Best quote I have heard this year:”it is your responsibility to take care of your own safety”. People call me a gun nut, but I honestly believe in the comments you stated in the intro.
Also the speech about affecting your community is true.
💯
I think a significant degree of Americans have arrived at this insight, after the George F. riots swept the Nation. Firearm sales have continued to break records, continuously.
Federal, state and local law enforcement share pretty much the same view, in that it is not their responsibility to protect you.
I don’t know, the line ‘should be kicked in the nuts’ was good for the person who starts off a new shooter with a 12 gage.
I’ve worked in healthcare for 19 years now. Been a medic and in hospital. Being dispatched to emergencies I know the response times of police and fire. People need to understand exactly what you said and that is to take your safety into their own hands. The military isn’t going to save you, the police and fire will get there when they can after their done being understaffed and over called.
They are.
Its-they're.
Many health care providers continue to establish "gun free zones" until they get attacked. Only then their attitude changes. There are more good guys than bad, but trying to "feel safe" is illusion.
Yes you are your own first responder. Police can just magically snap their fingers and be everywhere we need them too the moment we do. But they do their best to help the people the serve.
Amazing how some people have this false sense of security. They'll never know true terror until they're at the mercy of their enemy.
Spent a career in Alaska law enforcement...in rural road areas even when we run code, it often takes us over an hour to get to you...or just as likely you can't call us because of cell service.
Off-road system? There's been times weather may not allow our response for a day or two...we can't help anyone if we're stuck in a storm, we're not magic or you're weathered in.
So yeah, shit hits the fan, but you better do your best until we get there.

So I'm good.
Great. 😂
The Canik MC9 doesn’t appear to be the same quality as its predecessors.
There have been issues with it and some say to wait for the Gen 2 version of the Canik MC 9
The prior Canik pistols are very highly regarded amongst serious shooters.
I want a my M1 Carbine a WW2 classic, There was also the F auto M2 used in the Korean War and also late WWII in 1945
👏
absolutely spot-on assessment with "police will only get there to write the report" and " the onus of your safety in yours, not law enforcement's" salute Honest Outlaw!

15:55 Bolt-action rifles "in longer range configurations" (.308/6.5CM/5.56 ones, Savage Axis, Ruger Predator…)
Thank YOU !!!
The bolt action rifle should be chambered in a round that can be used on medium to larger game. Thus no 5.56's. .308 Win is perfect all around.
@@MadFox-jr6by ~Exactly correct!! My friend got a new bolt-action Mossberg MVP in 5.56 in the bush for a survival type weapon. That is a very dumb move because a person wants a caliber that is good for hunting medium Deer sized game. Either a rifle in bolt-action ‘or’ lever-action 7.62x39, 44 Rem Mag, 30-30, 6.5 Creedmore, 243, 260, 7mm-08, or 308 is a minimum for hunting medium Deer sized game and larger. Especially when we also have Moose, Elk, and Black Bear here.
The Ruger Scout rifle chambered in .308 Win is an excellent option imo. They make a .350 Legend version also but you might run into ammo availability issues with that one.
@@royjohnson465You can take deer with 5.56, but you're entirely right that .308 gives you more options.
The economic aspect of the 12 GA pump is not to be understated. One great thing about a shotgun is the wide variety of ammo you can put in it which makes it kind of a one size fits all gun for somebody on a budget.
Yep you right,if you aint already have,try the ar style shotgun,fun to shoot low recoil
And if you’re really hurting on cash. You can open up the crimp on bird shot, fill it with hot wax and close it and boom. Home made slugs with 1 oz of lead, ready to go for 0.30 cents a shot!
I’ve tried it in my Fakenelli and it runs as well as unwaxed birdshot!
Yep.
You can hunt with a defense shottie if you have to.
You can defend yourself with a hunting shottie if you have to.
And there's an ammunition type for every target and situation.
@@JD-tn5lz yeah you right,pretty good defense and hunting weapon to
I’m retired from LE and the Army. You sir did an excellent job presenting your choices of five firearms and why. This is probably the best video that I have watched on this subject and the best presenter as well. Thank you.
