I was happy to see the G3C on that list. Some people trash talk Taurus, but they have come a long way in a short time with regards to quality and reliability.
I agree they have came a long way. I personally dont think I'll be trying Taurus for a while had 2 different g2c's that couldn't make it through a single 12 round mag was ridiculous. Gave them both 500 plus rounds to break in Multiple types of ammo and +p. Only after changing guid rod ,striker spring and striker retainer from lake line llc would they preform decently well. So I let a few years go buy and bought a g3c thinking they must of been much improved. 2 mags made it through and exact same problems of the g2c. Same part swap out from lake line and it preforms flawlessly. Once Taurus gets there quality control in check in a big way it they will be top tier in the budget world.
I was really happy to see the G3C on the list. I'm usually a Glock guy, but I grabbed a G3C as an extra gun to toss in the basement for a rainy day. I'm very impressed with it. It's been 100% reliable. Great capacity for it's size, small enough to easily conceal yet big enough to enjoy it at the range and great steel magazines that easily drop free. I recommend it often to new shooters on a budget. Edit: it also takes Glock compatible sights.
The LCP MAX is my carry gun. Was glad to see it on your list. I purchased a Canik TP9DA a couple of months ago because I wanted an inexpensive 9mm with 18 round capacity. It fits the bill. Your Canik reviews are a big reason I chose it. Thank you for all that you do.
I have LCP Max, Taurus G3c, and Canik Rival. The LCP Max has a terrible trigger and is much harder to shoot but it makes up for it with its light weight and small size allowing one to carry in pocket holster in one's summer shorts. Most people have shot mine looked at me when they could not get it to fire. I tell them to just pull harder. Some recommend Hogue LCP II grip sleeve and cutting off short edges of trigger to prevent finger pinching. Both helped a lot. I needed the grip sleeve to control the nasty muzzle snap. The 12 round mags swell fully loaded making them difficult to lock into the mag well. The G3c trigger is okay at best as it has a lot of travel far back before it breaks. I like the trigger in the Shield Plus much better. The shield was $550 last year when I paid about $230 for the G3c. Shield Plus MSRP was lowered a few months ago to $400. Negative is no light rail on Shield Plus and the mags may still be hard to find. Canik Rival is great for competitions with crisp trigger break and short reset.
P10C is my favorite striker fired pistol of all time. 2500 rounds zero issues. My wife runs a Canik TP9 Elite SC. 3000 rounds zero issues. She got it for $360 on Black Friday and I got her an RMSC for $215. She loves that gun so much and recommends it to every single person at our local gun store.
100% agreed. I own an optics equipped P10F, a P10C AND a P10S. They are incredible firearms. Ergonomics, grip texture, low bore axis, great trigger, good sights, awesome controls, great grip angle, solid barrels, all far better than stock glock features. I've been using the full sized P10F with a Holosun red dot as my race gun. It's so accurate, it's like shooting a rifle lol!
I love my P10C and probably have nearly 10k rounds through it. Flawless performance and accuracy. That being said, I recently picked up a Walther PDP Pro 5.1 inch that has the best trigger this side of a 1911. Definitely the best striker trigger imho.
@@thetacticalape8852 shot the 4.5in PDP. Trigger was amazing. Gun was a little on the lighter side for me and had a lot more recoil. I’d imagine the Pro series PDP trigger feels similar to the Canik Rival which is the best trigger I’ve felt apart from a 1911.
Picked up a Canik at a show in Des Moines a couple years ago after seeing the spec sheet, couldn't be happier, and glad to know it holds up to the competition!
The Canik TP9 Elite sc is my #1 carry option. I own a Hellcat, PDP, PPS M2, Canik Mete, and a several 380's. I almost always carry the Elite sc, to me it's just the right size, small enough to carry but large enough to shoot acuratly. Plus it comes optic ready!
@@jamaaloverton7558 Yes, same with the full size PDP's. My #2 choice is usually my PPS M2, thinner and lighter so a little easier to carry with lighter cloths, but still big enough to shoot accuratly and comfortably. I've found out by trial and error subcompacts aren't for me.
All of the CZ P series is a win. The F,C or S. The single stack M model i do not have experience with, but i own the F,C and S and have owned in the past the P07. All of them are awesome in my opinion.
I’m in the exact situation. I bought the 17 rd mag and later bought the specter slide with the built on comp. I call it my franken-sig but man is it sweet
If anyone is curious, the P10S (12+1 capacity, 3.5" barrel) is the sub compact P10...and very soft shooting for their size. Same amazing trigger and ergos as the larger C & F. Not as slender as the Hellcat/GX4/365/Shield Plus, but if you like carrying the basic "platform" all the time, it might be an answer for you if you like the P10.
Canik for the win, again 🙌🏼!! I honestly bought my TP9-SFX because of your reviews and I have yet to regret it. It's been an absolutely solid performer and has been completely reliable. I have it in my nightstand so I'm trusting my family's safety with it. Thanks for the vid, I know several people I can send this to that are in the market for the $500-600 range. Nice work.
@@baconeggstoast5327 not on both at the same time. It is reversible. Fairly easily as well, but the slide lever is not. The TP9 SC is ambidextrous though
@@baconeggstoast5327 oh it's quite a bit bigger than the SC. I'd only CCW the SFx in the winter with a big coat 😂. Or open carry with great retention. Otherwise, the SC is the way to go for CCW. I was very close to buying that one, but the SFx is great for home defense and for a first gun (which it is mine). I'm 99% sure my next will be the TP9 SC though. Especially since the mags are interchangeable.
The Ruger LCP Max is my go-to carry gun, and it was great to see it on your channel. Living in a major city where any kind of noticeable imprint will draw all kinds of attention, it's great to have a capable pocket gun.
Surprised Glock didn't make the list. Happy to see my P365 on the list, I have to have it because I live in Oregon where you now have to have 10-rnd magazines in order to carry a gun with you in public. Can you do video on 10-rnd guns for those of us who live in places like Oregon, Washington, California, Colorado, Washington DC, New York, New Jersey, etc?
My dad carried a .38 LCR on his ankle as a backup gun when he was a cop. One time he got overpowered by a large man who had him on the ground trying to wrestle his service pistol from the holster. My dad grabbed the LCR off his ankle, stuck it in the guy’s chest and was literally a second from pulling the trigger when his backup showed up and subdued the man. I think it’s hard to justify picking a revolver as a carry gun in a world of affordable and reliable micro 9’s, but as was said in the video, they’re very optimal for specific CQB situations like that.
