Weekly Used Gun Review Ep. 23

[@kitjunky133]

I've had a ruger scout rifle for about 9 years and I have used it a lot hunting and at range its a versatile gun.

[@TheWabbitSeason]

I know who bought the other used Ruger Scout he had in the store. It is a great rifle.

[@kentuckyboy541]

I'm all about scout rifle concept except forward mounted scope. J. Cooper's reason for this was to facilitate the use of stripper clips. I specifically chose the mossberg mvp .308 as my "scout rifle" because of the magazine versatility. Solid little rifle.

[@jfretless]

I thought Bubba was everyone's potential prison cell mate... Now that I know he is a gunsmith, might make for some nice pillow talk.

[@jajabinx519]

Hahahha

[@jeffsimon2144]

The grip texture on the M&P 2.0 is awesome when you shoot with cold or wet hands (or cold, wet hands). It is pretty uncomfortable after a few hours riding against unprotected skin though, especially the slightly tender middle parts we middle aged men are known for.
I sanded down the skin- side grip with 1200 grit body shop wet/dry abrasive paper and now it doesn't rub me raw at all. I left plenty of texture on the grip, took me less than 10 minutes.

[@richardkiser2289]

Yep. Sandpaper grips but I like the new trigger

[@theumpteenthtime8854]

I put the rubber talon grips on mine. I wanted the 2.0 compact and found it at a great price, but I knew going in I would need the Talons. Which is funny because I put the Talons on my first gen shield for the exact opposite reason.

[@Brimwald]

I just did the sandpaper method and made the grips perfect for me. I used 1000 grit wet/dry sandpaper

[@bennettpatten4191]

The Kraig is a 2 lug action. That is the reason it is so smooth. It will not take the chamber pressure of the 30-06. You will blow up the gun. Some with hand loading the 30-40. Keep it at factory loading specs.

[@VCBird6]

Single lug plus a safety lug, actually

[@danielcharlescollins]

Love the lead off with the Hi Point.

[@paulfewings2688]

Chris, Very Thoroughly Done Sir ! !
Lots Of Info. ... Thanks
Blessings

[@josephbarker6875]

The FNS9c is greatly underrated for personal defense, being just a little bigger than the P365 . Having the mag extension gives the options that most 365/Glock43/Hellcat owners pay extra for and carries like a full size gun .

[@celowski6296]

Ruger SR22 is a great training pistol!! My wife and I both have one. What's weird is mine eats anything. Her's is loving CCI or super hyper Agullia only... Love this gun history.. Very good presentation...

[@cavtroopermunoz]

I look forward to these every week. Thank you.

[@michaelragains4938]

Great job , and really enjoyed this video. However only off by 100 years.

[@stevethecountrycook1227]

Ha, I heard that too! I wasn't going to say anything unless some one else said something! Chris is pretty sharp though! I'am sure he said "OH S*it when he watched it! It is ok Chris!

[@theumpteenthtime8854]

Hi Points just aren't worth it anymore when the Taurus has made leaps and bounds in quality. The HP C9 was my first pistol and I've always regretted it. Runs fmj alright, but not jhp. I've had it for 6 years and own many other guns now, but I can't even give the thing away. I offered it to my cousin who didn't have a pistol. After shooting a few mags next to my CZ he wouldn't even consider taking it off my hands for free. It just isn't fun to shoot. At least CZ got more business.

[@WALTERBROADDUS]

Agreed. There's line between budget snd stick up man gun.

[@mcekim2]

The venerable Hi-Point... I love it 😆. Some cool milsurp rifles in this episode. That Ruger Scout is a nice rifle! Also, my wife has a Beretta U22 Neos Inox and loves it!

[@ronschramm9163]

A little off gun subject, but does anyone else ever notice that there are "thumbs down" but never any comments on why the gave a thumbs down? My personal belief is the anti-gun crowd has a brigade that just goes in and gives it thumbs down...btw, Chris, really love your videos.

[@VCBird6]

Butt hurt people who didn't have guns till the panic haha

[@HWG-wm8ld]

People complain about the guns not being interesting, repeating the situation about the prices being inflated, one guy complained about his voice being monotonous. Same dudes that get told what to do by their wives and live paycheck to paycheck.
I look forward to these videos, I always learn something and Kris seems like a solid guy.

[@ADRay1999]

I actually had a chance to buy a sporterized krag however my attention was drown towards an original Winchester 1887 lever action shotgun from 1887.

[@behindenemylines3361]

I just picked up a semi-sporterized Krag rifle (a carbine length with the stock modified slightly, the rear sights removed and Redfield rear site put on it). All of the work looks it was done by a gunsmith, no bubba-work. It a one of smoothest both I have ever seen.

[@darrellgoodman9585]

I have sporterized version's of the 03A3 Springfield and the Eddystone Enfield. Even sporterized the Eddystone is twice as heavy as the Springfeild.

