In the 60's and 70's, Israeli intelligence services, the Mossad, El Al sky marshals, and the Tier 1 counter-terror unit Sayeret Matkal had one thing in common: the Beretta Model 71 .22LR pistol.
While many were still debating the "knock down power" of the .45ACP and .357 Mag, these Israeli agents and operatives were actively pushing this sub-compact .22 pistol into counter-terror missions.
Honestly the best part of the video is the second half with "war stories" involving this Beretta .22 in multiple counter-terror operations 10:23 :
11:05 Operation Wrath of God - Mossad agents assassinate terrorists in Europe and the Middle East who were responsible for the Munich Terror Incident
13:55 El Al Flight 432 - How an Israeli Sky Marshal took on multiple terrorists with Kalashnikovs and explosives... while he only had a Beretta .22 (and came out victorious)
17:04 Sabena Flight 571 - The elite Sayeret Matkal special operations group takes on a plane of terrorists with firearms and explosives... while only having concealed Beretta .22's
20:04 the mad lad Mordechai Rahamim - This is the signature presentation style by Count Dankula (I enjoy his "Mad Lad" series) - • DragonLord
Music: Show Me Your Pizza (with vocals) by Tailed Feature - tailedfeature....

-Interesting note is that both Israelis operatives AND the terrorists were interviewed for this documentary. There are a lot of mission details that we could not even go into in detail, that this "docu-drama" did an excellent job at analyzing.
We didn't feature this in the video, but fantastic classic video on Operation Wrath of God if you have a Friday evening open to enjoy an old film:

