I am a 75 y/o man who has been shooting since I was 12 y/o and read alot about self defence and home defence. I think you have made an outstanding video and agree with everything you have said.
it be Honest, i think the PS90/P90 Would be a better fire arm for home defense than the Kriss Vector. Simply Because the P90 shoots the 5.7 by 28mm Cartridge, of which explodes/ expands on impact. however i'm not a gun genius.
I live in the NYC area and all of these weapons are illegal. Once, someone broke into my house so I had to grab a chef's knife from the kitchen. Afterwards the police came (around a half-hour later) and tried to take me in because I had the knife. I am dead serious.
I actually want these guys to do a "Top 5 Guns for NYC" video. That would be a REAL challenge. They'd probably only come up with 3D printed guns and flintlocks. Lol.
I love this channel... I used to be very anti-gun until something happened in my community (aurora movie theater shooting). It was specifically targeted because the theater had a no firearms rule yet there was three people who had conceal and carry licenses. Think of all the lives that could have been saved... Mankind is an unpredictable species and it is why we must always be ready to defend ourselves and loved ones. Thank you
Orange Kurushhh i used to hate guns like aks and ar-15s and such but in the last year I realized that they have loads of usefulness and wil probably get one nyself
Your post makes no sense. First of all, you became a gunner after a mass shooting in your town...but that sounds kinda strange, no? Second, you forgot about the retired sheriff in Florida who shot dead a 40-year old father out on date night with his wife at a movie theater. Allegedly the two men had an argument over a cellphone and the old duffer shot the father because the guy threw a bag popcorn at "the good guy". Which just goes to show maybe the old man should have left his pistol at home (the news at the time reported the wife even asked the old man to leave the gun at home, but of course he couldn't). Third, all a CCW does is grant a privilege to a gun owner, it doesn't mean he or she is competent to use it, so it is an ASSUMPTION on your part any lives could have been saved at all. And lastly YOU WEREN'T THERE so all you can do is speculate the shoulda, coulda, woulda just like our Braveheart "all hat, no cattle" pResident, Donald Trump.
tripperdoo some people shouldn't be driving either because 1. Hot tempered (road rage) 2. Not very skilled(easily involved in accidents 3. Can't do it without driving or texting etc That being said you don't ban guns because of some who are incompetent; there are laws who deal with those are negligent or incompetent. Life is and will never be a utopia; it's imperfect and dangerous and unfair. You don't take away people's freedoms. I would risk living a shorter life with more freedoms than live a longer life with fewer freedoms.
tripperdoo incidentally the mayor of London is considering banning knives now because the murder rate in London is approaching new York city. Remember the problem isn't the object in question like a gun or knife but the individuals morality, state of mind, or values. We need to ask, "what happened to morality?"
@@juancarlosplacencia Oh yeah I would like to have a Beretta 92fs. I would actually prefer that now over any Glock. I used to think Glocks were the best.
I've always wanted to go to London and empty a box of 22's on the sidewalk. Just to see London's swat team and half their fire dept. show up. Yes I am a devious falker. In all honesty I do feel sorry for your inability to defend yourselves.
We have experienced a massive victory here in Canada recently. It used to be that you could only defend your home with equal or lesser force as the intruder. We can now legally kill any intruder into our home, not necessarily your property but within your walls. The official law is that you can kill anyone who threatens your life but the supreme court of Canada has said that any intruder can be legally determined to pose a direct threat to your life, even if they are not armed. It truly is a good day.
I'm sorry, I just have to ask, why would you want to actually KILL someone though? I understand that being legally allowed to kill someone takes some of the worry out of shooting at them in the first place, because you don't have to think "I might hit them somewhere vulnerable, they could die and I'll have committed a crime", but the way you said that makes me think you WANT to kill them. Just a disclaimer, I'm not looking to have an argument, nor am I against guns, and am quite fond of most weapons. I just don't understand why it's so good to be allowed to kill someone. Especially a person who is unarmed.
I'm absolutely not excited to kill someone. It's just that in Canada we've for too long not been able to defend ourselves at all. My excitement comes from the gaining of more of our lost freedom. I'd be a happy man if no one ever broke into my home and I never had to shoot anyone. Also, my plan is keeping a less lethal round as the first one to be shot so that I can avoid killing someone. I'm just happy the option is open to defend myself is available without fear of prosecution.
Connor Smith it bothers me greatly that somebody would celebrate the ability to slaughter unarmed human beings for the simple crime of intruding. truly revolting.
The second you break into my house, since you've taken my right to feel safe in my own home, you've given up your right to live without buckshot holes.
So many people argue on these sites, and the arguments seem futile to me. If you like guns, simply move to where they are legal, the community supports them, and even encourages them. If you don't like guns, simply move to where they are banned and discouraged by the community. Why shouldn't people have the freedom to choose?
In my opinion, a revolver is best for immediate action, an automatic pistol is called for when you have to go looking for those that wish you harm. Ive only had one confrontation in which I used a revolver to protect myself, the perp was shot off my back with a S&W .38 cal . He made it to the hospital in time to live. He was sentenced to 3 yrs in prison. One confrontation in 70 yrs is pretty good in my book. I still carry a hamerless .38 cal S&W wherever I go. I'm not afraid, just cautious. Good luck all.
Michael Knowles dude I had a tactical shotgun and pump and one time a dude shot down my structure and I trampolines to them and tac gunned them and then switched to the pump and it did 9 damage and I died😔 so unfair
@@mannyescuela3511 Dumbass, how the fuck did you assume he was talking about Fagnite? He's talking about a legit scenario where a real .38 cal bullet entered a real human being in an attempt to stop an attack. And here you come trying to one-up him talking about fucking Fortnite. You kids make me Fucking sick.
I agree Michael, I have a lot of the weapons mentioned in the video and at 6'3" and 275 lbs a 12 ga. is fine for me but a Mossberg 500 with 10 rounds of buckshot and a 5 round side saddle is to much for my wife, she couldn't even swing it. Your best home defense weapon IMHO is a 38/357 revolver, good cover, a cell phone and the attitude to pull the trigger if needed. Once your in position and have a choke point covered and hit 911 you drop the hammer on anything in that doorway or hall that doesn't belong there. You don't go looking for a fight, let it come to you, most aholes doing a B&E aren't looking for a firefight anyhow and the last thing you need to be doing is racking slides and fumbling with safety's.
+Michael Mathes you dont have to worry because as far as i know, so long as you use what you consider reasonable force, for example a shot in the leg to wound but not to kill, you will not get convicted of anything. plus those guns are good to threaten the thief off with so you dont have to shoot.
I have a Ruger Speed 6 .38 Special that I practice with regularly. I still think its the best option. No safeties to worry about, nice size round with a punch from a small revolver. Some things dont change.
I actually have a desert eagle in .44 magnum for home defense currently, I got a CZ 75 recently but haven’t had a chance to test it so I personally can not say it works (although I’m sure it does) but I know for a fact my desert eagle doesn’t jam (despite what lots of people say online, it’s the Mk Is and the Mk VIIs That Jam, the magnum research Mk XIXs work perfectly from my experience)
@Mike Fu Not to mention the muzzle flash in the dark inside your house will blind you with the effectiveness of a flashbang grenade. I won't even bring up overpenetration. Yikes!
A sad thing about Brazil: Only bad guys can use guns here, you foreign people have no idea how burocratic and expensive could be to legally have a simple revolver.
Por outro lado nos temos absolutamente nenhum regulamento sobre facas, entao nao seria uma ideia ruim carregar um canivete no bolso se vc vive em uma area perigosa.
Leonardo Marques Se você faz isso e é abordado pela PM corre o risco de levar tapas e ser taxado de bandido em potencial por portar armas brancas, até mesmo um bastão tático é perigoso eles ''confiscarem'' de você.
***** Cara para de ser idiota bandido pega arma numa banca de aluguel em qualquer morro, bandido compra um oitão por 700 reais ou menos. Só a pessoa de bem que se fode com isso e não pode andar certinho.
***** Com o controle correto, tanto físico quanto psicológico, de antecedentes, de preparo e treino de qualidade para a sociedade, não haveria problemas. Uma pessoa sã bem preparada não representa perigo, somente uma segurança para a própria sociedade, pois o bandido não saberia quem tem ou não arma, o fator medo ia faze-lo pensar. Uma pessoa apta e de bem que estivesse autorizada a carregar uma arma não a sacaria e usaria para nada. Mas, admito que muita coisa tem que mudar no Brasil antes, pois muitas pessoas que não atendem os requisitos iam conseguir por meios ilícitos o porte, e a lei parece que foi feita para proteger os bandidos. E só reforçando o que já foi dito, bandido NUNCA comprou nem vai comprar arma em loja e com número de série dentro da lei.
***** Você se arriscaria a apontar uma arma de choque, spray de pimenta para um bandido com um 32, 38 que seja na mão? Hahaha acredito que não. Eu não, porque sei que ele não vai atirar para me debilitar. Exames psicológicos, antecedentes criminais, antecedentes de familiares, grau de escolaridade, registros médicos e mais muitas coisas podem ser analisadas e repito uma pessoa BEM preparada e apta, para ter o porte exames e treino periodicamente, e exames sem datas programadas para as pessoas não terem como se preparar com antecedência. Já fui assaltado mais de uma vez e UM cidadão armado teria rendido os bandidos mesmo sem matar. Com a legalização os ladões iriam ter medo não nós população de bem. Nós estaríamos aptos a nos defender também.
Thank you for mentioning that in countries besides the U.S. self-defence is prohibited and is punishable by law. A story from CANADA for you folks -- restaurant owner, closing hours, cleaning up with a broom. Hears window broken, goes to screen to investigate (has CCTV cameras installed). Sees intruder. Goes to confront the intruder. Beats the intruder up with a broom. All is recorded on security cameras. Police arrive on scene -- arrest both. Intruder gives testimony that the restaurant owner beat him up with a broom. Restaurant owner is charged. Another story from CANADA -- a well known shoplifter in the area goes from store to store and shoplifts stuff. Store owner recognizes the guy, notices him shoplifting stuff, confronts him, chases the shoplifter out of the shop and down the street. Shop owner overpowers the shoplifter, ties him up, drags him back, calls the police. The shop owner is charged with kidnapping of a person and forceful confinement. How do you like that???
tanner fillier Not 15, 5 shot mags for semi-auto rifles or 10 shot mags for pistols that can only be transported locked and unloaded to and from authorized gun ranges -- that's it.
AIDS_IS_VERY_BAD You must account for the population size in the U.S. vs. Canada, which 10 times larger in the U.S. than in Canada. Also, criminals don't follow the laws. So, all the legislation does it makes life more difficult for LEGAL owners only. Killing is prohibited by law but those who intend to kill will still do it, regardless of the legislation ;-)
I welded a 50cal machine gun to my bed frame so if I hear a bump in the night I sit up grab hold and level half my house down. and if any of my family members got in the way that is their fault for not ducking fast enough.
+Commissar Gamza Good idea m8! The only thing though is i used my welded 50cal MG to the bedframe and it wasn't enough firepower for home defense. I now use a MK-19 Fully automatic belt fed gernade launcher welded to my bedframe and its enough firepower
ive contacted pentagon not long ago and managed to make a deal with them, now i have a railgun welded to my bed frame that can shoot multiple projectiles so fast that it pierces through everything in 5 km radius
I remember when I thought someone broke into my house, took the police about an hour to make it. Never again will I put my life in the hands of the police.
Please don’t break in my house. I am well protected and can access a 357 Revolver, XD 45 and a 12 Gauge Tactical in a matter of seconds. I suggest getting a job or improving your life’s potential before I end it!
Mayur Gangawane Not all women are worried about "appearing " stronger than they are. My wife seriously does not like the recoil of shotguns and pistols of 9mm or bigger. She is barely 5" tall. That doesn't make her a wimp, it just makes her realistic about what she is comfortable with. Trust me, in an emergency situation she WILL fill your happy ass full of buck shot. She just will not enjoy doing it.
Just today I purchased the S&W Governor for House Defense and carry both concealed and open. It’s a great firearm, feels like quality in the hand and shoots like a beast at personal defense distances.
