Iraqveteran8888 what do you consider an early import model for the CZ? If I was to purchase the CZ 75 SP 01 would that be considered early import? Thank you!
Thank you Eric, Would like your opinion as a fellow Georgian, have a CZ75BD with 10 round Mags, slightly used, I can pick up for $399.00. Never have owned a CZ so would appreciate your professional opinion. Thank you
My local gun store has a wide variety. Just got a cz75 clone from SAR for 300 even. It felt amazing in my hands and the sights were awesome. Plus 17rnd mag. Plus everyone has a Glock. I could've afforded one they just bore me
I just got a SD9. Which the only difference is the slide on yours. I hate the trigger. I’m replacing it. You find it to be ok? I’m used to a Glock 17. Just curious on your opinion
@@finestnedmark the SD9 is a gun for see defense hence the “SD”. That’s why the trigger pull sucks so bad. Your not accidentally going to shoot it, when you pull the trigger.. you mean to. It’s a nice looking gun and they’re pretty cheap but the trigger pull is the most of any gun that I’m aware of. May be great for some, not for myself.
sfv6 there's is life or death in the tongue. Will eat the fruit of what you speak. I'm in NY and I say that NY will change for the better for gun rights
Love cz! I have a number of friends that were glock or springfield people, never heard of cz until they shot mine and now they own one and it's their favorite to shoot
I own a 75B and have had nothing but issues with it. Trigger reset springs breaking, firing pin roll pin breaking, etc. I really hope I just have a dud but it killed the CZ for me.
@Hans Stein I would, but at this point I have replaced and fixed so much myself that it would likely void warranty. That is fine though, as it was a carry pistol for the longest time but I am looking into a new carry option anyways and will just keep this as a semi-functional collectors piece more than anything. Still love the history and look of the gun, but I won't likely ever conceal carry a CZ again if only based on my personal experiences with their products. Probably will just buy a G19 or a P228 instead.
Hunter Jordan Yes, I have had the P226 in 9mm for over two years and have easily put 3000 rounds through it. It has only failed once, and that was a dud round. It was struck solidly but did not fire. Sig is known the world over as a high quality firearm and for it not to have been included in this group had to have been an oversight or they just smoked some really good shit that day.
Codeine Cowboy first handgun I’d go with the 9mm glock. I’m no glock fanboy but the 1911 style handguns are a lot trickier to field strip to clean and are not as well rounded for every category that a glock style weapon would be. A .45 wouldn’t be a bad idea if you got it in a style other than 1911. .38 super is a no go for your first. My father has a 1911 chambered in .38 Super and it’s a beast of a pistol, definitely wouldn’t recommend
My dad bought a p95 in 1998, never ever fired it a single time, fast forward to last week (May 2020), we took it to the range for the first time and it ate 100 rounds with no issues. We never even oiled it
My dad owned several firearms. He let me use his P95 to go target shooting with him. This was back in 1997 . It was a nice handgun. He passed away in 1999 but I don't know what happened to it
I miss you Barry. I can't ever watch a IV8888 video without seeing your ghost in it. Your genuine commentary and personality were on a whole other level.
Love the SD9VE and the SW40GVE! Did some custom work to my GVE and it's nice. The SD9 shoots like a dream used with no work. I used to own a third SW40VE but sold it back for a profit. They are almost as good as Glocks, and just as reliable. I got all of mine used for under $175 (the SW40VE I got for 125.)
I remember always waiting and looking forward to each video from you guys. Just started watching and it took me a while to remember that Barry is no longer with us. Felt just like old times. . . Sure do miss you friend.
I’ve had the SD9VE for years, shot close to 1000 rounds with one jam the whole time. Had to switch to the apex trigger, and put some night sights on there, but it’s such a good gun
My list would be: Beretta M9/92 FS, HK USP, SIG P226, CZ 75, Glock 19. 1st runner up: Browning Hi-Power. But I realize the price point on these is higher than the ones in this video.
SRs are indeed good pistols, and they are better and more advanced in terms of hardware than the P95 ever has been, but...hey, people still buy 1911s for $1000+, they should be able to buy a regular DA/SA hammer-fired pistol for $300. Though the new 9E looks to be good.
have to agree the cz is one smooth gun. i dont know much about guns in fact i just went shooting for the first time today. but after shooting a 9mm shield, a glock 43 and 19, a Walter pps back to back, then at the end a cz p07. the cz was just so effortless I wasn't expecting it. it's almost like the cadillac.

