Ok yea your right 45 is slower than 9mm, and so on but not slow enough that people can dodge it like the freakin matrix ok same with a 380 so im comfident that you can effectively defend yourself and your home wether you choose to use a 22 or a 380 or a 40 or a 45 or a 9 period. People dont listen to this dipshit use whatever makes you happy, what you can shoot effectively and is reliable for you. Everyone is different. And you dont need a 22 roynd mag to defend youself. 10 rds in a sub compact like glock 26 or p365x or even an m&p shield 2.0 or shit even glock 380 can be used to protect yourself. This moron thinks that you need to carry a full size pistol with 20+ rounds is what you need to carry and hes sadly mistaken and misleading in a horribke way DONT LISTEN TO THIS DIPSHIT
I’m not here to talk trash but to learn. After a few random videos, i see that you are systematic and rather comprehensive in your information presentation, while calling out bs. I’m planning to sit down with your channel and a notebook for about a week. Then begin implementation. Thank you for your service.
Oh, the Hackathorn reference! Finally, someone addressed that with a reference to his marketed sights. Lol. The pause and comment made it worth the whole vid. Nevermind all of the other great content.
I know a lot of gun owners love running smaller guns as their "duty/everyday carry"weapon but I prefer full size because I'm a bigger man and I can still iwb conceal. Plus I shoot well with full sized pistols. So I carry a Beretta 92x rdo with orange trijicon HD night sights and the aftermarket trigger that they put in the performance model in my handgun as well.
The events of 2014 changed my thought process on duty pistols. I swapped from the 1911 in .45 ( that I'd been carrying forever) to the 2011 in 9mm. Same gun, more hate on tap to distribute as needed. Add a red dot in 20 for aging eyes and thats where I am. XC with X300V w/DG switch and Trijicon RMR HD red dot. Not cheap but i like me a lot.😅
Another great & informative video. Really appreciate the no BS 'real world' information. Love my CZ P07 & P01 also. Getting ready to pick up a Springfield Echelon, the optics mounting without plates is appealing. Stay safe out there.
A weird quirk about glock mags, I've noticed in a P80 compact build (over 2000 rounds with a grand total of 3 malfunctions, 2 of which was the ammo. One was a heavier recoil spring I since stopped using. It's reliable), glock mags rattling is the most annoying crap ever. I had one 15 round gen 5 glock 19 mag that would not stop rattling no matter how hard I tried between unloading and reloading, and tapping the bottom when fully loaded. The mags that didn't rattle when fully loaded did rattle when the top round was chambered, and 14 were left in the magazine. Loaded firearm may as well be maracas when shaken. Magpul's gl9 15 round does not do this. Magpul gl9 feed lip design is such that the top cartridge's extraction rim was shrouded from getting caught on the rear wall of the magazine slot (at least in the pf940c frame), while the OEM mag geometry does allow that to happen. Essentially, using the magpul gl9 was like having a magwell without adding a magwell with this particular frame where I could miss the magwell by a half inch to the rear, and it will still slide right into the grip where the top cartridge from an OEM mag will get caught. Also, most of those 2000+ rounds went through the same two magpul magazines I marked for range/training use that I haven't cleaned since the day I bought them. They're caked and baked in carbon from HSTs, fort scott TUIs, underwood extreme defenders, blazers, federal white box, barnes, lawmans, purple and red federal syntechs just out of curiosity for how long will they go. Anyway, all this to say I have a reason for using magpul mags in EDC for it's lack of reliability issues thus far, smoother reloading in a particular firearm, and not sounding like a mariachi band member when walking around. The low price is alright too I guess, but not that much of a priority since it's not like we're dealing with HK magazine prices here.
I agree I hate the glocl mag rattle one of the perks of the extensions is it can* get rid of it. I too have found the magpul mags to be utterly reliable, it's used to be the same way but recently I have noticed some unreliable stuff from them, amend 2 is decent but foe the price I'll roll magpul
Good Video! Good explanation as always. My duty is. CZ P-09 9mm with a threaded barrel and rds, x300 turbo. I can carry 26 rounds of Fort Scott 80gr+p TUI in the gun at once with a +5 base plate for SHTF. If it's in a Home defense load out I run seismic 185gr (9mm) NATO. I have over 11k rounds in my P-07 set up similarly. My P-09 only has 2k rounds but I trust it. True duty guns, primary machine slide work, DPM Spring System flatens and increases reliability.
The good thing about "Freedom" is that we all have the freedom to have our own little opinions. Caliber is not nearly as important as the gun that you have, meaning.......You are confident with that gun, it's the one you can afford, it's 100% reliable, you train with it regularly and you are very proficient with the gun. I would be more afraid of a guy that trains every week with a 22LR than a guy that uses the latest and greatest nato round but doesn't train very much. So, it all depends on one's situation. Not to mention....for me, a handgun is only to be used to get me to my rifle.
it’s like all the improvements made to the 9mm that made hollow point 9mm work as well as 45 acp ball, didn’t also happen to the 45 acp hollow points too.
I think the problem with it is that they had to start with a “hack” - modifying the basics because the round itself was from the get-go too slow to *reliably* expand. I love 45ACP, but if I was a LEO, I’d run 40 or 9mm.
When I first became an LEO in 1989, I had to provide my own duty weapon (S&W Gen 3 9mm). One department had an 'approved for duty list'. My last one didn't. If I could qualify with it, I could carry it. Except for a 1911. My Chief didn't understand the 1911, so... In 2003 my department standardized on G22 and G23 duty weapons. I chose the G22, and proceeded to shoot 6 perfect scores of '100' during qualification. We used the Safariland Raptor duty holster. Ammo: HORNADY 124gr XTP +P
If you want a really good 10mm experience, I'll highly recommend the Sig P320 XTEN. It's a little heavier, because of the bull barrel, but shoots bear load 10mm, and feels like a 9mm. It's one of the pistols with which I am most accurate.