I feel bad for those living in the USA. It's so sad that people feel they need guns in their home to protect themselves. I feel sorry for you because you live in fear.
i do feel bad for people in countries that cannot defend themselves. that is probably why countries are so bold to invade other countries. try that here and there is a guarantee they see how defense of freedom feels. Freedom is to die for.
Isn't America doing most of the invading? Probably has something to do with all of you thinking you're tough guys who can defend themselves against the non-existent enemies coming for you. Get a grip on reality nobody cares enough about you to require defending against. Also, read a book your grammar is awful.
When was the last time England was invaded? Or Europe? Hint: Fighting Nazis. Think a gun woulda helped Anne Frank? Think again soldier. There's a reason most folks don't support the NRA...they have brains instead!
Because so many people have an opinion (i.e. know for an absolute fact!!!) what the best home defense guns are. Which rarely agrees with the opinions (i.e. crazed babblings of brain-dead pudroaches) of anyone else. So in a respectful display of honest disagreement they click the dislike button (as there's no "pure and utter contempt" button).
Always believed in revolvers over semis for simplicity and reliability. When you're awoken in the middle of the night and in a groggy state you don't want to be thinking about whether you have a round in the chamber or is the safety on or off. Just grab your revolver, point and shoot.
@@JJM-qf8dz it is highly unlikely for decent semi to misfire. Have you considered the cylinder in a revolver jamming due to foreign objects getting into the gaps? I believe a channel has done a mud test where the revolver a model 19 was proven to be unreliable compared to a semi auto
When I was broke as hell all I could afford was a hi point. 45 and a basic 12 gauge.. Quite honestly after running a few hundred rounds through both and becoming familiar with them I felt confident in knowing that I had 2 rock solid reliable forms of self defense.
+Derrick Wade guess what? the lock doesn't matter....your door frame is what matters...and most are not steel frame but plain ol' crappy 2x4 pine..with two little screws holding in the dead bolt catch. Miley Cyrus could kick it in. I know...I had a guy break into my house when I was gone. They caught him later and he wore size 29 waist jeans and weighed 147 lbs. He easily kicked the door open.
+Derrick Wade Watch the videos of guys easily circumventing a "lock". Locks are for keys, but won't protect your family. Just sayin. God Bless the USA.
In Nj we have a 10 round mag limit and a hollowpoint is problematically legal so I use a 45 acp beretta storm a=carbine in 45 acp. In Nj noshort brreled rifles are legal so the 16 inch srorm carbine is a good choice. Mine has a crimson trace lazer on it. It is set for 40 feet.
Robert Bogan I know, right? Not just price, but you might not be taken seriously by a burglar etc (it looks like a toy) and be forced to shoot him. A 20 gauge shotgun is the best, imo.
Well what if your house is being shot up from outside a shotgun will give you far more power and a slug could take out a engine block say 5 guys in a car open up do you want to use a pistol then? Plus a shotgun despite its size is very versatile birds to Bears is a amzing range for one gun
yajo891 Well, yes. But if you're going to have only 1 weapon for home D, I'd go with a 20 gauge. I, personally, have most of my weapons loaded in my house & car. By my bed, on a small bookcase right beside it, I have my CZ P-07 in 9mm (this is also my carry weapon). There is a Mossberg 500 in my bedroom closet - loaded and unobstructed by anything. In a drawer by my back door is my Springfield 1911, loaded but not chambered (usually). In my den I have my S&W M&P 15 in an inconspicuous place, loaded and chambered. In my car's console is my S&W 642, loaded (so in my car I will usually have both my carry CZ AND my trusty .38). To quote the great philosopher, Mr. T, "I pity the fool!"
Honestly I've become a huge fan of the Mossberg Shockwave - which I originally bought as a joke. Once you get used to it you can smack clays out of the air like any hunting shotgun.
Haha.Come to europe,in here to buy a tyni handgun you have to go throught hell,lots of paperwork ,lots of inspections,even an exam i got fed up with it somewhere in the middle and decided no to buy a gun.Lucky americans.
Vaidotas Krulikas Yep Silly Billy British Government Banned all Section 1 Firearms after Dunblane and told the British Public that our streets would be safer and look at it now more shootings than ever before. Legit firearms holders were punnished. But the criminals get them easy
Smith and Wesson are nice, if you can afford their prices. I'm just as happy with Taurus, frankly. Mine just happens to be a what like to call a "snub-nose" 6" dual action stainless steel .38 revolver. It's small, user friendly. Not too overpowered but definitely going to drop someone first shot. And it's easily concealable.
I think you meant to say 2 or 3 inch. A 6-inch barrel is certainly not a snubby and (for most folks) not easily concealable. Anyway, glad you found a revolver you like.
Goy Ishah buy a Smith&wesson SD40VE or the 9mm version $365 with 2 magazines and a FULL LIFETIME WARRANTY and transferable if you sell. i have one its a great gun better than a glock
Kriss Vector weapons are very, very expensive, especially with the EOTech red dot sight attached. I would imagine it would be safe to say that this would set you back well over $2000. If you're on a budget, stay away from this one. There are many other fine weapons, for much, much less that will do fine for home defense. I personally use the Glock 21 .45 for home defense and it roughly costs about a third of the price. All in all, a great video though.
majorxdf hell yeah man i got a glock 21 gen 4 with a viridian x5L....i got a $20 bulldog holster cause it has IWB OWB an extra mag holder on it but because the pistol is big an the holster is kinda thick its hard to conceal if i mexican carry im able to hide pistol well but its too dangerous to do...what holster would u recommend for concealed carry on G21? maybe a soft leather one would be thinner id like to get a custom kydex for the light laser combo
And if the bad guy shoots your dog? Or even just hits real hard with a blunt object? I think you were making a joke, but if you weren’t, a dog will not usually be able to stop an armed bad guy
Good video, I like having my Mossberg 500 Cruiser 12 gauge handy. Glad to see your focus on over-penetration when conducting home defense, as I don't think it's a subject that gets enough attention or has enough thought given to it.
Alright, here is a suggestion, FIVE GUNS TO USE IN AN INSURGENCY AGAINST THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE USA. Sorry for the caps but I think it would get someones attention better.
I am a widower and live in the bottom of a 2 family house. I use a 7 shot remington 870 loaded with 2 71/2 lead shot and 5 rounds of 00 buck. I deliberatly use a load that patterns the tightest at 20 feet.
Benjamin Shtark if u empty a mag of training bullets into the assailant it will most likely stop him,unless if he is on something then u can shoot him with lethal bullets in a non lethal spot which may be hard
That type of thinking is why the people are wanting to get rid of the scary looking guns such as the ar-15 rifle. The ar-15 isn't any more lethal than others, it just looks so. The Kriss Vector is a 45 cal gun...now in 9mm too. It is just a different and "scary" looking gun.
Exactly. It is a cool looking 45 or 9mm. I think it is something over 60% of people survive handgun shots, but don't take my word for it...look it up. Please vote Trump people.
I'm 14 years old and sleep with a Glock 23 with a Streamlight TLR-1 next to my bed on my nightstand. My parents say they trust me enough to do so. Loaded with 40 S&W Hornady Critical Duty 175 grains.
Here's how I'd change your list... 1. Shotgun: 12 or 20 gauge with an 18-20" barrel. 2. AR-15 Rifle - light, low recoil, 20-30 rounds, very usable by women and even pre-teens. Light 55-62 grain ammo less likely to over penetrate than other rifle calibers. 3. Scrap the .410/.45 pistol and get the real thing. An S&W Model 25/625 revolver in .45 ACP. More accurate. These are big, heavy guns with very low recoil that can be reloaded in a flash with moon clips. I like Double-Tap's 255 grain .45 Auto-rim revolver cartridges in mine with moon clips loaded with Speer Gold Dot 200 grain JHP. 4. Glock 17/19/21/22/23 or if you have kids and want an external safety, the Beretta 92FS/96. or even a CZ P-01. 5. A high quality 4-inch barreled .38/.357 revolver, like the Smith & Wesson 686 series or a K-Frame .38 (Model 10, 15, 67). These have been effective for generations and while limited in capacity, they have the simple "point and click" interface. Speer's 135 grain Gold Dot ammo is a good match here in either caliber.
The Major Thanks. With kids around it's wise to secure things like chemicals, matches, lighters and weapons out of their curious reach. But sometimes they'll figure things out themselves. That's when you want the additional feature of an external safety. That might give you/them the edge needed to prevent a tragedy. I'm a traditionalist and prefer the 1911's thumb safety or that of the CZ P-01 instead of the Walther/Beretta style. With no kids around the house now, I'm back to using wheelguns as primary. A .38 is generally adequate but the backup is a S&W Model 19 .357 with .357 Gold Dot ammo.
Your choices all look good to me. I use 870 Express Tactical with Tactical Light( note light has a off switch lol) I use Hornady 00 Buck Shot. I also use Glock 21 with Laser/TAC Light. I use Hornady .45ACP Critical Duty+P 220 grain Hollow points/polymer insert/Nickel Case.
I found no difference when I tried it at the Range! Although I only tried it twice because it is so dam expensive. Once in my Glock 21 & Once in my Kimber Tactical Pro II.
I'm sure I will get some backlash for this but I use a .22 Lr for home defense but I do have good reasoning behind it: 1. I live in the middle of no where farm country Ohio if I lived in Cleveland I'd have about 16 glocks lol 2. I really do not want to kill someone but if necessary a .22 can and will kill 3. 9 chances out of 10 if someone breaks in and sees your armed there not gonna ask what caliber it is 4. A .22 will not go through a wall and hit my brother in the next room 5. If necessary my mom and sister who are both very short and small can control the recoil if necessary
+Dunewolf Jr. Gaming Important things to note: (2.) The point is to STOP, not kill someone; (3.) Thieves are notoriously on or needing drugs and often don't care (4.) THIS ONE IS MOST IMPORTANT: Yes, a .22 WILL go thru walls.
Let me see..... I could go through the trouble of getting a special stamp / license, spend $1500 and get an ugly, bulky ass kriss vector.... or go to walmart and get a $289 shotgun..... hmmmmm decisions, decisions...
what is up with this "short barrel rifle" nonsense. gun laws are totally whack I mean you need a special tax stamp for it but not for a pistol which is essentially a short barrel rifle?
Hey,Very good video. I keep a H&K USP 45 with hollow point and a S&W airfreight. 38 with hollow point for answering the door. We are in a whats mine is mine. In the market for a 12 ga.for a spread shot.
Why dont you make a video about the Top 5 Accessorys and Gadgeds for Home Defense? I mean the most important thing is to distinguish between the housebreaker and your family and to be accurate when youre tired.
so federal guard dog bullet is best for glock for home defense? any other bullet suggestion for target practice and home defense? thanks also I in gun range the target aren't moving and you are not nervous (vs a intruder) there is a gap betweeen hitting stationary target in gun range vs home intruder that's moving and maybe more than 1 and you just woke up and nervous. what do you suggest for that?
AR15 with soft lead tip rounds will be easier on the overpenetration and will get the job done. If you have multiple assailants, then a 30 or 40 round magazine will defend you all day. I do have my Glock 19 on hand (still in holster) if it is not in my waistband. If I get up and I am in my PJs, Glock is in hand (in a minimalist holster). Thought is to have something that I can use to fight my way to my rifle.
If you get tired of being accused of being a Glocktard, fanboy, etc. (I've seen enough of your videos to know better) you can always refer to modern, striker, fired, polymer pistols. I know that's a mouthful but to some extent, Glock has come to represent other guns. It's kind of like the CocaCola of guns these days.
Ive been looking into revolvers as a first time gun buy for home defence. (I do have experience with handguns) Recommendations? My reasoning: Low maintenance, Iconic look that any intruder will recognise, but mainly theres no spring to wear down if not in use. Id rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it (working).
Trust no 1 Yeah, I would highly recommend a Glock 19 like Eric said, especially if it's his first purchase. It's just as low maintenance, it looks like a Glock, but in a home defense scenario a all the bad guy would see is the muzzle anyway, and you don't need to worry about the spring. Plus you can load 15 rounds in it way faster than you could put 5 or 6 into a revolver.
S&W R8 its expensive but gives you the option to mount a light and optic if you choose. It is an 8 shot .357 magnum that was designed for swat entry teams. even if its not what your looking for check it out it's a cool gun.
hi i'm new to your channeled i never owned a gun but with the shit that's happening in the usa right now thinking it's time to own one and i'm looking at the hk vp 9 for home defence what is your opinion ?
LIKE WHAT YOU SEE? CONSIDER PURCHASING A MAN CAN TO SUPPORT OUR CHANNEL! goo.gl/Vam7yR