These days the Canik TP9SFX deserves a place on this list. 20+1 capacity, red dot ready, factory offers suppressor sights, threaded barrel, different slide catches, mag releases, back straps, and recoil spring weights. Great gun, reliable, and extremely accurate.
Barry, You are sorely missed. You told us your honest opinion about guns. Very rare these days! Most people are being used by the gun companies as a spokesman. I don't know what happened to you. But no one can take your place. RIP Barry. May our Flag wave always above our country. They will never take our guns from us. Amen. Shawn
I'm glad they gave the CZ 75 some love. I've shot them all, and the CZ was BY FAR the most comfortable gun to shoot. Very low bore axis, smooth operation and very accurate right of the box.
This is beyond ironic, I turn 21 in 3 days and am looking to purchase my first handgun. I've been looking at the SD9VE and Eric says "if you're watching this 3 years from the date this video was made prices might change" and today is exactly 3 years.
SDVE9 is a great first gun. Bought mine for under $300 brand new! Love it! I agree with the trigger kit. It's a little stiff. Otherwise it's a perfect first gun!
+Bryson Wilkinson Been carrying the Springfield XDS .45 every day for a year and a half. I shoot it weekly and it's reliable as hell. Maybe yours was junk. Or perhaps operator error.
Thanks guys! You helped me make my mind up. I have been looking and was seeking different opinions on hadguns. I was thinking the sd9ve was probably right for me and you confirmed it. It's not over priced yet seems to be a quality handgun for a first time buyer.
John Dominy that's so true... I told my self after buying the M92 pap I was not buying any other guns ever... a glock 29 and xd mod 2 later I'm still saying I'm not buying anything else lol..
H&K P7 psp; spend half your life watching RUclips , carry and shoot a P7 for one day, a natural extension of your pointer finger. Use your college fund to get one if you have to,;it’ll give you better returns.
My first gun was a Ruger P95. Was rated, as you said, the most accurate out of the box polymer framed handgun during its time. I had problems with shooting cheap ammo and it would stove pipe the shell, but other than that, great firearm.
I have the Canik Tristar c-100. It's a clone of the CZ 75 Compact. At about 2/3rds the price of a CZ. I am SO glad someone turned me on to it. I had no idea Turkey made such high quality guns, and you can't beat the price. Some things are interchangeable with the CZ also, like grips, holsters, and magazines. I am an old-timer, hammer fired guy, and want a safety on any auto-loader that does not have a true double action pull, and this Canik has a manual safety that works in all hammer positions. DOwn, half cock, and full cock. The only drawback is no de-cocker, but I can live with that just like I do with my lever guns.
Every gun you named on there besides the shield is about 200 buckss more than a shield,glock, or a standard XD. Ya those guns you named are great but for an average shooter those are out of the price range my friend. And its not a sigma, its the sd9 ve, it's a pretty damn good gun too if you can get yourself used to the trigger
I have a Glock 19 and I'm currently holster shopping, because I'm looking for a change. Do you have any recommendations for great concealment holsters?
+Diode73 I have a few Alien Gear Holsters. All very Nice. But i found a Holster company that IMO, makes the nicest Holsters ive ever seen, and thats Stitchdex.com
For a beginner, I believe the P250 is the best option for a myriad of reasons. Once that trigger is mastered, then its appropriate to move on to a striker gun.
actually, a novice will do better with a striker fired gun, at least with fast follow up shots. they do well with 1911`s as well but, there`s the safety issue with a 1911 that needs to be understood before you turn em loose with that gun
05 mustang gt Sooooo many nicer pistols out there. Especially for the price. My dad's Block 19 won't run a whole mag without a malfunction, so don't hold your breath. lol
what, no love for the Springfield XD/XDMs, or the Sig P226? C'mon guys, how can those be excluded while guns like the P95 or SD9 get in? Especially the Sig P226! That is a major oversight to me, I'd gladly take a Sig over a Ruger, they're much better made IMO. Still like the video but feel some very important ones were omitted!
I think the guys in the vid were concerning costs though watching it again. The SIG is pricey, but a flawless piece of work, and its got a little style. The Glock is hands down perfect and a decent cost, but totally utilitarian. A SIG P226 though would always be my first choice.
