You've become my favorite gun reviewer on the tube. Love the style of your videos, just enough shooting without being boring, great table top reviews, nice audio and video, and super nice camera work from Mrs. Honest. Keep up the good work!
To summarize. You're fun to watch, and down to earth. Mix that with incredible shooting and it's a winner sir. I am just getting into guns. Even with 14 years in the Navy it just never struck me. Having hippy parents might have something to do with that. I'm a black sheep though. Conservative and 2A all the way!! Eyeballing a CZ Shadow 2 for my next purchase.
You're an outstanding shooter, bro. And, you seem like a pretty down to earth personality. I wish more you tubers were like you. Keep up the good work!
Well, its not like he hasn't shot a couple million of rounds at the same targets. I would think he would be a good shot at those same steel targets, he could probably hit @ 50% of those targets with a mop bucket over his head. And this fascinations with the 9mm is really silly! I mean if the FBI or the Military went with a single shot 17cal pellet pistol everyone on the planet would be carrying one! Really think about it, its silly. Whatever the military or FBI does (carried) its an Ol' My GOD I must have this is bull Shit! At best the only good thing about the military and the 9mm or the 223 is military surplus ammo, but who in the hell would would to actually own or shoot it for real? I would own the garage! Now I have some 9mm gun, and on an off sense the 70's I've had other and to DATE I've never shot military hardball garbage ammo! At best I have collected (many years ago) some fired military 308 brass for hunting. I'm sorry but yes the 9mm will kill a human but all the talk about recoil problems in the real world of personal self defense & the 9mm is a joke! In these video's he talks as though he's addressing the average person but everything in action is based on COOL tactical stuff, sort of like a movie hero. How about bringing this down to real world. The average person for self defense can't walk outside & fire a 1,000 rds a day of free ammo with free guns.
@@mwv8408 Well for one, there is science behind it. I can send you two articles written by an Dr. that talks about what he sees regularly dealing with gunshot wounds.
Shoot the same shots a million times from the same position and same distances you tend to get good at it. Not downing him he shoots good just looses the impressive feeling after the 50000 round
Impressive at the least! Wish I could shoot half that good! I need a 50 round drum and lots of cover if I ever have to get in a gunfight! I'd be better off to carry a shotgun! Would be a little hard to hide it though!🤠
Just subscribed and have to say , your style of reviewing is by far my favorite. Several of the handguns on your list are on my wish list. I do think that, for a sub $500 pistol, the Canik TP9SFX deserves an honorable mention though. Mine has functioned flawlessly for over 4000 rounds, great accuracy, very comfortable recoil, and a fantastic trigger.
I had a rival that didn’t run past 9 rounds, FTF issues FTE issues. I ejected the rounds it didn’t want to fire in my 43X and bang. Got rid of it quick.
Just got off work, eating bacon cheeseburger and watching gun vids, living my best life. EDIT: Just checked this comment after a year and apparently some of you think I feast upon deep-fried butter on a daily basis 😂
I worked at the CZ Custom Shop in Mesa Arizona 5 years ago building the original shadows. Those CZ are pretty awesome guns! Its cool to see these models getting some love. I was able to build my CZ PCR EDC into a wicked custom with a sick trigger!!! Your shooting has greatly improved since you started this channel, looking good Brotha!
You’re my favorite reviewer by far and I NEED to see you review a Grand Power X-Calibur before I die haha. I would wager it would rank somewhere between the two CZ’s on this list for you. That company has changed the way I look at out of the box triggers and how good they can be.
I like how the backgrounds were constantly changing. Usually there was an open field, then there was snow on the ground, then a full field of corn, and then boom! night time. Nice video. Impressive shooting as well.
Great video! I always look forward to your reviews. They are the perfect mix for me - length, easy to take in information and quality video :) plus you shoot like a baws lol
I recently purchased the Canik TP-9 SFX 9mm . The factory trigger is amazing . Shot almost perfect right out of case . For the price and all accessories that are included it is one of my favorites .