I am a 75 y/o man who has been shooting since I was 12 y/o and read alot about self defence and home defence. I think you have made an outstanding video and agree with everything you have said.
it be Honest, i think the PS90/P90 Would be a better fire arm for home defense than the Kriss Vector. Simply Because the P90 shoots the 5.7 by 28mm Cartridge, of which explodes/ expands on impact. however i'm not a gun genius.
what is a man can
mullah amin not without a lot of unnecessary trouble.
I live in the NYC area and all of these weapons are illegal. Once, someone broke into my house so I had to grab a chef's knife from the kitchen. Afterwards the police came (around a half-hour later) and tried to take me in because I had the knife. I am dead serious.
Did you stab the intruder or hurt them in any way
Crazy!
You couldn't pay me enough to live in NYC.
That totally sucks
I actually want these guys to do a "Top 5 Guns for NYC" video. That would be a REAL challenge. They'd probably only come up with 3D printed guns and flintlocks. Lol.
andreww1212 I would relocate in a heartbeat. Rural areas are free and much safer than large cities.

tripperdoo some people shouldn't be driving either because 1. Hot tempered (road rage) 2. Not very skilled(easily involved in accidents 3. Can't do it without driving or texting etc
That being said you don't ban guns because of some who are incompetent; there are laws who deal with those are negligent or incompetent.
Life is and will never be a utopia; it's imperfect and dangerous and unfair. You don't take away people's freedoms. I would risk living a shorter life with more freedoms than live a longer life with fewer freedoms.
tripperdoo incidentally the mayor of London is considering banning knives now because the murder rate in London is approaching new York city. Remember the problem isn't the object in question like a gun or knife but the individuals morality, state of mind, or values. We need to ask, "what happened to morality?"

