- Concrete! Gravel! Water! Mud! Moon dust! Watch us suffer as we make the Tisas suffer many horrible tortures. Though, in truth, this hurt us more than it hurt the gun.

Excellent review! 👏🏼
I got me a Zigana PX9 Gen 3 Duty model a couple of months ago. It turned out to be one of the best handguns for the price. With a threaded 4.6" barrel, fiber optic front sight, optics ready cut, a flat face trigger, flared magwell, including one 18 rounds and one 20 rounds magazines, among other features. Reliable, accurate, with a smooth trigger pull, great ergonomics and an amazing price point. Highly recommended!
What holsters do you use for it?
@@danjones3402 Springfield XDM
I got that same model. I haven't shot it yet. Can't wait

Bought mine few weeks back and the damn thing just runs. So glad with this purchase and optics cut!👍🏽
I just bought this gun tonight.... I went in looking for the Canik TP9 Combat Elite and of course they were sold out, but the guy showed me this and after looking at it, it had absolutely everything the Combat Elite has, and it was $343 out the door compared to $750, plus after watching this im comfortable with it being as reliable as my Caniks are.. I figured for the price abd the action on it alone, it was worth taking a chance.. I appreciate the review and great job.
I paid 239$ for mine 6 months ago. Love this gun - period. Great trigger, sharp shooter, great capacity. A steal!
how you get such a good deal? i only see them going for 350 or more
Last year > Black Friday > Classic Firearms had some for 250, and earlier last year 220 on Palmetto for the PX9 2I0.
Wait for a sale, and keep looking.
Thanks for the video, good selection of tests, paints a full picture. Actually, I have already ordered this gun from Classic Firearms, but this video gives me additional confidence that I made a good decision.
This gun is made in Europe and is used as a duty gun... so it's built to run 124 grain duty ammo, also NATO military ammo is 124 grain. It uses a stiffer spring so you'll more than likely get a stove pipe when it's dirty using 119 grain would be my guess. I have a Stribog and they like the heavier ammo for the same reason.
You can see the weak ejection. I'd agree most of the malfunctions are ammunition induced.
Made in Turkey 🦃
@@jacobfears4630 Well Turkey has a little bit of Europe in it.
Uhm made in turkey bro
That PX9 has Took more of a beating than a lot of US guns would.
The dust here is terrible, I'm surprised it ran at all.
The results very surprising indeed!
Great video. I bought the OD green px9 gen3. Ran 100 rounds so far no hiccups
Appreciate all the great info on this firearm. I am definitely looking to get one.
Awesome content. I was a bit unsure about getting the tisas px9 gen3 duty pistol. This video made it a definite future purchase for me. Thanks again
Bought one two hours ago offline from Buds gun shop for $304 on 11/6 I can't wait to get it .
I thought it took Sig p226 magazines?🤔
@@andrewilliams2751 just got it yesterday yes you are right. I watched another video and dude claim it took Canik mags he was wrong. Now they did fit but wouldn't load the round 😒
There is another review where they determined that the PX9 isn't happy with 115 grain ammo. Switching to at least 124 grain solved that issue completely...
Unfortunately, I have 1,400 rounds of 115 that I need to use up. I'll be switching to 124 or maybe even 135 after that. But I have to say, I've put a lot of 115 through it and haven't had a single issue.
It’s the recoil spring, tisas sells a reduced power recoil spring on their website for 115gr ammo. The tactical and night stalker come with them out the box
Man I cringed when you dropped it on the concrete twice I had to stop and take a breath lmao but I was impressed it still operated perfectly with the exception of the dings on the slide nice review
Entertaining video. To the average person this will never happen.. the people that would expect to do things like this in real life wouldn't be using one of these. But it's good to know it's a solid pistol better than solid especially for under $300.00 I'm tempted.
Love my gen 3. How did it perform compared to other weapons which went under same stress test?
Make the grip shorter to compete against the king, the G19, and it'll sell many more units, but since it's footprint is similar to a CZ P10F, or a SA XDM Elite, it won't sell a ton.
They now have a carry model 3.5 barrel 15 round magazine for 299 at Buds guns shop free shipping and I'd take this over a stock Glock 19 but not a Lone Wolf LTD19 or a Shadow Systems the new PX9 Duty Night Stalker model has a way better finish than a stock Glock and comes standard with a front night sight for around 350 so 200 dollars less than a new gen 5 Glock 19 and the trigger is better on the PX9 the short take up is extremely nice for a stock striker fired trigger
I recognize the moondust and that gravel pile anywhere lol
Mfgs should use you guys for real world testing, thank you
Wasn't expecting that
Even with dust and etc... on or in the gun if you keep oil on you it will function
The maximum you guys could do it was done..... A great performance from a 500 usd gun.... Good effort
now im thinking about doing that drop test with my p320 xcompact. unloaded, of course.
A Vice with rubber inserts and a rubber mallet would accomplish the same thing without f***ing your gun up lol.
I am very impressed 🙏💪
Thank you for this!👍
These guns are amazing for the price point. 248.58 tax and all at my local store. The magazines are sig p226, The sites are Glock 17 dovetail cuts, And for holsters Springfield XDM.
Well made gun with common accessories, magazines, holster combination. Get them while you can I'm sure they Will go up in price soon.
They are advertising under the MAP? highly unlikely.
$286 for the non threaded model this morning.
@@lenculpepper9150 im intrigued. Where are you getting these? I’ll place an order. They are literally MAP’s by Tisas at 289.99. If anyone is advertising under that price, they are likely to be sued by Tisas.