Have had the Taurus PT111 Millennium G2 for a number of years and have carried it for more than a few. 12 +1 capacity. Very accurate out to 20 yards....my range. It conceals very well, ergonomics are great and it is light enough to not be noticed when carried all day. I have found it to be reliable when routinely cleaned after 200 rounds or so....also polish the feed ramp at that time as well. Only complaint is that the magazines rattle around a bit.
I have had a Millennium G2 for 7 years. Never a complaint. I truly don't understand all the Taurus hate that is out there. Maybe it is buyer remorse for buying a gun that cost twice as much as a Taurus, and doesn't deliver twice the value.
Put one of your girlfriend's hair ties on your magazine It will stop the rattle Then just leave it. I love my G2C also had it 2 years And never a hickup.
Thanks for the video. I'm a big Taurus G3 fan. I started out a training class with a small 380 because I was told I should train with what I typically carry and with that small 380 I always carried it because it's so small and unobtrusive. However during the training I took, it became cumbersome loading 8 round magazines all the time so I switched to my G3 backup gun to complete the course. Although it is not my primary EDC (and neither is a 380 anymore) the Taurus G3 did not have a single malfunction in nearly a thousand rounds.
I carried a Ruger LCP .380 for years and it was awesome for when I bicycled as it was so small and light weight. With all the civil unrest for the last couple of years I decided to step up to a Glock 43X 9mm carry as it's a decent size for exercising and fits well in a cargo short pocket. Just bought a Canik TP9SF and may carry it as it's not too big to be uncomfortable.
Again, I can say that I didn't make a mistake when couple years ago, I bought that Canik SC , where I was initially actually surprised how accurate it is. Thanks for the video. 👍👍
P365XL 9mm here. Going on 5000 rounds without a hiccup. Just for fun, upgrading to a Shalotek slide with integral compensation without having to go to a shorter barrel (like the XComp)... might see a Wilson Combat grip module (loving the module thang) to upgrade the capacity... one paycheck at a time...
I picked up the G3 for $150 as an impulse purchase for the wife as a range toy, but have to admit I was actually impressed for a cheap gun. We've had it for a year now and can't say we've had a problem with it. Lots of rounds through it doesn't jam and nothing's broken. Don't get me wrong neither one of us want to carry the thing, nor am I saying everyone would have the same experience with their perches but impressive for $150 never the less.
I bought the G2c because I wanted an inexpensive gun I can leave in my car, when at the bar, incase it gets stollen, because that's how gun control works🤨
My top 3 that I am currently rotating are, SW MP Shield +, Hellcat Pro, and as of about three months ago Canik METE MC9. My wife packs her Ruger LCP Max 380 or her Beretta APXA1 Carry or sometimes my Ruger Max 9. All good guns. Keep up the good work and the reviews! ABC! 🇺🇸
Excellent video. Several outstanding handguns on the list. The Ruger LCRx (with exposed hammer) shown in the video is a variation of the LCR. Both are very good wheel guns and the LCR (enclosed hammer) might be a better choice for a carry gun. Keep up the good work.
I always watch your reviews to help me make my decisions on guns I own or want to purchase. I definately agree with your number 1. I also have the SC Elite and it feels great, extremely accurate out of the box and extremely great trigger. Love your vids Outlaw keep up with these awesome vids
I ended up getting a M&P Shield Performance Center. Been very impressed with it. Thanks for this video and others i wanted to get something reliable for the money and you helped me decide.
I'm so glad 3 guns I own made the list 😁 What surprised me most is how often I carry my LCP Max. It's perfect for the AZ heat and it serves primarily as my gym carry when I wear my hootchie short shorts.
Bro like you I have been blessed with a great arsenal and out of my collection of very good very expensive weapons my 24/7 companion is my TP9 ELITE sc !!! It is with me always!!!! Great review!!! As always!!!
The 4” performance center shield plus is criminally slept on. It’s similar in size to the p365xl, which if anything is even more popular than the original p365, but yet for some weird reason it doesn’t get as much love as the normal shield plus. I think it’d be much more popular if S&W marketed it more but I guess at the same time I kind of like having something that’s more uncommon and unique. It really is a hidden gem.
I'd like the longer barrel....BUT...orange should not be in the rear visually distracting you. Also same exact size Arex Delta holds more so there is that.
@@DanTheWolfman Are you referring to the orange/red fiber optic sights? I don’t mind them but I personally switched them out for black inserts. So mine is just blacked out rears with a green front fiber optic. Super easy to do. Also, I’m a huge arex fan myself and I think they’re criminally under appreciated. But even still it’s hard to compare them as far as proven reliability and track record go. The shield plus is also much more versatile with its ability to take the smaller 10 round magazine for easier concealment. Not to mention Smith released that new 15 round magazine, and with magguts you can bump your 13 rounder up to 15 as well. So there isn’t really a big difference in capacity. On a side note I also have a American founded and made bias too admittedly. But hey if you love your arex delta M then fair enough brother. They make great guns and I respect the hell out of them.
I've been shooting a 9mm Canik TP9SA for around 5 years now and it's so much better than all of the more popular 9mm options (and people haven't even heard of it most of the time).
I never thought I would own a striker fired pistol. The CZ P-10 S is my EDC (with some mods). My 1911A1 and my Kimber Micro 9 are backup...my CZ Shadow 2 is being ignored until I can get some competition training. Great video. Peace Outlaw!
My current carry gun is a Sig P365-380.The grip is a bit small so I got a Wilson Combat grip module which fills my hand a bit better. The pistol is fairly light, but not so light that it's unpleasant to shoot like a lot of other micro-380s, and I feel extremely confident with it. During the colder months I have an HK VP9SK that is easier for me to conceal with heavier clothing. And I feel I need the extra umph of 9mm during the winter to get penetration thru heavier clothing if that situation arises.
I've been eyeing the p365-380. Looks like a pleasant low recoil shooter with still enough just enough capacity, reliability, and lethality. Only downside I've heard is less forgiving with bad grip which can cause malfunctions.
CZ P10C has been phenomenal. 1000s of rounds in it and not a single issue. The only reason I couldn't recommend it as #1 is at the time of purchasing mine there was no optics ready models. I am planning on getting the slide milled eventually as I already have the optic for it.
I carry a P10s. Feels great in my hand just like the P10c. I've tried many micro 9s and keep coming back to the subcompacts (P10s & M&P 2.0) Plus, you can carry a 19 or 17 round backup mag.