x x hell ya you get gun rights and can defend your second adnendment
@Clench Chad Man The police will arrive in 3 hours. Lol
We have experienced a massive victory here in Canada recently. It used to be that you could only defend your home with equal or lesser force as the intruder. We can now legally kill any intruder into our home, not necessarily your property but within your walls. The official law is that you can kill anyone who threatens your life but the supreme court of Canada has said that any intruder can be legally determined to pose a direct threat to your life, even if they are not armed. It truly is a good day.
I'm sorry, I just have to ask, why would you want to actually KILL someone though? I understand that being legally allowed to kill someone takes some of the worry out of shooting at them in the first place, because you don't have to think "I might hit them somewhere vulnerable, they could die and I'll have committed a crime", but the way you said that makes me think you WANT to kill them.
Just a disclaimer, I'm not looking to have an argument, nor am I against guns, and am quite fond of most weapons. I just don't understand why it's so good to be allowed to kill someone. Especially a person who is unarmed.
I'm absolutely not excited to kill someone. It's just that in Canada we've for too long not been able to defend ourselves at all. My excitement comes from the gaining of more of our lost freedom. I'd be a happy man if no one ever broke into my home and I never had to shoot anyone. Also, my plan is keeping a less lethal round as the first one to be shot so that I can avoid killing someone. I'm just happy the option is open to defend myself is available without fear of prosecution.
disgusting.
Thank you.
Connor Smith it bothers me greatly that somebody would celebrate the ability to slaughter unarmed human beings for the simple crime of intruding. truly revolting.
The second you break into my house, since you've taken my right to feel safe in my own home, you've given up your right to live without buckshot holes.

