- This is a discussion about firearm folks that tend to place judgment on others because they do not share the same opinion. The firearms used in this video as examples are as follows.
Caspian Custom 1911
Wilson Combat Professional Tactical Elite
Colt python
Colt Trooper
Ruger Mk 1
Sig Sauer P320
Glock 43x
Taurus G3c - Auta a dopravní prostředky
👍 I agree with your philosophy of appreciating all firearms for what they are, and I like every handgun in your collection!
Thank you
I especially like the Python/ Trooper hybrid because of it’s uniqueness and the fact that it probably bugs the hell out of few Colt purists!
@user-ut2gy8tg3i oh I am sure it does bug them. They do not like that even though I saved that gun. I did a video on ot when I first bought it. It was terrible looking. Lol. ThankS for watching
Great Video Sir! I have seen some of this on our channel. After 600 videos I think I have covered about 60 to 70% of the modern choices out there. So for example when the Glock guys get started on my large 1911 collection, I quickly shut them down by saying…. “Hey I get the Glock thing, I own a Bakers Dozen (13) Glock Pistols.” They usually stop there because most of them only own 2, 3 or 4 Glock Pistols! 😂😂
It is a good way to shut down the my Glock,HK,Sig, Tisas, S&W,Ruger, and CZ is better than your 1911, Glock, Sig, CZ, Revolver, etc. etc. To name a few. This might be worth a try if you feel the need. 😊😎🇺🇸

I love it
Man the stereotypes abound. I definitely appreciate how you can judge a gun for what it does and how it feels to you and not get wrapped up in the negative chatter.
That is what everyone should do. Thanks for watching
The only firearms people that i don't like are the
" Profiteers. "
You know the guys that bought up all of the .22 LR and sold it online or gun shows for stupid markups. $$$
In a recent years when America's Youth could Not get ammo. Scouts, 4H and other Responsible groups struggled to get ammo to Safely train the Kids to be Responsible, Safe firearms users.
Those Un American Profiteers are Loathsome.
Best Wishes! M.H.
I also dislike those of folks. Thanks for bringing this up
Good video terry i like all those weapons on the table they are beautiful
Thank you
That trooper is stunning, I know nothing as I am from UK. But love guns.
Thank you.
Oh... your Colt Trooper? it is beyond cool. It is a gun I would lust for and be proud to own and show off.
It turned out really well. I have a video on what it looked like when I got it and somehow the process it went through
@@TerryBenton Seen that one. I have probly seen 90% or better of your vids. but that gun is exactly the kind of thing I would do and not give a rats about 'purists'
Love my Colt Python AND my S&W M&P 380 professional EZ. I'm new to this world and I haven't heard alot of the negativity. One of your review videos helped me decide on my python. Thanks
That is pretty awesome. Enjoy that python!!!
The Colt Python is a terrific pick! Congratulations and enjoy it. It is one handgun I do not own yet. Stay safe out there.
Beretta SR. 😊😎👍🇺🇸
Just Picked up 4 hours ago and
In my hand is my NEW 2024 6” blue Python along with my 1980 6” blue Python.
Boy are they Way Cool to the Max !!!!

How does the new blue python look? Does the finish compare to the old ones in your opinion?
@@TerryBenton Hey Terry I think the blueing on the new Python looks as good as the vintage Python. I did not care for the wood grips they were kind of chintzy so I purchased some nice Altamont grips with a gold emblem and a gold rampant emblem horse similar to the grips I put on the current Anaconda I purchased. These new grips are awesome. It’s like purchasing corvette with hub caps and then putting on mag wheelers both guns not pop.
@k4vms that is awesome. I have yet to see one in person. There is a company now that makes EXACT copies of thr vintage python grips. The are Deer Hollow grips. They are a little but they are exact. I have a friend that bought some
@@TerryBenton I know you are in Florida but I forget where. I am in Englewood. Maybe we can meet and you can take pictures and you can to a presentation.
One thing even with the new grips on both the Anaconda and Python the old grips I like better because the checkering is more aggressive so the purchase in the hand is better.
@@TerryBenton where did he get them from ? Is there a web page ? I’d like to see pictures.
Very well said sir.
Thank you for watching
Good video. I'm thinking about buying a H&k SP5. I've also been looking at some of the clones which in some cases are much cheaper. Do you have any experience with these? I'm willing to spend the extra $1000.00 but I'd like to hear your opinion on MP5's and the clones. I trust you more than all the shills on youtube.
