    I would highly recommend the Beretta APX lineup. With Beretta's special pricing, you're getting a premium firearm with great customer support at an affordable price. Most of the standard APX lineups (not the tactical version) could be found at around $300-350 max before the great toilet paper shortage. Last November I purchased the full size APX for $319 shipped and my father got the APX Centurion (compact size slide and barrel with a larger grip frame and capacity) in February at $334. You can find the APX Carry at under $300, but that's a single stack carry gun.

    Taurus G2C for $230 cant be beat! Highly recommend and also thought that last gun was pretty neat. Just picked up an M&P .22LR and it’s probably my favorite of the bunch for home/self defense as anybody can use it with ease bc of the little to no recoil and easy to load magazines.

    CANIK TP9SFx! I was glad to see it here. I just bought the Whiteout, and i DID NOT expect so much quality for what i paid for it. Easily a gun that could cost about twice as much as what i've gotten it for.
    I love the trigger on my Ruger SR9, caught it on sale for about $260
    I love my old Ruger P345 (it was mentioned, not as a budget, but you did mention in).
    A budget gun or two I'd add would be the Taurus G2c and G3. GREAT Weapons for their price points!
    I'm looking into the other weapons you listed. Thanks for the video!

    Cougar looks pretty nice. Use to own a P90 DC and carried on duty as a armed security officer. Never felt that great in my hand and wanted a ccw pistol and got out of security. Its kinda too much for cce and only paid $185 for it in 1996. It was on sale and just had to get it. Last year I sold it more then I paid for it. I try to stick with the $300 limit myself. Just picked up a LE trade in FNS-9 for $300 over a S&W M&P trade in that was going for $290. I have a all steel Canik Stingray 55C too. Very nice gun but at 36oz its rough on the hips as a ccw. Great video!

      Same. No matter how many amazing guns come out from Turkey, you'll never see me buying one. Same with Smith & Wesson and Ruger for their role in accepting more gun control during the Clinton administration as well as Springfield Armory for their recent role in doing so as well. When you're a firearms company trying to limit our 2nd amendment rights or support terrorist groups harming people, you're not getting any of my business.

    • @45AlfaCharliePapa
      @45AlfaCharliePapa  4 года назад +2

      So what brands do you buy? Because with a little research I can most likely find reasons not to buy just about any manufacture. If you do some research on Smith and Wesson you would learn that they were owned by a British engineering firm when they made the deal with the Clinton's. They so damaged the company that they had to sell it for penny's on the dollar and the new owners had nothing to do with that. As for Ruger, That was old man Bill trying to save his company due to the fact The original bills would have killed most of his best selling guns, things like the 10/22 and Mini 14 would have been illegal to own. He has been dead for decades and the company he left no longer follows those ideas of its founder. But Thanks for watching.

    The Ruger SR9 I wanted to love but the accuracy isn’t good. Tried different ammo and even saddled it to see if I was pulling it but me and my cohorts found it to have a gremlin causing two just down left from center and one or two floaters up and to the right. Way up like eight inches.
    The Tp9SFX is the best budget pistol with high end add ons you’d find in a much more expensive firearm.
    The Taurus PT111 millennium pro should’ve been on the list. Or G2 which is same thing. Thousand rounds and it’s accurate with no failures. $200 bucks new.

    • @45AlfaCharliePapa
      @45AlfaCharliePapa  4 года назад

      My son has a Taurus G2, fine little gun for the price. One of Tauruses better options and is reviewed on this channel. As for the SR 9 call Ruger. I also was not as impressed by the accuracy with my 9 and my 40 was better. I had to send it in because the spring fell off the slide release making it lock open every shot. While it was there, Ruger also addressed a flaw with the barrel that I knew nothing about. When I got it back the accuracy was very much improved and is now on of the more accurate pistols I have.

      The Ruger American sits at the high end of the budget and is on my want list but I own so many ruger firearms that I have a hard time justifying another. The G2 is also a great option and I have reviewed on on the channel but I don't own one yet. The shield is another solid option. Thanks for watching.

    I have 2 S&W revolvers and 2 S&W auto-loaders which can't make the list because of price, but, I have had no problems with the Taurus GNC 9mm which I like...but can't hit anything with🙄... and no problems with the Taurus TX22 which I love (my favorite pistol) and the two aforementioned do meet the price criteria. 👍 Good Video!!!

    To me right now the best budget gun available is the gen4 Glock 22 (pd trades) I have been ordering them from Recoil gun works 269 bucks right now they had them on sale a few months back for 250. The guns that I have got were VERY nice conditions. Palmetto state armory also has S&W m&p40’s for 269 bucks (pd trade). Those are 2 great options imo

      Frank Bonazza III there’s bad apples on every tree. Not all cops are bad. I actually work with some guys who were former cops and they are outstanding individuals. I also went to school with some guys who are cops and are good people as well. I also know some terrible cops who have went to prison or probably will some day.

    • @45AlfaCharliePapa
      @45AlfaCharliePapa  4 года назад

      They do, but they double as a safety. I prefer slide mounted controls to be de-cocker only and Smith made very few of those. The long trigger pull makes this gun safe to carry (aka New York officers carried double action only models without the safety) and the safety function is a little over kill. Thanks for watching.

    Haven't yet tried out a Canik yet but for the price of of one I think I'd rather purchase 2 Taurus G2c's. When you finally figure the trigger out, it is a very reliable, highly accurate gun. You'd still have a bit left over for a holster. 🤔. Very nice vid and all good choices. I would consider anything under $300 a budget pistol. ->I'm a self proclaimed "poor" but I enjoy learning about possible future wish list guns I may find one day withing my budget.Hope to see more vids soon. 👍

      Currently Midwest gun works has all your Stoeger cougar part needs. I do agree once those parts become no longer available the oddball Stoeger will be hard to find used parts for. As for guns like the Ruger P series and Smith and Wesson 2nd and 3rd generation guns they made Millions of them so used parts if needed should be around for awhile. Thanks for watching.