So many people argue on these sites, and the arguments seem futile to me. If you like guns, simply move to where they are legal, the community supports them, and even encourages them. If you don't like guns, simply move to where they are banned and discouraged by the community. Why shouldn't people have the freedom to choose?

"45 long slide with laser sighting"!.
In my opinion, a revolver is best for immediate action, an automatic pistol is called for when you have to go looking for those that wish you harm. Ive only had one confrontation in which I used a revolver to protect myself, the perp was shot off my back with a S&W .38 cal . He made it to the hospital in time to live. He was sentenced to 3 yrs in prison. One confrontation in 70 yrs is pretty good in my book. I still carry a hamerless .38 cal S&W wherever I go. I'm not afraid, just cautious. Good luck all.
Michael Knowles dude I had a tactical shotgun and pump and one time a dude shot down my structure and I trampolines to them and tac gunned them and then switched to the pump and it did 9 damage and I died😔 so unfair
@@mannyescuela3511 Dumbass, how the fuck did you assume he was talking about Fagnite? He's talking about a legit scenario where a real .38 cal bullet entered a real human being in an attempt to stop an attack. And here you come trying to one-up him talking about fucking Fortnite. You kids make me Fucking sick.
I agree Michael, I have a lot of the weapons mentioned in the video and at 6'3" and 275 lbs a 12 ga. is fine for me but a Mossberg 500 with 10 rounds of buckshot and a 5 round side saddle is to much for my wife, she couldn't even swing it. Your best home defense weapon IMHO is a 38/357 revolver, good cover, a cell phone and the attitude to pull the trigger if needed. Once your in position and have a choke point covered and hit 911 you drop the hammer on anything in that doorway or hall that doesn't belong there. You don't go looking for a fight, let it come to you, most aholes doing a B&E aren't looking for a firefight anyhow and the last thing you need to be doing is racking slides and fumbling with safety's.
I think that this topic is still on the 38 special. So my preference in ammo would be the FBI load - Semi wadcutter 158 grain. YMMV.
@@mannyescuela3511 did you just get done eating paint chips when you wrote that?

I actually have a desert eagle in .44 magnum for home defense currently, I got a CZ 75 recently but haven’t had a chance to test it so I personally can not say it works (although I’m sure it does) but I know for a fact my desert eagle doesn’t jam (despite what lots of people say online, it’s the Mk Is and the Mk VIIs That Jam, the magnum research Mk XIXs work perfectly from my experience)
Didn't think I would see you here. I think it's very fitting you actually use a Dessert Eagle for home defense.