The more of your videos I watch, I have really come to appreciate your down to earth presentations, your knowledge, and your likability. Thanks Chris.
"The world is dangerous if you like it or not." A very honest quote from a very Honest Outlaw.
Words to live by.
Whether* you like it or not.
This guy is the best gun guy on UA-cam! He has caused me to spend thousands on the guns he likes! He’s also a real good shot!!!
Hes a great shot
Best is Hickok.
" CAUSED ME TO SPEND THOUSANDS, " LMAO.
Me three! I've bought so many that he has reviewed! 😂😂
@@DS..69 he definitley smokes alot of pots
Not only is the content super informative, as usual. It’s great advice with clear logic. Lastly, your message towards the end is more caring and uplifting than 100 of our ridiculous politicians. Thank you.
Very well-put. I appreciate the nod to bolt actions as a self defense tool. They do lots of things better than most people give them credit for.
"You cannot just hope your way out of a problem. Problems will eventually happen." BRILLIANT!
As a Cop I tell people all the time that we will always come to help you as fast as we can. However, a lot of the time we do not even know people need help until after the threat has ended and people are hurt. That’s why I agree you must be responsible to keep you and your family safe. Great video
5 minutes bare minimum, and that's if you live in a major city with a large police force. A lot can happen in 5 minutes.
Dude I’m a cop and say the same. I live in a pretty antigun state and a lot of people are scared to get into guns because of it. So when I go to calls where people are concerned about stalkers or something like that…. I ALWAYS ask them if they’ve considered a firearm. They just don’t know how to get into it and where to start.
@@benn454thats assuming someone calls lol
When seconds count, police are minutes away.... Nothing against police it means they cant be everywhere every second!!!!
I heard a Florida Sheriff put it this way.
"When seconds count, the Sheriff's Department will be there in minutes!"
Chris, I gotta tell you, your efforts are truly making the world a better place. I want to thank you sincerely, things are bad, they seem to be getting worse, more and more I feel like my values, principles and priorities are not prioritized by those around me, but your voice tells me I am not alone in this. Thank you, good sir. God bless you and yours.
I don't believe things are worse but the news coverage is just much better
It’s your responsibility to take care of your own safety 👏. This guys deserves a subscribed 👍.
When I first got into firearm ownership a couple years ago I started almost exclusively following this channel and I’m reminded every week why this is the most quality and informative content on UA-cam for this community
I came here with a lifetime of experience so I'll go ahead and tell you that you made the right move. This fine man is spreading the correct knowledge and mindset
You and MrGunsnGear are doing amazing work catering new shooters. Keep it up.
Hell yeah 😎. People need to wake up!!! No one is safe anymore.. Real men and women, do whatever it takes to protect the ones they love. ❤
I just spent 4x the cost of my AR-15 in ammo after I heard lake city will be sending their ammo designed for civilian contacts to Europe and other places. 😮
Hope things get better at lest we good
Big supporter of your work
I remember the covid gun buying craze. Never in recorded history was there so many new gun owners. I remember guys saying how they planned on buying like new guns after the hysteria was over, yet not many got rid of their newly acquired firearms.
I feel like the 9mm PCC should have been mentioned. It's SUCH a versatile platform. It can Essentially replace the 22LR. Cheap 9mm ammo runs about 25cents a round. They're small, lightweight, easy to shoot and they can do everything from training, plinking, defense, even Hunting if you know what you're doing. And small enough you can stuff one into a backpack and go unnoticed. I have a ton of firearms for different purposes but I feel like the PCC is a pretty viable 1 gun option.
Just built one from. Scratch shoots awesome.
Good advice, I have several of the exact models you recommend, including the Mossberg 88, and a 10-22. My daily carry is a Ruger LC9, I have my trusty AR at the front of my safe, and a Remington 700 in 30-06 at the back for deer season.
A sword in the hands of a righteous man becomes a shield for the innocent.
Fuckin A right
Should be an electronic poster, let alone a for ever wall poster!!!!!
I'd be the first to promote that!!
In any form!!!!!
I’m sending that thought to my grandson.
A knife in a gun fight is a losing proposition.