Extremely well made video. I appreciate the balance of a subjective view and simply presenting the facts of each pistol. It is refreshing to find a video that is not an advertisement for the industry leaders. DANG !! This cat can shoot !! My pals and I regularly shoot handguns at 100+ yards so I know full well what is required to do this. A very well done list that i give TWO thumbs up 👍👍
I think another important aspect of why the 2011 is a great choice is because of its ability to shoot 9mm major allowing you to score higher in some matches
The P10F is a solid choice, I've put around 2000 through mine and love it, haven't had any failures/malfunctions of any sort and it's trigger surprised the hell out of me, for a striker fired gun it sure has a nice clean break and reset. I hit a silhouette at 75 yards with the first round I ever put through it, followed by three more hits, it's very accurate as well. I'm now in the market for a Shadow 2 despite recently getting an SP-01 Competition, CZ is really starting to grow on me and I'm deathly afraid that addiction is going to take over my life...
@@oddballgunman5288 I've been drooling over the Czechmate lately and can technically afford it, but I'm not so sure about dropping almost $4k on a pistol lol. I'm also more seriously considering the TSO or TS2, maybe the racing green even but we'll see. I like the Shadow 2 but I don't mind dropping a little more cash for what the TS line brings, now that I've spent some time looking at all the offerings. Either way CZ makes a badass lineup. I've spent a lot more time with my SP-01 Competition I just got, and after some trigger work I've got the pull down to about 2 pounds with _zero_ creep, I'm happy enough with that thing now. Not that I'll be able resist buying more lol, buying the SP-01 was probably akin to taking a second, larger dose of meth🤣, you're hooked on the first one but the second one seals the deal lol.
Man, I like that you don't just talk about useless crap in the beginning like most RUclipsrs. SO many times I've stopped watching videos because they NEVER get to the point. Fully informational all the way. Outstanding. "Give him one!"
Cz 75 sp 01 with cajun gun works ..my favorite range gun ..shoots like no other ..glad cz wasnt my first pistol ..I would've been very disappointed with majority of the others
I love your videos man! I also live in Iowa, any time I need some schooling or just shopping around for my next gun. I check your videos out every single time. You're the man!
Your videos really rocks. I never get bored watching them because of your shooting accuracy and speed it’s something else. The balance of video, audio and content are first class. Blessings
Thanks for your video. I read a comment either on this video or another about your shooting skill and it saying it is impressive is an understatement. I’m tempted to buy my second handgun but know that I likely should instead invest in more training. Keep up the good work.
Great video! Completely agree with ur list. I'm glad u put the Type B in there. I really love that pistol. I can't wait to see how u customize ur P10F. Ur P10C is awesome.
I think I enjoy your videos almost more then any other channel. I can wait to watch other videos but I have to watch yours as soon as I can. Seems like we would get along great. And if I can ever get ahead on bills I'm gonna join your patron.
I need a review showing how the gun shoots. I don't care what it looks like in the box. I don't care if there's a trigger lock in the box. I need to see what the gun will do. Thank you Honest Outlaw. Sincerely.
I really enjoy your channel....Thank you! I completely agree with your #1 and #2 as they are mine as well. A couple others that might have made my list are the Sig P210 target, P226 X-Five & P226 X-Six.
Great video. I believe that the 2011s should be in a class of their own; perhaps you could do a top 5 of the 2011 pistols to see who is the champ when cost is not a factor. IMHO these are like super cars and can’t really be considered regular production pistols. I would love to see your best shooting pistols for compacts and a separate top 5 for sub-compacts. You are hands down the best firearms reviewer on RUclips and I would never purchase a firearm until you give it a thumbs up.
About as awesome to watch as a firearm video can be. Love the choices and watching you shoot pistols as fast and lethal as this group was is worth the price of admission all it's own. Cheers ...
Damnit, you keep previewing incredible guns. In one of your videos, you cameo'd the Atlas Hyperion, and then I had to have it. Watching your videos is getting too expensive.
i hate the ergonomics of a 1911, but when a friend let me use his 2011, I was shooting the bullseye at 5-10yards without a sweat. Crazy accuracy with undeniable results
@@KyranSparda Well I'm not that fond of revolvers, but with that said single action triggers are simply better for shooting with less horizontal movements!
Love the video and your presentation. I'm subscribing because of what I saw in this one. Even though I'm an H&K guy, and I'm disappointed not to see the USP on this list, I'm still very impressed.