Leonardo Marques Se você faz isso e é abordado pela PM corre o risco de levar tapas e ser taxado de bandido em potencial por portar armas brancas, até mesmo um bastão tático é perigoso eles ''confiscarem'' de você.
***** Cara para de ser idiota bandido pega arma numa banca de aluguel em qualquer morro, bandido compra um oitão por 700 reais ou menos. Só a pessoa de bem que se fode com isso e não pode andar certinho.
***** Com o controle correto, tanto físico quanto psicológico, de antecedentes, de preparo e treino de qualidade para a sociedade, não haveria problemas. Uma pessoa sã bem preparada não representa perigo, somente uma segurança para a própria sociedade, pois o bandido não saberia quem tem ou não arma, o fator medo ia faze-lo pensar. Uma pessoa apta e de bem que estivesse autorizada a carregar uma arma não a sacaria e usaria para nada. Mas, admito que muita coisa tem que mudar no Brasil antes, pois muitas pessoas que não atendem os requisitos iam conseguir por meios ilícitos o porte, e a lei parece que foi feita para proteger os bandidos. E só reforçando o que já foi dito, bandido NUNCA comprou nem vai comprar arma em loja e com número de série dentro da lei.
***** Você se arriscaria a apontar uma arma de choque, spray de pimenta para um bandido com um 32, 38 que seja na mão? Hahaha acredito que não. Eu não, porque sei que ele não vai atirar para me debilitar. Exames psicológicos, antecedentes criminais, antecedentes de familiares, grau de escolaridade, registros médicos e mais muitas coisas podem ser analisadas e repito uma pessoa BEM preparada e apta, para ter o porte exames e treino periodicamente, e exames sem datas programadas para as pessoas não terem como se preparar com antecedência. Já fui assaltado mais de uma vez e UM cidadão armado teria rendido os bandidos mesmo sem matar. Com a legalização os ladões iriam ter medo não nós população de bem. Nós estaríamos aptos a nos defender também.
Thank you for mentioning that in countries besides the U.S. self-defence is prohibited and is punishable by law.
A story from CANADA for you folks -- restaurant owner, closing hours, cleaning up with a broom. Hears window broken, goes to screen to investigate (has CCTV cameras installed). Sees intruder. Goes to confront the intruder. Beats the intruder up with a broom. All is recorded on security cameras. Police arrive on scene -- arrest both. Intruder gives testimony that the restaurant owner beat him up with a broom. Restaurant owner is charged.
Another story from CANADA -- a well known shoplifter in the area goes from store to store and shoplifts stuff. Store owner recognizes the guy, notices him shoplifting stuff, confronts him, chases the shoplifter out of the shop and down the street. Shop owner overpowers the shoplifter, ties him up, drags him back, calls the police. The shop owner is charged with kidnapping of a person and forceful confinement.

Get a grip on reality nobody cares enough about you to require defending against. Also, read a book your grammar is awful.

Because so many people have an opinion (i.e. know for an absolute fact!!!) what the best home defense guns are. Which rarely agrees with the opinions (i.e. crazed babblings of brain-dead pudroaches) of anyone else.
So in a respectful display of honest disagreement they click the dislike button (as there's no "pure and utter contempt" button).

Always believed in revolvers over semis for simplicity and reliability. When you're awoken in the middle of the night and in a groggy state you don't want to be thinking about whether you have a round in the chamber or is the safety on or off. Just grab your revolver, point and shoot.
Agree, revolver will never misfire. Pistols advantages more rounds on your favor. Personally owned a 44 magnum snob nose, 12 gauge pump.
That is more of a user issue
@@JJM-qf8dz it is highly unlikely for decent semi to misfire. Have you considered the cylinder in a revolver jamming due to foreign objects getting into the gaps? I believe a channel has done a mud test where the revolver a model 19 was proven to be unreliable compared to a semi auto

Seriously? A Kriss Vector? I mean, come ON!
Yeah when they said the vector I was like "how out of touch with reality are you?" Cost way to much just to keep for home defense
Robert Bogan I know, right? Not just price, but you might not be taken seriously by a burglar etc (it looks like a toy) and be forced to shoot him. A 20 gauge shotgun is the best, imo.
Well what if your house is being shot up from outside a shotgun will give you far more power and a slug could take out a engine block say 5 guys in a car open up do you want to use a pistol then? Plus a shotgun despite its size is very versatile birds to Bears is a amzing range for one gun
Robert Bogan Nah. Then I use one of the many Karl Gustav's I have at every window. Or the Javelins in the attic.
yajo891 Well, yes. But if you're going to have only 1 weapon for home D, I'd go with a 20 gauge. I, personally, have most of my weapons loaded in my house & car. By my bed, on a small bookcase right beside it, I have my CZ P-07 in 9mm (this is also my carry weapon). There is a Mossberg 500 in my bedroom closet - loaded and unobstructed by anything. In a drawer by my back door is my Springfield 1911, loaded but not chambered (usually). In my den I have my S&W M&P 15 in an inconspicuous place, loaded and chambered. In my car's console is my S&W 642, loaded (so in my car I will usually have both my carry CZ AND my trusty .38).

Smith and Wesson are nice, if you can afford their prices. I'm just as happy with Taurus, frankly. Mine just happens to be a what like to call a "snub-nose" 6" dual action stainless steel .38 revolver. It's small, user friendly. Not too overpowered but definitely going to drop someone first shot. And it's easily concealable.
I think you meant to say 2 or 3 inch. A 6-inch barrel is certainly not a snubby and (for most folks) not easily concealable.
Anyway, glad you found a revolver you like.
Heh. I meant 6" in overall length lol. :P
Okay, very cool. And I agree, revolvers rock!
Goy Ishah buy a Smith&wesson SD40VE or the 9mm version $365 with 2 magazines and a FULL LIFETIME WARRANTY and transferable if you sell. i have one its a great gun better than a glock
For home defense? .38? You on some weak shit.
Kriss Vector weapons are very, very expensive, especially with the EOTech red dot sight attached. I would imagine it would be safe to say that this would set you back well over $2000. If you're on a budget, stay away from this one. There are many other fine weapons, for much, much less that will do fine for home defense. I personally use the Glock 21 .45 for home defense and it roughly costs about a third of the price. All in all, a great video though.
majorxdf hell yeah man i got a glock 21 gen 4 with a viridian x5L....i got a $20 bulldog holster cause it has IWB OWB an extra mag holder on it but because the pistol is big an the holster is kinda thick its hard to conceal if i mexican carry im able to hide pistol well but its too dangerous to do...what holster would u recommend for concealed carry on G21? maybe a soft leather one would be thinner id like to get a custom kydex for the light laser combo

