No one would mess with a SEAL carrying a .44 magnum. Real life General Shepherd right there.
or ispector Harry Callahan from SFPD. My favourite movie police officer when I was a child.
I don't know about packing a 44 but at the time I could see myself pulling a GIGN and packing a 357
No seal ever would. Non standard ammo is a nono and they're pretty heavy
He got the BIG IRON!
for real lol that’s so epic
My dad carried a 44 magnum for 14 yrs, and loaded his own ammo (mega hot). He gave me some when he retired. The day after 911 me and some friends went to the range to let off some steam...and it was packed (Houston). I was on the very end lane and I pulled out the S&W 44 and put some of my dad's loads in. I fired a couple rounds and the range stopped. Everyone was looking at me because when I fired the fireball was so massive and concussion so great the leaves on the ground would get sucked down range. All the pew pew plastic pistols were like bbs compared to my dad's engine killing police loads.
The good ole days.
Great times !
That is fantastic lol. We had a trainer come over and asked if we could take a brake for a bit because the little lady he was training kept jumping when we were firing. Hey at least she wants to learn good for her. No problem buddy!
M E G A H O T ✨😂
Bet he had it loaded with a slow powder like 2400 so it had tons of energy and the powder was still buring out the barrel the old blazer in 44 in the 90s did that too super cool my dad blasted his 44 at sunset it was so cool
You’ve got a great demeanor in your videos. No ego and that’s refreshing. I enjoy watching them even at 53 years old!
well, when you've actually been thru some shit.....
@@BChan1991 Right? Coch has nothing to prove to anyone, so he doesn't need to chest beat or brag. I get the feeling this is just naturally who he is, and it's why he's such a great guy.
Yeah,,, There are some chadds out there.. Being a gentlemen is a lost art
Seeing a 1911 in Coch's hands put a big smile on my face. Thanks for sharing, Coch.
My dad was an F14 pilot in the ‘80s and carried a Browning HP. In the ‘90s and up until early 2000s, Sig Sauer P226.
Did he ever shoot anybody with it?
Don’t think so. He did use an AK in Desert Storm after being shot down.
Thanks "Coch", brilliant video, I still carry a pocket knife everywhere, just in case someone has cake. I started my career with the Browning, and I have not worn green for 20 plus years. And recently I saw that we are still using the High Power, only in the 21st Century version. Cheers
We (Denmark) used the P210 Neuhausen until 2020... old warhorse like the High Power...
If it ain't broke, don't fix it 😄
Years ago, I shot a small club IDPA match, and the one competitor and his daughter brought a cake to celebrate her birthday. As luck would have it, they forgot their knife, and I had mine on me. Of course I took a photo, because everyone always asked me why, and I also said 'to cut a cake if needed'! Now there was proof *lol*
In Canada, our Forces still use the Hi-Power as well... but it's the 20th century version (as in 1939-1945 Inglis production).
That brings back memories, i'm a Brit veteran, i trained and carried the Browning hi power, loved it, reliable, ease of use. Quite accurate too. Classic small arm like the 1911.
As an American I know it's blasphemy and they're all good pistols but knowing what I know now I'd go for the 9mm over the .45, whether a Hi-Power, Beretta, CZ-75 etc. Especially with modern HP ammo.
Starting LE in 1988, issued the following in order:
Smith and Wesson .357(Mdl 686) , P226(9mm) , P228(9mm) , Sig P229(.357 Sig) , Glock 19 (9mm). Wonder why I am Sig biased? 2 agencies and 35 years later, looking forward to some peace and quiet👍
Technical corrective note: HK was first to integral rails on pistols with the USP (1990) not Glock. Glocks did not introduce the rails on their pistols until Gen 3 (1998).
cant wait to get some usp’s
Even tho I’m a purely recreational and competition shooter , I enjoy a highly qualified insight into the pure efficacy of firearms as tools of the trade . Great overview !