Good video as always. I didn't agree with every single point, but that's okay - the important points of carrying what is dependable and what you are good with, are spot on. I'm also starting to wonder something else... It almost seems like 40 S&W is making a quiet comeback. I have spoken to a lot of people that are switching back to it recently because they just like it better. I'm just getting into that caliber, I'm still a 45 guy at heart, and I carry 9mm quite a bit, but the 40 gives me the smaller pistol with big bore performance. I've had several back surgeries and there's some nerve damage and a lot of pain and carrying the 45 or 10 mm is kind of hard to do because of the larger frames. Anyway, keep on coming!
I mean, game on for you and your area, but most box stores where I am at aren't stocking them. A decently duty oriented store near me literally has a 10:1 ratio of 9mm duty and defense ammo compared to .40. It's dead around here; I just never saw the interest when some guns don't last as long compared to 9mm and .45.
@@johnemmert9012 yeah, I don't know. Here, in the western part of Virginia, I'm seeing more different 40 loadings than I've seen in a long time showing up every month. Obviously, 9 mm has the most because it's the "darling" right now. The surprising part, though, is I'm saying 10mm go down again. I was just telling one of the shops I get ammo at, that I was glad I had stocked up a few years ago on 10 mm. It kind of saw resurgence, and there for a while I could find several loadings at any time, but now most places only have one or two.
@@johnemmert9012 the interest for me is in the size of the gun. Yes, there is more wear on 40. But I have learned over the past couple of years that that's somewhat of a myth, most people will never shoot it enough to wear it out. And I haven't seen much wear on my Glock from shooting it quite a bit, no more than anything else. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, I'm just saying I'm not really seeing it. But the big thing is the frame sizes. It's hard for me with my back to carry 45 size frames comfortably. I will carry nine, and I have a number of 9 mm pistols. I just don't like the caliber as well. Here's the problem. 9 mm can be quite effective, but in order to get the performance, you have to use +p or +p+. And if you want to talk about wear and damage to pistols, there you go. And I have seen quite a bit of wear on a couple of mine from shooting +p. It's almost kind of a no win situation with smaller pistols, until you get into the bigger frames.
I normally don’t comment, but try to catch every one of your videos.. I love listening to your opinions. I’ve been loving the Glock 45s, they are perfect for me. Also, primary arms is awesome! They have great sales and have excellent shipping times/customer service.
I appreciate your support I agree the 45 is the best glock for me from CC in shorts to on duty to on the range in a class teaching or learning it's my do all
As always spot on Uncle! Thanks for having the balls to say it! Technology has come a long way. I see people shoot guns every week day in and day out. The key is practice, practice, practice, people you have to go shoot! If you haven’t fired your weapon in weeks or months you need to go shoot! I literally have had someone tell me I’m ready for anything even though they admitted to not having fired their carry gun in months! I just had to say keep it in the holster!😊
Thanks for the video; get your p07 and p09 optic cut CZ is the way hammer gun for concealed for the win. The P-01 is similar weight to the p07 but all metal check one out fine sir. Good info as usual.
Quick question: Does your Dept. dictate what your ON Duty sidearm has to be? The reason I ask is, a few years ago, I had an encounter with a MN DNR 'Game Warden' while I was open carrying one of my Springfield 1911's. During our discusion, he said, "Damn, I wish I could carry a 1911 on duty!" I replied, "Why not?", then went onto explain the thing that I hadn't considered. He replied, "Commonality/standardization." If need be, I can grab a magazine from an officer that may be 'down', if I need to." Keep your videos coming!
Hey bud…question? First off, i’m so glad I watched this video before making this purchase just in case. I trust your judgment on ballistics 100% You stated 9mm is a max grain weight of 150. This place in Houston called 2a warehouse is selling a 165 grain 9mm projectile. I’ve never purchased anything from them and found that odd that I’ve never seen a 165 grain 9mm What’s your take on that load for suppressed use? I’d appreciate your feedback and thanks for all that you’re doing My Man!
I appreciate you covering other calibers. It may be a stupid reason, but my "duty" weapon is .45acp because I'm trying to keep as much of my hearing as possible, and it being a lower velocity round, 12-15db inside a building actually makes a hell of a difference, take it from a sound guy and musician. But I'll freely admit if my duty changed to something more action directed, I'd rather have a 9mm with more capacity. As you say, it's just up to each person's version of duty, as long as it's reliable
If I want the overall best Duty Gun , I am going with the Sig P-226, X-5 Legion , but I have been a P-226 owner since 1988 when I bought the W.German version and yeah it was my first 9mm semi , but damn it just shot like a house on fire right out of the box , basically it was intuitive , I just pointed the damn thing instinctively and hit with amazing accuracy , so I am a P-226 Fan all the way !
😂 yep we had the - you won’t see the difference in gel - exchange. Just for my sanity, is that statement based on Real Clear Ballistics? If so, I agree. And on top your favorite 135 Critical Duty will level the playing field due to its limited expansion. Thanks for the great videos, love that your channel is taking off
All fired in real calibrated ballistic ordinance gel kept on temp stable trailer. There's some really solid bullet designs out there I just like critical duty the most. HST, Ranger T are also stellar
I’ve switched to a vp9 sk with an optic and 15 round mags for ccw and a Walther pdp pro with an optic and 20 round mags for home defense plus 12 guage Mossberg 590 with #4 buckshot. Lights on all weapons.