Good video, I like having my Mossberg 500 Cruiser 12 gauge handy. Glad to see your focus on over-penetration when conducting home defense, as I don't think it's a subject that gets enough attention or has enough thought given to it.
@ponianyoutube8071 Actually, my favorite longarm from that period is the M1841 "Mississippi" rifle.
Haven’t been back to this channel in years. RIP Barry the legend.
Barry was awesome
Alright, here is a suggestion, FIVE GUNS TO USE IN AN INSURGENCY AGAINST THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE USA. Sorry for the caps but I think it would get someones attention better.
you got that right
1765 then
2014 now
REVOLUTION
nopotato Yeah because normal weapons are going to be effective against kinetic energy weapons and drone technology. Good luck with that.
Evan Wilson That's why it's important that we are *together* when the time comes. They can't fight all of us at once.

Id love to see a top 5 concealable revolver.
2 inch ruger sp101 5 shot 357 works 4 me
kev lar 2 inch era windercator 357 with FMJ 158 or wadcutters 158
HP 124 148 158
I'd love that as well
Derro Farm LMAO
kev lar hell yeah, that's my carry gun too!
I am a widower and live in the bottom of a 2 family house. I use a 7 shot remington 870 loaded with 2 71/2 lead shot and 5 rounds of 00 buck. I deliberatly use a load that patterns the tightest at 20 feet.
a question:
What type of ammo could hurt the bad guy but not kill him?
preferably for a glock gun..
No idea what caliber your Glock is, but 9mm rubber bullets are available.
but do rubber bullet stop intruder?
is it that painful?
Benjamin Shtark if u empty a mag of training bullets into the assailant it will most likely stop him,unless if he is on something then u can shoot him with lethal bullets in a non lethal spot which may be hard
Rubber bullets
birdylover100 training bullets are rubber
Glock 19! I'm a glock fan especially in the Glock 19 and 17!!!!
I'd prefer the P90 on that wall lol
+Andrew Long I would agree with you if we could actually get P90s instead of the PS90 which is what is on the wall.
.50 Cal for when the intruder is behind the fridge...at ur neighbors house
And is 2 miles away...
Shop Tour! Shop Tour! Shop Tour!!! we need a new Shop Tour! Thanks Eric
by the word "firearm" do yo mean snowball shooter?
(I live in canada)
Lol
Omg I have one...Canada...
same...Canada...
in America we have beer shooters.....
ha, good one xD
The Vector looks like something space marines would use. Home defense?
+Henry Pitts its a pistol caliber gun.
That type of thinking is why the people are wanting to get rid of the scary looking guns such as the ar-15 rifle. The ar-15 isn't any more lethal than others, it just looks so. The Kriss Vector is a 45 cal gun...now in 9mm too. It is just a different and "scary" looking gun.
+Josh Adams well said all firearms equally dangerous regardless of how they look
the vector is pretty much a glock 18 in a shell that makes it look that way.
Exactly. It is a cool looking 45 or 9mm. I think it is something over 60% of people survive handgun shots, but don't take my word for it...look it up. Please vote Trump people.
I'm 14 years old and sleep with a Glock 23 with a Streamlight TLR-1 next to my bed on my nightstand. My parents say they trust me enough to do so. Loaded with 40 S&W Hornady Critical Duty 175 grains.
Here's how I'd change your list...
1. Shotgun: 12 or 20 gauge with an 18-20" barrel.
2. AR-15 Rifle - light, low recoil, 20-30 rounds, very usable by women and even pre-teens. Light 55-62 grain ammo less likely to over penetrate than other rifle calibers.
3. Scrap the .410/.45 pistol and get the real thing. An S&W Model 25/625 revolver in .45 ACP. More accurate. These are big, heavy guns with very low recoil that can be reloaded in a flash with moon clips. I like Double-Tap's 255 grain .45 Auto-rim revolver cartridges in mine with moon clips loaded with Speer Gold Dot 200 grain JHP.
4. Glock 17/19/21/22/23 or if you have kids and want an external safety, the Beretta 92FS/96. or even a CZ P-01.
5. A high quality 4-inch barreled .38/.357 revolver, like the Smith & Wesson 686 series or a K-Frame .38 (Model 10, 15, 67). These have been effective for generations and while limited in capacity, they have the simple "point and click" interface. Speer's 135 grain Gold Dot ammo is a good match here in either caliber.
I like your considerations on the safeties etc. Nice thought process man.
The Major Thanks. With kids around it's wise to secure things like chemicals, matches, lighters and weapons out of their curious reach. But sometimes they'll figure things out themselves. That's when you want the additional feature of an external safety. That might give you/them the edge needed to prevent a tragedy. I'm a traditionalist and prefer the 1911's thumb safety or that of the CZ P-01 instead of the Walther/Beretta style. With no kids around the house now, I'm back to using wheelguns as primary. A .38 is generally adequate but the backup is a S&W Model 19 .357 with .357 Gold Dot ammo.
Or simply be a legend and fight with a spoon

