...but why does the trigger not wiggle on other lever actions?

Thank you so much for your kind words!!

LOL, so I guess the real question is: Where are you sitting?🤣

Which part did you have difficulty understanding?

Danke Schoen!!

The PDP-F is a great gun, but it is NOT a Q4SF....kinda like my Casio is a great watch, but it is not a Rolex.

Danke Schein 😎

Danke Schein!!

I'll be delivering it back to them tomorrow...if I can stop myself from buying it😎. Thanks for the comment.

The only downside was that they were not cut for optics...otherwise it is a cool collector's set.

I am glad you're enjoying your 1854. I am very happy with mine as well. I have not noticed any rust, and I agree that you should expect a stainless steel gun to be more rust resistant. I will check mine carefully. Thank you for the heads up.

@DrTac I do live at the coast so some more salt in the air for me than others but yeah definitely keep it oiled when it's stored

@DrTac also think it's just a ss coating not ss thru and thru

Yes you can put a mpx upper on the copperhead k lower ive read about multiple people doing this

@@iwetardid78 definitely going to try it now. Thanks!

@@dj80365 the problem is finding the upper lol idk how east they arebto get good luck though

Glad you enjoyed the video. Interestingly, a good friend of mine reported that the ammo worked fine in his CZ Czechmate. On a separate note, I’ve been told that Staccato is now aware of the issue and are making changes.

The Kimber K6XS and the Ruger LCRX are both 38s.

I actually had the same thought, but I spoke with others that have had the same problems, especially with Caniks and CZ's, so I don't think it's a one batch issue. I'm glad you enjoyed the video,.

So, I have a experience with both and I would have to say that the King Cobra pales in comparison to the K6S, based on their primary purpose; to be the smallest 6 shot 357 for deep concealment/pocket carry. While both are undeniably great guns, the Kimber is considerably smaller and has a better trigger (I can say this because I have spent a lot of time shooting them side by side). As for fit, finish, and ergonomics...I'd give it to the kimber, but damn the Colt is beautiful. Hold them side-by-side and tell me I'm wrong😉. Thank you for your comment, I think you may have inspired me to do a Colt Vs Kimber Video!! ...that is once I fix the G-d Damned grip on my Kimber😎

@@DrTac Hmmm... You may be right; I've never actually physically compared the two - hands-on. I only have a .38 Special Colt Cobra - so I can't speak specifically for the King Cobra. But the standard Cobra has a better grip for me; a larger sized grip that increases the trigger distance (reach) better than any of the other small framed revolvers out there on the market - which is better for my larger hands... The Kimbers have a much smaller grip (at least stock) - and I've heard that they don't have many aftermarket options. I've never really liked their blocky looks either - but that's just aesthetics. Is the trigger on the Kimbers realistically better?... I'm unsure - but the Cobra has a very short pull and flat-faced trigger, which makes it very accurate. It's sight picture - with it's red fiber optic front sight - also aides in it's accuracy... In fact, it's most likely the most accurate 2" barrel revolver I own. The only downside to it's trigger is it's weaker reset (unlike with a S&W, for example) - but this is something that can be mitigated through practice. The fit and finish IS better with the Kimbers though; I'll admit that... Their build quality is probably the best on the market. And some people don't really like the unusual bead-blasted finish of the Cobra (unlike with the King Cobra), but I don't mind it; I think it's designed for carry and to cut down on glare. I personally don't view the Cobras as pocket carries though; I think they're more designed for IWB carry - as they're a little larger and heavier. Yeah, so they both have their upsides and downsides, in my view... And yes, an in-depth comparison would probably be a good idea. 😏 Have a good day then.

Actually, the price is one thing that I did not ding them for. Remember, this is not your typical range ammo, this is match-grade ammo, and compared to other match-grade ammo out there, I found them to be very reasonably and competitively priced...that is, if it allows your gun to cycle😉.

Thank you, Doctor... another excellent informative vid! I wonder if you've considered using a caliper to measure a box or two of all individual rounds for spec and consistency... and also whether: 1) the mags were loaded optimally with a tap to the mag side to line them up uniformly; 2) mag spring tensions are within high-end spec; 3) shell casings at the crimp are all perfectly round, full diameter; 4) feed ramps could benefit from a polish? Another thought: date stamp and production run numbers on boxes can sometimes help a manufacturer identify faulty materials, machinery, worker procedure, etc. Please keep us posted!