I have the P365XL, love it, but frequently carry the GX4 instead. It fits in a cargo pocket better. I also have the LCP Max and it gets a lot of carry time too. My revolver choices are a 856UL and a 5 shot Charter 357 snubbie. I had a P320 SC, but it felt like a brick to conceal. Its almost the exact size of the Canik TP9SC, so I passed up the Canik. There's nothing wrong with a G3C, I owned one. But I think the GX4 would be a better choice.
Glad to see the G3C on the list. One of the three EDC in my rotation along with Glock 43X and S&W M&P 40c. I've added 15 round mags, Talon grip tape, and tritium front sight.
Another great video Honest Outlaw! My favorite 2 this year are the Shield Plus (especially after the new S&W pricing) if you are looking for a concealed carry option and the Beretta APX A1 Full size if you want a larger pistol. The Shield Plus is 4 benjys and the optics ready version (also includes night sights) for 4.5 benjys. It's tiny, extremely shootable for its size, has excellent grip texture, the grip swells out to fit my hands, has the best trigger in its category, and has excellent capacity. The APX A1 Full size can be had for 379-429 (479 max if you don't feel like looking for a deal) and it has so many improvements over the original APX Full size. It has a deeper grip and beavertail area to really get under the gun, comes optics ready, has night sights, better ergonomics, lack of finger grooves, slightly better trigger (still meh though unless you are used to Glocks triggers), better slide serrations, double trigger undercut, new recoil spring that should theoretically last longer, better checkering on the grip and frame, and supposedly the finish is more durable. At that price it's cheaper than the original RDO APX if you want an optics ready pistol but it comes with more improvements. If you are willing to spend a little more the Walther PDP and Sig P365 XMacro are excellent guns for the cost.
Nice descriptions! You highlighted my two favorites from this list. Mr. Outlaw might be a bit misinformed WRT the APX A1 for which there are basically no holsters available (no compatibility between the original and the A1).
Your channel has become a go to for me. My bad for taking so long to hit the subscribe button. I have a macro and a 365x. I even have sig 210c. But lately I have been carrying my 1911 a lot. Sometimes you just want to carry a .45. Came across a SDS Tisas carry in .45 at my local shop. Wanted to get your thoughts on that company. My full size is a kimber custom 2 (two tone). Keep up the good work.
Love my Canik TC Elite with the Shield SMS. Amazing for the price. Never had an issue at the range! Love your top ten list. Thanks again for all your reviews
I absolutely love my canik tp9 sc. The 15 rd mag is perfect for my big ass hands. Only downside, the mags are freakin' expensive and usually out of stock. The 12 rounder works, but it's got a bit of pinky hangover. Great list, man. I'm gonna have to try some of these.
Bought the LCP Max for my birthday as a “walk to the mailbox gun” and ended up loving the little thing whenever I’m wearing shorts or sweats, especially in the summer.
@@tillman40 heavier but extremely light for a metal frame and very controllable recoil. 13+1 but exact same dimensions as my Glock 26 with a Gen 5 12+1 mag
Your channel never stops entertaining. Thank you for supporting all the children who are less fortunate. Do you think you will do this list also for shotguns, sub gun , AR15, bolt action hunting rifles and pocket knives?
I have the Canik TP9SFX and love it. I thought the SC was #1 last year and I was wondering the whole time if it completely dropped off the list or stayed at the top. Probably need to grab one😃
Great video! Just don't understand why the Taurus G3C it's on the list instead of the GX4 T.O.R.O. I had a G2C as a carry weapon(had some issues), and when I change it, the G3C didn't even cross my mind, I went straight to the GX4, 350rds and zero malfunctions so far.
Great reviews...you do the best of them all. I agree wholeheartedly with your choice of the Canik as #1. Old school 1911, Sig 220 series for decades until I experienced this model of Canik. Just superb out of the box...tried to stove pipe etc. with different loads/ brands out of same magazine without a hiccup over a 1000 rounds. Easy to field strip. This old dog got taught a new trick with a Canik...now have several models, all unbelievably superb regardless of price but the price makes you feel like you're getting something over on somebody.
I got my shield plus for 350 bucks brand new. Came with 2 ten round mags and 1 13rd. I've carried Walthers, sigs, glocks but for the money the shield plus is BY FAR your best option!
Another great review! One option I've been considering is the IWI Masada S. Then again, I love my Jerichos, so I am a fan of IWI. The P30SK, while a little thick, is likely my favorite, but not inexpensive.
Mind blown. I called the P-07 as his number one before ever clicking the video. Was dead sure it was his number one the whole way through, then about got the wind knocked out of me. Guess I've got some guns to go shoot now. Thanks Chris, love the videos!
I have both the G3C and the LCP Max So I was happy to see them included in your. Both of them have been accurate and reliable for me . I believe the LCP Max is actually a hammer fired pistol not a striker fired pistol. Just the size of the LCP Maxx makes it like you said an ideal gun just a slip in your pocket take with you as you're out and about or if you're looking for a car gun it would fit the bill for that too. Over the years the 380 has kind of been frowned upon as a wimpy round but there are actually some pretty good 380 rounds out there right now The small diminutive size of the LCP Max takes a little bit to get used to but once you do it's really comfortable to handle and shoot.
I bought the Canik tps9elite sc because of your recommendations. I knew you wouldn't lie about it or disappointe me and believe me you did not Chris. That pistol will do everything you said it would and dollar for dollar it's damn hard to beat it in this economy. Thank-you so much love the Canik tp9 elite SC.
You need to put out a Top 5 list of TH-cam reviewers that can provide the general public with firearm purchases that are reliable, accurate and don't break the bank. Please add the Honest Outlaw to the first 4 names and on the the 5th spot refer to first 4 names on the list.
Loving your content, and I'm also in the sticks of northeast iowa! Been carrying the Canik tp9 elite sc the last 3 years, and I'm looking forward to carrying the shield or hellcat Instead. The tp9 elite sc is twice the weight of all the others on the list and 1.5x the thickness. It's made for combat and owb carrying; not for iwb cc (imo).
Always quality content! Any chance you'd be willing to do a top 5 list on 45 acp pistols in the future? I'd like to add something other than 9mms to the collection in the future and your experience and opinions are incredibly helpful in narrowing things down!
Quad Citizen here..I currently don’t have any firearms but I’m looking to only buy one. Just one lol. I figured it might as well get one that can also be used to concealed carry. So with all that being said, since it’ll just have the one gun in not too worried about the cost. Additional info, for what it’s worth, I have smaller hands. Thanks so much love your videos, the best on YT!
Praise worthy, for $70!The only issue was the round gasket ring seal between the CO2 and needle th-cam.com/users/postUgkxnX9wE_Q8zvF75Y5iWzTU3Q4FlrtyGApQ . Withered away, and I'm having a tough time finding a replacement.Gun still works perfectly, but needs a new gasket. Can someone please say where to find the gasket replacement?