Your choice .
😃 :)
Would love to see a top 5 shot guns for first time gun buyer! (heavily leaning towards a mossberg 590 or even a 500 if a good deal pops up)
You can't go wrong with a 500.
love my 500. can't go wrong.
Your choices all look good to me. I use 870 Express Tactical with Tactical Light( note light has a off switch lol) I use Hornady 00 Buck Shot. I also use Glock 21 with Laser/TAC Light. I use Hornady .45ACP Critical Duty+P 220 grain Hollow points/polymer insert/Nickel Case.
+P change your point of impact at all?
???
I was curious if using +P ammo affected accuracy and such.
I found no difference when I tried it at the Range! Although I only tried it twice because it is so dam expensive. Once in my Glock 21 & Once in my Kimber Tactical Pro II.
Appreciate the analytical videos that help us decide what is best for real situations. You and Chad are the gun doctors/professors.
Would a colt .45(m1911) handgun be a good home defense weapon, or would it be too powerful?
M1911 is a good choice for dropping someone but the load behind the .45 acp is massive and will punch straight through 1-2 walls
aaron blackburn why the knee?
The Idiot Chefs To injure the guy so they can't run, but not kill them.
arridexerandco there is an artery behind the knee cap, if you shoot them there. they could bleed out very quickly
The Idiot Chefs ok.
I'm sure I will get some backlash for this but I use a .22 Lr for home defense but I do have good reasoning behind it:
1. I live in the middle of no where farm country Ohio if I lived in Cleveland I'd have about 16 glocks lol
2. I really do not want to kill someone but if necessary a .22 can and will kill
3. 9 chances out of 10 if someone breaks in and sees your armed there not gonna ask what caliber it is
4. A .22 will not go through a wall and hit my brother in the next room
5. If necessary my mom and sister who are both very short and small can control the recoil if necessary
+Dunewolf Jr. Gaming Important things to note: (2.) The point is to STOP, not kill someone; (3.) Thieves are notoriously on or needing drugs and often don't care (4.) THIS ONE IS MOST IMPORTANT: Yes, a .22 WILL go thru walls.
We can all agree that the racking of a shotgun is probably the scariest sound in the world
only scary if you're in someone else's house :P if you're the one racking the gun its the most satisfying sound in the world
In Germany you can get punished when a burglarer gets hurt on your ground while he breaks into your house and calls the police.
Are you fvcking serious? That's probably why isis retire and move there when they get tired of fighting.
I think you need have a shot gun and a hand gun to shot to live you think he is let you live no

@space cowboy#2 sorry
@space cowboy#2 yeah
Let me see..... I could go through the trouble of getting a special stamp / license, spend $1500 and get an ugly, bulky ass kriss vector.... or go to walmart and get a $289 shotgun..... hmmmmm decisions, decisions...
what is up with this "short barrel rifle" nonsense. gun laws are totally whack I mean you need a special tax stamp for it but not for a pistol which is essentially a short barrel rifle?
James Johnson it's worse taxes than 1776
Bought my first gun for home defense! Went with S&W Gov'na!
Hey,Very good video. I keep a H&K USP 45 with hollow point and a S&W airfreight. 38 with hollow point for answering the door. We are in a whats mine is mine. In the market for a 12 ga.for a spread shot.
How about some "5 Guns" videos for people living in gun-unfriendly states that may have some additional red tape to deal with?
Why dont you make a video about the Top 5 Accessorys and Gadgeds for Home Defense?
I mean the most important thing is to distinguish between the housebreaker and your family and to be accurate when youre tired.
if you're going to suggest something, at least spell the words correctly.
+Iraqveteran8888 top 5 guns for the civilian uprising
yes
No matter what gun you own, you couldn't stop a predator drone 35 thousand feet above dropping a bomb off on your town.
Well..... There are some anti-aircraft guns you can get on the market
so federal guard dog bullet is best for glock for home defense? any other bullet suggestion for target practice and home defense? thanks
also I in gun range the target aren't moving and you are not nervous (vs a intruder) there is a gap betweeen hitting stationary target in gun range vs home intruder that's moving and maybe more than 1 and you just woke up and nervous. what do you suggest for that?
Even I tat situation you have a better chance been armed than have your bare hands.
When I was 7 years old my Dad gave me a 44 six shot revolver I had no trouble handling the recoil it's how you hold the gun and makes a difference.
Oh ya, when I was six, my momma gave me a bolt action 300 Winchester magnum. I could hit 11 out of 10 golf balls at a 100 meters... with only 9 shots
Keep up the great video's GO 2nd AMENDMENT!!!!!!!!!!!
Another benefit of a pump shotgun is that the sound might scare the intruder off.
true i know if i was breaking into a house and i heard a pump action i would get the fck out
That's a myth.
I don't know, I would run from that sound
are u racist
What?
“Pepper somebody good” reminded me of Dave Chappelle.
"Uh, do you have a box with a picture of a white dude trespassing on it? That's exactly the strength I'm looking for."
AR15 with soft lead tip rounds will be easier on the overpenetration and will get the job done. If you have multiple assailants, then a 30 or 40 round magazine will defend you all day. I do have my Glock 19 on hand (still in holster) if it is not in my waistband. If I get up and I am in my PJs, Glock is in hand (in a minimalist holster). Thought is to have something that I can use to fight my way to my rifle.
If you get tired of being accused of being a Glocktard, fanboy, etc. (I've seen enough of your videos to know better) you can always refer to modern, striker, fired, polymer pistols. I know that's a mouthful but to some extent, Glock has come to represent other guns. It's kind of like the CocaCola of guns these days.
Chris Ski What do mean?
For Home Defense my Favorite gun to use would be the first gun I can get my hands on when I need it.
Ive been looking into revolvers as a first time gun buy for home defence.
(I do have experience with handguns) Recommendations?
My reasoning: Low maintenance, Iconic look that any intruder will recognise, but mainly theres no spring to wear down if not in use. Id rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it (working).
For a first time shooter/owner go with a striker fire semi auto pistol. Lighter trigger pull, very easy to maintain, very easy to handle.
In the dark, a home intruder won't recognize the iconic look of a firearm, so be sure to turn on the lights for him/her/them before discharging.
Dresden Sinn Excellent response
Trust no 1 Yeah, I would highly recommend a Glock 19 like Eric said, especially if it's his first purchase. It's just as low maintenance, it looks like a Glock, but in a home defense scenario a all the bad guy would see is the muzzle anyway, and you don't need to worry about the spring. Plus you can load 15 rounds in it way faster than you could put 5 or 6 into a revolver.
S&W R8 its expensive but gives you the option to mount a light and optic if you choose. It is an 8 shot .357 magnum that was designed for swat entry teams. even if its not what your looking for check it out it's a cool gun.
hi i'm new to your channeled i never owned a gun but with the shit that's happening in the usa right now thinking it's time to own one and i'm looking at the hk vp 9 for home defence what is your opinion ?
your comments from 4 months ago, but did you end up getting it? HK's are awesome guns.