I have a 22 on an AR platform that turned my daughter in a range freak at only 10 years old. Best gun purchase of my life by far
Great content!
Which one ?
Waiting for my daughter to be old enough for my range, I can’t wait
We did the same. I got one that came with a bipod to support the barrel , otherwise it was too heavy for them to support.
As the twig is bent so grows the tree
Every once in a while you stumble around on UA-cam and find someone who knows about what they are talking about. This fellow speaks the truth. So, I Subscribed, Liked, and clicked the bell.
Same
For me, home defense is handled by a locked up, but quickly accessible fully loaded Standard Arms DP-12 Shotgun with a Holosun "Shake and Wake" green optic sight as well as a pressure switch operated stream light. With 16 shells fully loaded and 2 shots per pump, it's quite formidable. And that is backed up by an also fully loaded, locked up Glock 34 in 9mm with the same accessories. Great video with some excellent advice!
I love your message at the end about being a positive change. The last damn thing we need is the gun community leading the charge in to crazy town (like many have been for the last several years). SHTF preparation should be something we aspire to do, but never use. Not something we do, then aspire to find an excuse to use. We need to be the reasonable people in the room, not the assholes agitating conflict over every single culture war nonsense issue, then screaming about our guns whenever someone disagrees with us on something or something doesn't go our way.
100%
SHTF preparation comes in real handy when a tree falls on your house, or you lose your job, or you have a major medical issue, or a hurricane floods your property and your house is condemned.
Assuming of course that one's SHTF preps didn't start and end with an unhelpful number of AR15s and ammo and armor.
Well said.
I like guns. I don’t necessarily like all gun advocates.
I’m only upset i couldn’t like this comment more than once
Sounds like a defeatist attitude and i don't like it. It is a clown world out here. Someday, someone is going to restore order.
I’m a fairly new gun owner (about six weeks) by watching this channel I have become familiar with the four guns I’ve purchased. My girlfriend and I now shoot every Sunday and I show her how to assemble, and clean them. Thanks for all the advice you’ve given.
I’d recommend watching T-Rex arms as well since you’re a new gun owner
That's really good, man. You don't need to necessarily disassemble/assemble super often with your firearms if you're doing a breakdown/cleaning properly, but it's great to build familiarity. Idk what kind of firearms you have, and no one needs to know, but I hope you're not stressing the budget if you have higher priced calibers. If you want to work on marksmanship, I would suggest higher volume at the range with a .22. With a high quality rifle, you can fire any .22 ammo without problems. I personally have an hk416 and it has Always shot sweet. First 500 rounds were total budget bullets and not a single one misfires, whereas with my ruger .22 LR pistol, I would misfire on 4 of 10 rounds with the same ammunition
@@TheMistaneff i know they dont build things like they used to and my ruger is older than i am(which sadly means it wont accept anything over the 10 shot mags... without becoming a jamfactory...) but even with the ejector having busted and kicking about half of it some time back it still fires reliably and cycles just fine after i put it back to the correct facing(had gotten backwards at some point and was sticking out the back of the receiver?) didnt know much about the rifle growing up and aside the most basic of cleaning it had never had a full tear down and deep clean till some years ago at which point i decided to look up a diagram of it to see what this weird lever looking bit was only to find out it was what was left of the ejector haha. cant say on their pistols as mine is an ancient rifle but it has never given me trouble with misfires even with rounds that a buddies curious bullpup .22 wouldnt fire.
@@clintkees6158 If your ruger has a busted ejector (and from the 10 rd mag comment, I'm guessing it's a 10/22), CALL RUGER. They have one of the very best customer service programs in the industry, and they'll fix your Ruger no matter HOW old it is. Failing all else, (if it's a 10/22) buy a new Ruger BX trigger group and drop it in - two pins - it comes with the extractor installed.
But I'd call Ruger first. Heck, I'm an FFL, and when my wife's Mark II broke the hammer strut assembly I called Ruger to order a new one. They told me to send it in because it needed to be fitted by a gunsmith, and they tightened up the whole gun while they had it! (gun probably had 20,000+ rounds through it by then; she'd gotten it used). shoots great now.
Beautiful love story.