Great video! I bought my Taurus g2c about a year or two ago just to try out the 2nd strike capability and actually fell in love with it. Great for laser training and picked it up on PSA for 180 bones.... Great little pistol
Thank you Sir for confirming my gut instinct when I purchased the TP9 SC 7 months ago. You are the best gun reviewer on TH-cam. Not even close. No B.S and I respect that. I just put the Holosun 507K on it. The 2nd trip to the range w the dot and I’m kind of shocked at how accurate it is. It’s rivaling my TP9 Elite Combat ( with the Red Dot). I Love My American made guns, but damn the Turks are making some great stuff
I just purchased a canik tp9 elite sc and i dont think i ill ever carry a different gun again. Since i bought it, it has been glued to my hip lol. I cannot recommend it enough!
I had purchased my 1st 2nd and 3rd carry guns based on Honest Outlaw's reviews and recommendations and I can't be happier. My Taurus, shield plus and SC Elite are my go to CCW
I have a P365XL for carry and later got a Canik Mete SFX for home defense. I love my Sig but after owning the Canik I kinda wish I had gotten the TP9 Elite SC for carry because that trigger is amazing.
Great video! Mossberg MC2 SC. 14+1 is my choice and I have very big hands. It's durable, reliable, slim, comfortable, doesn't break the bank and a great shooter that is optic ready! Love mine with a Riton red dot!
I have the MC1 version so 6 or 7 rounds plus one I had to put trigger spring kit in it because before that it sucked for pulling the trigger but now it's a good little gun it's very concealable I don't carry it anymore I still have it but I got the hellcat pro which is also pretty easy to conceal it needs a trigger kit too
I just bought a hellcat. Unfortunately the dealer didn't have the hellcat pro in stock at the time so I bought the standard hellcat. No complaints so far
i bought a canik tp9da last year, while its not optic ready it performs incredibly and is easy to maintain and dissassemble for cleaning, for 300 bucks it has been the best money ive spent on a firearm. im also a softy for a snazzy bronze color
I got a Canik TP9 SC back in October and my only complaint I have with it so far is I've just not had enough time to put more rounds down range with it. I'm extremely picky when it comes to handguns because it's a far more personal choice than a shotgun or a rifle with how well it fits your hands and how the overall feel is, and when I discovered how important grip indents were for index shooting for me, the Canik TP9 SC just felt like a natural fit. The trigger is so nice I find that I actually have to remind myself to slow down to not piss off the RSOs at indoor ranges. At some point I absolutely want to get a real fullsized Walther in 9mm, but I doubt I'll ever be able to bring myself to get rid of my TP9 no matter how gucci my personal collection gets to be.
You need to try a M&P9 Compact 2.0 with the 3.6" barrel. It is a Glock 26 slide with Glock 19 grip and 15 round capacity. Flies below the radar for a concealed carry rig.

Some hero’s don’t wear capes
Thank you sir. Every TH-camr should do this. Index your friggin videos... ESPECIALLY when you list things.
Figure it out dude.
I was happy to see the G3C on that list. Some people trash talk Taurus, but they have come a long way in a short time with regards to quality and reliability.
Trash, trash, trash, talk, talk, talk.
I agree. I have an older G2 and after probably 1000 rds or so. ive never had any issues. i got mine for $220 means more $$ for ammo :)
I agree they have came a long way. I personally dont think I'll be trying Taurus for a while had 2 different g2c's that couldn't make it through a single 12 round mag was ridiculous. Gave them both 500 plus rounds to break in Multiple types of ammo and +p. Only after changing guid rod ,striker spring and striker retainer from lake line llc would they preform decently well. So I let a few years go buy and bought a g3c thinking they must of been much improved. 2 mags made it through and exact same problems of the g2c. Same part swap out from lake line and it preforms flawlessly. Once Taurus gets there quality control in check in a big way it they will be top tier in the budget world.
Agreed!! I carry a g3 right now, don’t bash it’s my first gun. I put close to 500 rounds in it and it’s been good so far
Not bashing it, but the wife tried it out in the store and she hated the grip.
I’m a simple man I see Honest Outlaw review videos I hit like before watching
@Omar Slim how did you get those emotes?
Same!
Same
I agree 💯! I hit like because I know the video will be honest and thorough.
Always
I was really happy to see the G3C on the list. I'm usually a Glock guy, but I grabbed a G3C as an extra gun to toss in the basement for a rainy day. I'm very impressed with it. It's been 100% reliable. Great capacity for it's size, small enough to easily conceal yet big enough to enjoy it at the range and great steel magazines that easily drop free. I recommend it often to new shooters on a budget.
Edit: it also takes Glock compatible sights.
Nice to hear.
The LCP MAX is my carry gun. Was glad to see it on your list. I purchased a Canik TP9DA a couple of months ago because I wanted an inexpensive 9mm with 18 round capacity. It fits the bill. Your Canik reviews are a big reason I chose it. Thank you for all that you do.
The concept of a decocker or DA/SA on a striker fired is brilliant
Youre about to get hooked now I have 4 caniks and a Walther PDP and I prefer the caniks especially the TP9 Elite Combat Executive
@@Sig_P229 walther p99 clone great guns
My wife and I both carry the max. Awesome little gun!
I have LCP Max, Taurus G3c, and Canik Rival. The LCP Max has a terrible trigger and is much harder to shoot but it makes up for it with its light weight and small size allowing one to carry in pocket holster in one's summer shorts. Most people have shot mine looked at me when they could not get it to fire. I tell them to just pull harder. Some recommend Hogue LCP II grip sleeve and cutting off short edges of trigger to prevent finger pinching. Both helped a lot. I needed the grip sleeve to control the nasty muzzle snap. The 12 round mags swell fully loaded making them difficult to lock into the mag well.
The G3c trigger is okay at best as it has a lot of travel far back before it breaks. I like the trigger in the Shield Plus much better. The shield was $550 last year when I paid about $230 for the G3c. Shield Plus MSRP was lowered a few months ago to $400. Negative is no light rail on Shield Plus and the mags may still be hard to find.
Canik Rival is great for competitions with crisp trigger break and short reset.
Absolutely the best unbiased gun reviews on TH-cam, Thank You Sir for what you do...
P10C is my favorite striker fired pistol of all time. 2500 rounds zero issues. My wife runs a Canik TP9 Elite SC. 3000 rounds zero issues. She got it for $360 on Black Friday and I got her an RMSC for $215. She loves that gun so much and recommends it to every single person at our local gun store.