I adore the p01 cz gets a bad rap as a hipster gun but I have a few from p10 to p01 tac to p07 to shadow2 they are stone cold reliable, accurate and natural shooters in Mt hands
@@unclefreedom213 they can call them what they want 😂. The CZ 75 series pistols are tried and true platforms. And their P10 series are proving themselves as well
Very well-articulated, excellent advice on this subject. It got me thinking about why the factory trigger (or Glock performance) is intentionally not upgraded/replaced for a duty pistol. As a uspsa shooter, I regularly witness (and experience firsthand) that when the factory fire control is replaced or modified to gain improved trigger performance, reliability often suffers. While nobody wants to experience a malfunction on a stage or (yikes) a qualifier, it's not life-or-death. So I feel it's ok to screw around with triggers for competition-only pistols, while I feel like it would be unacceptable to have anything other than a factory trigger in a defensive firearm.
Great video. I appreciate the no edit cuts and just talking with a small cheat sheet. I have a cz p07 from cgw with the pro package and 507c holosun with irons front of optic direct mill i wanted to see if i could trade it in and the most 3 different shops would give me is $450 mostly due to the optic local shops suck idk what to due because the trigger is inconsistent in single action when i training and its frustrating because i have $1200 into the gun. Any advise?
Good video. My current duty gun is a gen 5 G22 with 180g HST's. If you haven't shot the gen 5's, you should try one. Glock finally beefed up the slide to handle the 40 cal and I think it handles a lot better. My dept is in the process of switching to 9mm. We're going with the new G47's paired with critical duty ammo.
I have a G22 Gen 5 on order that will be sent in for an Acro cut. That said the gen 5 47 and 45 paired with critical duty is amazing just push the agency to use 135 +p and not 124 the 135+p is designed for the 4 inch plus barrel where the 124 is for sub compact barrels
Fn 510t for the win! Carry with the 15 round flush mag loaded with underwood 155 grain xtp, slamming with almost 800 ftlbs but wont over penetrate. When i do need penetration i can swap to my 22 round mag loaded with monolithic extreme penetrators. And you know i got that vortex defender st on there. Looking at putting a comp on it too but need to do more research on which one is best for me
Also, not smart, legally, to modify the trigger on a self-defense gun. I guess I just don't want to go to prison for protecting my family or myself. Therefore I choose weapons, ammo and accessories that are less likely to result in that. I really don't understand why most people don't do the same. The fact that RIP ammo has stayed in business this long kind of tells the tale.
I thought about grabbing the 19x MOS but will just end up with the 45 again. How do you like the company? Officer Meaniehead who's on the channel a lot runs a G45 with PMM Como and he loves it
@unclefreedom213 The combination of the PMM comp plus the balance of the 19x given the full size frame and compact slide makes for a really sweet, flat shooter. Nothing but excellent things to say about the Parker Mountian Machine comp. Fit, finish, and the performance of the comp are on point.
Just go with PROVEN platforms. For me, that means my Beretta 92G Brigadiers or Hk USP. In my opinion, there is more than just pricing tiers, but usage tiers. There is 1.) CONSUMER TIER...Kaar, taurus, Ruger, hipoint, etc... 2.) DUTY TIER... S&W, Glock, Walther, Colt clones Beretta, HK etc and 3.) COMBAT TIER... Bereta, HK etc... Tiers that share brands is because of differnt models within that brand. As to ammo, i go 9mm and 45ACP only. They are the most widely available and proven.
Long time, no comment. Point to be made in ammo selection is geography. Bullet weight and type isn't universal due to clothing. Bullets that work well in the southern states where its always T Shirt weather, won't necessarily the best choice in a Montana or NY winter. Now that said, I share a quick tale. 1989 my boss invites me to the range to shoot his "new gun." It was a 1st gen Glock and one of the 1st 100 in the US. After shooting it, I told him. "You wasted your money. Aint no one going to buy a "plastic gun" and it's just a gimmick.... Yeah, I should have bought stock. Stay safe brother.
Great points here that I think a lot of folks overlook. Even in the south, we see folks down here putting on layers of winter clothing once it gets down in the low 50's! While there's a lot of great advancements made in bullet technology, there are still differences in scenarios that should be considered.
Great video. I share your love for the Glock 45. I do not share your love for crtical duty ammo. Im personally aware of a failure so catastrophic that the department that was using it dropped it completely . Otherwise well thought out and good ibfo.
Off-duty alternates between a p365 macro and an ages-old g19. Sig gets a tlr-7sub since that's the biggest it fits and Glock gets lr1-hl. I've run the snot out of both (documented 20k+ through the Glock, barely 2k through the Sig) and trust both to go bang exactly when I want them to every time. Duty gun we don't have a say in: Sig p320, hot off the assembly line after we sent our first batch back for the trigger job years back. Also dead nuts reliable with somewhere north of 6k rounds. I don't enjoy shooting it but the thing works. Still fighting the powers that be about getting wmls on all issued firearms.