I am flattered to hear that you trust me. I honestly have never had any experience with MP5s. I know century makes/made an exact clone and I have always heard good things about them but I cannot personally tell you much about them. I am sorry I cannot give you more information but I will never lie or make anything up.
I've tried them all at one time or another. Most recently, I had a fling with 1911's. But after fighting with the reliability of my stock 1911's, I went back to ugly old Glock. My G21 Gen5 worked perfectly right out of the box at a fraction of the price of my 1911's. I realize that there are better guns to be had. But right now, that's where I'm at. To each his own.
Good deal man
I love my 1911s and my Glocks.
Great pick. 😊😎🇺🇸👍

I’m a revolver guy. I got nothing against semi pistols and have a few as well. But I do notice semi people never speak of semi’s jamming. I see it happening sometimes so I know it does happen. I never see a revolver jamming, maybe a non-fire then they move to the next chamber and fire away.
Of my semi pistols, I’ve only experienced 22s jamming. But I will also say I buy high quality firearms so maybe that’s the difference.
Every single semi auto will have a malfunction at some point. That is onenof the disadvantages to a semi. A revolver will usually never malfunction. The downside is the capacity and speed they can be reloaded. There are give am takes to everything
I am one of those guys who when he gets a new (to me) handgun I tend to 'fondle it a lot' and... once broke in (for me) it ends up taking some other guns place on the nightstand. my choice for nightstand guns are never ones that the 'experts' would have. They tend to be revolvers or a 1911. but my latest and best choice is a Uberti 1873 Colt clone in 44 special. I handload 250 grain cast and coated SWC bullets at around 800-850 fps depending... it is a fairly mild load with energy level about like a 1911 in 45 acp or a 45 Colt. plenty good. Why tho? I mean tiny little sights... single action... only 6 rounds.... I have been shooting one or another Colt or clone 1849-1873 wheelgun for maybe half a century. but still... why? well the clue is in the word 'nightstand' Implication and reality is...... you are next to it in bed at night! I learned how to hip shoot and point shoot on an old Colt many many years ago. For point shooting there is nothing superior meaning... everything else with the possible exception of a 1911 is inferior for that kind of use. Sooooo... it is dark. you can't see the sights anyway and there is no distance that is over 20-30 feet in your home... and you have to do it quickly most often So far as I know.. the single action 1873 style gun is STILL the fastest from the holster (or nightstand) to the first accurate shot of any gun ever made. Also I am a huge fan of great big heavy lead slugs. Killed a lot of critters with single actions right in that load range. What about only six rounds? really? seriously? more than 6 rounds in that situation? if so you probly have a glock and can't point shoot. And I have other guns around here and there not to mention the custom 870 leaning in the corner there.
On the Ruger Mk1 My first handgun was a High Standard Sport king 22 semi auto Made in 1952 or so... I was 9 when gramps gave it to me. Must have put a gazillion rounds through it. Friends had Rugers I was always better. My other gramps had a Mk1 he bought in 1962 and at his place in the desert we cousins (20 or so) all got to shoot it. To me? it was.....OK... barely. Soo when he passed away my dad got it but he never really liked it much. I had a High Standard like the original one and my dad loved it. so I gave it to him. I don't shoot 22 much... He in turn gave me the Ruger... sooo Ok... it was now a 'family' gun. this year I have been teaching my grand daughter to shoot... She was staying with me while she had her baby. She really liked that gun... even more than my 1936 Smith K22 (outdoorsman) Sooooo... in the spirit of 'family gun' I gave it to her. There was not much separation anxiety over that. They are a good gun... just not my cup of scotch. Anyway us old guys do tend to ramble on a bit. I may be a bit immature too... just put a tune on my hemi charger ex cop car and looking forward to locking all the doors for a bit when my girlfriend comes out next week for her next visit. Those things keep me busy and learning and so do guns.... stop learning new things or buying new tools? then you are just marking time waiting to die.
I want 1st Gen SAA so bad I can taste it. I had one a long time ago bit it was a poor example. Badly refinished black powder frame. I could not find anyone to work on it amd make it safe to fire. Normally i woukd tey myself but this thing had issues so I traded it away for something. I will get one one day when I find the right deal that works for me. So basically I get it with the single action. The Ruger is cool to me but I also understand the high standard. They are really similar to the colt woodsman. Very cool gun. Thanksnfor watching and for your comment.