Mad Lad.
Your excellency in the dank, we hereby submit our suggestion for an "Absolute Mad Lad" episode... the mountain of chins, the deliverer of dirt naps, the densest of tungsten testicals; the beast of the middle-east... Mr. Mordechai Rahamim.
My poor Scott, I wish you could get your dose of freedom and fun in RL instead of on TH-cam = (
Come move to the USA we gladly accept you count.
What a pleasantly unexpected cross-over.
Weirdest timeline ever
Oh shit the Count is here
That Mordecai Rahamim guy is straight out of a 80s action movie. Real history is always better than fiction
Moral of the story...don't fuck with an Israeli. Total badass
@@adamgardiner5869 😎
true badass
Ironically his last name Rahamim translates to mercy or compassion.
Needs a wheel barrel to carry his balls!
Why would you buy an Israeli assassin's pistol? The real question is, why wouldn't you?
Because the ISIS assassin Tariqs are still years away from being imported.
The interesting thing is that some of us who have bought these surplus guns might have the actual gun used in these killings.
US taxpayers already bought them. We just cant play with them.
Exactly. I’m looking them up right now... my lgd will be ordering this to his shop soon
I did a few years ago. I’m glad I did too
How did Mordecai fit through the window of the plane with such gigantic balls?
That's why he only leaned out and had to go out the door in the end.
That's how impressive Mossad's trainings are.
I’m sure he tried to squeeze them through one at a time but ultimately decided that it would take to long and used the door instead.
He slithered in. Thou shalt do war by means of deception!
cool it off w/ the unfired Model 71 to shrink it.
Mr. Rahamim and Mr. Netanyahu exemplify the saying, "beware of old men in a profession where men die young".
It's late here, but thought I'd share a comment. Brief background, IDF Inf/RedBoot then offered job with (Israeli) IDPS agent n US/DSS 1811 in the states. I have shot these pistols mentioned n they have grouped well n some friends own these. I can assure those interested having this specific model. It has the ole school look/feel n operation that Berettas are known for.
That said. With all the selection of Beretta 22lr n M 71 Jaguar, Bobcat others ect. I like the M 71 n Bobcat the most n own both as well. If one wants, you can easily surpress these types of firearms. Ace hardware has everything you need, think outside the box. Using basically gut shooters n close head shots. You'll want plastic bag or pillow/case/shower curtain as they're very messy targets.
Just some humor saying that, PLEASE DON'T ever do that. Although if you children n grandchildren ever harmed by a pedophile, I DIDN'T SEE A DAMN THING. GUARANTEED
I have a extensive small arms with different types n actions. NAA offer a large variety of very small footprints of 22lr n 22mag n it's fun collecting. Fond of the custom Pug 22mag n both Black Widow models. One is called Black Widow stainless n the dark green n black frame is I think Ranger? They both are 100% identical guns. I often ccw the Black Widows in my jeans sap/black jack side pockets just above the knee. (Dickens relax cut) provide the best leg pockets.
The Pug around the neck with fast draw down holster. I am pushing 70s n NOT looking for a gun fight. If I was around city I'd ccw Sig P938 in pocket or my Kimber Ultra Covert 45acp Army/Green Digital, Crimson laser grips in a simple single loop rig. I have ccw guns for 45yrs, n the old saying. I'd rather Have it n Not Need It vs Need It n Not Have It senario. The human body doesn't operate very well nor very long with bullet holes in them.
Hope I helped someone out there today. Enjoy your shooting time n fight for our gun rights as well. As if we don't, they WILL TAKE THEM,,, God Bless, Ty
I found a model 71 Beretta in an original box w/papers & 2 mags at a gun show 45 or so years ago and got it for $100.00. It has an adjustable rear sight (which I never had to adjust - it printed a dead center group @25yds.) The prior owner thought it was too ugly because the bluing on the frame didn't match the bluing on the slide- frame was a deep black and the slide had a purplish hue. The 71 is my favorite squirrel/rabbit gun. It has had several thousand rounds put through it and has NEVER jammed. It shoots best with Federal target grade .22s or similar .22 target lead solids -- it doesn't like hollow-points. It has never jammed with the hollow points but they just aren't as accurate as the lead solids. I've been deer hunting in Vinton County Ohio with the same group of guys for 25+ years and this little pistol has gone with me every year. I didn't get a deer every year but the group has always had squirrel meat on half of those hunts. At home there's probably still 10-15 rabbits in the freezer from the last season. The model 71 and my dad's old .22 Browning auto are my two favorite hunting guns. In my area, i have never seen another model 71 for sale. My wife and I each have a Ruger MK4 slab-sided .22 target pistols and routinely take them to the range where we routinely gather up as many unbroken clay birds from the trap range and then lay them out on the 50 and 100 yard hills and spend some time busting them up with the rugers. The mod. 71 can compete with Rugers on the 50 yard hill but not at 100 yards without a lot of luck and sandbags. As stated, I've never seen another mod. 71 for sale, but if I did or when I do- i'm going to buy it. It's a marvelous pistol.
Frame is neutral black because it's real iron bluing, frame is _slightly_ purplish hued " black" because it's anodized Aluminum. Different base metal, different treatment.

.22 used in 1973 movie Scorpio about CIA assassins.
I love the David vs Goliath analogy.
Everyone else :- "The 22LR is too weak for tactical use."
Sayaret Matkal operative :- Smiles quietly. "Call me David."
I agree with the Israelis. .22LR is just as viable a tactical round as .45 ACP or 9mm.
Lol, 'fer sure! And the whole 'stopping power' argument is all about Marketing and _compensation_ for the inability to perform proper 'placement'... aka, "I can't hit the broad side of a barn."
@@matonmongo Not really. A bigger bullet means a bigger hole. A bigger hole means the bad guy bleeds out faster. Simple math, really.
@@TheAKgunner Well, if making a 'bloody hole' is the best 'ya can aim for, then I guess that'll have to do. ;-p
@@matonmongo Unless you’re a Delta Force of DEVGRU veteran with twenty years experience in gunfights, that’s all anyone can aim for.
"Why would you buy an Israeli assassin's pistol".......because you could and because its a Beretta!
i would love to own one,if it was legal for me to do so.
Got one 😀
Can't get the suppressor though 😬
I have a Beretta but it’s a pocket size 25 , not a 22. Very reliable. No jams.
I didnt realize its legacy when i got one, just cool and fairly affordable.
Yes, I would like to buy the Beretta. My Ruger Mark III is just too heavy for concealed carry.
This is the best mini documentary on a firearm I’ve ever seen. Detailed yet concise, funny but earnest, practical but entertaining. These lads know a lot about firearms, but this should put them on the radar of the history channel. Plus I own one, albeit deactivated. Because British gun laws.
*Some real world lore here:*
The first priority of any spy is to look as suspicious and tacticool as possible.
This can be achieved by squinting while turning your head rapidly, putting on sunglasses even as the sun is going down, and dressing literally the opposite of everyone else
I think you watch too much movies. That would be really suspicious actaully.