How do you like the Macro? The 320s just take some getting used to for sure I have 5 of them my top round count is a 320 compact right at 13k I'm a stickler for keeping accurate round count and maintainece logs. Something I used to get wml issued for everything was a night shoot where I forced the issue shooting wounded shooter drills in the dark. It exposed why a light on the gun was indispensable. Any help I can give you shoot me an email anything I can do for a brother to get more capabilities
@@unclefreedom213 The macro is fine. It's at least as accurate as my Glock and issued Sig, but sits lower in the hand. Mine is the original "comp" version and it does the job for slightly more controlled follow-ups but it's definitely not a real compensator like a ramjet. I have never been able to induce a failure with a weak grip and it's been flawless for reliability on a steady diet of gold dots and blazer (2:1, yes I've put over a case of gold dots through it trying to troubleshoot a holosun 407k since I refuse to zero on range ammo). Downsides: grip texture, heat, and rail space. I really wish they'd been a little more aggressive on texture and placement. Easily fixed by grip tape of some kind or stippling. The heat is just a small gun issue. Rip off a couple mags in a competition or "really bad day" drill and you might have to wait a little to shoot again if you don't wear gloves. Never once brought my g19 or p320 to that kind of heat. It's close to AR handguard heat, it will absolutely get your attention. Rail space really annoys me because it's one stupid pic section too short for a tlr1. That's such a Sig-like miss. Overall verdict is good concealed carry gun, but only that. The few downsides are enough to keep it from being great, and to me the limit on light capacity relegates it to deep conceal carry when for some reason I can't carry the g19+tlr1. Re: policy, I appreciate it brother and I might shoot you an email. We currently have wml issue gated behind an elective class one must qualify to attend as one part of yearly in service training. If you can't make the dates or course fill up or you aren't a priority, not allowed to equip a light even if it's yours and you provide the holster. Progress is slow but the current training division guys are really pushing for blanket wml issuance. Big city departments are just slow sometimes.
I carry Speer Gold Dot +P in 9mm. I've been invested in the Glock double stack format for so long with holsters and everything I won't ever switch brands unless I was going to a true compact pistol as a second handgun when I have no investment in mags or holsters.
I have a quick question about your opinion of handgun calibers. I normally carry 9mm, but I also from time to time have to travel to states with magazine restrictions of 10 rounds. Does this in anyway affect your choice of caliber? I would love to hear other peoples opinion on this subject.
Interesting question, gonna travel to a less friendly state with possible bears in the area so thinking 10mm for a do all round with restricted capacity
It does not I shoot the best with 9mm proven performer round selection and a gun I shoot well. I'm also of the mindset that I don't tell how many rounds I carry
@@unclefreedom213 I figured it wouldn't as 9mm bullet technology has come a long way in the last 20 years. Thank you for the great video and the great info.
The caliber debate gets more interesting when you are "legally" limited to a 10 round magazine like we are in California. Would you really not care if it is 10 rounds of 9mm or 45ACP?
@@MANDING0it’s like all the improvements made to the 9mm that made hollow point 9mm work as well as 45 acp ball, didn’t also happen to the 45 acp hollow points too.
9mm is cheaper to train with and as capable as the other popular rounds. It all comes down to shot placement and the best way to get better at placing shots in crucial areas is to train. The cheaper it is to train the more people train. - More rounds, same capabilities, cheaper rounds, various duty rounds for different purposes, better recoil control which leads to a better cadence of fire, reliability and an innumerable number of quality platforms to shoot it with. The best ammo choice debate has been a silly one for a long time.
You got me to read up on the Miami shootout. A 38 Spc revolver is not the weapon to bring to a rifle fight. 😅 it’s just not, also I’m not surprised they ditched revolvers. You could fill a Glock with blood and it would keep on firing without a care. I think caliber had less to do with it than technology. Reloading striker fired pistol is already half done, don’t leave home without extra mags already loaded. With modern pistol technology I really can’t see it ending the same way. There would have been a lot more rounds on target and projectile technology has improve significantly. Nothing against 45 or 10mm. I’m very confident in my sig Xmacro with 17 rnd mags loaded with 90gr Lehigh extreme defender. 2 mags are more than enough for 99% of all instances where my pistol may see service.
I HIGHLY recommend the Overwatch Precision PolyDAT Trigger Shoe. It’s a MASSIVE improvement over the stock trigger shoe. Best $40 you can invest in a Glock.
I'm used to my M9, so I'm just going to stick with it. Shoots a tighter group than any Glock I've ever shot. 5 Generations of Glock and their trigger still sucks.
On a side note, as to WWII. Russia had manpower, they did not have the manufacturing capability. We were essentially their manufacturing base. Without us, they would NOT have been able to do ANYTHING close to what they did. They had a general at the end of the war who said that without American 2.5T trucks, they would have lost. So, WE won the war with a Russian assist.
For me the P226ST works just fine. NEVER JAMMED OR FAILED! Mine is in .40 S&W with a .357 Sig barrel and a Bar-Sto drop in 9MM barrel available to use. I own a number of other handguns, but the P226 is in my battle belt. I like the option of three different calibers. I prefer a 4.5” to 5” barrel, and I love the reliability and accuracy of my P226. I’ve tried to like Glocks, but it never took. I won’t bash them, but they’re not for me.
Not a duty gun, just what I carry: Glock 19x w/radian ramjet & afterburner barrel/comp. 19rd stock Glock mag. 115gr xtreme penetrators +p+ by underwood. Night fision tritium sights. Plain but works for me.
We equipped the Russians until they could build enough equipment to fight the Nazis. That in returned meant we didn't have ro nuke the Nazis. Also, I'm not shooting a bear with 9mm.
History is important and I agree with the .45 comments BUT Russia did have a big effect on the outcome of ww2 but they were able to put up a fight because America sent tens of thousands of jeeps and trucks along with tens of thousands of weapons and millions of rounds of ammunition and a lot of it was .45acp for the thousands of Thompson subs they sent. So the .45 still had a lot to do with victory
@@unclefreedom213just under 6 ft 200 pounds I carry a p10F 19 plus 1 or I can run the 21 round mag which I do frequently. TLR1 Also used to carry a g17. Moving to a pdp pro soon full sized 18 plus one. You can carry a large gun but you do need a hood holster. There are numerous people that carry g34.
actually revolvers do have a small niche they fit into as far as duty. Lot of blue states are trying to get rid of semi handguns and rifles. In those states its a lot better to get pulled over by law enforcement with a 357 lever action and revolver in the back of your trunk than with a semi pistol and a ar15. You reload just like me if you look at the charts on how 357 magnum performs out of a 16 inch barrel lever action using alliant 2400 you can move a 158 grain jacketed bullet up to 1900 feet per second which is approaching the low end of a 30-30 lever action at a 100 yards. If you trained with this system all the time a person could become pretty effective with it.
