Nice pickup! So the G23 can take 9mm, & 357 Sig conversion barrels. I have the G23 with 9mm & 357 Sig. so 3 calibers in 1 pistol! I subscribed, I support small gun tubers. Stay blessed!
That’s why I love the G32 and G23 they’re the most versatile firearms in my collection! I was going to just do a barrel swap with the 32 but I wanted to build my collection so🤷🏾♂️ thanks for the support more videos coming! You stay blessed as well!
Is 9mm equal to or superior to 357 Sig? Let’s think about that for ourselves for just a moment, shall we? I get it that some people pick a side and feel the need to defend their choice, but not to the extent of regurgitating pure nonsense that they themselves were misinformed on. Some ammo manufacturers actually have loads that even surpasses the ballistics of traditional 357 magnum performance. Underwood's 357 SIG Gold Dot for example. Also because it’s a bottleneck cartridge it has the added benefit of feeding more reliably than other pistol rounds. It’s flat shooting and will punch through auto glass like it was butter. It’s literally a 9mm projectile “except” because it’s 225-300 fps faster it penetrates most barriers as well as 10mm yet doesn’t over penetrate flesh, which is welcomed to aid in avoiding collateral damage. It has a flatter trajectory that in turn makes it more accurate and potent at distance. Though the penetration is no greater than 9mm in flesh, the cavity damage is much more devastating making it more likely to stop a threat with less shots. 357 Sig Compact and Subcompact firearms actually have more energy than an equivalent sized barrel length 10mm. Even out of as much as a 4” barrel, Underwood 125gr 357 Sig has the energy that’s equal to or greater than most 10mm loads with the exception of a few specialty loads. Basically 10mm energy only surpasses 357 Sig out of longer full size barrel lengths. Underwood has a 357 Sig 65g Xtreme Penetrator round that exceeds 2250+ fps out of just a 6” barrel. I don’t know of any other semiautomatic pistol caliber that has rounds capable of such velocities from a handgun. It goes straight through a 3A panel even. At those velocities normally temporary cavities tear. One of the most attractive benefits of owning a 357 Sig is the ability to convert the firearm to 40 S&W & 9mm with nothing more than a simple barrel swap. You also normally can do a 357 Sig or 9mm conversion if you own a 40 S&W firearm as well. That means you can train on whatever platform you’re most comfortable with and whatever ammo is the most affordable, and no it isn’t always 9mm. That means that you are less hindered by ammo shortages… and when you’re done training simply swap out the barrel and ammo back to 357SIG and you’re all set. Sadly on a native 9mm firearm you don’t have any option to do a conversion. I never understood what’s not to like about 357 SIG… well other than ammunition availability and cost being the only negatives I guess, but it is the better round. Keep in mind that when you compare 9mm +P or +P+ to try to achieve 357 Sig performance, 357 Sig is actually cheaper than 9mm. When I searched +P+ to get as close to 357 Sig performance as possible, it was more expensive than a standard 357 Sig JHP round. 9mm +P+ is still only 1300 fps in 124 grain. That’s 50 fps slower than the lowest end 125 grain Sig round at 1350 fps and we’re comparing +P+ 9mm ammo here. Yet the bare minimum 357 Sig performance isn’t even achievable and this is usually attempted in a platform that isn’t even recommended for +P+ or even +P at times. I say it’s best to swap to a 9mm conversion barrel when training and back to 357 Sig right before you’re all done to finish up with 357 to cut that expense down. In most cases the recoil of any superior round can be overcome with training. I actually have little to no recoil on one of my setups. It’s compensated. You’ll find that comps actually provide greater compensation with 357 Sig compared to 9mm because of the higher pressures. I do understand that some people are recoil sensitive and are more comfortable with 9mm or other lower recoiling rounds. I understand some just prefer the thought of higher capacity. I totally understand your decisions. But let’s not bash any superior round because you prematurely decided on a specific one. Naturally shot placement, especially with pistol calibers is key… but under pressure understandably, your shot placement could be lacking. With that in mind the welcomed advantages of 357 Sig could easily make the difference between life and death, shot placement aside. There’s nothing wrong with 9mm it’s awesome, but let’s be clear… it isn’t equal to 357 Sig and the few extra rounds it’s capable of holding in a magazine over 357 Sig definitely doesn’t make it the superior choice. In time I expect 357 Sig to make the comeback that 10mm has made in recent years… For myself these 357 Sig advantages make 9mm less desirable. How about for you?
Great comment!! Although there might be some rounds that are superior to 357 sig it’s still my favorite round. Overall it’s a great round that packs hell of a punch without too much recoil. I’ve trained with this round for 2 years, which is my EDC present day. Might look into buying a 45 acp next more videos on the way for sure!! Thanks for this comment my guy!
357 sig is king I have the g31 and 32 357 sig is the best put of them all 9mm 40 and 45 357 sig even out perform some 10mm 10mm is watered down unless you have underwood full power ammo
I appreciate yo support bro fr💯 if you ever wanna collab or anything lmk! We both from the same city so im behind you fashoo! Been tryna stay consistent life just be hitting
Nice pickup!
So the G23 can take 9mm, & 357 Sig conversion barrels.
I have the G23 with 9mm & 357 Sig.
so 3 calibers in 1 pistol!
I subscribed, I support small gun tubers. Stay blessed!

Definitely subscribed to you!
@@Mr.threefiveseven I appreciate you! 🫡✊🏾
I just came from your 2023 collection video after looking up 32 vs 23 and was surprised to see the same dude!
G23🔥 all day everyday🦾💯

You just earned a new supporter definitely subbed!
💪🏾💪🏾
💪🏾
I gat the 32 gen 4 too man i love it fr fr its really a versatile round its powerful but not slow like the 45 acp
Nahh fr forever gone hold the top spot outta all pistols💯
357 sig is king I have the g31 and 32 357 sig is the best put of them all 9mm 40 and 45 357 sig even out perform some 10mm 10mm is watered down unless you have underwood full power ammo
Didn't know you were from the city bro.... All the people I'm subscribed to on the Tube, you and Trucker Brown are the only two from the city so far..
I appreciate yo support bro fr💯 if you ever wanna collab or anything lmk! We both from the same city so im behind you fashoo! Been tryna stay consistent life just be hitting
I luv my Glock 23 🫡🫡🫡
