Glock vs. Sig - Which is better for you?
Переглядів 790Рік тому
A brief overview of the differences between Sig and Glock to help you decide which is better suited for your needs. Glocks and Sigs are often seen as rivals that sit on opposite sides of the fence. Often people will swear by one over the other. This analysis is meant to more highlight the pros and cons of both, as well as my experiences with each.

My Glock Guide Rod Exploded
Переглядів 2,1 тис.Рік тому
I was shooting my Glock 17, and on the last round, the guide rod broke and launched forward almost 10 feet. The gun was inoperable after that and the slide was pretty difficult to remove from the frame. This is a stock Glock 17 with no modifications. The gun will most likely work again if I get a new guide rod, but I haven't tried that at the time of uploading this video. I've shot many Glocks ...

My thoughts on the Sig P320 & M17
Переглядів 28 тис.Рік тому
In this video, I go over my opinions and experiences with the Sig P320 line of pistols in detail and more specifically on the M17 version.
Heard they have some recalls. And clasic firearms has them for $349.99 right now
Yep. MP is the same as parkerized. The E-Type hammer is the "narrow spur" va the pre-war wide spur hammers.
Tisas 1911 pistols are not cheap or budget quality trust me. Tisas knew what they are doing when it comes to pricing to get their products out.
I want one I have the one with the enlarged ejec port n I think they cerakote it
Wilson combat fits all of the grip probs
Nice video, for what it is worth, I made a video of my Remington Rand, no commentary but feel free to use it for comparison purposes in your video if you like. Mine was an arsenal rebuild serial number dates to 1945. ua-cam.com/video/CjQK6pQJ9xc/v-deo.html
Every Tisas I've owned had an occasional FTF last round. I always thought it was the mags. So I did some research and found everyone of them to have over tight extractors. I adjusted all the extractors and they all run flawlessly. The 8rd MecGar mags were the worst. NO more FTF. The extractors were basically jammed in the slot and the roads could barely lock in during feeding. When spring pressure is low at the last round the failure is frequent. Great review! Tisas are great weapons.
How did you adjust the extractor?
I have the Tisas 1911 “a1” (it’s really not an a1 because of the flat mainspring housing, but I digress lol). I had 2 failures to feed in my first 100 rounds, but it was due to me limp wristing it. It was my first time shooting .45 ACP and I was not prepared 😅😅 once I fixed my grip, haven’t had a jam since. Just figured I’d give y’all my unsolicited 2 cents
I just bought one for my LMT. I was going to get a Kac but I wanted that free float. With any type of distance or windage itll help with that accuracy. and shooting off any type of barricade. Who knows...maybe eventually Ill get a Ras too lol
I have the older US Army Tisas 1911 version and I got some surplus grips. But the non period correct ejection port drives me nuts. Now Im trying to figure out if buying this is worth it Lol
Of course it was, ya dingus! For your health.
Thanks, I've been eyeing the Tisas U.S. they have a couple different options there's 3 or 4 of the armed forces replica versions. I really enjoyed & agree that it would be a fun historic peice, great video 4☆☆☆☆'s
One thing no one mentions, is how cheap the oem coyote p320 modules feel. The black varients feel like they have an extra layer of plastic or something. Meanwhile the coyote is very smooth and feels like a dollar store toy. I bought one and immediately thought i got a knockoff. Paint was peeling on the inside, when i shot it the paint would actually start to melt and drops of paint were in the module. When i shared on the sig subreddit, they all said it was a real module. For $70 that is a slap in the face!
I just got one and I’m blown away! My slide doesn’t army so maybe a newer version? Mine says US 1911A1 and the zig markings is under the frame instead of on the side of slide. Bar gun I’ve bought in a long time! It’ll last a life time and feeds HST great with Wilson combat 47D mags
This company is owned by turkey which is the largest supporter of Hamas next to Iran it is a harbor of terrorists and fund terrorists. FACT
🇦🇺😎👍Nice 🏁
I feel like a smoother side makes it a little more comfortable for carry. I have some pretty aggressive texture grips and they eat up my side a little bit and sometimes grabs my shirt when getting out of the car.