@@rogerwood5228 im not standing in front of a liberal piece of crap judge explaining why im in possession of banned weapons in a certain county or state when i can easily train and carry something that is not banned or on anyones radar. Record kills have been made with non semiautomatic weapons lol. I own a little of everything that covers different places and needs that I have.
I’m seven minutes and 50 seconds in when are we gonna talk about guns not what type of jelly you put on your biscuit of the morning or what spoon do you use to get the jelly out with?
Fuck a CZ. Fuck a 1911. Fuck a Walther. Fuck a HK. Fuck a Sig Sauer. I am going to carry something that is going to work 100%...has high availability of ammo...has commonly available replacement and upgrade parts...something high capacity...and something tried and trued in military and police service. Glock 19 fits all of those requirements. 9mm NATO. Glock is not my favorite brand and the 19 is not my favorite model....but it checks all the boxes...and better than everything else for me for such battle purposes.
I've never had any that did that if you're referring to Sig I have a bunch of them never an issue sure they had a drop safe fail but it's wasn't the safety it was the mass of the trigger
Ok yea your right 45 is slower than 9mm, and so on but not slow enough that people can dodge it like the freakin matrix ok same with a 380 so im comfident that you can effectively defend yourself and your home wether you choose to use a 22 or a 380 or a 40 or a 45 or a 9 period. People dont listen to this dipshit use whatever makes you happy, what you can shoot effectively and is reliable for you. Everyone is different. And you dont need a 22 roynd mag to defend youself. 10 rds in a sub compact like glock 26 or p365x or even an m&p shield 2.0 or shit even glock 380 can be used to protect yourself. This moron thinks that you need to carry a full size pistol with 20+ rounds is what you need to carry and hes sadly mistaken and misleading in a horribke way DONT LISTEN TO THIS DIPSHIT

A weird quirk about glock mags, I've noticed in a P80 compact build (over 2000 rounds with a grand total of 3 malfunctions, 2 of which was the ammo. One was a heavier recoil spring I since stopped using. It's reliable), glock mags rattling is the most annoying crap ever. I had one 15 round gen 5 glock 19 mag that would not stop rattling no matter how hard I tried between unloading and reloading, and tapping the bottom when fully loaded. The mags that didn't rattle when fully loaded did rattle when the top round was chambered, and 14 were left in the magazine. Loaded firearm may as well be maracas when shaken. Magpul's gl9 15 round does not do this.
Magpul gl9 feed lip design is such that the top cartridge's extraction rim was shrouded from getting caught on the rear wall of the magazine slot (at least in the pf940c frame), while the OEM mag geometry does allow that to happen. Essentially, using the magpul gl9 was like having a magwell without adding a magwell with this particular frame where I could miss the magwell by a half inch to the rear, and it will still slide right into the grip where the top cartridge from an OEM mag will get caught.
Also, most of those 2000+ rounds went through the same two magpul magazines I marked for range/training use that I haven't cleaned since the day I bought them. They're caked and baked in carbon from HSTs, fort scott TUIs, underwood extreme defenders, blazers, federal white box, barnes, lawmans, purple and red federal syntechs just out of curiosity for how long will they go.
Anyway, all this to say I have a reason for using magpul mags in EDC for it's lack of reliability issues thus far, smoother reloading in a particular firearm, and not sounding like a mariachi band member when walking around.
The low price is alright too I guess, but not that much of a priority since it's not like we're dealing with HK magazine prices here.
I agree I hate the glocl mag rattle one of the perks of the extensions is it can* get rid of it. I too have found the magpul mags to be utterly reliable, it's used to be the same way but recently I have noticed some unreliable stuff from them, amend 2 is decent but foe the price I'll roll magpul
Good Video! Good explanation as always. My duty is. CZ P-09 9mm with a threaded barrel and rds, x300 turbo. I can carry 26 rounds of Fort Scott 80gr+p TUI in the gun at once with a +5 base plate for SHTF. If it's in a Home defense load out I run seismic 185gr (9mm) NATO. I have over 11k rounds in my P-07 set up similarly. My P-09 only has 2k rounds but I trust it. True duty guns, primary machine slide work, DPM Spring System flatens and increases reliability.
Excellent video! Thanks for the insights and breakdown of a duty gun and ammo.
The good thing about "Freedom" is that we all have the freedom to have our own little opinions. Caliber is not nearly as important as the gun that you have, meaning.......You are confident with that gun, it's the one you can afford, it's 100% reliable, you train with it regularly and you are very proficient with the gun. I would be more afraid of a guy that trains every week with a 22LR than a guy that uses the latest and greatest nato round but doesn't train very much. So, it all depends on one's situation. Not to mention....for me, a handgun is only to be used to get me to my rifle.
Indeed!

it’s like all the improvements made to the 9mm that made hollow point 9mm work as well as 45 acp ball, didn’t also happen to the 45 acp hollow points too.
I think the problem with it is that they had to start with a “hack” - modifying the basics because the round itself was from the get-go too slow to *reliably* expand. I love 45ACP, but if I was a LEO, I’d run 40 or 9mm.
There. At the end. Trust the weapon. Train with the weapon.
Cheers!
- Godspeed
When I first became an LEO in 1989, I had to provide my own duty weapon (S&W Gen 3 9mm). One department had an 'approved for duty list'. My last one didn't. If I could qualify with it, I could carry it. Except for a 1911. My Chief didn't understand the 1911, so... In 2003 my department standardized on G22 and G23 duty weapons. I chose the G22, and proceeded to shoot 6 perfect scores of '100' during qualification. We used the Safariland Raptor duty holster.