100% agreed. I own an optics equipped P10F, a P10C AND a P10S. They are incredible firearms. Ergonomics, grip texture, low bore axis, great trigger, good sights, awesome controls, great grip angle, solid barrels, all far better than stock glock features. I've been using the full sized P10F with a Holosun red dot as my race gun. It's so accurate, it's like shooting a rifle lol!
How is the trigger on the cz p10s. Always been curious, does it have as much take up as canik?
@@nu5270 slightly more take up, but a smooth crisp, audible break, and short reset. I can run my P10C with speed and accuracy.
I love my P10C and probably have nearly 10k rounds through it. Flawless performance and accuracy. That being said, I recently picked up a Walther PDP Pro 5.1 inch that has the best trigger this side of a 1911. Definitely the best striker trigger imho.
@@thetacticalape8852 shot the 4.5in PDP. Trigger was amazing. Gun was a little on the lighter side for me and had a lot more recoil. I’d imagine the Pro series PDP trigger feels similar to the Canik Rival which is the best trigger I’ve felt apart from a 1911.
Picked up a Canik at a show in Des Moines a couple years ago after seeing the spec sheet, couldn't be happier, and glad to know it holds up to the competition!
The Canik TP9 Elite sc is my #1 carry option. I own a Hellcat, PDP, PPS M2, Canik Mete, and a several 380's. I almost always carry the Elite sc, to me it's just the right size, small enough to carry but large enough to shoot acuratly. Plus it comes optic ready!
☝️ditto
I carry the canik tp9sf elite everyday I prefer the compact over the subcompact
Trying to carry a fully loaded METE is touch sledding
@@jamaaloverton7558 Yes, same with the full size PDP's. My #2 choice is usually my PPS M2, thinner and lighter so a little easier to carry with lighter cloths, but still big enough to shoot accuratly and comfortably. I've found out by trial and error subcompacts aren't for me.
All of the CZ P series is a win. The F,C or S. The single stack M model i do not have experience with, but i own the F,C and S and have owned in the past the P07. All of them are awesome in my opinion.
I love my P365xl spectre comp, I also almost never recommend it to people given its cost relative to the x-macro.
I switch from a 1911A1 or M9, I carry a Glock 26 as a BUG
I’m in the exact situation. I bought the 17 rd mag and later bought the specter slide with the built on comp. I call it my franken-sig but man is it sweet
If anyone is curious, the P10S (12+1 capacity, 3.5" barrel) is the sub compact P10...and very soft shooting for their size. Same amazing trigger and ergos as the larger C & F. Not as slender as the Hellcat/GX4/365/Shield Plus, but if you like carrying the basic "platform" all the time, it might be an answer for you if you like the P10.
Excellent gun!
Canik for the win, again 🙌🏼!!
I honestly bought my TP9-SFX because of your reviews and I have yet to regret it. It's been an absolutely solid performer and has been completely reliable. I have it in my nightstand so I'm trusting my family's safety with it. Thanks for the vid, I know several people I can send this to that are in the market for the $500-600 range. Nice work.
Does it have a mag release on both sides?? I am a lefty shooter
@@baconeggstoast5327 not on both at the same time. It is reversible. Fairly easily as well, but the slide lever is not. The TP9 SC is ambidextrous though
@@baconeggstoast5327 you know what, I just realized the METE SFX is ambi and it's basically the same gun with some usability improvements.
@@chrisbanks7830 good for CCW? Isn’t it bigger than the tp9 sc
@@baconeggstoast5327 oh it's quite a bit bigger than the SC. I'd only CCW the SFx in the winter with a big coat 😂. Or open carry with great retention.
Otherwise, the SC is the way to go for CCW. I was very close to buying that one, but the SFx is great for home defense and for a first gun (which it is mine).
I'm 99% sure my next will be the TP9 SC though. Especially since the mags are interchangeable.
The Ruger LCP Max is my go-to carry gun, and it was great to see it on your channel. Living in a major city where any kind of noticeable imprint will draw all kinds of attention, it's great to have a capable pocket gun.
Surprised Glock didn't make the list. Happy to see my P365 on the list, I have to have it because I live in Oregon where you now have to have 10-rnd magazines in order to carry a gun with you in public. Can you do video on 10-rnd guns for those of us who live in places like Oregon, Washington, California, Colorado, Washington DC, New York, New Jersey, etc?
My dad carried a .38 LCR on his ankle as a backup gun when he was a cop. One time he got overpowered by a large man who had him on the ground trying to wrestle his service pistol from the holster. My dad grabbed the LCR off his ankle, stuck it in the guy’s chest and was literally a second from pulling the trigger when his backup showed up and subdued the man. I think it’s hard to justify picking a revolver as a carry gun in a world of affordable and reliable micro 9’s, but as was said in the video, they’re very optimal for specific CQB situations like that.
Have had the Taurus PT111 Millennium G2 for a number of years and have carried it for more than a few. 12 +1 capacity. Very accurate out to 20 yards....my range.
It conceals very well, ergonomics are great and it is light enough to not be noticed when carried all day. I have found it to be reliable when routinely cleaned after 200 rounds or so....also polish the feed ramp at that time as well. Only complaint is that the magazines rattle around a bit.
I have the same as a EDC and love it. Picked up a G2C as well. Awesome little guns.
I have had a Millennium G2 for 7 years. Never a complaint. I truly don't understand all the Taurus hate that is out there. Maybe it is buyer remorse for buying a gun that cost twice as much as a Taurus, and doesn't deliver twice the value.
Put one of your girlfriend's hair ties on your magazine It will stop the rattle Then just leave it. I love my G2C also had it 2 years And never a hickup.
Thank you for posting all of the “Top 5, 10 lists” videos. I appreciate the reviews / content and your “honest” opinions!
Thanks for the video. I'm a big Taurus G3 fan. I started out a training class with a small 380 because I was told I should train with what I typically carry and with that small 380 I always carried it because it's so small and unobtrusive. However during the training I took, it became cumbersome loading 8 round magazines all the time so I switched to my G3 backup gun to complete the course. Although it is not my primary EDC (and neither is a 380 anymore) the Taurus G3 did not have a single malfunction in nearly a thousand rounds.
I carried a Ruger LCP .380 for years and it was awesome for when I bicycled as it was so small and light weight. With all the civil unrest for the last couple of years I decided to step up to a Glock 43X 9mm carry as it's a decent size for exercising and fits well in a cargo short pocket. Just bought a Canik TP9SF and may carry it as it's not too big to be uncomfortable.