I CANNOT BELIEVE I’ve never seen your channel before bro! I got some binge watching to do this weekend, some of the best gun content I’ve ever seen!!! Hell yeah
I love how you break things down so well. You really think things through and you have a good moral compass as well. Thanks for the education!
This list is exactly the "6 Guns everyone needs" that I have told people time and time again. The only difference is that I don't put an "or" between a .22 pistol and .22 rifle, I feel that it's important to have both.
Especially if you have kids
@@abstractapproach634Or squirrels 😉
@@JackFalltrades Or live in the hood.🙄
TX22 competition model with a red dot is a very nice .22 that actually holds some rounds. It may be a Taurus but just look at the reviews. It's a slick accurate pistol. Now if you own a p365 or 320 go with a p322 it will help you with your training and accuracy because it's just a tad small version and controls are the same. Great practice pistol for sigs
@@POSSUM3K3nah Taurus is junk, Glock 44 all the way.
“You can’t just hope your way out of a situation” 💯 facts
Be kind to your neighbor…if only we could all do that. It would change the world.
We sincerely appreciate you, brother!
While hunting in N Canada, my semi-auto shotgun ran into mechanical issues, and it became a very expensive single shot. I got back home, fixed it, and sold it, and bought a Mossberg 500 and a maverick 88. My Maverick 88 has been dropped in a swamp, ran over by a pick up, been in countless blizzards, gotten soaking wet in the rain, and gummed up with mud. After countless upland bird hunts and waterfowl hunts, It still works flawlessly after 15 years. I highly recommend them.
Yes.. cant beat them.
BTW what kind of PU did you run over with? Just askin.
@@terry_willis Silverado 1500. It was leaning on the tail gate and my buddy hit reverse and it fell on the ground
@@StroalOutdoors Now that's what you call a torture test.
What was the semi auto?
You mentioned something you just can't overemphasize. Casual shooters need to know that training doesn't just mean taking a course. It means practicing frequently. I had extensive training and over 50 years of shooting experience. When I was forced into retirement by a heart attack last year, I just could not shoot for well over a year. The first time I got back out to the range, I couldn't even hit the target. I didn't even realize for a while that I had slipped into using a grip, stance and shooting techniques I haven't used since the 1970s. My breathing was wrong, and I couldn't stay on the target. All my old instructors and buddies were right - shooting is truly a perishable skill.
Another important point is having a few .22s to teach your kids. I was glad you included that. All of my kids learned on .22s.
Firearms have been part of my professions since I was 17years old.
I'm in my 50's now, and I still live train three of four times a week...and 75% of what I shoot is .22LR.
It gets the reps in and frankly, fundamentals are fundamentals whether you shoot .50AE or .22LR.
Yup I learned on a bolt .22lr rifle and a Colt single action .22lr revolver. The revolver was my Grandpa’s and my dad bought the rifle for me to learn on. Dad used to soot the mongoose in the back yard with a .22lr growing up because Grandpa had chickens
You can spread the love that was one statement I truly adored
Best firearms reviews on UA-cam. Keep doing what you do. It is much appreciated.
When trouble comes unexpectedly, nobody is coming to help. The 2A protects us all! Never let them take it away.
Word!
Isreal learned that fast
@@TucoTheKillerI learned that when the police were told to stand down during the riots in Minnesota.
Not long before, a TV talking head said we don't need guns. The police will protect us!
2A didn't protect us from Trump.
About a year or so ago this channel woke me up. I've always been pro gun but I never daily carried. After some inspiration from THE honest outlaw when I found this channel by accident. Now I carry, so does my wife, so does my brother, and my dad, and even my mom and grandma. My family is safer thanks to u Chris. Preciate ya. ❤
I live in an area where you should make the assumption the other person is armed. An armed society is a polite society. I called out a tree trimming guy, he comes out and has a gun on his hip. A/C guy, same. It is safer that way, most people are good people and in the event a bad person does something the more people with firearms that know how to use them safely the less likely the bad man is going to get away with victimizing anyone.
Awesome!
Real men size up the situation then react accordingly... Thank you for being one of those Real Men 🔥🙌🙏❤️
Agree 100 on the maverick 88. Cheapest one i own and love it the most.