I like the P229 a little better but I completely agree. the 226 and the G19 for sure. But the Sig offerings are more than anything on the table there. Maybe the Sig will make it into their Military handgun review. Along with the 92FS/M9 which i'm surprised also wasn't mentioned. That may be why
Taurus Millenium G2 9mm for me. Field strip of a glock, awesome grip, double-stack 12rd bags, just as slim as the shield, better trigger than the Shield imho [have shot both].
+Terry Goheen Oh I know plenty of people probably do. To be specific, I don't like the way they implemented a safety trigger. I prefer the glock style they used on the Taurus and of course on glocks. That hinged trigger thing drove me nuts. But that's just me.
It's cool that you covered these pistols. Seems like most youtubers love to cover 700-900 dollar pistols but to me, a pistol is a sidearm, it's a back up weapon so there's only so much it needs to do. A basic combat pistol just needs to be able to feed and fire, with basic combat range accuracy at 7 yds, and do so repeatedly without breaking. That's the whole reason that Browning Hi-Powers and some other older guns are still just as effective today as when they first came out decades ago. The pistol doesn't make a person a great shooter, it's the shooting skills built over hundreds of hours at the range. A good shooter can take virtually any pistol, no matter how cheap, and outshoot the average person shooting a premium priced pistol any day of the week. Also, people need to know that even if you're going to conceal carry, you don't need the smallest gun in the world. If you want small over everything else, get yourself a Derringer but good luck shooting it at ranges greater than 4 or 5 feet... Even for every day carry, you sacrifice utility by trying to carry the smallest, lightest pistol that's made. Get yourself a pistol that's big enough where you can conceal it fine but you can shoot it just as well as a service sized pistol. If you can't hit the side of a barn with your tiny pistol, you'll be better off carrying a baseball bat everywhere.
I bought my first handgun last week. It was the S&W SD9 VE. I got it with two 16 round mags for $350 after taxes. It feels nice in my hands and I can’t wait to shoot it

I really wish Ruger hadn't discontinued the P95 :/
Even against the more modern SR series, the P95 was the perfect budget semi-auto pistol.
I hear ya but those sr's are great. I'm going to be getting a sr9 soon after research and so on.
SRs are indeed good pistols, and they are better and more advanced in terms of hardware than the P95 ever has been, but...hey, people still buy 1911s for $1000+, they should be able to buy a regular DA/SA hammer-fired pistol for $300. Though the new 9E looks to be good.

its weird not seeing berry in any new vids we all miss you berry RIP.
Barry, You are sorely missed. You told us your honest opinion about guns. Very rare these days! Most people are being used by the gun companies as a spokesman. I don't know what happened to you. But no one can take your place. RIP Barry. May our Flag wave always above our country. They will never take our guns from us. Amen. Shawn
Im 99% sure he died of a heart attack, just getting older it happens. RIP to a legend.
I'm glad they gave the CZ 75 some love. I've shot them all, and the CZ was BY FAR the most comfortable gun to shoot. Very low bore axis, smooth operation and very accurate right of the box.
Agree 110% the issue is that many folks want polymer today...and many are brain washed by Glock...XD...MnP ...
The Beretta M9 should have at least been number 5.
My personal favourite is the Beretta 92FS (M9 as known by americans I believe)
Joel Salminen , M9 and 92FS are almost identicle but different
Yes sir it is
Good list. I have the shield, the SD9VE, and the Ruger p95
Do you like that SD9VE? Is it worth it?
This is beyond ironic, I turn 21 in 3 days and am looking to purchase my first handgun. I've been looking at the SD9VE and Eric says "if you're watching this 3 years from the date this video was made prices might change" and today is exactly 3 years.
Devonn Peters I'm watching it as well and I'm in market for CZ75
i bought one on blk friday!
I looked at the date when he said that too lol
Devonn Peters crazy ain't it RIP Barry
SDVE9 is a great first gun. Bought mine for under $300 brand new! Love it! I agree with the trigger kit. It's a little stiff. Otherwise it's a perfect first gun!
I sure wish I could get Barry’s reaction to these new high capacity micros like the p365 and hellcat.
Yes, I wish Barry was around. He was a fountain of very good information. Rest in peace my friend.