I lived in Israel for several years when I was a young man, and I worked as a bellhop in a swanky hotel there. After a while I got to know a couple of the security guards because they had their office right behind our station in the lobby. We would drink coffee and smoke, back then everyone smoked, and one of the security guys was ex mossad. One day we started talking about guns and he told me how effective a .22 pistol could be. When I laughed and called it a chicks gun, that it wasn’t a big enough caliber, he calmly turned to me and said-“ when I put two in your heart and one in your head, you won’t care what caliber it is .” I swallowed and said-“ oh, I’m sure that you’re right.” 😳😕😂😂😂
Black tail Dear Know this To be true around Here.
Shot placement is king. Never sleep on a .22.
@@joeh8785 Don't Sleep Heavy

Thanks for sharing that story. I don’t care what caliber it is. If it’s the hands of mossad it’s enough to scare me.

Bravo gentleman. Bravo 👏🏼
Israeli small arms usage is really wild. I was there in 2012 and I remember seeing security guards with surplus M1 carbines and those weird pistol-carbine conversion kits that I’ve never seen anywhere else, and then regular soldiers with M4s and Tavors. I visited an IDF base and saw one soldier with a carbine built from an M16A1, some of the parts were completely in the white! I can’t imagine the stories that rifle could tell.
It’s a beautiful country-and the falafel is amazing.
Good stuff! Thanks.
Ps. I understand Russian. But you did not know that. That's how i survived.
Ya Missed...
Fascinating, I bought my 70s in '81, my first semi auto, still have it and just rediscovered it the other day. I actually went into buy the Bobcat and came out with it instead. It sat in my safe for about 40 years unused, but I remember how accurate it was and can't wait to go shoot it again.
This was the first firearm I ever used. My late grandfather took me to the pistol range when I was 14 years old, the same week as my birthday because you needed to be 14 to be signed in as a guest. I am embarrassed to say I was immediately told off because I pulled the trigger as fast as I could and rapid fire was at the very least frowned upon there. He had the silencer to go with it too but we didn't use it that day. I have fond memories of this pistol.
"Rule no. 1: When you pull your trigger, you pull it twice. If you aim right in first place, there will be two bullets in your enemy. If not, does not matter if you miss just one bullet or two. You are dead. Make it always twice. Foom-foom. Understand?! Always twice! Foom-foom! Never goddamn foom! Even you asleep! Foom-foom!"
If it's worth pulling the trigger once, then twice is just a bit of insurance !