Again, I can say that I didn't make a mistake when couple years ago, I bought that Canik SC , where I was initially actually surprised how accurate it is. Thanks for the video. 👍👍
P365XL 9mm here. Going on 5000 rounds without a hiccup. Just for fun, upgrading to a Shalotek slide with integral compensation without having to go to a shorter barrel (like the XComp)... might see a Wilson Combat grip module (loving the module thang) to upgrade the capacity... one paycheck at a time...
I picked up the G3 for $150 as an impulse purchase for the wife as a range toy, but have to admit I was actually impressed for a cheap gun. We've had it for a year now and can't say we've had a problem with it. Lots of rounds through it doesn't jam and nothing's broken. Don't get me wrong neither one of us want to carry the thing, nor am I saying everyone would have the same experience with their perches but impressive for $150 never the less.
My edc is the GX4. Trust it with my life
I bought the G2c because I wanted an inexpensive gun I can leave in my car, when at the bar, incase it gets stollen, because that's how gun control works🤨
Hell yeah bro. Bought my teen sister a g2 a few years back for 190 and it was great for a learner pistol/range weapon.
@@melissasmess2773 You mean in a lock box…? Nice and responsible…
My top 3 that I am currently rotating are, SW MP Shield +, Hellcat Pro, and as of about three months ago Canik METE MC9. My wife packs her Ruger LCP Max 380 or her Beretta APXA1 Carry or sometimes my Ruger Max 9. All good guns. Keep up the good work and the reviews! ABC! 🇺🇸
Can’t beat the Canik! Especially for the price. One of the best striker-fire triggers at any price, let alone
Excellent video. Several outstanding handguns on the list. The Ruger LCRx (with exposed hammer) shown in the video is a variation of the LCR. Both are very good wheel guns and the LCR (enclosed hammer) might be a better choice for a carry gun. Keep up the good work.
Between you and my brother, I had to own a Canik, and I have to say I am not let down at all. They're incredible firearms for the $
Yes sir I have 9 never let me down also
I always watch your reviews to help me make my decisions on guns I own or want to purchase. I definately agree with your number 1. I also have the SC Elite and it feels great, extremely accurate out of the box and extremely great trigger. Love your vids Outlaw keep up with these awesome vids
The 365 is a very solid choice.
I ended up getting a M&P Shield Performance Center. Been very impressed with it. Thanks for this video and others i wanted to get something reliable for the money and you helped me decide.
I'm so glad 3 guns I own made the list 😁 What surprised me most is how often I carry my LCP Max. It's perfect for the AZ heat and it serves primarily as my gym carry when I wear my hootchie short shorts.
Bro like you I have been blessed with a great arsenal and out of my collection of very good very expensive weapons my 24/7 companion is my TP9 ELITE sc !!! It is with me always!!!! Great review!!! As always!!!
The 4” performance center shield plus is criminally slept on.
It’s similar in size to the p365xl, which if anything is even more popular than the original p365, but yet for some weird reason it doesn’t get as much love as the normal shield plus.
I think it’d be much more popular if S&W marketed it more but I guess at the same time I kind of like having something that’s more uncommon and unique. It really is a hidden gem.
I like the longer barrel, not a fan of the bigger grip.
@@kellym3531 The grip is the same size though
I'd like the longer barrel....BUT...orange should not be in the rear visually distracting you. Also same exact size Arex Delta holds more so there is that.
shit you've convinced me. picking one up from brownells
@@DanTheWolfman
Are you referring to the orange/red fiber optic sights?
I don’t mind them but I personally switched them out for black inserts.
So mine is just blacked out rears with a green front fiber optic. Super easy to do.
Also, I’m a huge arex fan myself and I think they’re criminally under appreciated.
But even still it’s hard to compare them as far as proven reliability and track record go. The shield plus is also much more versatile with its ability to take the smaller 10 round magazine for easier concealment.
Not to mention Smith released that new 15 round magazine, and with magguts you can bump your 13 rounder up to 15 as well. So there isn’t really a big difference in capacity.
On a side note I also have a American founded and made bias too admittedly.
But hey if you love your arex delta M then fair enough brother. They make great guns and I respect the hell out of them.
I've been shooting a 9mm Canik TP9SA for around 5 years now and it's so much better than all of the more popular 9mm options (and people haven't even heard of it most of the time).
I never thought I would own a striker fired pistol. The CZ P-10 S is my EDC (with some mods). My 1911A1 and my Kimber Micro 9 are backup...my CZ Shadow 2 is being ignored until I can get some competition training. Great video. Peace Outlaw!
I bought the Canik TP9 Elite SC because of your review a couple year ago and owe you a sincere thank you. It's my first pistol and I love it.
My current carry gun is a Sig P365-380.The grip is a bit small so I got a Wilson Combat grip module which fills my hand a bit better. The pistol is fairly light, but not so light that it's unpleasant to shoot like a lot of other micro-380s, and I feel extremely confident with it. During the colder months I have an HK VP9SK that is easier for me to conceal with heavier clothing. And I feel I need the extra umph of 9mm during the winter to get penetration thru heavier clothing if that situation arises.
I've been eyeing the p365-380. Looks like a pleasant low recoil shooter with still enough just enough capacity, reliability, and lethality. Only downside I've heard is less forgiving with bad grip which can cause malfunctions.
Just got a tp9 elite sc a month ago, have put well over 1000 rounds through it with no issues, I absolutely love it.
CZ P10C has been phenomenal. 1000s of rounds in it and not a single issue. The only reason I couldn't recommend it as #1 is at the time of purchasing mine there was no optics ready models. I am planning on getting the slide milled eventually as I already have the optic for it.
I also wanted a optics ready p10 couldn’t get it so got mine milled from jagerwerks awesome gun for sure
I carry a P10s. Feels great in my hand just like the P10c. I've tried many micro 9s and keep coming back to the subcompacts (P10s & M&P 2.0) Plus, you can carry a 19 or 17 round backup mag.
Agree. Nothing like subcompact 9mm pistols. Glock 26 . Smith& Wesson m&p 2.0 sub. FN 509c.
I have the P365XL, love it, but frequently carry the GX4 instead. It fits in a cargo pocket better. I also have the LCP Max and it gets a lot of carry time too. My revolver choices are a 856UL and a 5 shot Charter 357 snubbie. I had a P320 SC, but it felt like a brick to conceal. Its almost the exact size of the Canik TP9SC, so I passed up the Canik. There's nothing wrong with a G3C, I owned one. But I think the GX4 would be a better choice.
Glad to see the G3C on the list. One of the three EDC in my rotation along with Glock 43X and S&W M&P 40c. I've added 15 round mags, Talon grip tape, and tritium front sight.