The P226 is still the gold standard. Keep up the great content.
5:15 the story I've heard about the slides breaking was that the teams ordered 9mm ammo loaded to the same spec that they were running in their MP5s and that Winchester made the ammo with milspec cases that were thicker causing a significant increase in chamber pressure Christ Bartocci from Small Arms Solutions said that ammo cracked the frames on some P226s the teams were testing.
That’s what I remember hearing as well but even if that’s the case I could understand how that would mess with your head on how much you trust the pistol
Beretta changed the design of the M9 after the failures. I’ve never heard of a 226 exploding resulting in injury. Thx for posting
@@tacticalhyvecadre1049 that’s how we all got the infamous locking block. Befor it was mor like th e beretta 51.
This is true, Beretta actually sued the US Govt. and won citing the damage done to the Beretta name by the govt using out of spec ammo and putting on the pistol as the weak point. That said I own an M9 but I carry a Sig p229 daily, love the Beretta but the ergonomics of the sig are just perfect to me.
I was in a Beretta armor class back in 2005. The instructor told us the story about the SEALs testing the M9. It was found that the SEALs were using high pressure proof loads. not using ammo at SAMI specs causing the slide to split in half.
No HK ? This guy must’ve been in the Coast Guard and not a real team guy.
It’s a joke. Great Video Brother.
Seal Dad! Surprised they didn't switch to Glock's earlier. Nice to hear you dispel some of the negative talk on the reliability of the Sigs.
Have an great weekend!
The P226 is legendary. I love that gun!
I really like this sort of content. And, I really enjoy the manner in which you present it, Coch. It feels like just hanging out and listening to your buddy.
Great video, for me the most reliable gun is still HK USP in 9x19...but I always want to have P226Navy for my own :)
Great video. I discovered your channel a month or so ago so now I’m watching all your videos.Love the content and thank you for your service and sharing your experience
Love your content Mark. Always well presented, you have a great demeanour for a teacher (an obvious throw back to your Instructor days) and really interesting to listen to your experiences.
Interestingly our SADF Recce's are running P226's now after transitioning from Beretta 92's (and variants thereof), unfortunately nowadays (with corruption being endemic) we're always behind the curve. Our elite police paramilitary force, the SAPS Special Task force are running Glocks after transitioning away from their tried 'n tested H&K USP's which they ran since the late 90's. Almost all in 9x19, but with some guys opting for .40's as well. I see we're also starting to run more AR-15's than we used to, moving away from the R1- R6 series of rifles.
Thanks for sharing Mark. Best wishes from South Africa.
Enjoyed your video and seriously thank you for your service
Thanks very much Coch for your insights and for passing along your knowledge. Your vids are excellent.
I love my Glocks but nothing beats my first love and that’s the Sig P226.
“We’ve come along why a little” 45acp will always be king my man.
For a change, a great YT suggestion. I really enjoyed the video. My military career in SF started in 81 and all we had available was revolvers. Eventually we transitioned to pistols. Subscribed!
Thank you for your service. Never had a Sig but your endorsement of them says a LOT.
Enjoyed your trip down memory lane. I bought a police trade in P226. Puts thousands of rounds through it without issue and sold it to a buddy. I love Sig!!!
Always look forward to those informative videos from the “Coach”. Always delivered with that cool, calm demeanor.
Code name “Happy”, there’s nothing happy about your hairline or poor vision though.
I like your videos. You simple, clear, honest and real. Its refreshing to find a guy not flexing his ego in every video. You allow us to consider you ideas.
Thanks. I'll be watching all your videos.
Semper Fi
Great video! I love seeing these videos about the history of firearms in the seals. It would be really cool to see a similar format video about rifles.
Yes please 🙏
Thanks coch! Appreciate the content. ✊🏽🙏🏾
Thanks for the video, awesome stuff!
Great overview. Thanks!