Which “flavor” of the Mav 88 are you using in the video?
I own 2! Great 12g!
Great advice! Glad to have someone like you to put content like this out to people that need to take it in consideration.
I was a Drill Sgt in the Army
I am a firm believer in self-defense. A weapons instructor I'm have taught a lot civilians over the years. 3 things you need to do. .Practice, Practice and Practice.
Sure, I agree if you have time. If you just want a simple self defense gun to store for just in case then get a revolver. Just pull trigger and it goes bang. In the night not much practice will help you aim so be careful....
I’m new to shotguns but in doing some research the choice for me was simple. So, I picked up the Mossberg Maverick 88 this week. They confirmed that it’s their #1 seller for simple, affordable and effective home protection.
Research: Standard Arms DP-12. Its bad-ass.
I appreciate this channel for actually reviewing and recommended reasonably priced guns. Too many channels are about bling.
My favorite new quote "one for each of them, you can share the love!" GLORIOUS!!!
Very true with a semi auto rifle, I told a friend who had never really shot before how to align the sights, had him shoot a few up close to see how he handled it, then took him to a 300 yard steel target in the next bay. After his first 5 he was consistently pinging steel at 300 yards with like 10 mins of instruction.
Super informative. This is first video of his I watched, and I will be looking to more of his videos. Not only cause of the straight up front information but for the simple delivery for the first time shooter out there trying to get information and scared to ask questions for the feeling of being dumb. He has a great delivery of information, for all levels of gun knowledge. I am seriously impressed and cant say enough to the level of comfort, info and familiarity this video has for all levels of gun enthusiasts. Cant wait for more videos.
Got a fan for life.
Thank you for you taking out your time and effort to help teach everyone whether they're new or misinformed. Keep up the good work!
I’ve had multiple of each one of these since I was 18, back when you could get a pistol at 18 in NY. Love the videos and thank you for your input and expertise.
That last part is so true, sure the world is seemingly burning but bringing up the spirits and the hope of people around you is and being a beacon for them is important to not let them fall into a spiral of dispair.
Like what you’re saying in this video , I hope others will . I am an engineer combat veteran . I’ve always been on guard for my family and always will be. I feel for people that are truly afraid of guns.. the answer there is practice with them . Which is what I believe you said in this message. Thank you.
the more i practice with the walther ppqm2 the less i want to carry it appendix. so its a bedside gun. or if i know im going to a bad neighborhood gun.
This is probably the best firearms video I've seen as far as suggestions. You cover a lot of ground in a short time. Also, you are reaching a large group of gun owners regardless of experience as well as budget. I really appreciate this video and I've subscribed.
You haven't made a video that I don't like. This one, BEST EVER before you even mentioned a specific gun brand. Keep it up.
"Peaceful, not harmless" and "Do no harm but take no shit" are two mantras I've seen floating around that come to mind with your message in the video - i.e. looking at self-defense in an honest and objective matter. A lot of gun culture is unfortunately tied up with aggro nonsense and bad advice but the fact is self-defense is a human right. I appreciate your channel being one that cuts through the bullshit and puts out straightforward reviews and advice.
This is one of my favorite channels on UA-cam. Just good solid advice and honest opinions. Good shit bro
Glad you mentioned the Sig P365, great gun!
I am surprised you didn't mention PSA and their $350 ish AR15. I'd do that over the BCA anyday
My psa's have thousands of rounds through them. My first was a bca upper that didnt make it 700 rounds before i sent it back. Too many problems to list here but they were cool enough to give me a refund like 6 months later. I can't imagine anyone else doing that.
BCA has had SO MANY ISSSUES! That was a Shocker....
Nuh uh. Stockpile Hi Points.
They're problem solvers.
Indeed!!
Ugly sure but HI points do work.
Better than a Stapler, just barely 😢
It's not a bad idea if you really think about it. Everyone is carrying 9mm mostly, but it's not bad to have a few Hi-points in other calibers if...IF something happens to the 9mm supplies and all you can find is other calibers. The Hi-point CF 380 is identical to their 9mm Hi-point, except for the barrel and spring. Even the 9mm mag is identical to the 380 mag. You can pick up the barrel and spring for 25 bucks, allowing you to convert the .380 to 9mm without buying a whole new gun. The 10mm Hi-point can also fire the .40 s&w without any mods. All Hi-points are +P rated too.
