Looking at the table you are 100% correct! There are hundreds of cars, models, makes etc.... its what works for you, gives you reliability, performs well and fits your budget..... great video Bro... keep going.
Love my Masada Slim. It really is the best for the buck IMO. I like the FN but it’s $200 more. Plus the quality and reliability of IWI is very well known.
The Masada Slim is a great pistol in that class..... reasonably priced and shoots great. I recently stacked it up against the FN Reflex and the Slim smoked it. The FN had sight issues from the factory and it's already been back to FN once and since receiving it back it still has accuracy issues. Masada slim for the win with me also.
Thanks man!! Another great vid!! Ive been on the bubble for a micro nine, and have had option paralysis thinking just go with the g43x, and maybe still should, but maybe not. You're point is valid: the arrow doesn't matter as much as the archer. Thanks again!
You've just earned a new sub with this video. I like how practical your approach is to comparisons, and especially your end thoughts. I've owned and/or have shot most of these guns, but keep going back to CZ P10 series for daily carry, and S2 for competition. Many gun owners don't shoot their guns enough to really know how well they can perform on demand with any particular gun. Most problems I see are people trying to shoot smaller guns with a tiny grip too small for their hands which doesn't give enough real estate for offhand palm to connect and control recoil. The micro 9s may feel great in the hand / at the gun store, but in reality unless you have tiny elf-like hands they are too small for most people. I do like that the Masada Slim isn't so tiny that an average adult can still get a decent solid grip on it.
A huge Springfield Armory fan... Hellcat and Hellcat Pro for me. I wanted to like the IWI Masada, but they missed the mark by not including a rail. I am the opposite about the LOK Grip on the GX4... in my opinion the brass backstrap did make a difference for me, and despite the costs was worth it. Good comparisons... nice collection.
I’m not gonna lie your gun selection is crazy I absolutely love the size of your firearms they all perfect size in my opinion I just love the option to pocket carry idk I guess it’s just me 😂😂😂
Good job! All good choices, really liked the IWI, and I like the shootabilty with most all of them. For me it came down to grip length and carryability, I carry IWB at 4o'clock. I like the P365XL, mine has been malfunction free over 1000 rounds.
I don't add a bayonet to my pistol, so I have no use for a rail on my guns. I like the simpler look of non-railed pistols. I even removed the rail on my S&W M&P 2.0 Compact9... lt looks much cleaner. This IWI Masada Slim will be my next purchase.
How would you compare this to a g43x? Been tempted to get a Masada but it’s about the same size as a g43x, granted it holds 3 more rounds. Size wise they seem about the same
Nice vid bro. I chose the FN reflex as my micro 9. I had the gx4 but gave it to my pop. I loved the hell cat in hand and the reflex but i had to choose 1. I chose the FN
The Masada Slim is Not a Micro Compact, size wise it is in between a Compact like the Glock 19 and true Sub-Compacts such as the Glock 26 and S&W MP 2.0 Sub-Compact. IMO the best size comparison is with the Glock 43X
@@settleschris1965 As I am unfamiliar with the size of the P365XL I did not include it in my comment about size comparison. I have at my local gun store held the Masada & Glock 43X for a side by side comparison when I was at one time considering buying one or the other but have not purchased either of them (at least for now)
Would you say the slim is noticeable slimmer in the grip? I have a pro and have printing issues with the grip. I think because it’s squarish. My thinking is the slims rounded thinner grip would solve my issue. If not, I’ll probably just get the standard hellcat.
There might be hundreds of pistols out there, but I'm looking for an accurate, lightweight, durable, micro 9 compact pistol sized like the Sig P365 that can go thousands of rounds without any malfunctions that has a great trigger, sights, & grip. The Sig has only OK sights, but none of the rest. My PC Shield Plus with a 4" ported barrel comes closest but gives plenty of stovepipe malfunctions & because of how the red dot sits over the breech face & open peephole the lens foggs up only after a few rounds fired. No matter how much you polish Glocks trigger & change the connector it will never come close to the Shield Plus's amazing trigger. So I'll keep watching & hoping some company will produce a great pistol. If S&W could change the location of the Red Dot to the back of the slide this would be the perfect pistol, as long as you could get rid of the numerous stovepipe malfunctions it has. Until then, my P365 & P365XL know the route back to Sig, as they've traveled it many times.
Yes, they sent me a new guide rod. I’ve already matched round counts and it’s good so far, keeping my fingers crossed and testing more before carrying. Respect
I've been carrying my 48MOS the past three weeks while waiting for my 26 to come back with the slide milled and the Holosun red dot installed. Hopefully this week I can get back to normal EDC. I must say though that my 48 is easy to carry.
@@user-zh6ec7fk1w Yes, most of the new stuff allows this. But, Lefties need a slide release on the strong hand side. I found a Canik MC9 that has an excellent slide release and it's Accurate!
I'm gonna make an admission, Mr. Soft Hands (I have small hands, I understand the self consciousness, lol...ehhhh....reality....) Anyways, I...I don't have any hate for you....but....I wanna make an admission. I've never tried a 40SW caliber. I've been a 380 and a 9mm guy for the most part, but....what do you think? I'm asking you, because you like the little guys like I like, but they do get snappy, so I'm trying to ask someone who knows his stuff. Do you think I should even worry about it if I'm planning anything smaller than a compact maybe, and which one? I was thinking an MP.
Or....there are a bunch of cool accessories out there that you probably don't think much of since you see them all the time, but others don't know they exist, like maybe the Hogue grips or the backplates...try out different kinds of pocket holsters with different kinds of micros and tell us which type of pants they work best with. Heh, I'll shut up.
For content? I'd like to see some of them get fired maybe, maybe even like a go pro type camera on your head (keep up the theme), but focus on 1 or 2 of the ones you have, and show them off. You don't need to be a Paul Harrell and make a fist sized group at a football field, lol. I'd rather see what a more regular guy could do. Oh, I don't wanna be the idiot trying to tell you how to do your channel, I just think you're a cool guy and wouldn't mind seeing more of ya. Maybe...I think you get nervous a little...you're an interesting guy, you know your stuff, people are going to send hate no matter what you do or say because you're in the 2A world. It's everywhere on the internet, but it's really really here. There are people who don't even shoot that will pretend to, just to leave a negative comment and try to throw you off. Ohhhhhhhh, I know something I'd really like to see....you know some of the after market extended magazines they have out there, like the 10 round for the LCP? Do they work well?
IWI firearms are notoriously well built and extremely reliable. The Israelis don’t mess around with their weapons.
Well i broke mine
@@crewduba5946 well I guess they aren’t perfect. Better go buy a Chinese weapon then ..:)
@@crewduba5946what happened? I'm in the market for one.
@ericbeech2652 broken striker after 1500 rds. I sold it. IWI was cool and fixed under warranty though.