Another great history lesson.. thanks Boss
By far my favorite CZcams channel. Been following your channel for a while. Learned a lot , laughed a lot. Keep up the good work.
Great to see the love for the 226
Coch!! Thanks for posting
Thanks for the video, as always Great job by Coch...
Very good informational video! Thanks for the insight!
Just discovered this channel. Very knowledgeable. Subscribed..
Hey Coch, great vid,. Ret. LE., two of your classes in Escondido, still benefiting from the extra attention ! Thanks ! Will always view your vids . . Take care.
Thank you for the information and insight.
Good stuff Coch. I was lucky enough to pick up a Mk25 in great shape. It is my favorite pistol in my collection. I also have a 1911 just because 😉 - love that fun too. Keep up the good work.
I think you should keep this up. You are experienced at this. Great for folks to learn!
Thanks man.great video.
Thank you for your service
Very cool to share your personal history with these handguns.
Thanks for the overview
Awesome video man!
Always love listening to Coch! Appreciate your time making these.
Love my Sig P229 in .357. I wore the first one out, it was 1st gen, then was issued the updated version - never had any issues with it. Then when I got out I bought the P229SAS model…absolutely love it.
I’m ex Navy Reserve 9.5 years
Thank you for everything you do and for showing us the basic. 🙏🙏🙏
Outstanding video. Look forward to more content. I subscribed
One of the best videos I’ve seen great job every enjoyable
Loved the P226.
I really like your no bullshit take on things . Thank you for your service.
Excellent and Outstanding!!!!
Thank You!!!!
First 30 secs of this video was fantastic
Enjoyed listening to ya. Watching MK25 videos just because, but ya dragged me into all the rest. Solid lineup.
Love all the Tac-Hyve guys, and though I don't like to pick favorites, Coch is my favorite nonetheless. I waste no time in watching one of his videos when I see it pop up in my feed! Though I've been shooting on and off for most of my life, I'm about two years into shooting as a serious endeavor. I love the videos on the pistol stuff since, as a civilian, that has been my focus for both home defense and CCW. Like Coch, I must live in the always beautiful Commiefornia for my gig, so of course my options are a bit limited. I have settled on a G17 for home defense and a Shield for CCW. I guess it could be worse!
Great show! 😉
Hi Mark this was great too. Keep making them.
The FN P35 and the SIG 226 are my two favorite pistols of all time. Great video.
Knowledgeable and with out ego awesome Love the hipower especially with the pac sig grips
Mk25 is an awesome gun. Carried one as a support guy for a deployment.
😆 "Nightmare's" nightmare at 5:06 ... thanks for the tactical anecdote! I'm sorry he lost teeth ... but what a great story, now!
Great channel Mark.
44 Magnum revolver Dirty Harry all the way so 80s that's awesome
Mark you showed up in recommended 1st Tier experience. New sub . Will look for more content. Thanks
Good brief! Thx.
Awesome channel.
great vids
I EDC a MK-25 now. Of all the sidearms I've owned or been issued (military and law enforcement) this one is by far my favorite.
Awesome review, Thank you for a rich review of your selections while in the service. I do agree with you in regards to the MK great firearm! As for the Barretta, well lets say i wanted to throw it away when I was a machine gunner in the USMC. That thing kept jamming!
Nice presentation. When I got to my duty station in 1991 (1/501 PIR) we still had 1911's. 🤔
Thank you sir for sharing
vid reminds me of my constant thoughts bringing me to the old days, better days. Im of the type that while everyone is playing music through cd's i am tuning out with 8 tracks......old style is always preferred......
Cool, next need Army Special Forces operator soon
The magazine disconnect in the hi power is quite easy to remove. Great video. I love and own all these guns. Given these choices though, I'm probably going 226. Love your videos and presentation. Thank you for your service. You're a real life American badass.