Really miss Barry. He was full of wisdom.
When I am off, and the weather is bad outside I like to watch the older IV8888 vids with Barry. Miss his humor and insight
I'm surprised the Springfield XDM 9MM wasn't up there. Damn good gun and for a decent price too.
xdm and xd line in general is junk that's why
+Bryson Wilkinson
Been carrying the Springfield XDS .45 every day for a year and a half. I shoot it weekly and it's reliable as hell.
Maybe yours was junk. Or perhaps operator error.
itscork Love that little gun, very compact but with a nice forceful caliber!
Just got the xds 9mm bitone 3 days ago. Beautiful design. Easy to cc.
Bryson Wilkinson Haha okay
I know this video is three years old but I used the info to buy the S & W 9mm Shield. Thanks Eric. You too Barry in Heaven.
+John Chetcuti me too. little thing is flippin awesome!
Gone but not forgotten. RIP Barry.
My 9s: SIG 229; SIG 2022; CZ 75. In the family also: Beretta 92fs; S&W 696.
Pretty sure I have some of the finest 9mm pistols the world has known.
SD9ve is a great reliable gun. One of my favorite firearms.
Well, it is 2016, so I guess we hit the three year mark right now~
Joshua Nelsen a
Thanks guys! You helped me make my mind up. I have been looking and was seeking different opinions on hadguns. I was thinking the sd9ve was probably right for me and you confirmed it.
It's not over priced yet seems to be a quality handgun for a first time buyer.
Whoa! I stumbled on this video and was like, 'Holy crap that's Iraqveteran8888!!'. Still loving your content all these years later.
I like my Beretta M9 :3 Never gonna leave my side
don't really need to own 5, I think 2 is good enough, but it's hard to stop buying 9mm handguns. LOL
Insanely hard
Its hard to stop buying guns period! lol
Kamikaze Krunch the way I look at it, whether spend my $ on firearms then crack! Or maybe firearms is my crack?
John Dominy that's so true... I told my self after buying the M92 pap I was not buying any other guns ever... a glock 29 and xd mod 2 later I'm still saying I'm not buying anything else lol..
Kamikaze Krunch there is no such thing as too many handguns!
RIP OLD MAN WITH BEARD
+Jose Lopez He wasn't old. Grey beard will do that to people.
+Jose Lopez is he dead? :O
+Ezio210 yep passed away I think it was a heart attack
762x39warrior Thats sad, rest in peace.
+Ezio210 he passed away on 4/12/2014
M and P Shield is not only sized for easy edc, it is surprisingly accurate. Good video. Good to see Mr. Barry once again.
I feel like this was more of a "5 budget minded 9mm handguns Everyone should own..."
+johnnylancenese Its maybe because 2500$ gun doesn't work any better than 500$ glock ... (I'm not Glock fan )
+MrVolodus Well, when you show "the poor man's glock" well... that is budget right there.
+Kyle Friedman The police normally choose Glock or the S&W M&P. I would pick one of those
+Robert Paulson I have both, and you cannot go wrong with either.
Totally agree, johnny
Watching 10 years later😂
I am big on the H&K offerings, perhaps a video on top 5 9mms over $750?
H&K P7 psp; spend half your life watching RUclips , carry and shoot a P7 for one day, a natural extension of your pointer finger. Use your college fund to get one if you have to,;it’ll give you better returns.
1. Browning Hi Power, 2. Beretta 92FS, 3. CZ75, 4. S&W M&P, 5. Glock 19 in that order
Watching this video december 7 2019 just around the holidays
Glock 34, Glock 19, Beretta 92fs Inox, CZ 75, Sig Sauer P228
Love my 92fs Inox!
I second on adding the Beretta
CZ75 is THE wonder 9 in my opinion.
CZ75A? Lmao
+XPWNZERX huh?
***** what's a CZ75A?
Jake Johannesen Auto variant
especially the newer cz-75 shadow
My first gun was a Ruger P95. Was rated, as you said, the most accurate out of the box polymer framed handgun during its time. I had problems with shooting cheap ammo and it would stove pipe the shell, but other than that, great firearm.
where is the Walther PPQ?????
Kaibil Balam true
I'm a revolver kind of guy. Yes, I enjoy the simple things....
Why spend 400 on a revolver when you can get a used glock for that price?