My personal top 5 from my collection are 1:2011 (atlas nemesis, staccato XC, 2019 staccato P, and Springfield Prodigy) in that order 2: Tanfoglio Limited Xtreme 3: Shadow 2 4: Walther Q5 Match Steel 5: Canik Rival-S Tanfoglio and Shadow 2 are visually very similar considering the Tanfoglio started as a CZ clone. They are different though. I prefer the trigger on the Tanfoglio. The most bang for the buck of any gun I’ve ever purchased has got to be the Rivals without a doubt though. To be in my top 5 9mm handguns I own actually disgusts me at the amount of money I’ve spent on pistols it outshoots for a much cheaper price. I did technically get my Atlas for $2500 though. Traded a 1998 Z71 for it that I had $2500 in.
Another terrific video and yep... I think your list is spot on... I'm a long time 1911 guy who's turned into a Glock shooter.. but you can bet there will be a CZP10f living here very shortly.. Your one of my top three gun channels.. awesome content, great shooting, and no bullshit , honest reviews and opinions.. life is good..! Cheers my friend and thanks for doing what your doing
I have the p10c with threaded Barrel, I use for 3gun so far so good in reliability. And installed a nice trigger and steel guide rod. Can’t beat the cz for the money.
I think one of your honorable mentions should have been the Canik TP9 SFx. Mine was $490, which is a huge bargain, for what you get. My trigger pulls at slightly under 4lbs, and the reset is amazing. It also comes with blacked out rear Warren Tactical, and a thin post fiber optic front sight. Also comes with two 20-round mags, and 4 optic ready slide plates. The match grade barrel also makes it extremely accurate. There are some other goodies that come inside of the nice plastic carry case, too. The grip is my only complaint, but nothing that a few strategically placed strips of Talon grip tape can't fix. This pistol is among the easiest to shoot pistols on the market, and perfect for someone that can't afford the Walther Q5 Match. I personally think it's BETTER than the Glock 34. I LOVE MY CANIK!!!
3 Percent Mick my favorite gun as well. I did all the mods Frank the Tank recommended and she’s a machine. Haven’t shot the shadow2 but hear she’s a beast as well.
I am unsure if these would all qualify as production pistols, but here are my 5 favorites in the order I enjoy them the most Sti DVC Limited CZ TSO Sig Sauer X Five Supermatch CZ Shadow 2 Sig Sauer P210 For those who like revolver S&W 686 Competitor Thank you honest outlaw for great videos, instructive reviews and inspiring shooting.
Ya know, if you build one piece by piece, you can make them pretty cost effective. Then, you'll have purpose built 2011 at a much smaller portion of the cost.
It is so cool to live in America. The guns you got there is enough to make want to immigrate. I love pistols but may not have more than two. So I own Glock 22 and Smith & Wesson M20 40. Love them both. Keep up the good work, I will watch for sure.
@@John-nd7il In the latest terrorist country called South Africa, Cape Town. I am considering emigrating, but maybe too old to do so. Still love pistols and thank full that I still use them on the range.
Great pistol choices, exactly what I would've picked. I've never heard of the Archon type B though!! I'm bout to research up on them. Great video once again. Your 2011 is nasty AsF btw
I have a SDI 2011 DVC*3 and I totally agree with most of what you have said about it, but I also have a CZ SP01 Shadow Target 2 which I believe at least in my opinion is as good or better and in my experience more reliable and a way less expensive choice, and it has the absolute best trigger I have ever experienced in any hand gun, I have shot international competition on the US Navy Pistol team and am an NRA Instructor, with Distinguished Rifle and Master Pistol classifications. I also agree with you that the CZ Shadow 2 is my absolute favorite pistol to shoot.
Great video, as always! You might be my favorite subscription on RUclips. Would love to see this same list but for guns under a certain amount ($600? $700?)
i have an EDC X9 and it is an amazing gun as well. Great feel, great weight, great trigger and it eats everything. That being said . . . perfect choice on the STI/Staccato position. They are by far my handgun of choice. i have many and they all are fun and incredible to shoot. Try the old school Omni if you can get your hands on one. Unbelievable.
I think spots 1 & 2 could be either CZ or 1911 depending on what you like. 1911 and CZ single action triggers can be very similar, and if you look at the grip of the CZ it's actually similar to the 1911 when the grip safety is pressed. The tradeoff of both is that the CZ is more reliable, the 1911 more customizable, also the CZ is cheaper and easier to maintain. Making a reliable 1911 is very hard to do.