In ww2 the Aussies were using Lee Enfield 303 bolt actions and firing so quick that the Germans thought the Aussies were using machine guns. The Enfield has a spring loaded bolt that helps reload quicker. Great firearm.
Fantastic video with a great message. I believe as a caring, lawful, member of society it is your civic duty to protect your family and the people around you. Stand together in love, train well, be prepared,and hope you never have to use those tools.
I've been watching your videos for a long time. You are one of the few Guntubers I keep coming back to because outside of 2A stuff I am for to the other end of the political spectrum from most gun peeps I meet. I appreciate your words at the end. Help your self, help your neighbor, help your community. Protect everyone you can. Change in incremental, together we can accomplish more. Thanks.
Also, he's not a salesperson.!! No B.S. reviews!!
YES YOU CAN! Thank you for telling everyone that, we all need to do our part to make this country better.
It's slowly eroding away to nothing thanks to the liberals.
Thanks for taking the time to help brother
Nice to hear a gun enthusiast, who isn't nuts. Thanks for the refresher and the positivity.
I love my Mossberg 88 and I actually prefer its loading gate as it doesn't have that spring-loaded ramp that I always get pinched on or get my gloves caught in. Especially under a stressful situation I totally prefer it as I avoid my personal malfunctions.
I agree. Same with the 500.
I need to update my shotgun from my old 1200
The only thing I dislike about the 88 is the safety, a cross tang would be easier to engage in both directions
@@RustyShackle1776 100% never understood the spring loaded mechanisms.
Brother, you are one of the best gun reviewers on the internet, and your advice is solid,sensible,and well thought out. Thank you for what youre doing for people.
Chris, you, your wife and other guests make this a great platform to learn from. God bless y'all and thanks👌%
Best gun channel IMO. Been subscribed since the beginning. Keep up the awesome reviews and positive messages
a Glock in 9mm, Mossberg in 12 gauge. PSA AR15 for $350, PSA AR10 for $600, and a 10-22
That’s a great list
Kudos on the Mossberg pump. Low maintenance..high reliability, high lethality in close quarters. The Mossberg 500 Security Combo is an excellent choice if you want a long barrel for hunting as well.
Prefer a semiautomatic shotgun. Benelli M4 was expensive over a decade or more ago. Still works flawlessly.
I have a Tristar Cobra 3 and I love it. It has been very reliable and holds up well. The only problem is it really doesn’t like 3” shells. It will cycle them but you really have to make sure you slide the pump fully to the rear and fully forward. For a $300 price tag, it’s a really good buy.
I'm ex military and I learned a lot from this video. Great job. Keep educating us. God knows we need it.
I've been watching for quite a bit now and shooting even longer, and I think this is one of my favorite videos. You did a great job of outlining not just what you recommend people have, but why and each items functionality. I am a big fan of what you stand for and love your desire to give honest education to people that need it. Thank you!
This is probably the most informative, fact based, well put together firearm video I’ve watched in a while. I grew up shooting but am just now getting back into it with the purchase of my radical ar15 and want to get my wife involved and trained. Great video. Great information. All around good work.
I really appreciate your no BS matter of fact approach to everything gun related.
I really enjoy your no nonsense down to earth videos. Great job!
"Real men fight to win." - Honest Outlaw
"And to win, they fight dirty..." - Me
Very informative to people who aren't very knowledgeable in firearms or are! I always learn someting new from your videos. Also I've watched the backlog videos, I have no doubt people will be able look into some options with how descriptive and battle tested your recommendations are! Thank you for being you and doing what you do!! I always look forward to your videos😀
SC now has Constitutional Carry as well.