[@vikingsoftpaw]

Another major difference between the '03 Springfield and the Krag Jorgensen what was the bolt. The Krag has a one lug bolt, the Springfield a 2 lug locking Bolt. The Krag Jorgensen's ability to be upgraded was severely limited as it could not take the 30-06 cartridge pressures.

[@cloroxlavenderscent4307]

It was 1896 and 1898. If that carbine is an original 1898 or 1899 it's worth 2k plus. They are pretty rare.

[@electricgamez5415]

I love my FNS 9c. Great CCW pistol. Very easy to shoot accurately. That one looks barely used. A great deal at that price point

[@ronultralimitedguns635]

Thank you Chris! Very informative! Love the military rifles!

[@crktritual]

I always enjoy these videos, they are both educational AND informative...2 great things that go great together 😲🤓

[@haroldbowman1363]

Always enjoy these.

[@karlnash7105]

Always enjoy your videos.
Thank you for your time.

[@davidkohler7454]

I believe that the U.S. got out of having to pay Germany for the use of the Mauser action. But did end up paying for the Spitzer bullet.

[@swkohnle08]

Enjoyed your video as always Chris. Always learn something new. Thanks

[@JG-xt9io]

Always enjoy these videos, just stopped at the mall dunham's and rural king has no handgun ammo and very few guns. Friend of mine has a sr22 it seems to eat pretty much anything

[@mpwmu9041]

I got the M&P "1.0" in 40 range kit package. 5 years ago. Beat the shit out of that gun. Just runs. I do like the 2.0 trigger much better. I want both. 🤣 Great vids bud.

[@franzgeil7670]

Nice mix on the used gun review this week. As always your knowledge makes it very informative. I cant wait until the used gun review video comes out every Friday. Thanks a lot!

[@javagoblin1585]

Just bought a Shield EZ for my grandmother yesterday since she can't operate any of mine. Managed to pick it up WITHOUT being bent over a barrel. 399.99 including shipping. Not half bad for peak Corona / Election pricing.

[@rainbowmusic274]

I felt like I was geeking out with grandpa when it came to those rifles

[@IEraiderfan]

Chris, a great video thanks for passing on the knowledge on the firearms a great selection as always thanks stay safe. 👍👍👍

[@tuco86x]

I know it's Friday when these videos come out 😀

[@wassman27]

It was great to meet you today Chris. Now you can say a Texan brought a pew machine in your store. Awesome store even through stock was down.

[@HWG-wm8ld]

Shit man, what did ya get?

[@MarksmanTV]

Thank you for coming in! It was great meeting you as well! Pls come back in and see us when you’re back in town!

[@whitespacemarines4308]

HI Point held up "PRETTY WELL"? They tortured it in a multitude of ways and then SHOT IT!! Lol,...I would say that was REALLY well.

[@RyanLackey]

Yeah, if said I had to take one off production line randomly and go to war for a year with it with no armorer/manufacturer/gunsmith support, I'd probably pick a Hi-Point over some expensive 1911s.

[@RyanLackey]

@Mike DeGrasse Tyson Yeah, a G19 would definitely be my #1 "out of the box production pistol for a year at war" IFF it had better sights (not the plastic factory ones).

[@huckleberry602]

Enjoyable as always.👍🏻

[@rickm4295]

I love my M&P 2.0 's through an Apex trigger in there and they run and run great. That whole grip is too rough isnt a big deal at all. That seems to be something that people assume would be an issue but if you truly carry one like me you realize that is just not true

[@fredgaana9488]

great niche, dont know why anyone doesnt do this, the history, value and personal experience is great info.

[@Rugerfiend]

Love my Neos, its elegant looking like a ray gun🤣 In true Italian style it can be dressed in multiple colors. Its lower comes in black, red, blue and gray. Purple and green were available on the later deluxe model. The serial number wasn't part of the lower so grip frame change is easy.

[@Grandpadew]

I find it so interesting when you put us into a "Class In Session" status!! Great info you pass along with each of this type of videos. Keep it up.

[@kevinwalker8082]

Great again Chris, very interesting videos. Living here in UK never seen the neo before. I've just binge watched all your blogs, videos. Great to see difference from beginning to now. Keep up good work buddy

[@herman66mi83]

Very nice review. I have numerous M1 and like your historical background to the 1917; well done thank you !

[@lidlett9883]

I've heard many people ask who would depend on a high point for slf defense? I always answered back. Someone who can't afford a 400 dollar Glock.

[@cephasmartin8593]

You forgot about the Hi-Point 1095TS 10mm carbine. Talk about fun to shoot! I bought it because I got tired of waiting for Ruger to come out with a PC10 carbine ... but they did bring out the PC9 Charger. I have found that it helps to tune your SR22 magazines. It solves a lot of "ammo" problems.