Seems like for edc or duty, with even average care taken of it, it will work every time. You guys had to pull out all the stops to make it quit.
It's a hell of a gun....
Run the torture test like Military Arms Channel. This was kind of a weak torture test. Don’t be scared to load it up before putting it in water or dirt. In a fight you’re not gonna have time to tap it in a cinder block. Get it wet, dirty, muddy and go straight to firing.
Its stove piping cause it doesnt like low weight ammo, do atleast 124 grain not 115
My mind is starting to come around on some of these lower priced firearms. I have always taken care of my weapons and would never think of abusing a $700-900 semi like this simply because I'm in the habit of taking care of them. If I had a dirty job to do I wouldn't carry a nice gun cause I don't want to ugly them up. I'm always leery about buying something cheap to take to nasty work sites and not having it work if I need it. This changes my mind. I can have a $300 pdw that's going to be reliable and if it gets uglies up I'm not going to be all that upset.
This would for sure be a good option for someone in your situation. Budget but you know will RUN!
Bought one on 4/8 and had to send it back the same day to SDS imports for service. Slide wouldn't come off the side and striker wouldn't move forward, when trigger was pulled? True definition of a lemon. Won't keep a firearm that has such issues and will never trust it. They told me? Turn around would be around five weeks. When the Sig Sauer P320 and the Taurus Millennium failed the drop test the triggers didn't move when they discharged. The Taurus Millennium would fire just by shaking it, never mind dropping it. Why I'm reluctant to buy any Taurus G series pistol.
I like what you guys are doing
its funny how he looks away when hes dropping it. 😂.....it hurts me too bro!!
What about a clean bath to remove the dirt after last test to see if the trigger works.
Is there a specific gun that holster will fit the Tisas
Springfield XDM 9mm molds seem to work great.
9mm XD-M Elite holster.
For $300 thats pretty damn good. CZs don’t survive moon dust
Just Ordered the Tisas PX9 Tactical. PX9TTH All the same features as the Duty, RMR Cut, Flared Magwell, but the threaded barrel is 5.1in instead of 4.69 in. So rather than compared to a Glock 45, it would more like the Glock 17. How the hell can you beat $269.99 ??? Wait, I used a credit card and lost the cash discount so it was $278.09. Commnet to boost your algo !!!
That’s a sweet deal! Thank you!
Excellent torture test here guys!! Question: what type of Talon grip did you apply on the Tisas? Thanks
I purchased clear plastic sheets on Amazon and used them to trace the grip handle outline. Then I placed on the Granulate texture grip sheets from Talon. You can also find the talon grip sheets on Amazon. Remember to invert your tracing when cutting out the Talon grips. Good luck brotha!
@@guardianarmstraining6860 thank you sir!
I'm so confused. I just watched another video of this in fde and it is really dark. Like olive drab
I just subbed after this.
I think it ran better on the moon dust haha
What holster are you using? I am not a fan of the holster it came with
I wasn’t fan of it either. In the other video I threw it away 😂. I have a custom Kydex one made. Tisas says any Springfield XDM holsters of the same length slide should work. My holster maker didn’t have the gun and molded one using an XDM. Works great!
Glad it didn't fire when dropped. Was a concern of mine before watching video. Great review guys.
What red/green dot optic would be a good option for this pistol?
The Holosun 508T, 507C x2, RMR type 2, and SRO all fit perfectly on it. The Holosun options come with green dots. I have a 508T G on it now.
@@guardianarmstraining6860 awesome thanks for response.
It couldn't have fired the gun was empty when he dropped it both times.......
Why do you think he unloaded it each time lol
What kind of grip is that? Did you use grip tape?? Looks badass
Usually called talon grips
Ive seen that lower grain ammo will stovepipe this gun
Yeah if it's 115 or lower it just can't get right found that out the hard way 😂😂😂
Interesting I wonder if that's due to it being set up for a suppressor and defensive weight rounds/subsonic ammo (heavier ammo with less bang) since it's for a suppressor and all
@@philcooper9225 yeah Phil, maybe so. Didn’t stop me from making this my first firearm purchase, though!
@@heir__ yeah alotta 9mms do not like light weight ammo so I wouldn't count it against this pistol, you can probably change the recoil spring and use light ammo easily! 124grain and 147grain easy to find 😊
Very common to need a diff recoil spring when you're using diff weight ammo
Poor guy trick with these and caniks designed for 124gr + ammo, lock the slide to the rear and let it sit in the safe for 3 months, then keep it well oiled and run dry fire every day for a couple dozen reps. Seems to be the trick for inexpensive imports.
im naive on the whole "moon dust" what is that?
It’s like super powdery dirt if that make sense. I’m some areas it has super fine rocky particles. In WA we had Mt. St. Helens blow in the 1980’s and covered the entire state in volcanic ash. We have deposits of it everywhere in central WA.
I'm torn between this and a PSA Dagger
PSA if you want a Glock looking gun with a S&W styled trigger. Tisas for a fresh, cool look, that's built like a tank. 👍
Get this when it available. PSA dagger is any time.
I don’t think my 19 could handle that
Damn sure better than a glock. I only say it for 2 reasons. Tisas Px9 is proven reliable and plus i can’t stand glockboys lol
Coo
The stove pipe is his limp ass wrist.
Do you feel better about your pathetic life now? 🤣
True
Trie to do same thing to your car or truck engine and se what happens 🎉😊mi i love my guns

At every point I click on a timeline in this video, it's only you talking. I've yet to see a shot fired.
Patience young grass hopper. Watch the video.
Totally pointless
We are not quick to rush to conclusions here. What’s “totally pointless”? I would love to hear your point of view.
Duhhhh