@@shanek6582 Reference to the movie "Sword of Gideon".
Two times to the body and a third one to the head to make sure the other guy never visit you in the future for revenge. Doesn´t matter if I would use .22lr or 9mm
Always double tap even triple tap is the call
I've never watched this channel before, but I'm subscribing based on the strength of this video. I loved the history and the style. Anyone who buys a gun can tell you "it shoots nicely", but I appreciate it more and get more enjoyment when I know the historical context in which it was used. Great job, these stories and characters were fascinating and make me appreciate the pistol as a historical weapon. Compact, quiet, easy to obtain ammunition for, and limited penetration for use within an airplane filled with passengers. It was a treat to have a interesting gun history lesson combined with a shooting demonstration. I like your sense of humor, too. Thank you for the video.
Not only these guys a great channel....THEY ARE HISTORIANS...bravo on the documentary-style conclusion. The production was top-notch! Loved it!
That martial, what a legend. Your channel is turning into a new forgotten weapons channel.
This beauty is not forgotten! In some parts of Europe, still free of anti-gunism, is all the time well-beloved.
I've been linked to Israel for 14 years, for family reasons. During this period, I've been in contact (and wrote also for some gun magazines, including US ones) about Israeli weapons and met some "people" there. I gathered some info's about Israeli gun laws: to sum up, they sucks. No black rifle, any long gun in military caliber, even if not anymore in use, is forbidden, collecting licensing and reload (yes, you must have a license to reload) are no more released, very difficult to have CCW, unless you're in the Stachim (Occupied Territories), never than ever long range shooting (that's a shame, because I saw in Negev desert magnificent places to open a long range shooting club...). The most curious thing is about .22. While you can obtain a license to buy and keep a 9 x 19 gun at home, or a .357 Mag, and you're not subjected to any particular attention by the Mishtarah (the state police), if you own a .22 lr they put you in the spotlight. I almost forgot to mention, that guns in Israel are NOT private property and you must own a license for EACH OF YOUR GUNS. If you forget to renew it, police can take them and send to destruction (normally they are thrown in the sea in uknown locations). Just my 2 cents.
Wow. That sounds really bad.
Any insights into how a tiny oft-un liked country could be so misguided?

@@immikeurnot you are probably correct, so my bad. I can't stand that insufferable idiot.
moral of the story..,. don't underestimate a 22
Or Israel.
Respect all firearms.
A .22 has always been a favorite for stealth killing. From assassins to serial killers. It's a quiet round but the main reason is that long rifle ammo is hard to trace back to any given gun when ballistic forensics are involved.
Yeah I did not perceive the 22LR as an assassin level caliber
And actually learn the difference between stopping power and killing power.
I owned a 70S in .380 in the 1980's. I wanted a Model 71 as a training aid. I sold the .380 as my department didn't allow semi-auto for off duty carry at the time. I never did get that Model 71. I think I'll fix that mistake soon. Thanks for a great tribute to a great firearm.
That intro honestly scared me. You’re extremely talented with firearms, I’ve seen you hit those long range targets with irons too. I’m glad your a Texan youtuber and not an assassin or terrorist
Of my 3 ccw handguns.... one of them is a Beretta 21a 22lr. It is a primary carry and not a backup, been carrying it for over 30 years and even carried it in combat zones while I served in the military. They are nothing to snub your nose at as the 22lr is as lethal as virtually any other handgun round and mine has functioned more reliably than many center fire pistols I’ve owned. I considered the model 70 &71 but chose the 21a for its DA/SA action as the 70s are SA only. A well made, well maintained, .22lr loaded up with quality ammunition is a serious firearm.
Finally someone admits that the 22 will do the job especially if you practice with it alot and you can with the price of 22 ammo
Mordichai Rahamim , What a badass!, btw I'm israeli and when you said legendary Ehud Barak i giggled a bit because today in politics he's a bit of a meme but if we talk about military career standpoint i think you'e right!
lol I didn't know that he's become a political meme! His military service and decorations are out of the world, that's what I know him for.
@@9HoleReviews Ehud Barak is Israel's most decorated soldier.
Up until the moment he became Chief of Staff, his career was exemplary. From that point on, including the Tze'elim catastrophe, and his political career, Barak has lost it.
It is a shame.
In the early 80s I took my wife to a gun store to pick out her first pistol. She was immediately drawn to the Beretta Model 70 in .22 cal. I bought it for her and almost 40 years later it is still my favorite .22 pistol. It never has had 1 problem an it it very accurate and it's a blast to shoot. An exceptional firearm! PS- I own a lot of pistols and revolvers, many Rugers and Colts and this is the most reliable.
I bought the model 70s in the early 80s I still have it, shoots and looks like new. the only thing I did't like is that it only came with one magazine.
Yes I too purchased my 70s in .22 cal in the early 80s. Many thousands of rounds through it, & it is still my all time favorite .22 pistol.
40 years ago I purchased a Beretta Mod. 70 and soon fired it off-hand using standard velocity Remington ammunition at a small paper target at 50 feet. I was stunned to find the pistol had put six into a small ragged hole, with two just outside of the group, all eight of which could almost be covered with a quarter. I never achieved any group before like that one, especially firing off hand. As far as I am concerned, the Beretta Model 70 is absolutely the most accurate .22 pistol, and my choice of a carry weapon.
I agree. Reliability is unsurpassed.