Ammo: HORNADY 124gr XTP +P
If you want a really good 10mm experience, I'll highly recommend the Sig P320 XTEN. It's a little heavier, because of the bull barrel, but shoots bear load 10mm, and feels like a 9mm. It's one of the pistols with which I am most accurate.
Love this guy
Good video as always. I didn't agree with every single point, but that's okay - the important points of carrying what is dependable and what you are good with, are spot on. I'm also starting to wonder something else... It almost seems like 40 S&W is making a quiet comeback. I have spoken to a lot of people that are switching back to it recently because they just like it better. I'm just getting into that caliber, I'm still a 45 guy at heart, and I carry 9mm quite a bit, but the 40 gives me the smaller pistol with big bore performance. I've had several back surgeries and there's some nerve damage and a lot of pain and carrying the 45 or 10 mm is kind of hard to do because of the larger frames. Anyway, keep on coming!
I mean, game on for you and your area, but most box stores where I am at aren't stocking them. A decently duty oriented store near me literally has a 10:1 ratio of 9mm duty and defense ammo compared to .40. It's dead around here; I just never saw the interest when some guns don't last as long compared to 9mm and .45.
@@johnemmert9012 yeah, I don't know. Here, in the western part of Virginia, I'm seeing more different 40 loadings than I've seen in a long time showing up every month. Obviously, 9 mm has the most because it's the "darling" right now. The surprising part, though, is I'm saying 10mm go down again. I was just telling one of the shops I get ammo at, that I was glad I had stocked up a few years ago on 10 mm. It kind of saw resurgence, and there for a while I could find several loadings at any time, but now most places only have one or two.
@@johnemmert9012 the interest for me is in the size of the gun. Yes, there is more wear on 40. But I have learned over the past couple of years that that's somewhat of a myth, most people will never shoot it enough to wear it out. And I haven't seen much wear on my Glock from shooting it quite a bit, no more than anything else. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, I'm just saying I'm not really seeing it. But the big thing is the frame sizes. It's hard for me with my back to carry 45 size frames comfortably. I will carry nine, and I have a number of 9 mm pistols. I just don't like the caliber as well. Here's the problem. 9 mm can be quite effective, but in order to get the performance, you have to use +p or +p+. And if you want to talk about wear and damage to pistols, there you go. And I have seen quite a bit of wear on a couple of mine from shooting +p. It's almost kind of a no win situation with smaller pistols, until you get into the bigger frames.
I normally don’t comment, but try to catch every one of your videos.. I love listening to your opinions. I’ve been loving the Glock 45s, they are perfect for me. Also, primary arms is awesome! They have great sales and have excellent shipping times/customer service.
I appreciate your support I agree the 45 is the best glock for me from CC in shorts to on duty to on the range in a class teaching or learning it's my do all
As always spot on Uncle! Thanks for having the balls to say it! Technology has come a long way. I see people shoot guns every week day in and day out. The key is practice, practice, practice, people you have to go shoot! If you haven’t fired your weapon in weeks or months you need to go shoot! I literally have had someone tell me I’m ready for anything even though they admitted to not having fired their carry gun in months! I just had to say keep it in the holster!😊
I really like your channel. This was very educational, thank you.
Thanks for the video; get your p07 and p09 optic cut CZ is the way hammer gun for concealed for the win. The P-01 is similar weight to the p07 but all metal check one out fine sir. Good info as usual.
I have the sp01 tactical and a shadow love me some CZ
Quick question: Does your Dept. dictate what your ON Duty sidearm has to be? The reason I ask is, a few years ago, I had an encounter with a MN DNR 'Game Warden' while I was open carrying one of my Springfield 1911's. During our discusion, he said, "Damn, I wish I could carry a 1911 on duty!" I replied, "Why not?", then went onto explain the thing that I hadn't considered. He replied, "Commonality/standardization." If need be, I can grab a magazine from an officer that may be 'down', if I need to."
Keep your videos coming!
Hey bud…question? First off, i’m so glad I watched this video before making this purchase just in case. I trust your judgment on ballistics 100% You stated 9mm is a max grain weight of 150.
This place in Houston called 2a warehouse is selling a 165 grain 9mm projectile. I’ve never purchased anything from them and found that odd that I’ve never seen a 165 grain 9mm
What’s your take on that load for suppressed use?
I’d appreciate your feedback and thanks for all that you’re doing My Man!
I appreciate you covering other calibers. It may be a stupid reason, but my "duty" weapon is .45acp because I'm trying to keep as much of my hearing as possible, and it being a lower velocity round, 12-15db inside a building actually makes a hell of a difference, take it from a sound guy and musician. But I'll freely admit if my duty changed to something more action directed, I'd rather have a 9mm with more capacity. As you say, it's just up to each person's version of duty, as long as it's reliable
If I want the overall best Duty Gun , I am going with the Sig P-226, X-5 Legion , but I have been a P-226 owner since 1988 when I bought the W.German version and yeah it was my first 9mm semi , but damn it just shot like a house on fire right out of the box , basically it was intuitive , I just pointed the damn thing instinctively and hit with amazing accuracy , so I am a P-226 Fan all the way !
😂 yep we had the - you won’t see the difference in gel - exchange. Just for my sanity, is that statement based on Real Clear Ballistics? If so, I agree.
And on top your favorite 135 Critical Duty will level the playing field due to its limited expansion.