I spent $900 on my last revolver. Doubt I'll ever buy a Glock, $400 is still overpriced for a new one.
@@Mortismors not everyone is rich like you.
@@coleguitar2233 that, and for me it comes down to, you would need to reload a revolver twice to have the capacity of a 17+1 sd9ve for example.
@@Shawncsc yeah and if you want something small just get a sheild for 300 dollars.
Nice guns guys but you forgot one the best, Beretta 92 fs or the m1.,... just my input or the fnp or fns, fnx.
Great vid.
Target. on
I would also have liked to see the 92 fs or even the px4 on that table.
That will I am sure show up in the military pistol show.
Tapperlite1 The 92FS sure, but that fuckin Px4? lol, I can't believe the popularity of that fucking thing.
Wow, left Sig P226 (my P6), Browning Hi-Power (even surplus), Beretta 92FS, and CZ 75 off the list.
Thought same thing: Sig P6 (or 226) CZ75 (copy Canik55, EAA Witness, IWI Jerico), Beretta 92FS, Hi-Power, S&W 59, Ruger P85
That sd9ve my god...such a pretty gun to me
My grandad has a sd9ve with that finish, and I learned to shoot with it, a very fine firearms if I say so myself
Check out the tan version... it’s even prettier
Said no one ever
Ain't gonna jam on you
@@hurricane8634 you've obviously haven't been in the gun community
Not in any specific order.
Glock 17
Hk usp
Sig p226
Cz
Browning hi power
Springfield sub compact xd better all that
detonio jones No Sir. Anything Glock or Sig is better than Springfield
Whoa....
That CZ shark may easily be one of the most beautiful things I've seen in a while. Sleek.
Suh-leeeeeek!!
I have the Canik Tristar c-100. It's a clone of the CZ 75 Compact. At about 2/3rds the price of a CZ. I am SO glad someone turned me on to it. I had no idea Turkey made such high quality guns, and you can't beat the price. Some things are interchangeable with the CZ also, like grips, holsters, and magazines.
I am an old-timer, hammer fired guy, and want a safety on any auto-loader that does not have a true double action pull, and this Canik has a manual safety that works in all hammer positions. DOwn, half cock, and full cock. The only drawback is no de-cocker, but I can live with that just like I do with my lever guns.
Wow i want that smith and Wesson SD9 now thanks fellas for the insight.
I've had one for a while and the trigger is a smidgen heavy but it is utterly reliable and it replaced my glock 17 for a carry
lol anti gun ad on a gun video, didn't expect that
adblockplus.org It will change your life.
Jud I wish I saw that
FNP, P226, PPQ/P99, XDm, SP-01, USP, M&P etc. and you pick a "Sigma" =)???
I like your rig better than the video, agreed with you
Every gun you named on there besides the shield is about 200 buckss more than a shield,glock, or a standard XD. Ya those guns you named are great but for an average shooter those are out of the price range my friend. And its not a sigma, its the sd9 ve, it's a pretty damn good gun too if you can get yourself used to the trigger
booger bubba still you have the sr9, m&p 9, fnh, xdm and are all 50-100$ cheaper and are truelly ambi unlike the glock. or any of those guns it seems.
booger bubba Or if you don't like the trigger, get the spring kit for it and fut it in yourself.
look at the shelves full of ammo..... like gold!!!
Well I'm very happy with my glock 19 & 17
I have a Glock 19 and I'm currently holster shopping, because I'm looking for a change. Do you have any recommendations for great concealment holsters?
My favorite IWB holster is the Alien Gear. It is very comfortable and places the gun in a good place relative to my personal ...um...shape.
Diode73 can you tell me the price range and where I can find one?
+Diode73 I have a few Alien Gear Holsters. All very Nice. But i found a Holster company that IMO, makes the nicest Holsters ive ever seen, and thats Stitchdex.com
NePdXploit thanks.
No Sig Sauer guns??? Best 9mm pistols I've ever owned..
For a beginner, I believe the P250 is the best option for a myriad of reasons. Once that trigger is mastered, then its appropriate to move on to a striker gun.
actually, a novice will do better with a striker fired gun, at least with fast follow up shots. they do well with 1911`s as well but, there`s the safety issue with a 1911 that needs to be understood before you turn em loose with that gun
The Ferret sigs are crappy cheaply made plastic handguns. I might get one for a paper weight.
luke117 reviews when I hear "plastic" I think Glock so what would you prefer over an all metal, perfectly balanced P226?