Well, im purchasing one. Guess ill be ready for some good old hammer bite. Just buying it to say i have a 1911 in my collection. Probably wont shoot it much. I love my revolvers. Those are my babies.
I bought one of these probably eight years ago why am I just now seeing a bunch of them on the Tube? Were just a few importers bringing these in ? My sample is blackened glossy finish not parkerized maybe they were available before these. I bought mine from James Wayne Firearms on Guns International they still offer some I believe it wasn't very expensive less than $400.00 right out of the box it shot well and I ended up using Kimber mags with no problems. Even shot some very mild handloads with Trail Boss and hollow points as well. I have replaced lots of the original parts with Wilson Combat and mounted a Burris Red Dot on it fun pistol to shoot.
Do they offer the safety cut with the Compact (15 round) size?
I have a 250 and this video really helped me decide to go with the Wilson. I have small hands
Stovepipe from an 8-round magazine... could it be the introduction of commercial 8-rounders that led to the lowered ejection port in the first place?
You've got a US Army property stamped, original designed Remington Rand fully parkerized 1911... The one and only thing you need to make it authentic looking are the Tisas full checkered grips, available on their website.. I have the exact same model, only I put a Wilson combat 1911 spring kit in it... It's smoothed it out quite a bit and made the safety more snappy..
Those look like key hole punches, which means there is a major issue with the gun or ammo.
I bought this gun in November for $300. So far it has been flawless with both FMJ and hollow points (Federal HST). It just didn't come with the wood grips. I am very happy with it.
As of 6/18/24-Exile Armory sells the 45 government model for $335
I just got one but the slide doesn’t say army and the ZIG marking is under the frame instead of on the side of the slide? Maybe a newer version? It’s awesome and feeds HST great which is huge because they’re great hollow points! Best gun I’ve bought in a long time
@@Gator69420 - These guns make it so that you can't afford NOT to own a 1911.
@@1001Hobbies yeah, I’m glad I got one because they’ll be going up in price I’m sure! My buddy has a Colt and I’m not even lying this tisas is better quality.
هل تنصحني بشرا هذا المسدس
I have the regular usgi version and it indeed gives you beaver tail bite.
Correction - not BEAVERTIAL - that part is called grip safety. It's hammer bite.
It look like it’s keyholes with fmjs?
It's more likely the paper target tearing
I think you're limp wristing it with one handed shooting.....
I am # 45 👍
Stove pipe probably factory mag, Failure to feed definitely you limp wristing it.
Cheap suggests shoddiness, inferiority, showy imitation, complete unworthiness. while inexpensive emphasizes lower price (although more expensive than cheap ) and suggests that the value is fully equal to the cost. So stop calling the Tisas or anything else cheap unless it really is junk.
cheap | CHēp | adjective (of an item for sale) low in price; worth more than its cost: they bought some cheap fruit | local buses were reliable and cheap.
@@mongooseguns2679 You've been schooled so lets hope it sticks.
Inexpensive but works, no brainer unless your a high dollar gun snob. Hoorah!
Love mine, I picked it up for $335. Only have a couple hundred rounds through it so far, no issues yet and I left the wood grips on just because I like them more.
Mine had a little tit on top of the mag where it broke free from the mold. I had to file it down to stop the lip of the shell from dragging. Nice gun.
That little "tit" was supposed to be there to be like the original GI magazine. It helps slow down the feeding of the last round in the mag.
@@dantaylor4954 Didn’t know that. Why did they want to slow down the last round. I sanded mine off
@@crawwwfishh3284, Sometimes the last round, having less spring pressure on it, flies out of the magazine too early. That can jam. Not all makers of 1911s use that little bump on followers but it was there on GI mags. I'm not really sure about this but it may be that extra power magazine springs dont need it. Many of my various brands of 1911 mags do not have the little bump.
@@dantaylor4954 Thank you sir.
Excelent review!
Glad you liked it!
That's right. Better than a Taurus G2C or G3 or G4 and for the same price
Very good pistol.
So happy I watched this before I bought the X-Frame……. Thanks
Did some research (Google) in 1936 US Army did a contract with Springfield Army for 1560 1911s at a unit cost of $24.65. In today’s dollars it would be roughly $548. So a base model good quality 1911 should cost around $500 give or take and with modern production and machining technology probably could be cut another $50-75, which puts a TISAS in line with what they’re bringing it to market for.