BZ! Mark , always love hearing your gouge - Would really enjoy attending a training event some day and chopping it up about your exploits. I remember tv watching during gulf 1 on night 1, and CNN had a camera on the beach in the faces of some Team guys, I can only imagine what was going through their minds.
Out of those the Beretta 92 is my pick for sure. This is thanks to Langdon Tactical renewed my love of the 92 with the Elite LTT. Second pick is the P226. Overall it is to bug for my hand. The DA trigger reach is way too long for me. With different grips and short reach trigger, I can make it work. Recently got a P226 SAO and it is perfect!
I was a military police officer and carried the m9 and later m11 pistols on duty. The issue with engaging the safety on the m9 was fixed by a field modification to the manual of arms. To rack the weapon with safety off we would grasp the slide to the front in the indentation. Our hands would be safely behind the barrel and the indent would gives us a purchase on the weapon and the safety would not be inadvertently applied. I still occasionally carry an L model beretta 92 on occasion.
From a shootability perspective, I agree on the 92; however that hammer drop safety is awful. I have often done exactly what Mark mentioned about engaging the hammer drop safety when dry firing. That's where the older SAO 92's were amazing. That P226 SAO is a dream pistol, CONGRATS! They're too damn expensive in my country to even contemplate (around $2000), so Glocks and M&P 2.0's are what I rock nowadays.
Best wishes from South Africa.
I Could listen to this guy talk guns all day long 🤙🏾
Great talk! Thank you.
Cheers Warrior, I was only the for support. Warheads for the call, Aviation. Hope we made you day a time or two.
Maybe it’s the giant anchor, or the stubble, but Coch is my favorite crusty old salt on CZcams.
Circa 1917, a corporal named "York" was very effective with his standard issue Colt 45 Gov't. model. He was no slouch with the 03 Springfield either.
Great video, there’s just something reassuring and “cool” about having a good ol metal frame hammer fired gun with iron sights. After shooting polymer striker fired wonder nines for years I just got my first DA/SA a month ago and I’m hooked (cz 75 p-01 compact). Put 500 rounds through it in a month. I trust it fully now. Next in my list is a p226 for sure. Wanted one forever. Way better than the p320/m17/m18!
Great video
I like your choices! Worked with 1UK division in '03 in Iraq and got to qual with the Brits Browning High Power - Nice gun! In my time as a medic/HM, I got to shoot/qual with the .38 M10, 1911, M-9 and Fam fired the Sig P226.
Great review ! Good information on each hand gun. First time watching your videos… seems like a pretty good CZcams channel… straightforward , good stuff, keep the videos coming..

It would seem to me that outside the U.S. 9mm would be easier to scrounge up if necessary.
Rule #1- Acquire a weapon.
if all I had was my secondary, I would use it to acquire a rifle....SkS, AK, Mosin, it wouldn't matter. Indigenous arms + ammo (assuming the person you took it from didn't need it anymore) would work for me.
P.S.- totally surprised the OHWS Mark 23 wasn't mentioned.
Thanks for your service to the USA and great video.
Bar Sto barrel, Kings gun works, Swenson ambi...just saying that was really a good time.
I think I’ve watched all of COACH’s videos. Very relaxing as he remind me of my father and older FROGMAN (UDT). I loved my P226 I got when I got out of the Marines. Sold it to a fried and wished. I hadn’t.
Great information...Navy 🇺🇸 1988-1994
Strong "Cool Uncle" vibes here Coch.
Good videos sir. I'm a fan, and now a subscriber.
Thank!
Hi Coch, I started my training many years ago on the high power🇬🇧.... Great videos on your times as an SF operator love to see even more on modern update s on gear and training etc, could you do a video on your knives and knife techniques etc..we always carried a racing spoon just in case their was any cake on offer 😜 cheer's 🇬🇧
"Never going to be your Primary" Love that.
Awesome review im a big fan of military facts and some of the firearms lol i repeat some. But ill be looking for future videos and you can rest assured you already have my like for all the future videos 👍
