Watching your vid here is kind of funny to me heh. I saw their 2025 TAC Comp tease from last year and drooled in desire. I couldn't wait so I bought their EDC model and had a custom threaded + ported barrel + comp made. And I also bought the compact grip and put it on my "EDC Compact Comp" 😂 It's like Bul paid attention to what people want lol
that's exactly what happened. When they opened up the compact grip for sale they sold a lot of them and a lot of people were putting it on their EDCs. So they said "hey - we can just do this from the factory"
@@lunasdawghaus6339 on the IS store, the gen 2 (better) Compact grip has been sold out a month or 2. The Gen 1 Compact (still not bad) is available. I imagine the gen2 compacts are being reserved for their own EDC Compact sales
BUL should offer their Bullesteros tungsten magwell as an aftermarket option for all of the other guns. And maybe toolless tungsten guide rods. Weight matters. Also, the new Blaze has the updated frame style, the 2024 Radical has the new red dot mount but still the older frame. Could they release an updated Radical with the new frame and also the even lighter slide with the Blaze cuts for even less recoil? In USPSA limited optics you have an extra ounce or two from the red dot and mount on the slide anyways. An updated Radical with the tungsten upgrade parts would absolutely dominate the new Limited Optics division. No size and weight limits, slide cuts allowed, just no comp/brake.
I have a number of Buls, including the AIR and their EDC, Axe Tomahawk, SAS UR, and Tac Pro. They are bitchslapping the competition and doing it at great prices. A TAC Pro Full comp for $2800? Awesome.
@joshuabaker5712 i got lucky! I'm hoping that Bul is still up there not too many people have herd of Bul unless you huge gun guy i have my fingers crossed
they're nice, but they need to fill out their business offerings a bit: for example, they make magwell extensions for every gun they make, except the Axe series. The design of the compact version is has a very sharp end to the grip and you hang up there quite a bit. They need to support their polymer line with accessories!
I'm sure these are good and someday I may have a chance to find out. My experience wasn't good. I bought the EDC and had to send back in 3 days due to hammer falling without the grip safety being depressed. They sent me a warranty RMA and I sent it back to them. I hope it gets resolved. Thanks and enjoy the show.
they are making moves to up US supply. Several of the launches - like the TAC Comp are coming to the US first. We didn't get the Blaze first because Bul was working with IPSC to adopt Limited Optics as a provisional division - which it did recently.
I really appreciate your efforts! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How can I transfer them to Binance?
I am waiting for Bul to make a 1911 style pocket pistol in 9mm with a 2.9 to 3.1inch barrel, 8 or 10 or even 12 round mags, no grip safety, Bul plastic grips or G10 grips, tritium front sight/ Novak style blacked out rear sight & if possible a small under barrel picatinny rail . Make it in 2 versions - one with & one without optic ready milled slide.
Edit: I very rarely alter my posts, apart from constant spelling error adjustments. However, people seem to think I'm taking shots at the company. I will amend my statement so that i am being painfully obvious. Bul is an incredible company for coming forward and being brave enough to announce this change. It shows that the company is willing to listen and grow. Brand loyalty is a major cause for a lot of the lousy products released. Bul doesn't make excuses. They make improvements. They don't rely on reputation. Let that sink in. Original post: Are those grip safety deletes? Please tell me Bul youre going to sell them as individual parts? The old safeties were absolutely not fantastic. Mine came apart after 400 rounds, and i had to replace it.
I have a few Buls, all of the ambi safeties are fine and a total pain in the rear to get off the gun for the first time. I suspect my sample size is bigger than yours - you probably got a marginal set of safeties.
Their safetys are pretty damn good. I ran a BUL SAS for about a year in USPSA and being a Lefty I put a lot of force on the weaker side. Never broke. Actually that gun pretty much ran perfect right out the box.
@TheHumbleMarksman With respect, you seem like a solid guy, and I like your channel quite a bit. However. I doubt the number either of us own is relevant to the issue, unless you own many dozens. I'm actually a little shocked that you used this to support your statement, because it is a weak argument. The off-hand side on mine was looser than Diddy's moral standards, and was fixed for 30 bucks and 5 minutes with a file. It remains a relevant statement both personally and in the overall. I use my one highly (and still very) trusted Bul as a carry and bedside gun. On the grand scale, my statement is further supported by the companies acknowledgment via your very own public announcement that it is changing its materials and methods. Now, this is not a dig on MIM. You are right that it was probably an exception to the rule, but one that warranted addressing nonetheless. They chose to go with a different method of metallurgy for their solution. Either way, my statement stands that their safeties were absolutely not fine, and my statement remains valid.
@joshuabaker5712 Your point of reference is much more valid, but let me pose to you a counterpoint. My Bul is an aluminum Tac. At this point, last year's model. It sounds like yours is an even older model. How much older is yours than mine? There weren't a lot of complaints before this last run, right? They change things constantly to make customers happy. Did they perhaps try a different alloy or another way to produce them, and then it didn't work out? For sure, I don't know, as I'm not a Bul employee, nor am I a metallurgist. This isn't egg on Bul's face or anything, I love these guys. Even more so when they tackle problems and are so open and honest about it. Honestly, other companies should take notice. This is exactly why they get and will continue to receive my scarce and hard earned dollars in the future. Let them cook.
I have 7 SASII platform guns. Not statistically significant - but about 7x more valid than your bad experience with one set of safeties. Through competing I have come in contact with other guys guns that more than doubles that number. Ridicule my statement as not being data but revisit your assertion first with the same scrutiny
BUL makes fine weapons for a much better price tag than every comparable company. Since they always sell out immediately, they should focus on more production rather than more options for now. They're amazing and not running out of willing buyers anytime soon. For the next generation they should consider an external extractor. It's simply better. And while i absolutely stand by my oppinion that BUL makes the best 2011-ish magazines with the best shoulder geometry for high capacity, long term they should look at making a wide but only 9mm length magazine rather than .45 length. Work with Mec-Gar or take their metal Glock mag. Also, if they can't do DLC coating in Israel, maybe consider shipping at least some of the guns unfinished into the US and DLC coat them here. ArmorLube and others are doing great work here. Some people would absolutely pay for a factory DLC options. Heck, they are removing the existing good finish just to have the excellent DLC put on there.
Bul is getting their legs underneath them - they expanded their plant and have been upping their #s shipped. I think this year will be an even better year for supply. Will it be enough to close the gap to where demand is? Let's hope so but I'm not sure.
Unsubbed. Sorry man but you should have a 2nd channel you post this junk to. That's what everyone else does. Otherwise your forcing this down our throats. 30 vids we have no interest in. I'll unsub for a few weeks and try to remember to resub. You and tactical advisor are the only ones still posting on your main channel. Both of you get an unsub for a week.
They tested a lot of configurations on ports when they were coming out - this they felt was the best configuration. I saw photos of several barrel configurations during development of their V ports. They tested configuration of ports and size of ports.
That comp port 😍
As much as I love my Tac Pro 5” I definitely must have the Tac comp as well.
I love them all! Ben is one of the coolest guys in the business.
This guy doing this short focused videos is fantastic
Good luck trying to get anything Bull armory!!!
I need to stop watching vids from shot show. I don’t think my wife’s credit card can take much more.
😂 Sure it can and remember she wouldn't make the same considerations for your card!
😂😂😂😂
Agreed
That why I got mine a second one
😂😂😂
I hope BUL makes it easier to purchase, I have not been able to find any of theirs in stock for the last few months.