I love your videos, more specifically, I love the rhythm and tempo of your presentation. There is no fast-paced staccato delivery, just a calm telling of the story. As a Brit I find a lot of the gun related videos from US TH-cam channel go down the chaotic, breathless ‘hell yeah!!’ and ‘gnarly dude!!’ route which can get tiresome... lovely to find a channel that takes a slightly less relentless approach.

Wonderfully detailed, fact-based, and entertaining video, Mr. Chan. Thank you for spotlighting the classic Beretta Model 71 and its place in history! What is the difference between the Model 71 and the Model 70s, also chambered in .22LR and whose magazines contain 8-rounds. The weapons look to be identical, except I believe the 70S can not accommodate a silencer without some barrel work.
Once again, very well done and much more a cinematic immersion than a typical YT video. Bravo!
Fantastic video! You shoud make more ones like this, with all this historic work about the operations of the weapons you are showing.

I had one of these with the barrell internally tapped to accept a male/male adapter allowing a supressor to be used. It was really good fun for plinking and was quite reliable even with the can. Headshots at 10m were trivial to achieve - maybe 2-3 inch groups when fired deliberately. The gun went to the goverment in the Australia gov gun extortion ("buy back"), but I can't recall any issues using the sights with the can. The can was quite an old fashion suppressor from the 70s or so. Suppressors were legal before 1977, and still commonly owned and available after that time - mine was one from that time, IIRC it was only about 1" or so in diameter.
The previous owner of mine was the RSPCA - our animal protection NGO. Apparently it was used o injured racehorces and wild dogs etc before I bought it.

When a pistol is pointed between your eyes, they _all_ seem .50 caliber.
but I saw the pistol come up and thought, he's not someone to casually point the pistol at the camera...
As someone who has unfortunately seen a .38 from the barrel end...I heartily concur. .38 looked like an ICBM!
Armored car personnel just can't take a joke...
Munich - the movie which is being referred in this video, was just a remake. The original one called Sword of Gideon was released in 1986.
that is also the gun of the monster of Florence, a serial killer who killed 17 couples of young boys in Italy between 1968 and 1987, plus all the collateral deaths that occurred, people drowned, mothers with newborns burned alive, etc. so we don't know how many people he killed but there are a lot, that's a truly cursed gun, I had it but I got rid of it immediately, that's truly a cursed series

