My yard gun is a Taurus G2C. While not a quality Smith, it's never failed me and goes bang every time so far no matter what the dirty, scuffed up condition. Get's cleaned and oiled when I think the grass clippings, dirt, and sweat get a bit too much. Great Channel. Thanks
If it runs then it runs, can't complain there. I definitely recommend a nice m&p into your collection though, the quality really is there. Actually try a performance center too, the porting really changes how it performs compared to any other micro 9 out there.
Jerry, I‘be been a S&W M&P only owner for the past 15 years ( however please forgive me on my transgressions on several Heritage Arms .22s ). I have never had a miss feed/jam/oops in any of my full size or Shields that I have carried in all conditions, and I’m sorry to say sometimes in longer than stupidly dirty conditions than you should be allowed. That said, I’m thankful for all the tips and tricks of the trade that you provide. I will subject each and every carry arm I own to a serious cleansing this week. I appreciate all you do, keep doing what you do….
Mitchell borrowed my shield to show to a customer to fill a big order. He said those M&Ps are the carry guns to have. Funny to me that you’re carrying one too.
I haven't shot USPSA in a couple years, but I ran the same 5 M&P 40 mags with TTI +5 basepads and Wolff springs for 3 years and many thousands of rounds with ZERO mag related failures.
They can’t. If Jerry and Paul tried to occupy the same video, it would create a critical mass. You’d either end up with a singularity, or a hypernova of badassery that would create 2a babies all over the US.
I have a question about rechambering a round over n' over again. Is there a maximum number of times we should be rechambering a round? Or as long as the round keeps it's O.A.L. it good to keep rechambering? I've had a few rounds that after they were rechambered a few times the projectile gets seated deeper into the case, I gave those rounds to my local pew pew store. Other rounds seem more resistant to seating themselves deeper after multiple rechamberings. I'd love some advice on this subject. Appreciate.
You have to be as ready as possible in all conditions whether it's environmental around you or your physicial condition at the moment you need to respond "as fast and accurately" as possible. Sometimes sights are good enough sometimes a laser is better. You can certainly see the dot better than with sights in poorly lit areas, whether inside or outside, you may encounter. When The Sun 🌞 begins to Set, The Perpetrators begin to Rise. When they're under that Dot they can be Shot. 😊
Hi Jerry, could you recommend when to change internal springs and recoil spring for a competition gun? I would say it has close to 2000 rounds and maybe 1500-2000 trigger presses in dry fire. Thank you for your time sir 🙏
It should take way more rounds than that to fatigue a recoil spring, and dry fire shouldn’t cause any significant fatigue to any of the springs in your pistol. Different people have different recommendations but 5-10,000 rounds is a pretty typical replacement interval from what I’ve read and that’s probably overkill.
That would be about 4 K on the recoil spring alone ,some makers give the maintenance schedule in the owners manual, Custom parts maybe more or less depending. On my Micro 9 the book says 5-7 K for the recoil and 15-20 K for the main and of course by then the others also.
Sir what do you think about the Walther CCP in 9mm, I love carrying mine and it shoots reliably and accurate in my hands, just wondering if you have had your hands on one?
Same philosophy here, minus the ultrasonic and plus 4 months. That ammunition, even with cannelure, does suffer slight bullet setback with repeated chambering. Best to test cycle the carry mag at the range, rinse and repeat.
I too am a brush cutter with a tractor. I carry a handgun capable of taking a deer when working our ranch. I have had good luck with the 45AR/ACP in that regard, less luck with a 357 Magnum, I have no trust that a 9mm would be a good choice for that. The reasons govt choses their cartridges have almost no relevance for me.
I never understood this idea of letting your gun build up a bunch of dirt for a month or longer. Personally I clean my gun every week or two, and make sure no rust or anything is forming on it. To be fair I was living in a place that was extremely hot so sweat was a real issue for me. but the idea of betting your life on something and then letting it get dirty is completely foreign to me. I want my carry gun at 100% all the time.
If you shake it more than 2 times you're just playing with it. Adverse conditions are a real thing and my carry piece must prove it can operate there before EDC.
That`s really a good idea as dust bunnies can mess your day up and for those who are not professional shooters it keeps the user familiarized with the firearm especially if your one to rotate EDC. Also I find that pistols like a small drop of oil on the slide every couple of weeks as they tend to dry up carrying them around next your body.
@@pieman12345678987654 His family has a lot of firearms that the Police might take a little too much of a liking too.