Same price as the ones made in the Philippines like Metro arms and rock Island
It's funny how the gun community are "marvelling" at the cheapness of the TISAS 1911 pistols. A couple of observations: mass produced 1911s back in the day while they were the side arm of US Military forces problably when adjusted for inflation probably cost about the same per unit as what TISAS cost (minus the smallar protfit margin). The basic 1911 was intended to be rugged, accurate, affordable en masse and easily serviceable. With modern machining and metallurgy a decent 1911 should be affordable that is the take away with the appeal and success of "budget" brands like TISAS and Girsan. With the platform over time, being slicked up and highly customized, which is fine for those that can afford it, as well as companies taking larger profit margins, the modern typical 1911s have been severely cost inflated. Good solid review BTW!
Thank you! Also that’s interesting to know the cost of these back in the day is very comparable to the cost now. That makes sense and just goes to show Tisas isn’t cutting corners or making an inferior product.
Thank you for this comparison!
I fired my Tisas US Army cerakoted 45 with the correct GI grips side by side with an authentic Remington Rand made in 1945. They felt identical, they looked nearly identical except for the finish. The feel in the hand and shooting felt identical. The sight picture was identical.
Good to know! I wish I had a real RR to compare to it, but glad to hear at least they seem virtually identical.
Audio in & out...
I love mine
Sig trumps Glock always
Which grip size is this? I dont see a full size with a safety... All I can find is the carry size
Yeah the names are a bit of a misnomer. The M17 uses a carry size module. The full size will work too, the only difference is the length of the dust cover (the part that covers the guide rod). The grip itself is the exact same size between full size and carry size. The carry size is usually better because it will also work for shorter Sigs like the M18.
@@mongooseguns2679 thanks for the reply! I'm thinking really hard about picking one up!
Do you have a link where you went and got that grip module? I have checked Wilson combat and cannot find this grip module. I also have a m17 and would like to get this grip module but having trouble finding it
Yep, absolutely. I don’t have the exact link on hand, but I got this particular one from MidwayUSA. I also have gotten grips from Midwest Gunworks. Both are great, just make sure the module you get has the safety cut out.
Biggest problem with these is that they stick with the same stubby ejector rod from the 2" guns regardless of barrel length, which is ridiculous. On your gun, the rod could easily be long enough to fully eject .357 but with this short rod it won't. Even their "target" versions have the stubby rod. Probably just a cost cutting measure...either that, or it was designed by people who've never actually used revolvers. Damn shame either way, and a deal breaker for me.
That’s a good observation, but from my perspective after having almost 1,000 rounds through this gun, that’s never once been an issue. Proper reload technique is to slap the rod, and the brass comes out without a problem. Gravity already does a lot of the work. And I’ve shot mostly magnum loads through it. When I do shoot bigger revolvers, the longer rod actually makes it feel harder to hit because it’s further away from the cylinder, and there’s a slightly greater risk you can hit the rod at an angle and bend it. Another slight advantage to the shorter rod is you get more mass under the barrel. I think it’s splitting hairs either way. If anything it’s more of a preference style. I don’t think this will be a drawback to most people, but it’s also valid to want a longer rod if that’s your style.
@@mongooseguns2679 the longer rod, builds in a margin of error when the loads may be a little hotter, and or the chambers may be dirty and sticky. In those cases, gravity will do you no good. Even with 44 magnums from both Ruger and Smith & Wesson, I have never once had a bent rod or found it unnatural to reach a tad further forward to access the front of the rod. The Kimbers are very nice revolvers, just seems like that very well thought out. Enjoy it though!
Look up Massad Ayoob’s stressfire reload video. If you’re reloading properly and the brass still does not come out, that is not a rod problem, that is a cleaning problem.
@@robolive123 you are correct, for heavy 357. The sticking could be a problem. But odds are you'll never even have to fire the 6 shots. Much less go for a reload, but a good point none the less. Could always carry a bug in the pocket as a New York reload
What problem does it cause when ejecting the ammo?
I like that gun.
Thats why i don't trust glocks.
The extended beavertail for me seems to help with contolling muzzel flip a little.