Spielberg got it wrong in that Munich scene for 1 reason...notably anti gun,therefore he inherently couldn't care less if the weapon in the scene was correct
Or maybe....just maybe they didn't have such a gun at their disposal? 🤔
And the movie carefully neglects to show that the Mossad killed an innocent Moroccan emigrant clerk by mistake in Norway, and in front of his wife. Should be more unbiased. Overall, not a great movie. And we must remember that - although it is no excuse - the Munich massacre was caused by the adamant opposition by Israel of the Palestinians having an Olympic team too...
@@duartesimoes508 Accidents happen. Like during the 7/7 Religion Of Peace slaughter, British police chased down some random kid from Brazil, and shot him in the face about a dozen times.
I believe Spielberg is a very big gun collector. He just might be of the typical east/west coast progressive mindset that HE/THEY can and should own guns but YOU/I shouldn't.
In the documentary 'Milius' (about Hollywood screenwriter John Milius, a notorious conservative in a very liberal industry), it's briefly mentioned that Spielberg is hardly 'anti-gun' at all.
That was an amazing video! Great ending. Kept me glued the entire time! Keep up the great work guys!
Perfect video Henry and Josh, Beretta 71 is a piece of counter terror history.
My father had a Beretta 71, he bought it for a 100 shekell from the goverment. That's about $ 30...
god daaamn
like hey can i a pistol
yeah 30 bucks
This is a Great Video and I wish all serious gun owners would watch this! Having said this, I have been a Glock user all my shooting life and I carried a G19 as my Duty Weapon for over 10 years up to my retirement in 2009. I never shot or carried a .22 handgun until last year and decided to do so because of the high prices for 9mm ammo and I'm glad I decided to purchase several .22LR handguns and a .22 rifle! I am now 78 years old and I have since sold or traded all my Glock 9mm handguns and I now own two Kel-Tec P17's, a CP33, a Beretta .22 Bob Cat and a Rossi RS22 Rifle. I did keep my Glock 48 but now my EDC is my P17 with a 17 round magazine & a spare, for self defense! Now at 78 years old, I have the utmost confidence for my self defense needs!
Excellent blend of historical information and firearms testing and comparison. Mark Felton meets 'Gun Jesus'. Subscribed 👍
Mark Felton is a fraud.
@@ID-8491 A very bold and potentially libellous statement. What is your reasoning?
To be fair, it's not an 'Israeli assassins pistol'. It's an Italian pistol used by 'Israeli assassins'. Excellent presentation, really interesting stuff👍
The ones used by Israeli assassins were “assassins pistols”
Real history is more unbelievable than fiction. Too many are unaware. This was incredibly well done. Much respect for those who have opposed radical forces of evil. That sounds hyperbolic but they stand convicted by their own actions.
You love bolsheviks?
That Count Dankula reference tho. What a mad lad.
Where in the vid? I must have missed it