Thanks for the great videos, love that your channel is taking off
All fired in real calibrated ballistic ordinance gel kept on temp stable trailer. There's some really solid bullet designs out there I just like critical duty the most. HST, Ranger T are also stellar

Very well-articulated, excellent advice on this subject. It got me thinking about why the factory trigger (or Glock performance) is intentionally not upgraded/replaced for a duty pistol. As a uspsa shooter, I regularly witness (and experience firsthand) that when the factory fire control is replaced or modified to gain improved trigger performance, reliability often suffers. While nobody wants to experience a malfunction on a stage or (yikes) a qualifier, it's not life-or-death. So I feel it's ok to screw around with triggers for competition-only pistols, while I feel like it would be unacceptable to have anything other than a factory trigger in a defensive firearm.
Thank you!
Great video. I appreciate the no edit cuts and just talking with a small cheat sheet. I have a cz p07 from cgw with the pro package and 507c holosun with irons front of optic direct mill i wanted to see if i could trade it in and the most 3 different shops would give me is $450 mostly due to the optic local shops suck idk what to due because the trigger is inconsistent in single action when i training and its frustrating because i have $1200 into the gun. Any advise?
What ambi lower should I get to go with my BCM upper? I need somthing that will be just as durable and reliable.
The Griffin Armamemt mk2 is nice
Good video.
My current duty gun is a gen 5 G22 with 180g HST's. If you haven't shot the gen 5's, you should try one. Glock finally beefed up the slide to handle the 40 cal and I think it handles a lot better. My dept is in the process of switching to 9mm. We're going with the new G47's paired with critical duty ammo.
I have a G22 Gen 5 on order that will be sent in for an Acro cut. That said the gen 5 47 and 45 paired with critical duty is amazing just push the agency to use 135 +p and not 124 the 135+p is designed for the 4 inch plus barrel where the 124 is for sub compact barrels
@@unclefreedom213 I'll talk to them about the 135's, thanks for the info.
Thanks, Uncle!
Fn 510t for the win! Carry with the 15 round flush mag loaded with underwood 155 grain xtp, slamming with almost 800 ftlbs but wont over penetrate. When i do need penetration i can swap to my 22 round mag loaded with monolithic extreme penetrators. And you know i got that vortex defender st on there. Looking at putting a comp on it too but need to do more research on which one is best for me
Also, not smart, legally, to modify the trigger on a self-defense gun.
I guess I just don't want to go to
prison for protecting my family or myself. Therefore I choose weapons, ammo and accessories that are less likely to result in that.
I really don't understand why most people don't do the same. The fact that RIP ammo has stayed in business this long kind of tells the tale.
Love my g45. Check out the glock performance trigger. Super nice and doesn't void the warranty from glock
19X with a PMM single port comp and a Surefire X300U-B Ultra. Running the factory iron night sights.
I thought about grabbing the 19x MOS but will just end up with the 45 again. How do you like the company? Officer Meaniehead who's on the channel a lot runs a G45 with PMM Como and he loves it
@unclefreedom213 The combination of the PMM comp plus the balance of the 19x given the full size frame and compact slide makes for a really sweet, flat shooter. Nothing but excellent things to say about the Parker Mountian Machine comp. Fit, finish, and the performance of the comp are on point.
As an Alaskan I love my ten mil but I definitely recoils more than 9
What do you think about Shadow Systems DR920 War Poet?
Just go with PROVEN platforms. For me, that means my Beretta 92G Brigadiers or Hk USP.
In my opinion, there is more than just pricing tiers, but usage tiers. There is 1.) CONSUMER TIER...Kaar, taurus, Ruger, hipoint, etc... 2.) DUTY TIER... S&W, Glock, Walther, Colt clones Beretta, HK etc and 3.) COMBAT TIER... Bereta, HK etc...
Tiers that share brands is because of differnt models within that brand.
As to ammo, i go 9mm and 45ACP only. They are the most widely available and proven.
Long time, no comment. Point to be made in ammo selection is geography. Bullet weight and type isn't universal due to clothing. Bullets that work well in the southern states where its always T Shirt weather, won't necessarily the best choice in a Montana or NY winter. Now that said, I share a quick tale. 1989 my boss invites me to the range to shoot his "new gun." It was a 1st gen Glock and one of the 1st 100 in the US. After shooting it, I told him. "You wasted your money. Aint no one going to buy a "plastic gun" and it's just a gimmick.... Yeah, I should have bought stock. Stay safe brother.
Great points here that I think a lot of folks overlook. Even in the south, we see folks down here putting on layers of winter clothing once it gets down in the low 50's! While there's a lot of great advancements made in bullet technology, there are still differences in scenarios that should be considered.
Hey uncle freedom. where do you plan to send your slide to be milled for an RMR? I’m looking to do the same. Thanks

Other than hard to get aftermarket parts and weight, what's your opinion on reliability for duty carrying the IWI Jerico 941R?

Revolution 2.0 is starting
Currently my duty gun is a Gen 3 Glock 35 with a threaded 9mm conversion barrel.
Off-duty alternates between a p365 macro and an ages-old g19. Sig gets a tlr-7sub since that's the biggest it fits and Glock gets lr1-hl. I've run the snot out of both (documented 20k+ through the Glock, barely 2k through the Sig) and trust both to go bang exactly when I want them to every time. Duty gun we don't have a say in: Sig p320, hot off the assembly line after we sent our first batch back for the trigger job years back. Also dead nuts reliable with somewhere north of 6k rounds. I don't enjoy shooting it but the thing works. Still fighting the powers that be about getting wmls on all issued firearms.