It always starts with the community stay positive and safe everyone
Thank you, Chris! Everyone needs to hear this and believe it. I was fortunate my family believed in self protection and now am leading in my sphere of influence to promote that way of thought
I honestly love, appreciate, and agree with everything you said about the reasons to own a gun, especially now. The viewpoints you have as well as not being those people who always push for the most expensive guns. Being humble and learning the platform with a 22 LR is exactly how I want to teach my nephew. You and your wife do such great work 👏 take care and God bless 🙌
I can agree with everything except the Mossberg Mav 88. I don't think I will ever repurchase another Mossberg. I bought a Mav 88 Security a few years ago. The 3rd shell I fired through it, the extractor broke. I called Mossberg to see if they would replace it and was told no, it had probably failed due to improper maintenance and storage of the firearm. Mind you, I bought this shotgun at a gun store and immediately took it to the firing range inside this gun store. The time between purchasing the firearm and the extractor breaking was maybe 20 minutes, at the most. After battling them to get them to stick to their warranty for a few weeks, I shot it with my 300 win mag a couple times and cut it up into pieces. Spend the extra money and buy a Remington 870 express tactical. usually in the $400 range.
I was a small business firearms dealer from 1982-2002. I sold all brands and by far Mossberg shotguns had the worst failure rate due to poor quality parts, finish, and workmanship. They had almost non-existent quality control.
That said, there are many of them out there that are work horses.
@kevinkelly1529 I understand that things break. Sometimes it is the user's fault. Other times, it is manufacturer error. But it was the customer service that turned me away from Mossberg.
I absolutely live my model 88, had it since I was 14, currently 29 and easily ran well over 6,000+ shells through it with no issues, I used it as a trapshoot gun and was out performing those with multiple thousand dollars guns. I definitely recommend the model 88
Well said Sir! Great informative video for the masses! Thanks for all you and Mrs. Outlaw do! I believe your both in this UA-cam thing for putting out quality information that's not bought and paid for by the firearm industry. The fact that your channel is big enough to create an income stream for you two is a great thing! I for one have come to value the opinions expressed in your videos on top of all the other guntubers out there! Thanks for keeping it real!!
Good advice and well delivered. As a retired LEO, I will say that you definitely need to be able to fend for yourself until the police arrive. The way things are going these days it might be IF they arrive.
Probably a good chance it will be Leo
Not sure why people say 'nowadays'. I grew up in and around Gary, IN as a teenager during the 60s and today is no different than the drug/gang culture years.
@@kennethcurtis1856 You are saying that with mindset of someone from the 60's. Today people are ACTIVELY pursuing the path to take away your rights to defend yourself... as in people have made careers where their only pursuit in life is to take away your rights. This includes not only 2fa, but your right to come out innocent at the end of a self-defense trial.
@@jong2359He's pointing out that violent crimes against strangers is probably less likely now than the 60s-90s. Also you know gun laws outside of a few states are actually looser in alot of ways, CCWs, for instance, stand your ground laws, etc.
@@justalurker3489 not sure where you came to that conclusion, since he clearly stated "no different." There is not a single state that has loosened their laws, they have only provided the slack with which to hang yourself with (CCW, stand your ground law, etc.)
Thank you for this video, especially the end. Great work.
Got a radical fr-16 for 475 and best purchase I’ve done I recto y also got a h&k 416 22LR just to pair it and although more expensive I gotta say they’re true bang for the buck rifles
Chris is by far the best 2A advocate that we have. Instead of focusing on divisiveness, he focuses on positivity. He delivers truth is a manner that makes me proud. I'm a Black Chicagoan who enjoys hunting/shooting and outdoors. I also work in law enforcement and I'm so proud of the way this guy handles business and reaches out to people across the entire spectrum.
Great job, Chris!
There is a saying that I really like: When seconds count, the police are only minutes away. Be ready to take care of yourself and your loved ones.
Your words on community and helping others have continuously impacted my outlook on our future not only as Americans but as people. Bless you and your Family!
A great video SIR!!!!! The lady at the end of this video was making the targets sing!!! Good job girl....
Love the ideals shared in the beginning! Liked just for that. Gun list was an extra. Thanks!