When Jerry is gracious enough to share....I certainly pay attention.
Six years on a set of mags for competition and practice… can you imagine how many rounds those have fed? Amazing
Thank you. I'm a M&P man. Didn't know the striker was easy removable. Will be cleaning it next time.
More great tips! Thanks Jerry. Have a great day! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Jerry, be honest; you don't have a weak hand.
Ill take it as a good sign that I carry the exact same defensive ammo as Jerry himself.
Always the best information 👊🏻
Always good Mr M. Thanks for your work and producing quality information that's also entertaining.

Really good Pro tip on disengaging the striker
Reminds me I've been meaning to clean my gun for a month now. I wipe the outside off plenty but it is past time to do the insides.
Great information! Thanks for sharing. 👍
Don’t forget to show some love to those magazines too. I took my EDC mag apart recently and it had more lint than my dryer screen
Thanks, Jerry!
Hello Jerry
Very nice gun
Thanks for the tips 💪🏼👍🏼
Great gun!
Great tip about function testing with the weak hand

Thanks again Jerry. (I’d ditch the background music altogether).
Nice carry sir. Thats why i carry m&P9 m2.0 really awesome.
I would love to see a collaboration between Jerry Miculek and Paul Harrell.
They can’t. If Jerry and Paul tried to occupy the same video, it would create a critical mass. You’d either end up with a singularity, or a hypernova of badassery that would create 2a babies all over the US.
Mr Miculek, im happy to say that we carry the same pistol and use the same defense ammo. Thank you for reassuring me that i made the right decision.
Nice Sound Advice
My shield jams occasionally with Hornady critical defense but I've never had any trouble with any of the other ammo I've used.
He’s using Critical Duty 135g +p.
Critical Defense is 115g.
Good stuff sir
i feel bad for the guy that messes with jerry
Ironically my spare mags rust where only the corners of my slide have rust
He has almost enough keys to be a school janitor.
Good stuff.
Teasing with that gen 3 on the table.
What kind of cleaner do you use in your sonic cleaner?
Muy bueno tu vídeo saludos desde Argentina
What fluid do use in the sonic cleaner that you put the gun in

Good question. I use 5 rechamber rule, as my carry ammo (same as video) suffers slight setback around 10. They get used at the range.
@@PBVader Good data.
Thank you.
There was just 2 vids this last week on Y.T. devoted to that subject.
@@gunfisher4661 Paul Harrell did a good one a while back.
Walls n shelves covered with 18K rounds of who knows ammo. Life is good.
Hi Jerry darren here from vancouver love you brother freedom
Is that the compact or sub compact?
What kind of laser is that
Jerry Miculek for President. ✌️
👍
👍👌😊!
Would have been nice to see how and what you used to clean and lube.👀
I cycle my carry ammo out yearly, strip clean/oil every 6 months
Jerry Looks Like Your Getting Low on Ammo .... 🤨
Fast shooter,,fast cleaner….
Practice all aspects of "Shootin Sports" !!
Why does the fasted shot in the world use a LASER pointer?
You have to be as ready as possible in all conditions whether it's environmental around you or your physicial condition at the moment you need to respond "as fast and accurately" as possible.
Sometimes sights are good enough sometimes a laser is better. You can certainly see the dot better than with sights in poorly lit areas, whether inside or outside, you may encounter.

Because that's not really Jerry, it's his doppleganger
Probably does it blind folded 🙈
Always a pleasure watching your videos. Never owned an M&P yet but I may just have to get one now
Bump
Thanks for the tips, I picked up a Taurus g3 a week ago and so far it's working like a champ 👍👍👍👍👍
I am trying to email Jerry with a question about full brass cased 12 gauge in a jm pro 930 or 940
Does anyone know how his contact info..?
An now I know what you know 😏
Thanks Jerry.👍 I usually use an empty mag to rechamber the same round too.
I prefer the ballistic method of EDC maintenance. 100rds/wk is usually enough to shake the lint out.
I've found that smith and Wesson m&p line will allow limp writing while Glock will not. M&p much more reliable in my opinion and findings
S & W probably engineered them to be that way.

Have you ever used foreign made guns other than Glock.
Jerry, do you still use Lucas Oil products?
I'll clean my handgun, rifle, shotgun using comparable steps through the light oiling. Then I'll pop a cap or two for function test.
❤️🤍💙

It’s because it meets their gel penetration tests. I use critical duty 45acp which also meets their gel requirements

You shouldn't show pictures or video clips of your keys as they can be copied fairly easily by people with the right knowledge and tools.