The Masada Slim accepts CZ 75 magazines. So you can have a 19 round reload if you want.
how does it fit? is there a big, awkward space past the mag well?
IWI , Shield Plus, Glock 43, Ruger Max 9 , Ruger Compact 9 and G3C Taurus are what I am familiar with and are great pistols.
The Masada Slim is a great pistol in that class..... reasonably priced and shoots great. I recently stacked it up against the FN Reflex and the Slim smoked it.

great pistol I love mine
Thank you for this video. This video covered a great amount of specific content, for me. I appreciate your time to your hobby.
Hi. From Israel.Ill have to check it out
Thanks.
In a true self defense encounter at 1-3 feet, 1-3 shots in 1-3 seconds & you are shitting yourself, that wall and poundage ain’t gonna matter.
Keep posting your my favorite fire arm channel
Great pistol, but it is very hard to find it in gun shops
Dude, has it ever occurred to you that you have too many guns? 😂
SPN Firearms aka "Guns Akimbo" aka "30 guns 1 cup" aka "Uploads Everyday." All jokes aside glad you tried the Masada Slim out.
How would you compare this to a g43x? Been tempted to get a Masada but it’s about the same size as a g43x, granted it holds 3 more rounds. Size wise they seem about the same
So far I am shooting the slim better than my 365, Gx4, mc9sc, and my Canik mc9.

What holster do u use
Which pistol has the most similar slide compared to the masada s?
The masada slim can actually run mags from the Jericho 941 plus cz75 mags

Ordered the fn 509 bundle 5 mags.... and da fn reflex
That is a nice pistol I would like to get there AR 15 also
And the Masada S also can use CZ 75 mags my CZ Shadow mags works 22 rounds
Nice table!
I like Shield Plus a lot the CZ P10 is quite a gun. Sig 365XL rocks. I just bought a Slim haven't shot it yet tell you more soon.
I’d love to hear feedback between P365 and Masada Slim on triggers, accuracy and ergonomics.

As a left handed shooter, it's sad that so many modern pistols don't have don't have a left hand slide release and mag button...
You can switch the side of the mag release in the slim

Anything's better than a hellcat . what a junk. sig 365X is the best compact bar none.
What’s your Hellcat experience? All I hear is endless raving about its accuracy as if it’s the Ferrari of compact pistols.
What? Hellcat is my best and most reliable pistol.
