I wonder if a colt/clone base pin would fit this to replace that funky long one?

Appreciate the info. Im trying to decide between the 2 inch or 3 inch barrel. 38

One of the best midsize DA revolvers out there. Of course it is relevant.

Never had any problems what so ever with mine and I shoot all kinds of loads. Got mine a few months ago.

Same size as a glock 26, but with 100x better ergonomics and less recoil

Magazine disconnect instantly disqualifies that gun for consideration. Backwards safety is even worse. This feature is dangerous as it is the opposite of almost all other guns. These features disqualify the gun.

Hey there Gun Guy. I've got one of them and I have really been enjoying it. I've posted a number of videos sharing my experiences with it and observations of others shooting CAS with it. Like ScottGraham said, the more you use it the quicker you will be. Deuce Stevens has some good tips which have helped me a lot. Well done video. I just subscribed to your channel. Cheers!

Be advised, you can NOT buy spare parts for this rifle. You are warned.

Looks great how much

I love how easy it is to run the security 380

Nice presentation Da. You are using your degree and it shows👍👍

My 856 UL is my every day carry gun small enough to be easily concealed and plenty of stopping power

I bought this same gun new for $279 came with really nice Altamonte walnut handle and that rubber handle was in the box. Bonus! It's a sweet shooting 38 snubby and I love it. Taurus is awesome and makes awesome firearms. Don't listen to the haters, i had a G2C 9mm with ss slide and it was as good as any M&P imo.

Vickensburg? Mean Federicksburg? Good video. Thnx

You should eject the magazine with your middle finger. Raptor claw it!

Did you do something to the gun before firing it? I have the TPR9C since 2019 and it has yet to misfire. All I did was change the sights with TruGlo Sig #8 when i first got it. I lost count of how many 9mm bullets I have fired when I reached 2000, and that was in 2021. This is the best CCW I have ever owned. Period.

This gun is on sale for 700 bucks today at Palmetto State Armory. Was really wanting one but after comments in forums and watching your video I will just stick with my Ruger gp100 match. I did have to send it to Ruger right away because the barrel was canted.I took it home anyway from my ffl because I got a killer deal(700 new).Ruger rebuilt the gun;new barrel,new hammer,new plunger.It came back beautiful but how it passed qc before I got it I will never know. ..Sucks you have to send your 686 plus deluxe back but revolvers seem to be hit or miss these days. Bought a S&W 340 pd(no key hole)and after the first 11 rounds of .357 it jammed.Jammed again on round 14 (1000 dollar gun,but that means nothing)so its got to go back to S&W...hope thier customer service is as good as Rugers. I also picked up a S&W shield plus and it has to go back because the trigger hinge pin is not all the way in. Meanwhile,out of all my AR builds,Ive only had to send back one out of spec lower..Revolvers are not made like they used to be... :(

Get your ass tore. Whatever you do, don't hit the ejector rod.

I have this same revolver. I use Lead Away. It really works great on the end of the cylinder. Hoppes is fine for cleaning. However, the burnt powder can be really stubborn. I find that the Lead away is the best for getting the hard to get powder and burn rings off. Nice video. I ordered the Ameriglo front sight. Can't wait to see how it looks on my revolver.

Looks cheesy to me!

If you oil it and do the normal break in. Then that grind would go away

I have an 856 Defender 3", stainless and black, w/G10 grips. I also have a black 856B2UL (2") w/a neoprene Hogue Monogrip. I gave my younger daughter a black 856B2 (2") steel w/a Hogue Monogrip and my grandson a stainless 856SS2UL UltraLite w/the stock grip. I put Galloway Precision spring kits in all 4 revolvers, and the trigger pulls are vastly improved. Due to sciatica, I'm currently pocket carrying a S&W Model 642-1 (1⅞") and a stainless 85S2UL (2") in my front pants pockets since I can't abide anything pressing on my hip. I can pocket carry the 856B2UL in place of either of my current carries, but the Hogue grip makes it less convenient. I've had nothing but good luck with my Taurus revolvers AND semiautomatics (2ea G3s and 1ea G2C). My normal EDC is a SIG P365X w/a Holosun EDCCARRY dot sight, 2 spare magazines, and Streamlight TLR-7SUB OWB with the 642-1 & a Speed Strip in my off-side pocket. Sciatica sucks.

The newer S&W autos have a little yellow/green lever inside the receiver to disconnect the sear, so you don't have to pull the trigger to remove the slide. (Thanks, Sig) Inserting a mag resets it. They don't want you to shoot .40 S&W in a 10 mm because the .40 cartridge headspaces off the extractor instead of the cartridge mouth.

