Remington 870 recently. I had always had the idea in the back of my mind that I would buy one if I came across a bargain, and that finally happened in the form of a Wingmaster from the 1950s. It really is a beautiful gun. I have a great deal of respect for the 870, and I enjoy shooting mine, but I still think the Mossberg design has a slight edge. I like that the lifter is out of the way during loading, and I think the placement of the controls is better too. The alloy receiver is a plus in my book. I've never heard of one breaking, and it's lighter than steel. The AR15 has an aluminum receiver too, and nobody seems to object to that. That being said, the reason this is still an ongoing debate is because they are both so good that you really can't go wrong with either of them.
I don’t know about Falco, but I’m looking at Galco leather holsters for my Redhawk. I had the bbl shortened from 7 1/2” to 4 1/2”
And am considering a red dot for deer hunting out to 50 yards.
N frame!
Wrong, model 27 was the first.
Folks with gen 1 glocks (roughly) 38 ish years old are being to the polymer frame has become brittle and should be replaced I have a 110 and a 106 year old steel 1911. Both have been cared for and don’t have rust issues and still shoot 230 round nose bullets as well as they did in 1913 and 1917. Know of any 100 year old Glocks ? Just saying polymer is good and in some ways better than steel and in some worse. It’s just different is all.
Oops being told by Glock that their frame is brittle.
My 3 1911s have run wonderfully.
You can't ham fist a 1911.
The front strap checkering is one feature that I really miss. Coming from H&K USPs and Sig 1911s, I miss the checkering. It is a fighting gun. It should be checkered.
My father was sent to Okinawa during WW II. He was involved in some of the heaviest fighting using a government issue Garand and 1911. No checkering yet he came back alive. Checkering isn't needed for a " fighting" handgun.🙂
I checker mine 25 LPI, easy enough, or skateboard tape if you like. Problem solved
If you " LIKE " the checkering, I will never get in anyone's way to checker their gun to their heart's content. Checker away. Your money, your gun. But is it " necessary " for the serious stuff of fighting a war or defending one's home?? An empathetic NO is the legitimate answer. I've read a lot of news of guns being used in a life and death situation, NO ONE has ever mentioned, " I won the gunfight with the cretin because my gun has 25 lpi checkering. Thank GOD for those checkering".
@@EndOfThings77, checkering is still a good idea. Those pistols were made to government specifications. They're awesome but still less than they can be.
No camparison. Mossberg all the way!