That final was literally cinematic, great production, congratulations
Was not expecting the history part, very nice!!! :D
It's kinda of amazing how 2 brothers ended up in the same elite unit and both got injured/killed in an counter terrorism operation
The youngest Netanyahu brother (Iddo) also served in the unit.
There is a book called "Brotherhood of Warriors" by Aarron Cohen that touches on this. The book detail's his time in another special Israeli unit, but he gives a quick overview on how Sayeret Matkal (SM) uses blood relations for eligibility at the time. The gist being if you had a past relative who served in that unit your chances are relatively good of at least getting to tryout. If you are a someone who is Jewish and born outside of Israel and are a citizen your not getting in. If you were born in Israel but lack any previous family connections to SM your most likely not going get the opportunity based on what the book says. Keep in mind its been a long time since I've read it and I'm not from Israel so I might be miss remembering things or they might do things differently now.
Couldn't get the model 71 that was compared to the Mark IV, so I got the Mark IV , at 50 yards or further, I'd take the Mark IV. Great video!
Thank for the amazing historic notes. Keep the good work :)
The .22 LR is easily the most underestimated cartridge in use, and one of the older as well. Because it is subsonic it's also effectively suppressed. At the ranch where I grew up there was a split cedar post about 4-inches by 4 inches (ca. 10 cm by 10 cm). There were a series of holes about 2 inches (50.8 mm) across down the center line of the post that were made shooting targets on the post from about 15 yards. The guns used were .22 revolvers and single-shot .22 rfiles using .22 LR. Twenty-twos are easy to shoot and more than adequately accurate at reasonable ranges.
Really enjoyed watching this video. Henry, please keep it coming!
Beautiful ending Henry. Going to miss this stuff when it gets nuked off the platform
In Olympic terms, I give this a 10 for the ending. Lololololol
This is an amazing episode!
I really liked the history that Henry brought out in this episode. Henry and Josh tell it like it is and I really like that. I hope they continue 9 hole reviews for a very long time. 2 thumbs up to these patriotic Americans !
Thank you for showing the truth and reality of life, and how dealing with terrorists must be done. People need to come back to understanding these realities, and quit watching “reality” tv.
I love your video man, especially the ending. It was great and right on track to anyone who knows there history any way's. Who would want one.
this amazing Beretta.. is so damn silent and less vibration too.. this is what you call a silent killer.. I would love to have one..
I had one of these in South Africa. Got a suppressor made for it. Totally loved it. Had subsonic rounds as well.
That spy/assassin who was caught years ago had a .22 suppressed Beretta. Deadly by unexpecting headshots but so so quiet.
My Dad went to Vietnam in 1966. He used a "Target Master" .22 with a silencer. A .22 short round was very effective when you are out playing in the woods with your friends.
I've owned 3 of them over the course of many years. My first one was a 70s with the steel frame when I turned 21 so I was able to buy a pistol LEGALLY! LATER I got a 71 with both barrels (3.5"and 6"), they were both POST 1968 GUN CONTROL ACT so they both had fully adjustable rear sights and a thumb shelf pistol grips so they could be imported as TARGET PISTOLS!!! The last one I got was from 1961 and had the cross bolt safety instead of the 1911 style thumb safety which I like much better because it's harder to put on ACCIDENTALLY in a panic situation when used as a self defense weapon!!! 😮😊😊
Didn't see that ending coming. Good job. Shalom.
I have one of these beautiful little handguns, mine is the earlier model with the crossbar safety as opposed to the thumb safety. Light, accurate, 100% reliable & beautifully made. Also easy to aim if you use both eyes & "superimpose" the handgun over the target.
Shot placement is everything
I bought a Beretta Model 70 in 32 ACP a couple of years ago. Love it. It had barely been fired. It's in pristine condition.
been watching 9 holes for quite dome time now but never posted anything. but i must say, this is the best outro i've seen here, good acting henry
My first gun (not considering the M16, Galil SAR short barrled assault rifle, Uzi SMG, and Walther PPK all issued to me by the IDF). Loved it, performed well on the range and as a concealed carry gun.
Thinking about putting my money towards one. The ppk is one of my favorite handguns, but the interesting history of this one is winning me over a bit.
The idf use ppk? With witch caliber?
I know for the glock and the browning gp 35 but didn’t expect the Walther PPK.
If you don't have suppressor-height sights, you're supposed to use the circle on the firing pin (where the hammer strikes) as your point of aim since it is in line with the barrel.
Realistically you're supposed to be close enough that you can press the silencer into your target's ribs when you pull the trigger
A wonderful review and most enjoyable
Crazy video lads. Thumbs up from Papua New Guinea!
My first handgun which I still own. Everyone who shoots this wants it. Extremely accurate.
“Bad asses” don’t need a reload.
these are extremely popular up here in the Czech rep... I have one myself... the sucker takes anything.... I have some 22 ammo from 1982... chewes it up like a champ....
The 70/71 is the MP5 of 22lr 😂 literally. Both are known for its counter terrorism roles, both are known to be reliable. Beretta needs to bring these back.
Alway far more effective to hit with something light, than to miss with something heavy :)
That is a fallacy.
You getting shot to same part with .22LR and 9mm/.38/.357 etc and you will have as deadly effect.
The difference really is that end hole can be bigger with larger calibers and force amputation for limb, but the .22 will render that limb same way unusable because trauma.
The another main difference is that if your target takes cover behind a one brick thick wall. There .22 LR can't penetrate but .357 will go through that brick wall. But as in hunting and military - don't shoot at something that you can't see because you can't confirm is the threat eliminated or hunt killed.
@@Mk82cal So you agree with me? Better to hit with something light, than miss with something heavy.
This was extremely well presented
Agreed