[@AJ-gk7bn]

You did leave out one of the more important changes from the 1.0 to the 2.0 m&p’s which is the internal steel chassis in the frame.
Super weird that you didn’t see great sales for the 2.0’s. They’re very popular.

[@Matt-oj2kl]

I carry the rugersr22 as my conceal carry. It’s super light and 22lr at least before the pandemic was super cheap. I also use cci stingers for my carry ammo. I’ve never had a issue with good quality 22lr. Remington thunderbirds on the other hand😂

[@roberttaylor6030]

My SR22 jammed a lot I sold it and bought an M&P 22 compact which ran perfect. Then I gave the M&P to my son, so I bought the Taurus TX22 which also runs great as long as you load the mags right.

[@ftdefiance1]

Did you send the pistol to Ruger for repair?

[@roberttaylor6030]

@@ftdefiance1 No, and maybe I should have. I bought the Smith while I still owned it and had both of them for awhile then as I do every once in awhile I trade a few in for something else and it went.

[@missourirebel9669]

Not to put too fine a point on it but the Krags are from 1899 not 1999

[@fmiller5704]

I really like to have on those ruger In 450

[@kenbishop2455]

Thanks for the video.

[@seethebutter]

Thank you.

[@jajabinx519]

Love the Beretta neos...almost bought one but went with ruger mark 3 instead...thanks for the vid!

[@davidkohler7454]

You made the right choice. Ruger has always done me right. I got rid of the gay blue Neo that I had it was a 22 jambomatic.

[@asdfasdf7199]

love your videos!

[@bombero3368]

I automatically hit the like button and then watch the video.

[@showtime2629]

Didn't know they still made the Krag in the 1980s.

[@Roach1776]

fun fact at 19:24 thats the "Bolt Action Rifle" from Red Dead Redemption 1&2

[@panzerabwerkanone]

I didn't know they made Krag carbines all the way up to the 1990's ;)

[@mtm7014]

That Ruger is a good looking rifle.

[@samhicks7568]

Another great video, thanks.

[@bigbossoooo]

Love that FNs -9

[@Jinzoningen80]

The sling on that 1917 is all kind of wrong. Great vid though. 👍

[@phillipseifert694]

From a utilitarian point of view, a HiPoint would probably be just fine for most situations that a handgun is a viable tool
But I like machines that invoke a sense of wonder as I hold them

[@HWG-wm8ld]

“Probably”
If the instructor in Yuma said “your chute will probably work” on my first free fall jump, I would have hesitated to jump.

[@merlemorrison1346]

actually there were "stripper clips" developed for the Krag, but they were not commonly used.

[@stephensellers2453]

Yeet Canon

[@richardnear4160]

I have a 1898 Springfield 30/40 Krag that was sporterized. Killed a buck and a doe with it on opening day in November 2018

[@richardnear4160]

Remington and Winchester will usually make ammo for it towards hunting season.
I also reload for it

[@HWG-wm8ld]

Another educational video.

[@HWG-wm8ld]

He will be fine. Most gun shop owners have Napoleon complexes and treat customers like they don’t know Jack. He would also make a great restaurant owner. It’s nice to have a gun channel to listen to that isn’t some blowhard filming himself shooting and wearing a flannel shirt in the summer because that’s what tactical guys do bs.

[@flashgordon99999]

On the Krag I think you meant to say 1886, etc. Not 1986 LOL

[@thehoneybadger8089]

The US Krags were from the 1890s, not the 1980s😂🤣🙃🌵

[@MLMWarriors]

Cool review

[@MrWmeyer]

Let my FNS40C go...wish I had it back...Ouch!

That’s a 2.0 4” compact

Dude Garand Thumb destroyed his high point by throwing it into a rock. I wouldn't call them durable.

[@HWG-wm8ld]

Garand thumb is pee wee herman on the pin.

[@Georgiaguns]

Demo ranch shot his and it still worked

[@WALTERBROADDUS]

You get what you pay for.

As long as you don't deliberately try to break it it'll last you a while. Then again that applies to everything.

Hi-Point: The dog ugliest pistol ever conceived...

[@crktritual]

What bout the Nambu?

[@robertbare1007]

Amen, Type 94 Nambu is so ugly

[@sharpsvilleBill]

@@crktritual BUT THE NAMBU IS A WW2 CLASSIC. The Hi-Point is just butt ugly.

[@crktritual]

B Padget you are correct, I was being a smarty pants. I would consider the Hi-Point the more desirable sidearm, from a practical standpoint, though it will never be a classic like the Nambu.

[@sharpsvilleBill]

@James Cohen I don't deny that. I just stated the obvious: It's fugly.

[@MrDdd856]

Yeet cannon..not Purdy. And a brick and usually works. Po boys toy. Good people don't let their friends buy Hi points. Shameful.

[@InTheDarknessWhereIDwell]

They made revisions in "I'm sorry, 1986, 1988, and then 1989." That's a long time between revision.