Well said man, I'm always watching you from Chile, in where own a gun is restricted just only for 2 as personal defense, and for a 100 amo each once a year. This is basics, next step (on which I'm) is about sportsman shooting and hunting, on which your able to have 6 gun restricted to pistols, revolvers and shotguns, and so, buying 3000 amo each. Said this, I'm on the 8 gun permission and enjoy your reviews. Of courseI have two 1911, one of them a Colt from 1914, a Mossberg 500 ( pistol grip) and a G2c ( among others) which I bought after saw your honest review. All the best for you man, Cheers.
I'm a budget prepper and bought the first three new, I feel comfortable with what I have, anything else I see as a luxury. I'd also like to add that you should have at least 1000 rounds for each in a shtf scenario. Great video!!
Same here. My gun collection in total cost less than someone's over done ar 15 lol. I have everything I need to protect my family from potential threats.
@@g8rayrr So, in your mind what specifically comprises an "overdone AR"?
@derekheuring2984 anything over 500 bucks lol.
It's better to have 1 gun and 1000 rounds than 3 guns and 50 rounds.
Competent instruction is super important.
Good practice can be done with dry fire. Use snap caps. They cost $10-$20. And follow up with real rounds. Snap caps don't train recoil management.
I've learned so much from you, I genuinely appreciate the knowledge you share. Many thanks Honest Outlaw!
Great Video Outlaw. It makes me so happy to see you handling business and training with your wife. I really dig it bro 🤘🏼
My 5 before finishing the video any order
A 5.56/223 rifle
A ccw/fighting pistol
Pump 12 gauge
Long range rifle 308/6.5 or 300wm
A semi auto 22 rifle
@mrimd4643 while I have a soft spot for the 7.62x39, 5.56 is just mote plentiful and can shoot a little farther.
06 is nice but 308 can be bfpu if needed since it's NATO as is the winny. I said 6.5 because it shoots so much nicer than 308
I would have the same list. But I am slowly changing a couple things base off reasons and situations. Urban fighting in NYC or Alaska survival, or bugging out in the country.
I change the 22 with the ar. Because of conversions kits. I get 556 and 22. For a general purpose like your list.
@calebgilmer5250 it's always mission dependent like I said in no certain order. One note though see how your rifle shoots with the conversion mine is good for playing around but not sure if it's good enough for foraging as much as a dedicated 22
@@desperado8605 for practice, training, and close distance hunting. From my knowledge is good enough or solid on all of these. But with 22 lr conversion kit. It makes it a 2 for 1 rifle. Then you can get full size pistol, a PCC or etc. If you can afford 5 gun plus extra stuff( scope, mags, etc)
@@mrimd4643 I understand the ak don't get me wrong. But if you are in the us. It honestly should be the AR. Because it America rifle. So much support for it. Military, le and everyone else uses the flatform. On the otherhand if in middle east . Most definitely will be AK. Because the ak is the AR in the middle east. If that makes any sense
I'm 71, and never until the last 6-7 months felt vulnerable. I bought my 1st pistol about a month ago...a LE trade-in S&W .40, from Palmetto State Armory. Got about a magazine through it getting familiar with my new toy. And I just bought 4 different brands and weights of ammo, so I can figure out what it likes best. But the worst of it is, I feel the absolute necessity of packing for the first time in my young life. That sucks, large by wide.
My Father is 74. After the he survived the stomach cancer i gave him my .357 magnum to keep. He has the side permit for it in Finland. Now after no stomach but in ok condition he could still use it. Funny story he bought me the gun at age my age 15 or 16 (Now i am 45). He got special permit for me in Finland because i was so young. Now he is old and can use it if needed until he dies. It is not so easy to get permits to guns in Finland. If i had choise i would have given him my Glock 17 with red dot sight.
This video definitely had me smash that like and subscribe button! Good shit man, really appreciate the overall message you are sending.
Very good. A catastrophic fall and me turning 65, if I'm fighting fare, I have already lost, I carry. Thank you. God Bless and stay safe.
I nominate you to be our 2nd amendment ambassador! Extremely knowledgeable factual advice and levelheaded regarding arms! Theres too many sensitive people making laws about how we defend ourselves today with no real sense of reality, what it takes to keep loved ones safe. Counting on the police to get there in time significantly lowers your survival chances to likely 50/50 or worse You get it great video brother! 👍👍👍