High end 1911’s tend not to be reliable due to extreme machining tolerances. If you run a middle of the road one they are pretty good. Kimber, Colt etc. Stay away from the Wilson and Ed Brown stuff if you want reliability over accuracy and flash.
My first pistol i bought was a springfield armory 1911 mil-spec model. Cost me 750. I have had it for 8 years now and have had no problems with it. Tolerances are nice but not super tight and it is just an even, fun, good looking pistol.
Whoever is shooting that pistols or pistols he’s totally out there he’s an expert I don’t think I watch the video he even missed the target unbelievable nice shooting buddy
Yeah I’m a 15 year old uspsa shooter, I shoot a Glock 17, but it’s by no means the best. I just like it but I hate the Glock people that think they are the best guns out there.
Really glad you gave the Stryk B another chance. I picked one up a few months back and its become one of my favorite shooters - thats inclusive of an STI Costa Comp.
I have shot so many of these, but my SIG 226 just fits my hand better than any other pistol. The groupings confirm this when I shoot anything else. Guns are supremely personal, so I will not try to claim my choice should be yours, but I have 2 1911s, a 45 and a 10mm, a 229, 226, 220, 365, and a few ruger .22s for plinking. I always reach for the 226 when heading to the range. The 365 is my cc, and I train with the rest situationally.
Great video man. Always enjoy your opinions on handguns. I’m finally getting my hands on a p10c🇺🇸 I’m live in California. Yeah I know it sucks on the handgun roster. Great shooting like always.
I am surprised that you didn't mention of the TP9 SFX. It might not be number one or two but I think it easily beats some of the mentioned guns with its fantastic trigger and accuracy. I personally haven't had a single failure in thousands of rounds (ok, I went easy on the gun while breaking it in). Anyway that's my 2 cents. Keep up the good work.
Even though I haven't shot all these pistols, you made great choices. Low, mid and upper price range, nice work. A couple guys down the comment section saying Glocktards are jumping off bridges cause they didn't make it in the line up, lmao, MEDIC!!
Welp its in the list. Its basically a Shadow 2 with a larger mag well, flat trigger, and upgrade options for the IPSC Standard division. The TS, and Shadow 2 are killing it in European IPSC, pretty much 80% of shooters use these two in Production, Prod Optics and Standard.

So glad to see you're not glock, glock glock. I've owned one glock, g20, sold it because it was unreliable junk, replaced it with the sig p220 in 10mm. I'm a big fan of the CZ s also, have several including CGW upgraded. Should also shoot the Steyr pistols, very fast shooting, accurate, with low muzzle flip.
Love the list, completely agree with #1! Have you tried an STI Omni? Hands down the best gun I own and have ever shot. It’s a BEAST!!! Literally stopped picking my Limited to shoot the Omni every time out.
this is an awesome shooting video, that guy is unbelievable . Glad you gave mention to the Browning Hi Power I have one of the early ones and I believe it is the best shooting handgun I own.

APX Beretta is a hell of a polymer gun. My shadow2 is my favorite also
I would have put the Beretta LTT Elite as my honorable mention.
Yep I have an APX and it’s a great well thought out firearm
I like the Sig 320X5 and the VP9 with the 5" upgraded slide , for the buck .
Great list and always enjoying watching you shoot. Damn good marksman!
After watching toy shoot the Shadow 2 so much I had to get one! Ordered and can’t wait to get it in hand.
Great video. I believe that the 2011s should be in a class of their own; perhaps you could do a top 5 of the 2011 pistols to see who is the champ when cost is not a factor. IMHO these are like super cars and can’t really be considered regular production pistols. I would love to see your best shooting pistols for compacts and a separate top 5 for sub-compacts. You are hands down the best firearms reviewer on RUclips and I would never purchase a firearm until you give it a thumbs up.
Some nights when I’m anxious and can’t sleep, I’ll put on some Outlaw or Hickok. The accurate plinking is so satisfying. Thanks brotha
"Grabbed my phone instead of a mag" That was priceless, lol.
About as awesome to watch as a firearm video can be. Love the choices and watching you shoot pistols as fast and lethal as this group was is worth the price of admission all it's own. Cheers ...
I stick with Berettas their by far my favorite firearms For life no doubt about it😊😊😊😊😊.