Thank you. I'm sure this is just hiccup, since the product is new...now that they are aware of the problem, I'm sure it will be corrected in short order.

That holster is made by "Rogue Apparatus," but before you rush to get one, I am working on a comprehensive holster mini-series. I no I'm not supposed to leak content,...but I would recommend "Falco" or "Wright Leather Works," as their leather that is against your skin, rides up higher, protecting you better from sharp parts like the hammer or beaver tail. I do not receive any compensation from them (although they have sent me products for review), but in the discussion section of this video should be discount codes for both compznies, The Rogue Apparatus one is pretty though. Please let me know what you decide to go with and what you think of it,

Thank you for getting me!!

You know it, brother!!

Hey, a Tacticalologist has to eat, right?!!

Oh it was, and I did😎

I use very high powered lasers on a day to day basis and actually lecture on advanced surgical techniques utilizing diode, CO2, ND:Yag, Er:YAG, YSGG:Yag, and Cr:Yag lasers internationally...you're not wrong...the optimal part is: Don't let the columnated light get in your eye. Thank you so much for sharing the safety tip... ...Conversely, if you ever find yourself in a defensive shooting situation, don't worry about hitting your assailant in the eyes with the laser or a JHP!! ;D

LOL!! Great comment!!

I too am a Glock fan boy...but a realistic fan boy...yes, gen 5 Glocks make great carry guns, but there is no way any knowledgeable gun person can agree that they outperform all others. I respect your enthusiasm and emotion, but I think you may have gotten a bit over excited with this hyperbolic comment. All that said, you are right, in that Glocks are great guns.

Definitely untrue. The CZ Scorpion K...which is the comparable model to the Sig Copperhead series, has been incredibly problematic and unreliable. Having experienced the problems 1st hand (see following video link), I can also attest to the fact that dealing with CZ Customer Care was a nightmare compared to dealing with Sig's Customer Care....and just to be clear, I am a big CZ fan, and have featured multiple CZ firearms in videos, but I would be remiss not to share the bad as well. Having experience with both guns, I would take the Sig Copperhead K all day long over the CZ Scorpion K. The Scorpion's only advantage is that it is considerably less expensive. th-cam.com/video/noA_le_XH7U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=O1hJt-BxFN2B0rwT

@@DrTac much appreciated, Dr! I really need the feedback because i’m in PCC dilemma land - I could get a scorpion for about 650 now but would need to add as much as that in what I deem essential upgrades and I really value reliability. Truth be told I also prefer metal guns (love my SP-01 as an example) so I will take a good look at your channel - which I just happened to discover today! Thanks again I do appreciate you taking the time to write back.

Thank you for your comment. It all comes down to which metals were used, and how dense they were.

I'm okay with the grip on the K6xs, it's the K6s that I'm having the issue with. I'm on the hunt for a solution...I'll post it when I find it.

@@DrTac Thank you!!!!!

That's awful. I will be on the lookout for thosse problems and I will definitely report them if I run into them. Thank you for sharing.

LOL, thanks for the super helpful comment.

Interestingly, while the K6XS is almost a 1/2 pound lighter than the K6S, it is actually longer, taller, and wider than the K6S (with the 2" barrel, obviously)...in other words, the K6XS is actually larger than the K6S in every dimension, but it carries nicely because it's lighter. I will look into the Hogue Bantum grip, thank you for the recommendation.

@@DrTac You have the Hogue Bantum grips Doc, it came oem on the K6XS just swap it out onto the K6S to determine if you like it on that gun.

I aim to please😉

@@DrTac Mission accomplished 😎

I wouldn’t buy a Kimber k6xs lol had to return mine twice to get it fixed . Sold it and don’t regret it

I feel you, brother. I strongly recommend that you drag yourself in for a check up...but if you're not gonna take my dental advice, at least hear me out on my gun opinions😎

I cannot tell you how much your comment just made my day!!😎

Thank you.

Boy, if I only had a nickel for each time someone told me that about my "piece of equipment!!"😉

It is NOT pinned and welded...they use Rocksett,

It was an honor having you on the show!!

Thank you for the kind words. Unfortunately, I can't spare my Stoger, as I'm currently using it as a shim under a slightly too short table leg.