The Ferret I was joking, I figured someone would rage hard. I would totally rock a sig over a glock
just bought a Glock 19 yesterday and can't wait to pick it up!
05 mustang gt Sooooo many nicer pistols out there. Especially for the price. My dad's Block 19 won't run a whole mag without a malfunction, so don't hold your breath. lol
Jamie Sloan mine runs fine. everyone’s experience is different with any gun
@@behappy5869 most people leave bad reviews on guns they dislike. My Glock 19 is my favorite handgun.
Glad to see the sd9ve on here, otherwise I wouldn't believe these are the 5 best without that model included
what, no love for the Springfield XD/XDMs, or the Sig P226? C'mon guys, how can those be excluded while guns like the P95 or SD9 get in? Especially the Sig P226! That is a major oversight to me, I'd gladly take a Sig over a Ruger, they're much better made IMO. Still like the video but feel some very important ones were omitted!
SIG Saur P226. That or the Glock 19, finest full-size 9mms ever made.
+1 for the P226.
You have my vote on the SIG as well good sir
I think the guys in the vid were concerning costs though watching it again. The SIG is pricey, but a flawless piece of work, and its got a little style. The Glock is hands down perfect and a decent cost, but totally utilitarian. A SIG P226 though would always be my first choice.
I like the P229 a little better but I completely agree. the 226 and the G19 for sure. But the Sig offerings are more than anything on the table there. Maybe the Sig will make it into their Military handgun review. Along with the 92FS/M9 which i'm surprised also wasn't mentioned. That may be why
I agree about the Sig, although I have the 228, not a 229
the Taurus p111 g2 is very under rated and it's at an amazing price
I've been carring one since the came out i love the pt 111
709 Slim too. Love it.
Nothing like a guy with a long grey beard for authority.
No Berettas?
Taurus Millenium G2 9mm for me. Field strip of a glock, awesome grip, double-stack 12rd bags, just as slim as the shield, better trigger than the Shield imho [have shot both].
Oh, and crap tons cheaper. Got mine for $260 - $50 MIR - $35 Free NRA Year Membership = $175 end cost for me.
+Josh B the G2 is great gun but i disagree about the trigger
they are cheap but not sure about that mexico gun quality
+Viet Nguyen Not made in Mexico :D. Now a days a large portion are made in Florida. Some production still occurs in Brazil though.
+Terry Goheen Oh I know plenty of people probably do. To be specific, I don't like the way they implemented a safety trigger. I prefer the glock style they used on the Taurus and of course on glocks. That hinged trigger thing drove me nuts. But that's just me.
What about the Springfield xd9?
It's cool that you covered these pistols. Seems like most youtubers love to cover 700-900 dollar pistols but to me, a pistol is a sidearm, it's a back up weapon so there's only so much it needs to do. A basic combat pistol just needs to be able to feed and fire, with basic combat range accuracy at 7 yds, and do so repeatedly without breaking. That's the whole reason that Browning Hi-Powers and some other older guns are still just as effective today as when they first came out decades ago. The pistol doesn't make a person a great shooter, it's the shooting skills built over hundreds of hours at the range. A good shooter can take virtually any pistol, no matter how cheap, and outshoot the average person shooting a premium priced pistol any day of the week. Also, people need to know that even if you're going to conceal carry, you don't need the smallest gun in the world. If you want small over everything else, get yourself a Derringer but good luck shooting it at ranges greater than 4 or 5 feet... Even for every day carry, you sacrifice utility by trying to carry the smallest, lightest pistol that's made. Get yourself a pistol that's big enough where you can conceal it fine but you can shoot it just as well as a service sized pistol. If you can't hit the side of a barn with your tiny pistol, you'll be better off carrying a baseball bat everywhere.
I bought my first handgun last week. It was the S&W SD9 VE.
I got it with two 16 round mags for $350 after taxes. It feels nice in my hands and I can’t wait to shoot it
"DUDE KEL-TEC IS THE BEST''- NO ONE EVER
Zimmerman disagrees with you
H&K....just they are so expensive...must be for a reason though hahha
I'd like to start off with saying, we still miss you Barry. Also, how did the 92fs not make the cut as a full size duty pistol?