Damnit, you keep previewing incredible guns. In one of your videos, you cameo'd the Atlas Hyperion, and then I had to have it. Watching your videos is getting too expensive.
Ok! Here's my top 5!
1. 1911
2. 1911
3. 19.... Yeah I'm biased, but I love single action triggers!
i hate the ergonomics of a 1911, but when a friend let me use his 2011, I was shooting the bullseye at 5-10yards without a sweat. Crazy accuracy with undeniable results
@@VathayYaing
I have not had the pleasure of handling the 2011 yet.
But I guess you won't pick Colt SAA right?😆
@@KyranSparda
Well I'm not that fond of revolvers, but with that said single action triggers are simply better for shooting with less horizontal movements!
You’re one hell of a shooter ! Amazing and great reviews 👍
Loving your content. Keep up all the great work my friend😎
Love the video and your presentation. I'm subscribing because of what I saw in this one. Even though I'm an H&K guy, and I'm disappointed not to see the USP on this list, I'm still very impressed.
Grabbed my phone instead of a mag... hate it when that happens. Excellent video as usual.
My personal top 5 from my collection are
1:2011 (atlas nemesis, staccato XC, 2019 staccato P, and Springfield Prodigy) in that order
2: Tanfoglio Limited Xtreme
3: Shadow 2
4: Walther Q5 Match Steel
5: Canik Rival-S
Tanfoglio and Shadow 2 are visually very similar considering the Tanfoglio started as a CZ clone. They are different though. I prefer the trigger on the Tanfoglio. The most bang for the buck of any gun I’ve ever purchased has got to be the Rivals without a doubt though. To be in my top 5 9mm handguns I own actually disgusts me at the amount of money I’ve spent on pistols it outshoots for a much cheaper price. I did technically get my Atlas for $2500 though. Traded a 1998 Z71 for it that I had $2500 in.
You are so good !!! My hat off to you !!! From a FORMER .....
1) VET
2) P M C and also 3 )WEAPONS

REGARDS , CHEERS !!!
🇦🇺👍
Another terrific video and yep... I think your list is spot on... I'm a long time 1911 guy who's turned into a Glock shooter.. but you can bet there will be a CZP10f living here very shortly.. Your one of my top three gun channels.. awesome content, great shooting, and no bullshit , honest reviews and opinions.. life is good..! Cheers my friend and thanks for doing what your doing
I wish I could step out in my back yard n do that
I could.....
ONCE
I can step out in my backyard and shoot all I want and have for many years I would be lying if I said I could shoot like this dude
Same as me have to drive 75 miles to my camping spot to shoot , If I tried that in my back yard police would be here in know time.
There's talk of a neighborhood going in beside my property so I'm counting my blessings as for now.
@@jimmybare3026 I now have a house right behind me .
I like your taste in guns and really appreciate all your reviews!
I have the p10c with threaded Barrel, I use for 3gun so far so good in reliability. And installed a nice trigger and steel guide rod. Can’t beat the cz for the money.
Best shooter ever! Excellent review, detailed but not boring at all-thanks
Love my Shadow 2. I haven’t shot a P10 F. Would really like to see how it compares to my Q5.
Love your very honest reviews--and down-to-Earth personality.
It would be interesting to hear where the CZ 75 Tactical Sport stacks up against these other pistols.
I honestly like this guy. He’s always on point
I think one of your honorable mentions should have been the Canik TP9 SFx. Mine was $490, which is a huge bargain, for what you get. My trigger pulls at slightly under 4lbs, and the reset is amazing. It also comes with blacked out rear Warren Tactical, and a thin post fiber optic front sight. Also comes with two 20-round mags, and 4 optic ready slide plates. The match grade barrel also makes it extremely accurate. There are some other goodies that come inside of the nice plastic carry case, too. The grip is my only complaint, but nothing that a few strategically placed strips of Talon grip tape can't fix. This pistol is among the easiest to shoot pistols on the market, and perfect for someone that can't afford the Walther Q5 Match. I personally think it's BETTER than the Glock 34. I LOVE MY CANIK!!!
HAVE ONE ALSO, OUTSTANDING PISTOL!!
This has really become one of my favorite gun channels. I wouldn’t mind seeing a video on that Zev OZ9
Overall I agree. I'd say the TP9SFX could be a solid 5 or at least honorable mention too.