Another great video Honest Outlaw!
My favorite 2 this year are the Shield Plus (especially after the new S&W pricing) if you are looking for a concealed carry option and the Beretta APX A1 Full size if you want a larger pistol. The Shield Plus is 4 benjys and the optics ready version (also includes night sights) for 4.5 benjys. It's tiny, extremely shootable for its size, has excellent grip texture, the grip swells out to fit my hands, has the best trigger in its category, and has excellent capacity.
The APX A1 Full size can be had for 379-429 (479 max if you don't feel like looking for a deal) and it has so many improvements over the original APX Full size. It has a deeper grip and beavertail area to really get under the gun, comes optics ready, has night sights, better ergonomics, lack of finger grooves, slightly better trigger (still meh though unless you are used to Glocks triggers), better slide serrations, double trigger undercut, new recoil spring that should theoretically last longer, better checkering on the grip and frame, and supposedly the finish is more durable. At that price it's cheaper than the original RDO APX if you want an optics ready pistol but it comes with more improvements.
If you are willing to spend a little more the Walther PDP and Sig P365 XMacro are excellent guns for the cost.
Nice descriptions! You highlighted my two favorites from this list. Mr. Outlaw might be a bit misinformed WRT the APX A1 for which there are basically no holsters available (no compatibility between the original and the A1).
Your channel has become a go to for me. My bad for taking so long to hit the subscribe button. I have a macro and a 365x. I even have sig 210c. But lately I have been carrying my 1911 a lot. Sometimes you just want to carry a .45. Came across a SDS Tisas carry in .45 at my local shop. Wanted to get your thoughts on that company. My full size is a kimber custom 2 (two tone). Keep up the good work.
My previous LCPII has been replaced by the LCP Max. Slightly larger in the pocket, but much more shootable!
I kept my LCPII and got a P365-380 to go along with it. The Rugers are great for their light weight.
I love my G3C. I’ve shot thousands of rounds through it. All kinds, silver tips, MHP, expensive and cheap rounds. Not a single malfunction yet.
Love my Canik TC Elite with the Shield SMS. Amazing for the price. Never had an issue at the range! Love your top ten list. Thanks again for all your reviews
I’m carrying a 43x and I’m surprised it didn’t make the list. Oh but the caniks are insane for the money.
Been waiting on this one. Keep it up outlaw
Honest Outlaw is the reason I got a P07 and P10C... the g3 full size looks pretty inviting though.
I absolutely love my canik tp9 sc. The 15 rd mag is perfect for my big ass hands. Only downside, the mags are freakin' expensive and usually out of stock. The 12 rounder works, but it's got a bit of pinky hangover. Great list, man. I'm gonna have to try some of these.
Check grab a gun. They have had 15 and 17 rounders for sale for the elite sc.
@@Bob_Bob_B0b Buy some MA903 15rd NOW!!! They've been out-of-stock for 2yrs and are recently off the canik-usa website.
@@stevealexander8010 for the elite sc?
I can’t find 10 round mags for my TP9 Elite SC. Been looking for 6 months. (My state banned standard cap. mags.)
Same, I liked the 12 but i feel the 15 fits my hand better.
I currently have #10, #5 and #1 in my arsenal, but I'm not opposed to expanding on my weaponry. Thanks for the shopping 🛒 list.
Very happy to see cz p10 and SIG 365 on the list. Two of my favorites personally.
Where was the P10 on this list?
Nice I kinda skipped through this and picked up later. Glad to see it on there as well!!
Thanx I really appreciate the thoroughness of this video
The CZP10F is 19 plus 1 and Smith and Wesson just lowered the msrp of the Shield plus.
Thank goodness you can get the majority of these guns here in South Africa. Canik even has their own dedicated website for us
This popped up as I was looking for a video to watch, nice
My Taurus G2C with the Keep Tinkering trigger job and a 15 round mag is one of the most comfortable guns to carry and shoot I’ve used.
I just bought CZ P01. It's a great pistol: light, shoots well, etc. Slightly pricier than rest of the guns on this list.
You will absolutely love the P01 it's my EDC due to the reliability 👊😎👉🏼💨 it always goes bang
CZ P-01 is my EDC. Outstanding 9mm hammer fired. You could buy 3 Taurus for what the P-01 costs, but my life is worth the CZ quality. !
I just bought one too. I thought it would feel cheap after my USP 45, but it's very well made. Love the ergonomics
Bought the LCP Max for my birthday as a “walk to the mailbox gun” and ended up loving the little thing whenever I’m wearing shorts or sweats, especially in the summer.
BERSA TPR9C is under rated. Argentina masterpiece with a trigger that is arguably better than a majority of out of the box pistols. Oh and only $400
I like Bersa too. A good gun on the cheap.
A little heavy for EDC?
Nice gun but hard to find these days!
@@tillman40 heavier but extremely light for a metal frame and very controllable recoil. 13+1 but exact same dimensions as my Glock 26 with a Gen 5 12+1 mag
@@tillman40 Yes. It's not a lightweight. It's just a good reliable gun that's different from others.
Your channel never stops entertaining. Thank you for supporting all the children who are less fortunate.
Do you think you will do this list also for shotguns, sub gun , AR15, bolt action hunting rifles and pocket knives?
I have the Canik TP9SFX and love it. I thought the SC was #1 last year and I was wondering the whole time if it completely dropped off the list or stayed at the top. Probably need to grab one😃
Great video!
Just don't understand why the Taurus G3C it's on the list instead of the GX4 T.O.R.O.
I had a G2C as a carry weapon(had some issues), and when I change it, the G3C didn't even cross my mind, I went straight to the GX4, 350rds and zero malfunctions so far.
Great reviews...you do the best of them all. I agree wholeheartedly with your choice of the Canik as #1. Old school 1911, Sig 220 series for decades until I experienced this model of Canik. Just superb out of the box...tried to stove pipe etc. with different loads/ brands out of same magazine without a hiccup over a 1000 rounds. Easy to field strip. This old dog got taught a new trick with a Canik...now have several models, all unbelievably superb regardless of price but the price makes you feel like you're getting something over on somebody.
I got my shield plus for 350 bucks brand new. Came with 2 ten round mags and 1 13rd. I've carried Walthers, sigs, glocks but for the money the shield plus is BY FAR your best option!
Another great review! One option I've been considering is the IWI Masada S. Then again, I love my Jerichos, so I am a fan of IWI. The P30SK, while a little thick, is likely my favorite, but not inexpensive.
