“Placed 2nd to the Beretta”, not quite. The US Military made the right call when it comes to being responsible with taxpayer money, and the M9 is more reliable than people give it credit for, but if you look at the results of the trial you’ll find the SIG won the trial, but not the contract.
Maybe his glock is modified? People sometimes ruin their glocks by modifying them. Also maybe it malfunction more because its gen 4. I think Gen 3 is most proven generation. There is competition shooter that ran over 300k rounds with his gen 3 g17 and only changed the main spring. Gun works just fine.
I always prefer hammer action over striker fire . I got the g17 g2c p226 and the mk23 I have no problem with the Glock or the 226 the mk23 is my favorite tho
You didn't notice a difference because the bore axis debate is total fudlore. Look up Active Self Protection's video on bore axis. He shows with real metrics how bore axis makes no difference.
@@JefferyAHoward To be fair, ounces matter in some contexts. Polymer guns certainly have their merits. That being said I prefer metal frame guns too. I’m personally willing to carry the extra weight.
Glock gun's are much better and less money Sig guns are over Price and magazines are hard to find and over price just about every gun store has Glock guns and magazines 🇦🇹💯👍
You almost never see USPSA competition shooters with a Classic P Series . They are clunky and slow . Good enough for a duty gun or IDPA . You see a lot more P320’s , CZ’s and Glocks. My P229 has the ergonomics of a coke can , but the Glock isn’t much better . For 1/2 the price , the Glock is as durable as, as reliable and much easier to disassemble and reassemble. I love CZ’s and can’t sell my Coke can P229 even thought it is now relegated to fun shooting . I EDC a G19 and P-01.
You’re only sort of right. They temporary approved the usage of the Glock as their standard issue sidearm. First of all that doesn’t mean that they all switched to the Glock. They can still use whatever they want at that level. It also doesn’t mean they had to use one over the other. It’s unlikely that they would just throw all their mk25’s away and I’m sure a lot of seals had a close bond with that weapon considering it’s history and capabilities. I’m sure a lot of them used both and that it was just mission dependent. That being said, the Glock was only temporary. They’ve already switched their standard issue sidearm to the sig m17. Again, that doesn’t mean they all use the m17. But it’s what they are issued. I’m sure they use all three of them. But it’s clearly pretty likely that the overwhelming majority of them are using sigs not glocks.
Is this a serious comment...? Do you think all plastics are the same? The Glock's polymer frame is very durable and rigid. They can stand up to more punishment than many guns that are all steel. Theres a reason why the Glock was chosen over other companies like SIG, HK, Beretta, etc during the pistol competition for the Austrian military during 1982. Even the SEALs have replaced their beloved SIG P226 for the Glock 19. You can still have your preference, everybody's different and thats okay but don't act like its some cheap plastic. It may feel like a toy but the polymer is very tough and resilient.
@@MinecraftGuy237 you realize other people choosing the glock does not matter right? The average person is a sheep NPC. You’re going nowhere in life if decide on what other people choose. The 226 has way better recoil. And most seals did not switch to the 19BTW. So yeah cope harder and KY* NPC SHEEP
I have Glock 17 (duty weapon/personal), 19, 26 & 43. I have Sig Sauer P220.
I love my SIG. Its very accurate. Its now my EDC.
Hammer vs striker fired! All metal or polymer? Sig or Glock? Easy for me Sig! The P226 is a fantastic firearm.

The sig is more reliable. Have the p220 in the infantry and our mp has the glock 17 gen 4. The sig tends to have less malfunctions.

Not in most people's experience.
Love my Sig 220 from the first shot I almost teared up it runs so smoooooth.
It's a smoooooooth operator
Excellent video. Gun video makers should study how you did this...short and to the point, informative and entertaining. Great job!
Spend some time with the p226. You'll understand!
I always prefer hammer action over striker fire . I got the g17 g2c p226 and the mk23 I have no problem with the Glock or the 226 the mk23 is my favorite tho
P226 all the way! All the things you mentioned.
I didn't get what you mean by "when I get to vegas I'll pick up the 225 or 226"--does'nt your local gun store sell them-or are they cheaper in vegas?
Love my P226 .40 s&w. Decock and go.

Everyone complaining about how “heavy” steel guns are. Do you polymer guys need another tampon??
Huge thumbs up for saying that! It is only a few more ounces, and yet some people act like it is a an extra concrete block.
Not to mention it’s not a steel gun 😂
@@heeebeeegeeebeee the slide is stainless steel, but the frame isn’t. Regardless it’s not a heavy gun. People act like you’re holding a brick.

Say it louder for the weak micro 9 obsessed sissies in the back
Nothing wrong with Glocks as I have a 26 gen 5. But the Sig 226 is just a better more refined pistol.
Seals used the Mk25 variant of the 226

I dont get all the glock hate, i own both and would trust either with my life

I think the conclusion here is that you need to work on your shooting . Thanks for the review !
The NAVY SEALS changed to the GLOCK though!!... HOWEVER this is the only gun that I would compare to a GLOCK
That's because the dollar has problems. Glock is cheaper.
You’re only sort of right.

How can you compare a steel masterpiece of a gun with a cheap plastic piece of Tupperware? Really?
I was thinking the same thing

@@MinecraftGuy237 was more so replaced bc of price than the 19 actually being a better firearm
I really love SIG p226 but there is no real benefit to it over Glock. Glock can support full auto even
The correct answer is both.
Love dogs. Glocks are blocks.
Glock Glock and then Glock. …in that order.
I'll keep the plastic in my kitchen for my left overs... P226 over Glock any day
About a year ago I was in the market for a fullsize. Thank god I bought a CZ SP01 instead of the P226. That thing is soo ugly 🤢