3 Percent Mick my favorite gun as well. I did all the mods Frank the Tank recommended and she’s a machine. Haven’t shot the shadow2 but hear she’s a beast as well.
@@snipervision1 the shadow 2 could also be number one as well.
I totally agree, I said the same thing then I just found your comment. I own one and it’s really excellent in its own right but especially for the $
@@alexcarrimeyers6098 exactly right
I am unsure if these would all qualify as production pistols, but here are my 5 favorites in the order I enjoy them the most
Sti DVC Limited
CZ TSO
Sig Sauer X Five Supermatch
CZ Shadow 2
Sig Sauer P210
For those who like revolver S&W 686 Competitor
Thank you honest outlaw for great videos, instructive reviews and inspiring shooting.
I agree with everything but the 2011 is o much experience for my budget i still have CZ shadow 2 , and I’m the most happy guy in the world !!!
Ya know, if you build one piece by piece, you can make them pretty cost effective. Then, you'll have purpose built 2011 at a much smaller portion of the cost.
It is so cool to live in America. The guns you got there is enough to make want to immigrate. I love pistols but may not have more than two. So I own Glock 22 and Smith & Wesson M20 40. Love them both. Keep up the good work, I will watch for sure.
Gideon Joubert where do you live? If you do move don't go to ny or ca. Speaking from experience
@@John-nd7il In the latest terrorist country called South Africa, Cape Town. I am considering emigrating, but maybe too old to do so. Still love pistols and thank full that I still use them on the range.
Great pistol choices, exactly what I would've picked. I've never heard of the Archon type B though!! I'm bout to research up on them. Great video once again. Your 2011 is nasty AsF btw
I have a SDI 2011 DVC*3 and I totally agree with most of what you have said about it, but I also have a CZ SP01 Shadow Target 2 which I believe at least in my opinion is as good or better and in my experience more reliable and a way less expensive choice, and it has the absolute best trigger I have ever experienced in any hand gun, I have shot international competition on the US Navy Pistol team and am an NRA Instructor, with Distinguished Rifle and Master Pistol classifications. I also agree with you that the CZ Shadow 2 is my absolute favorite pistol to shoot.
Great video, as always! You might be my favorite subscription on RUclips. Would love to see this same list but for guns under a certain amount ($600? $700?)
Dude be grateful you have such an awesome gun range closest neighbor miles away. Hell Yeah Hoorah, Semper Fi carry on
Agree the weight of the 1911 2011 works in its favor for recoil
i have an EDC X9 and it is an amazing gun as well. Great feel, great weight, great trigger and it eats everything. That being said . . . perfect choice on the STI/Staccato position. They are by far my handgun of choice. i have many and they all are fun and incredible to shoot. Try the old school Omni if you can get your hands on one. Unbelievable.
I think spots 1 & 2 could be either CZ or 1911 depending on what you like. 1911 and CZ single action triggers can be very similar, and if you look at the grip of the CZ it's actually similar to the 1911 when the grip safety is pressed. The tradeoff of both is that the CZ is more reliable, the 1911 more customizable, also the CZ is cheaper and easier to maintain. Making a reliable 1911 is very hard to do.
Made in Venice , FL. Check them out; www.fusionfirearms.com/
High end 1911’s tend not to be reliable due to extreme machining tolerances. If you run a middle of the road one they are pretty good. Kimber, Colt etc. Stay away from the Wilson and Ed Brown stuff if you want reliability over accuracy and flash.
Chuck Beef Nighthawk’s have unbelievable reliability. Check out the video Garand Thumb did on the Enforcer 1911.
@@ChuckBeefOG Don't forget Dan Wesson. Probably the best "middle of the road" 1911 available.
My first pistol i bought was a springfield armory 1911 mil-spec model. Cost me 750. I have had it for 8 years now and have had no problems with it. Tolerances are nice but not super tight and it is just an even, fun, good looking pistol.
Oh man, how I love pistol videos! Awesome!
CZ S2 listed. Did not expect it to be here - even though I kinda waited to see it cuz being a big CZ fan.