Mind blown. I called the P-07 as his number one before ever clicking the video. Was dead sure it was his number one the whole way through, then about got the wind knocked out of me.
Guess I've got some guns to go shoot now.
Thanks Chris, love the videos!
Any shred of consistency from this channel? You must be out of your mind.
As a CZ fan boy, I’m hurt that it’s not at least in the top 5😢
I have both the G3C and the LCP Max So I was happy to see them included in your. Both of them have been accurate and reliable for me .
I believe the LCP Max is actually a hammer fired pistol not a striker fired pistol. Just the size of the LCP Maxx makes it like you said an ideal gun just a slip in your pocket take with you as you're out and about or if you're looking for a car gun it would fit the bill for that too.
Over the years the 380 has kind of been frowned upon as a wimpy round but there are actually some pretty good 380 rounds out there right now
The small diminutive size of the LCP Max takes a little bit to get used to but once you do it's really comfortable to handle and shoot.
I bought the Canik tps9elite sc because of your recommendations. I knew you wouldn't lie about it or disappointe me and believe me you did not Chris. That pistol will do everything you said it would and dollar for dollar it's damn hard to beat it in this economy. Thank-you so much love the Canik tp9 elite SC.
You're still my favorite gun channel. Keep up the good work.
I'd like to add the G43X MOS
My current EDC.
You need to put out a Top 5 list of TH-cam reviewers that can provide the general public with firearm purchases that are reliable, accurate and don't break the bank. Please add the Honest Outlaw to the first 4 names and on the the 5th spot refer to first 4 names on the list.
Bersa Bp9cc should be somewhere on this list at least over the taurus G3C
Owned #1 since the summer ... amazing
Loving your content, and I'm also in the sticks of northeast iowa! Been carrying the Canik tp9 elite sc the last 3 years, and I'm looking forward to carrying the shield or hellcat Instead. The tp9 elite sc is twice the weight of all the others on the list and 1.5x the thickness. It's made for combat and owb carrying; not for iwb cc (imo).
The Glaring Miss as Best buy for the Money are the Thin/Light/Most Efficient Wt/Capacity Arex Delta and Delta Gen 2 which I have reviewed both.
Always quality content!
Any chance you'd be willing to do a top 5 list on 45 acp pistols in the future? I'd like to add something other than 9mms to the collection in the future and your experience and opinions are incredibly helpful in narrowing things down!
Quad Citizen here..I currently don’t have any firearms but I’m looking to only buy one. Just one lol. I figured it might as well get one that can also be used to concealed carry. So with all that being said, since it’ll just have the one gun in not too worried about the cost. Additional info, for what it’s worth, I have smaller hands. Thanks so much love your videos, the best on YT!
Praise worthy, for $70!The only issue was the round gasket ring seal between the CO2 and needle th-cam.com/users/postUgkxnX9wE_Q8zvF75Y5iWzTU3Q4FlrtyGApQ . Withered away, and I'm having a tough time finding a replacement.Gun still works perfectly, but needs a new gasket. Can someone please say where to find the gasket replacement?
Great video! I bought my Taurus g2c about a year or two ago just to try out the 2nd strike capability and actually fell in love with it. Great for laser training and picked it up on PSA for 180 bones.... Great little pistol
I’m a huge fan of the Honest Outlaw and I really appreciate the way he drill down into feature, function and value of the items.
Thank you Sir for confirming my gut instinct when I purchased the TP9 SC 7 months ago. You are the best gun reviewer on TH-cam. Not even close. No B.S and I respect that. I just put the Holosun 507K on it. The 2nd trip to the range w the dot and I’m kind of shocked at how accurate it is. It’s rivaling my TP9 Elite Combat ( with the Red Dot). I Love My American made guns, but damn the Turks are making some great stuff
I don’t want to see any other reviews but yours to be honest 💯
Love this list. You bookended with two of my faves the G3C and the Elite SC. If you had included the MC2C I’d think you were spying on me. 😂
I just purchased a canik tp9 elite sc and i dont think i ill ever carry a different gun again. Since i bought it, it has been glued to my hip lol. I cannot recommend it enough!
I had purchased my 1st 2nd and 3rd carry guns based on Honest Outlaw's reviews and recommendations and I can't be happier. My Taurus, shield plus and SC Elite are my go to CCW
Me too, friend.
I have the Walther and the Canik, and they are both phenomenal guns. Their triggers are exceptional.
Always appreciate your reviews!!
I would take a G3C over a SCCY anytime.
I have a P365XL for carry and later got a Canik Mete SFX for home defense. I love my Sig but after owning the Canik I kinda wish I had gotten the TP9 Elite SC for carry because that trigger is amazing.
Great video! Mossberg MC2 SC. 14+1 is my choice and I have very big hands. It's durable, reliable, slim, comfortable, doesn't break the bank and a great shooter that is optic ready! Love mine with a Riton red dot!
I have the MC1 version so 6 or 7 rounds plus one I had to put trigger spring kit in it because before that it sucked for pulling the trigger but now it's a good little gun it's very concealable I don't carry it anymore I still have it but I got the hellcat pro which is also pretty easy to conceal it needs a trigger kit too
I just bought a hellcat. Unfortunately the dealer didn't have the hellcat pro in stock at the time so I bought the standard hellcat. No complaints so far
Man I don't even own a gun, but the information, delivery, filmography, and marksmanship here are all championship level 😮
You should own a gun. Everyone should (who are mentally sound and not criminals)
i bought a canik tp9da last year, while its not optic ready it performs incredibly and is easy to maintain and dissassemble for cleaning, for 300 bucks it has been the best money ive spent on a firearm. im also a softy for a snazzy bronze color
I got a Canik TP9 SC back in October and my only complaint I have with it so far is I've just not had enough time to put more rounds down range with it. I'm extremely picky when it comes to handguns because it's a far more personal choice than a shotgun or a rifle with how well it fits your hands and how the overall feel is, and when I discovered how important grip indents were for index shooting for me, the Canik TP9 SC just felt like a natural fit. The trigger is so nice I find that I actually have to remind myself to slow down to not piss off the RSOs at indoor ranges. At some point I absolutely want to get a real fullsized Walther in 9mm, but I doubt I'll ever be able to bring myself to get rid of my TP9 no matter how gucci my personal collection gets to be.
Walther PDP 4’ compact is my carry gun. Great gun.
You need to try a M&P9 Compact 2.0 with the 3.6" barrel. It is a Glock 26 slide with Glock 19 grip and 15 round capacity. Flies below the radar for a concealed carry rig.
Had to replay the shock after hitting the target with the .380 ruger such a funny reaction 😂