@@TerryBenton Might I suggest a clone? my two Uberti's (in 44 spl and in .357 mag) are as accurate as anything I own and look and feel and handle exactly like a first gen Colt
@doranmaxwell1755 I will.get one and see how I like it
I like revolvers, primarily - but have nothing against semi-autos...
Smith & Wesson vs. Colt; which brand do you think is arguably better? There seems to be a lot of controversy surrounding Colt, for example - but I don't know whether it's reasonably justified or not. 🤷🏻♂️
I have both. I am a Colt guy. I do have quite the collection of Smiths also but I kean more towards colts
@@TerryBenton Oh okay - cool... Yeah, I have a new Colt Cobra I've purchased recently; haven't fired it yet (hopefully it's good 🤞). It's my first Colt, so I'm a little anxious.
@@carlosmorris4510 you will love it!!! Thanks for watching
Amen 🙏
Thank you
I get tired of people saying the new smith revolvers suck. No they dont. Old ones are better but the new ones are still really good.
This is why this video was made. People cannot give you a good reason why they "suck". They just know they suck
@@TerryBenton well you said it too lol. There is nothing wrong with the new ones. The lock does not affect anything. They are actually stronger. I still like the older better but its hard to find them in perfect condition.
One thing is that handguns.... are not easy to shoot well... that is simplistic but the root of some of this. I am mostly a revolver guy.. right there is a spot of contention to black plastic gun guys. and to top it off my self chuckers are 1911's and oddball WW2/cold war stuff and maybe a PPK or two and some little 25 acp Colt whatever.. So for semi's I want something single action with a good trigger and steel frame with removable grips. I want to be able to make the gun fit my hands (with some limitations) and to be accurate and to fit my ego.. that last means probly the grips at least are 'somewhat' exotic but they also have to fit well to my hand/grip I don't really care much about what others shoot or like but I have offended glock owners. I simply won't even shoot one.. like "no thanks" they are not fun for me and the grip angle is simply wrong. I don't want my hands and wrists contaminated... LOL Really tho the truth is if you learn to hip shoot or point shoot one then you can't hip or point shoot anything else well and vice versa. Soooo I just avoid em. I am also not a fan of the South American guns. This is simply bad history and they may be better now but I really don't need to add one to what I already own. Lastly... I am not great with myth. When someone tells me say that Rugers are built like tanks... Not really except for bulk. People confuse bulk with strength. Rugers have cast parts. Those parts are cast extra thick to make up for being weaker than other things like forgings. I will also mention that their quality control on tooling is spotty to say the least. When a tool for say reaming cylinders gets worn? they keep using for way too long. undersize chambers result. If you get a good one? they are great I have also been known to not be able to suppress a chuckle when I see a 'judge' Is it really true that they can knock down a barn! I mean... if you could hit one that is...but pretty much if asked.. I will explain why i like or don't like certain guns based on what I want from one personally.
I habe a video showing the casting on a ruger Revolver. You are spot on. I think we would get along. I am more of a revolver and 1911 guy myself. I ha e an original Comt from 1918. That is how much I like them
@@TerryBenton Yeah... lot of years between us but I have a lot of friends around your age. generally they are folks who have like interests to mine. I am sure we would become friends and learn from each other.
would I buy a new COLT Python? sure. the only thing stopping is the price.( since the new gun is not as hand fitted like before then it should be priced like a new S&W M66 ) .but one day one of the new ones might be a good used gun find. after all it is better made than the old one. and it won't go out of time like some of my old COLTs have .and would I carry it for protection? sure. one look at that gun I probably won't need to fire a shot. and if I do? not too many people argue with you after you hit them with a 357 magnum. I sometimes carry one of my S&W M19s or my M65 or M66. good guns. my issue Glock 19 gen 5 goes in the safe when I get home. tired of being with it after a day of work . ( and so you know, I have had 2 stove pipes with it in qualification shoots , none with my Sigs, none with my older S&Ws M39 and M909s so far ). and of course all my revolvers just go bang like they should.
What a great comment. Thenonly think I will.say is that the Colt Python is only moderately more than a new smith 686 which it is similar too. If it was still hand fit the cost woukd be $4k. $1500 give or take is nit that bad considering how much better finished off the gun is and the action is way better than a new smith right out of the box. Just think about it.