Shadow 2 is a sexy looking pistol, as soon as I the mega millions. I will buy one.
one of the best channels on you tube
Whoever is shooting that pistols or pistols he’s totally out there he’s an expert I don’t think I watch the video he even missed the target unbelievable nice shooting buddy
Love your work man! Keep up the good work
THIS IS WHY IM AN ALL KIND OF GUN GUY. Glock or sig aren’t always the best.
people refuse to do any research and go to the most known brands
HK all day baby
Yeah I’m a 15 year old uspsa shooter, I shoot a Glock 17, but it’s by no means the best. I just like it but I hate the Glock people that think they are the best guns out there.
@@zackolander5568 is your Glock 17 modified, stock or has a APEX trigger?
gutadin5 when I was still using it it had a stock trigger. Now I’m shooting a Springfield.
Really glad you gave the Stryk B another chance. I picked one up a few months back and its become one of my favorite shooters - thats inclusive of an STI Costa Comp.
Wow the #5 cz p10f. Looks identical to my canik they came out a few years before. Never had a problem with mine, and has identical controls.
I have shot so many of these, but my SIG 226 just fits my hand better than any other pistol. The groupings confirm this when I shoot anything else. Guns are supremely personal, so I will not try to claim my choice should be yours, but I have 2 1911s, a 45 and a 10mm, a 229, 226, 220, 365, and a few ruger .22s for plinking. I always reach for the 226 when heading to the range. The 365 is my cc, and I train with the rest situationally.
Wtf, I can’t even afford Pinnacle Golf balls, but I can afford a CZ75 and that’s all that really matters 🇺🇸🥂🖕
MERICA BABY !!!!🤘🇺🇸🏴☠️☠
I shoot a CZ 75 better than any other pistol
I wish I was you lot.
Golf is for douchebags anyway.
@@ChuckBeefOG so is thinking you need 50 guns to be a man
Great video man. Always enjoy your opinions on handguns. I’m finally getting my hands on a p10c🇺🇸 I’m live in California. Yeah I know it sucks on the handgun roster. Great shooting like always.
I am surprised that you didn't mention of the TP9 SFX. It might not be number one or two but I think it easily beats some of the mentioned guns with its fantastic trigger and accuracy. I personally haven't had a single failure in thousands of rounds (ok, I went easy on the gun while breaking it in). Anyway that's my 2 cents. Keep up the good work.
2011 Staccato P and C.. best shooting and fastest pistols I have ever put lead down range with... the sights are INSANE GOOD.. ZEROED!
Even though I haven't shot all these pistols, you made great choices. Low, mid and upper price range, nice work.
A couple guys down the comment section saying Glocktards are jumping off bridges cause they didn't make it in
the line up, lmao, MEDIC!!
Awesome video, I have both the Shadow 2 and STI DVC Open... so relieved of your choices
Cz 75 TS Orange is the best for me.
same here. absolutely nothing touches my CZ TS
Welp its in the list. Its basically a Shadow 2 with a larger mag well, flat trigger, and upgrade options for the IPSC Standard division. The TS, and Shadow 2 are killing it in European IPSC, pretty much 80% of shooters use these two in Production, Prod Optics and Standard.
very informative., helped me choose a pistol for self defense. thanks
Love my CZ SP01 Shadow!
Hey my frnd .......grt video!!....😀👍🏾👍🏾👏🏾..
Appreciate ur professionalism as a gun handler!! As a observer....u motivate a person to want to be the best u can be!!...👌🏾.....Bro keep up the good 👍🏾👍🏾🖐🏾
Thanks for the video Brother! I don't know what's going on with RUclips? Haven't been getting my notifications??? Just got this one! Anyway, Stay Safe Brother and GOD Bless you and your family!🙏🇺🇸
Awesome video Sir. Living the CZ Life !!!!!!!!!!!
At this point you should do top 5 non-shooting pistols 😜 love ur videos
So glad to see you're not glock, glock glock. I've owned one glock, g20, sold it because it was unreliable junk, replaced it with the sig p220 in 10mm. I'm a big fan of the CZ s also, have several including CGW upgraded. Should also shoot the Steyr pistols, very fast shooting, accurate, with low muzzle flip.
Love the list, completely agree with #1! Have you tried an STI Omni? Hands down the best gun I own and have ever shot. It’s a BEAST!!! Literally stopped picking my Limited to shoot the Omni every time out.
this is an awesome shooting video, that guy is unbelievable . Glad you gave mention to the Browning Hi Power I have one of the early ones and I believe it is the best shooting handgun I own.
