    Bro! I just watched the 1911 video a couple nights ago and I was literally touched. I was raised on the 1911 by a father who spent time in Korea with a 1911 on his hip and he always instilled in me that if it’s not a .45 it ain’t shit and if it’s not a 1911 it’s lot a real .45. God love him. Miss you dad.

    The Beretta 92 was my first gun in my collection that I bought simply for the nostalgia of it. For me it’s Martin Riggs’ gun. The one I found was a G model that has LAPD cage markings on the mags and had still working night sights for being a 2008 produced gun. The only thing I added to it were slim G10 grips, put in a Wilson Combat shortened trigger kit and removed the lanyard loop.

      I was an LAPD officer for 32 years and retired now. When I was hired I was issued a S&W Model 67 4" 38 cal s/s revolver. Four years into my career the dept approved the 92fs for on or off duty use, and began to issue them to their recruits. If you had a revolver but wanted start carrying a 92fs, you had to buy your own and the dept would send you to the academy for training so you can transition over to the semi 92fs. And thats what I did,. I bought my own at the 92fs at store that is at the academy. Mine was an Italian made. I carried that 92 fs for on duty for 28 years. I, and every cop that I knew, loved their 92fs. I still have that 92fs to this day.

    I would replace the Glock with the spring field echelon, for $50-$100$ more you can get better sights, better grip, better texturing, better Magwell, gas pedal, take down level,ambidextrous, better slide release, trigger cuts for deeper grip, and if your lucky you can get a threaded barrel option. And if you wanna make a stock Glock to be the same as a stock echelon you have to throw hundreds of dollars at it, vs spending 50-100 bucks more and getting the echelon which comes with everything a modern day factory pistol should be.

    I own or have owned just about every pistol mentioned on the list. But, I think the Browning Hi-Power should be considered, I own an FEG Mod.GKk-45C which is a clone of the Hi-Power chambered in 45 ACP. I am not a fanboy of Glocks, had a 36 and traded it for a Ruger New Vaquero 45 long Colt. As far as Beretta, I have to go with the M9 it’s the military version of 92FS and it’s made in the US. And yes everyone should have a 1911. One of my 1911’s is a Kimber tactical pro ll my EDC. Great show , 1911 syndicate one of my favorite CZcams channels.

I have a glock 19 that I never shoot. I took it in trade from a buddy and I refuse to get rid of it. I don't even like it but I respect that it will shoot any time you pick it up and pretty dang accurate. I'm just old school and 1911 or browning high-power are more my liking. I'm a big fan of the old school sigs 220 - 232 yes I have em all. Thanks for the video. Glad to onow I'm not crazy or at least there are others that are on the insane plane with me

    Chris blau knows i bought another 1911 because of you guys.The beauty and mechanics of a 1911 is just unmatched..
    And your videos are honest and entertaining...
    Thats why I love you guys and continue to support you.

    I have 2 1911s, my 70 ser. that I had in the military when we switched over to the 92 (a sad day indeed) and an Alpha Foxtrot (Duluth, GA. ) in 10mm which is like butter to run, not cheap by any means but worth it, all the same and I have Glocks (G3 17 and a couple 21s plus a Mech Tech, M4 carbine conversion), a Keltec .380 pocket pistol I absolutely love which can be carried anywhere, anytime in 30 different ways and something I think absolutely should have been on the list as it's the quintessential, LE/military go to of the planet, we'll built, smooth running, accurate and easy to shoot, you guessed it... The Browning Hi Power (the "improved 1911"), so named as it was the first pistol to hold 13+1 rds. I have two "T" series, one in a beautiful blue and one Parkerized with G10 grips that's an absolute work mule. You can do so much with them to turn them into truly amazingly smooth shooting, reliable pistols and yet, they're terrific right out of the box.
    You like the HKs (I do, too) but I went the other route with the FN. The FN pistol and an FAL are the two weapons I would go to war and live or die on (ok, and my A.F. 1911 10mm 😆). Heavy, a *man's* rifle to be sure, the FAL won't quit on you no matter what you put it through. Sorry, waxing nostalgic for the old days, a bit.
    I do agree that if you're going revolver, a .357 Python is a must. 😊

    • @ChadBoss-qr4hl
      @ChadBoss-qr4hl Před měsícem

      Browning Hi-power... can't argue with that. Although, I disagree on the .357-- It's not if you're 'going revolver'... Every gun owner should be legally required to own a .357, PERIOD! Like it should be a law... how's that for gun control??
      Fun fact: My '81 Python is timed so perfectly it doesn't have a cylinder drag mark.

    The Glock my feelings as I have avoided them since their inception... Yes the VW will get me there and will start and run and everyone out of the box has shot dead-on. But, watching the impact on revolver carrying officers prematurely tapping a few bad-guys. I went with the S&W 645. When our Agency decided to finally go with an issued semi, it was the HK USP in .45 cal with lights, still have it (retirement benny) and still my fav. Striker took decades with a S&W Shield, as I avoided 9mm until then so I still need the 92F... The revolvers, S&W and Dan Wesson with a Ruger Black Powder US Army. Great clip and I agree with your logic.

I own a 3" Colt Python, a 4" Colt Python, a 6" Colt Python, all from the 60's except for the 3" which I had from '82 and converted from a 4" to a 3" so it is period correct and is identical to Wiley Clap's. I also have a Beretta 92FS, 92. 92FS Compact and an 85FS .380 ACP. My 1911's are from the 40's. I have 3 Colt LW Commanders in 38 super, 9mm, and .45 ACP. My other two picks are a CZ75 Compact 9mm, which is my EDC, and a Smith & Wesson 442 Airweight .38 special. I have many others that I like, Sig 226 in .357 Sig and 9mm. Sig 229, etc.