Their 2011s are never in stock so i couldn't care less
Finally! My most anticipated gun for the year!! Got the Tac Pro based on your rec... But I really wanted the Comp the entire time 😂
Been patiently waiting on your Shot content! Excellent stuff as usual!! 👍👍👍
David - great coverage. Sharing the important points.
Spike looks amazing 😂
More great stuff!!
was saving for a tac pro 5, will definitely consider waiting for the tac comp
I'm a big 2011 guy and have been mulling over getting a Staccato XC for a while. If I go that route, I'll almost certainly spring for the Tac Comp
Get the XC before this .
BUL should offer their Bullesteros tungsten magwell as an aftermarket option for all of the other guns. And maybe toolless tungsten guide rods. Weight matters.

And for open division, the Tac Comp could use the same treatment as well.
you can buy the tungsten magwells for any of the guns now - it's pricy but you can do it.
I have a number of Buls, including the AIR and their EDC, Axe Tomahawk, SAS UR, and Tac Pro. They are bitchslapping the competition and doing it at great prices. A TAC Pro Full comp for $2800? Awesome.
That Tac Comp in stainless!!!! 2 tone
Great job! imho…Much prefer to hear you talk intelligently about the pistols and updates/upgrades vs. their marketing guys.
Bul has everything 😍
Are they going to up production for the U.S. market, so they can be purchased?
That tac comp is 🥵
I want every single Model!
Accepting Donations!!!😂
I started to buy a Bul , but.....a Sphinx was sitting next to it , so I snagged the Sphinx, if it's still there in a week I'm gonna go back for it
Man that's a damn good gun store. Wish we had one near me around metro Detroit.