How do you like the Macro? The 320s just take some getting used to for sure I have 5 of them my top round count is a 320 compact right at 13k I'm a stickler for keeping accurate round count and maintainece logs. Something I used to get wml issued for everything was a night shoot where I forced the issue shooting wounded shooter drills in the dark. It exposed why a light on the gun was indispensable. Any help I can give you shoot me an email anything I can do for a brother to get more capabilities
@@unclefreedom213 The macro is fine. It's at least as accurate as my Glock and issued Sig, but sits lower in the hand. Mine is the original "comp" version and it does the job for slightly more controlled follow-ups but it's definitely not a real compensator like a ramjet. I have never been able to induce a failure with a weak grip and it's been flawless for reliability on a steady diet of gold dots and blazer (2:1, yes I've put over a case of gold dots through it trying to troubleshoot a holosun 407k since I refuse to zero on range ammo).
Downsides: grip texture, heat, and rail space. I really wish they'd been a little more aggressive on texture and placement. Easily fixed by grip tape of some kind or stippling. The heat is just a small gun issue. Rip off a couple mags in a competition or "really bad day" drill and you might have to wait a little to shoot again if you don't wear gloves. Never once brought my g19 or p320 to that kind of heat. It's close to AR handguard heat, it will absolutely get your attention. Rail space really annoys me because it's one stupid pic section too short for a tlr1. That's such a Sig-like miss.
Overall verdict is good concealed carry gun, but only that. The few downsides are enough to keep it from being great, and to me the limit on light capacity relegates it to deep conceal carry when for some reason I can't carry the g19+tlr1.
Re: policy, I appreciate it brother and I might shoot you an email. We currently have wml issue gated behind an elective class one must qualify to attend as one part of yearly in service training. If you can't make the dates or course fill up or you aren't a priority, not allowed to equip a light even if it's yours and you provide the holster. Progress is slow but the current training division guys are really pushing for blanket wml issuance. Big city departments are just slow sometimes.
Great video as always. What do you think of Walther firearms?
I carry Speer Gold Dot +P in 9mm. I've been invested in the Glock double stack format for so long with holsters and everything I won't ever switch brands unless I was going to a true compact pistol as a second handgun when I have no investment in mags or holsters.
I try my best to explain that to folks about why I like glock. 26, 45, 17, 34 all take the same mag and I have a ton of parts

I have a quick question about your opinion of handgun calibers. I normally carry 9mm, but I also from time to time have to travel to states with magazine restrictions of 10 rounds. Does this in anyway affect your choice of caliber? I would love to hear other peoples opinion on this subject.
Interesting question, gonna travel to a less friendly state with possible bears in the area so thinking 10mm for a do all round with restricted capacity
It does not I shoot the best with 9mm proven performer round selection and a gun I shoot well. I'm also of the mindset that I don't tell how many rounds I carry
@@unclefreedom213 I figured it wouldn't as 9mm bullet technology has come a long way in the last 20 years. Thank you for the great video and the great info.
The caliber debate gets more interesting when you are "legally" limited to a 10 round magazine like we are in California. Would you really not care if it is 10 rounds of 9mm or 45ACP?
Modern ballostics would tell me 9mm all day long. Cheaper to train with as well.

9mm is cheaper to train with and as capable as the other popular rounds. It all comes down to shot placement and the best way to get better at placing shots in crucial areas is to train. The cheaper it is to train the more people train.

More rounds, same capabilities, cheaper rounds, various duty rounds for different purposes, better recoil control which leads to a better cadence of fire, reliability and an innumerable number of quality platforms to shoot it with. The best ammo choice debate has been a silly one for a long time.

@unclefreedom213 I like how fast and easy they are to clean out. Rack it and pull a leaver and the gun is r3ady to clean.
You got me to read up on the Miami shootout. A 38 Spc revolver is not the weapon to bring to a rifle fight. 😅 it’s just not, also I’m not surprised they ditched revolvers. You could fill a Glock with blood and it would keep on firing without a care. I think caliber had less to do with it than technology. Reloading striker fired pistol is already half done, don’t leave home without extra mags already loaded. With modern pistol technology I really can’t see it ending the same way. There would have been a lot more rounds on target and projectile technology has improve significantly. Nothing against 45 or 10mm. I’m very confident in my sig Xmacro with 17 rnd mags loaded with 90gr Lehigh extreme defender. 2 mags are more than enough for 99% of all instances where my pistol may see service.
I HIGHLY recommend the Overwatch Precision PolyDAT Trigger Shoe. It’s a MASSIVE improvement over the stock trigger shoe. Best $40 you can invest in a Glock.
I'm used to my M9, so I'm just going to stick with it. Shoots a tighter group than any Glock I've ever shot.

On a side note, as to WWII. Russia had manpower, they did not have the manufacturing capability.
We were essentially their manufacturing base. Without us, they would NOT have been able to do ANYTHING close to what they did. They had a general at the end of the war who said that without American 2.5T trucks, they would have lost.
So, WE won the war with a Russian assist.

yes there are 4 glocks so I'll give you 60 percent credit on your predictions
“OPINIONS” best 9mm round? I just like to hear what people use for their defensive choice.
History is important and I agree with the .45 comments BUT Russia did have a big effect on the outcome of ww2 but they were able to put up a fight because America sent tens of thousands of jeeps and trucks along with tens of thousands of weapons and millions of rounds of ammunition and a lot of it was .45acp for the thousands of Thompson subs they sent. So the .45 still had a lot to do with victory
That's true we did but they sent the manpower sometimes their own side was more dangerous that the germans

actually revolvers do have a small niche they fit into as far as duty. Lot of blue states are trying to get rid of semi handguns and rifles.

You reload just like me if you look at the charts on how 357 magnum performs out of a 16 inch barrel lever action using alliant 2400 you can move a 158 grain jacketed bullet up to 1900 feet per second which is approaching the low end of a 30-30 lever action at a 100 yards.
