    I just recently picked up the Tactical Masada and it shoots awesome right out of the box.
    After tax, I paid just over $400 and it's worth every penny.

      That's a great deal PPK-007. It is one of the best guns right out of the box. Feels great, shoots great and is a definitely leader when it comes to 9mm. Awesome gun. Thanks for the comment.

    This pistol came out in 2018. Its selling points were, it's price, optics ready, fully ambi, and it's "modularity". Five years later, neither IWI nor anyone else has made a single grip module for it.

    Great gun for the price point, got mine in a cardboard box for under $400. Looks, feels and shoots great but my only the complaint is the mag release sucks.

    Im not surprised in the least you love the APX, I think Beretta hit it out of the park... again. Curious if you've tried the PX4 Storm? It's another innovative pistol line from the company, and though it's a bit chunky, I find it to be very elegantly designed... and the rotating bolt design really helps tame recoil.
    Yes, I am a major Beretta fan boy!
    I like the grading system you use on your reviews, and appreciate the lack of pomp and BS in your presentations.
    Keep up the good work, gentlemen!

    We won't purchase anything from PSA. They advertised the APX A1 full size for sale with the Burris reddit included. When the gun arrived it didn't have the Burris red dot included.
    They blamed Beretta for the issue. Long story short they refused any type of discount. We weren't the only ones affected. There's many reviews complaining of the same type of issue.
    It clearly was advertised with the red dot and they refused to honor there advertised deal.
    Just FYI. Thanks again for sharing this video.

    If the mag release is too stiff, shave about 1/16” off the elastomer core in the mag release spring, and it will work tremendously well, when you hit it the mag will come right out. I did that on mine and it made a world of difference.

    Yes, the _IWI Masada_ is a *Glock 17/19* close copy.
    This pistol is similar to other Glock clones. It was developed to grab some of Glock Inc. market share.
    This is a gun marketing video by the gun industry to promote the Masada.
    *Note:* being a Glock copy the Masada, CZ P10, MC1/MC2, Palmetto, etc. probably are good guns _but_ why get a copy when you can get the original?

    I owned IW Masada since 3/20. I put tactical sights on it that co exist with the Vortex Venom Red Dot I installed. This was my first pistol I purchased after I got my pistol license. I qualified with it for the Florida License. When I retire from NY in about 3 years will carry concealed in a nice holster I purchased made by the Israelis in a 2A friendly state. So fun to shoot and accurate The IDF carries it and sure help protect Israeli citizens from terrorists.

    There are many underrated pistols just like this one in this price range. Some with modular trigger controls as well. They all they never earned the respect or sales they deserved but maybe just an over saturated market? Not a fan of fully ambi mag release. Never works well... just ask cz p-10 gen 1 owners.

    I don’t think this is a Israeli Glock. I think its an Israeli Beretta APX. I have and love a Beretta APX full size. I would probably like the Masada as well

    • @mwmag
      @mwmag  Рік тому

      Fair point. If you like the APX, you'd like this as well. Sort of a little brother feel - tad smaller and tad lighter but has all the same great feel to it. Thanks for watching.

      I have a leather owb that works with optic on that also has built in mag pouch. It's a little snug at first but loosens up with time. It's by relentless tactical. Fits most full sized handguns.

      Not it's real price. Got mine for 420, not including taxes of course. You might even find it for lower if you wait and look around. Great gun. Not just for the price either. I've watched others say about the magazine release or the magazines not dropping. I had the same issue with my Glock 23. The magazines wouldn't drop until I'd put 200 hundred rounds through it. The button itself on the Masada just takes getting familiar with. My new house gun. Buy it already.