Should be another mag inside the white part of the box. They come with 3 mags.

Did it come with an o-ring for the thread protector?

Id like to know what distances you fired at and whether it was single handed or with a support hand. Precision pistol here is 25 metre and one hand only.

I've had one of these since 2019 and have only had one failure and that was a stovepipe when my daughter-in-law was shooting it. Just to note some of the differences between your gun and mine is that the magazine is not nearly that loose, and my trigger pull is much firmer. I double checked several older reviews and the double action pull was reading about 9+ lbs with the single action pull at just under 5 lbs. This makes me think that your hammer spring is a quite a bit lighter than most. Also @RonV535 commented about the out of battery issue. At the 18:32 point in your video is the clearest view of the slide jumping into battery as the gun mis-fires then it was able to fire on the next pull. I think this in the case in all the other mis-fires. Another Gun-tuber who was testing target ammo came across some Magtech ammo (rounds that I have shot frequently with no issues) that created a similar issue. Hhis box had rounds that measured just out of specs, in fact some cases were slightly oval. Hopefully this is the case and not a bad chamber or other problems. I guess that the magazine fitment could create this problem too. I also checked the sights on my gun and they stick to a magnet so they are steel of some new plastic that is magnetic. Anyhow I love my gun and to answer you question about the quality of new guns, I think the quality of everything has been slipping for some time.

At 17:17 you do not have to pull the trigger to disassemble the pistol. Lock it open, pivot the takedown lever, reach into the port with your finger or a pen and gently push the ejector down about 45 degrees until it clicks to disengage the striker, then remove the slide. This is similar to the Shield that has a yellow wire that you push down to disengage the striker.

I got mine today in 3 inch with the black swirl grip! Love mine so far!!

Holy shit Da Gun Guy, You're literally talking through my gun buying experience. Big Respect!

It's got a 2 piece feed ramp! That's a no go for me.

Try switching brands of ammo. I had a similar issue with walther and magtech switch to federal no issues

Damn, I’ve always wanted this specific model.

just a heads up the text on the box says Fredericksburg Texas not Vickensburg

I've been trying to find one (the right deal) and as soon as you find them they sell out.

Good gun to be a buck a ro at bbq. Museum piece

Hi, I just bought a brand new 686 plus deluxe. It came with beautiful wooden grips and I haven’t had any issue. It shoots perfect, it is reliable and accurate. Since nothing is 100%, I suppose you unluckily acquired a bad one? I’m eager to see your update video once you got yours back from S&W. Thx for this honest video.

I love my P238. I generally carry a 9mm but I carry the P238 in situations where I need a smaller weapon in size.

I've had the 45/22 target for several 6and probably have 10k rounds through it. Rifling still looks new and have only had 5 or 6 misfires all from Winchester ammo. As far As accuracy I average 97 out of 100 on a 4 inch target 100 yards out regardless of the northern Arizona winds. Its more consistent than any pistol or rifle i own and except for Winchester ammo doesn't care what it uses. Ive had problem with Winchester ammo in all my calibers including my 30-30 Winchester lever guns. Good review but i think your dates are off the standard eas only produced 1 or 2 years before the mark 1 came out

NOTHING will kill Glock 😂 why do people say that?

That butt wrap is ugly. So is the lever wrap. All the Chinese made firearms I've seen are absolute junk. My '87 is a Chiappa and much higher quality.

tell you what i have LCP max AND the bodyguard 2.0 and WOW the bodyguard for sure! delivers! awsome everything! nice slim looks awsome and you can usually get a full grip on it. all i say is you want to carry a 380?? carry a bodyguard 2.0 and dont trust your life with any Ruger gun!

Lose the political jokes.

Does it come in 40 caliber??

Wow, I never knew. I have two, I’ll need to check the numbers. Thanks for the information. Aloha 🤙🏽

Love this pistol. Bought one back in 2015/16. Unfortunately here in Hawaii we are limited to just a 10 round magazine. Dumb, I know, at least it’s not as bad as some other places. Aloha 🤙🏽

Loved my first SR22 so much I bought a second. First is all black, second has a silver slide. Have had them for many years now. Awesome! And Aloha 🤙🏽

I have the UL 856. Bought it as my first CCW. It is snappy, but more u train w/it more u get comfortable with it. It's light and when u carry it it doesn't pull down your pants and underwear. Lol. I recommend it to all CCW people. Plus, it's VERY affordable, and it does wear n tare easy but it gets the job done. Take it every where I go.

Bersa tpr9 CL is beautiful