A detailed BA review would be cool, maybe with some range footage. Love their stuff!
That Tac Comp is the model I'd love to eventually work my way up to.
That gun looks so badass. I'm hesitant to buy anything from this company because the warranty is only one year.
Stainless 🤤
I'm sure these are good and someday I may have a chance to find out. My experience wasn't good.

Hop you get by the fusion firearm booth.
Could you do the review of the ported version of the ultralight?
Any words on ultralight pro comp
That limited optics gun is very nice. Ill probably snag one of those.
Finally made it boys
Long live the Bul hegemony!!
May as well have some threads protruding from the comp, so you can have ALL the muzzle accessories. A bayonette lug may be too much.
You are the best and always my first stop.
Is Bul going to finally have sufficient guns so common mortals can buy one??
they are making moves to up US supply. Several of the launches - like the TAC Comp are coming to the US first. We didn't get the Blaze first because Bul was working with IPSC to adopt Limited Optics as a provisional division - which it did recently.
Booth request: EAA for the Girsan Witness 2311 Match X. Hopefully a good pistol. A XC most people can afford
Are the prices going up?
They make such great guns for relatively reasonable $ for what you get
They sure make some nice looking pewstolas. Eventually we too will get some hands-on experience for our viewers ! One day...one day... 😂
Enjoyable quick review. Glad you're doing the hard work! Hahahahaha 😁
I would wait in line overnight to get the Tac Comp
Who is doing holsters for the Tomahawk Axe FS
I don't like glossy stainless but that one looks nice and matte like the Kimber Eclipses.
It’s matte
Lighting was trash so camera settings were used to lighten it up and it looks that way - it’s matte
I wonder if porting an XC would be beneficial?
God damnit I just bought one finally it came two days ago now I want a stainless one
Have they added to or upgraded the AXE guns in any way?
Bul should offer a standalone aluminum replacement grip.
Hey Ben, can i send my black TAC model back to you guys to have made into the silver model?
haha THM knows his shlt so well that he had the bul rep step back and take a lunch break lol
I know I'd love ported and compensated guns but for ultra longslides for 10MM or gas operated magnum calibers.
I wish I wouldn’t gotten a Bul 2011 when they were more affordable
"Available mid-year" for Bul = we'll get 6 in and send to guntubers only. I'll look at getting one in 2030
checking BUL's site, the tac comp is priced right, but "available late 2025" . itll be long forgotten by the time you can lay hands on it.
Nope I’ll wait.
David, am I wrong for wanting all 2011’s to come with external extractors these days? 🤷♂️
They need a general public version of shot show its almost disrespectful not to let us in
That’s what NRAAM is or GOALS
Ask them about ramping up production to meet demand.
I really appreciate your efforts! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Will this qualify for IDPA CO?
“What it is is.” Spoken like one of us midwesterners.

I don’t have a stainless pistol. Yet.
Bul Armory releasing guns that no one is able to purchase unless they live in Florida.... great.
I dont understand the need to comp and double comp 9mm guns. There isn't that much recoil to begin with.

Only if they have a better distribution network. I can never find one in store, so why bother releasing vaporwear
They are only available from their website currently
Why shoe us guns that are impossible to track down IRL?
they are distributed exclusively through their website - this isn't necessarily unique to Bul.
already out of stock im sure.
Can somebody please take the cable off not all people steal wtf
The show requires it unless you have a football team of people watching the guns. The only booths with untethered guns had loads of folks.
I would love to own a Bul, but I don't care for holes in my barrels, and the Spike is one awful gun.
And still nothing I can run in IDPA CCP 😞
I know that I do.
Why support a company from a country that committed genocide
Another Bul gun you can't get. I'm tired of wasting my time trying to get a Bul gun, there are so many other options out there, skip you!
Tell BUL to get rid of the V8 holes that go halfway down the barrel and just do 1 large hole at the 10/2 oclock positions
They tested a lot of configurations on ports when they were coming out - this they felt was the best configuration. I saw photos of several barrel configurations during development of their V ports. They tested configuration of ports and size of ports.
I love low recoil, but this is starting to feel like a Key and Peele skit. Next Sig: 75 port P320! Now with 7 comps at the front!
The Spike is a cartoon gun. Idiotic design.
It’s a meme gun on purpose
Staccato killed it this year by taking out the grip safety. Staccato>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bul Armory.
I need one of everything!
