Picked up a Masada 4/20. Love it!! I'm a total fan-boy for the IWI. It shoots so well!! I've shot maybe 20 rounds out of a hand gun, in the last 10 years, and not very well. Picked up the Masada and was ringing steelies on the second shot, and ever since!! Glad I didn't get the Glock, and the CZ grip texture was way too aggressive for a non gloved hand!
It's always nice to see good pistols added to my options. Everyone is different and it gives us great choices to fit our particular likes and dislikes.
I love how this guy, James TFB, honest outlaw, etc... no matter their initial thoughts or opinions, they ALL are amazed with how *accurate the Masada is from the very 1st initial mag. Any they've compared it to the CZ, HK, & Glock 17/45 and its ALWAYS the same answer: Masada is a very accurate, comfortable, & easy shooting pistol be it shooting solo or VS. the greats. For a better price, from a company that survives on undeniable reliability... I'll be owning one very soon.
I own the P10C and the Masada. I'm torn between the two. I like the Masada's trigger much better, and the optics plates are far superior to even the availability of CZ plates. However, the aftermarket is superior for the CZ, and the Masada would definitely benefit from a magazine release extension. If I could only have one, it would be the Masada, just because the trigger is that much better.
So with the sights needing to be replaced, the $80 savings over the cz is a wash...how much are Masada mags compared to the cz? That might tip the cost scale?
@@TheHumbleMarksman I thought so to but I was reminded that I have to buy something else at this time. If anyone is interested it's a Shooter's Choice in West Columbia SC.
There just is not an optic cut striker fired handgun out of the box that brings the features the Masada does. It’s $399 TODAY in 2022 which is unheard of in this day and age from reputable manufacturers like it seems IWI is from what I’ve read. It’s modular like a 320 for a good bit less money (I own 2 320s, they’re meh). My buddy has a P10, it’s nice but this is not even close, and will be even less close when/if IWI and the aftermarket release more frames and accessories for the Masada.
IWI Masada is the newest pistol, designed for combat. Israel makes their weapons for their military, police, and security forces. Their very existence depends on having quality weapons. They're really not designed with civilians in mind, first order. If you want a rugged handgun built for combat, then the Masada is that pistol.
@@TheHumbleMarksman Like I said, the weapons are geared more for battlefield or street combat, than they are for civilian shooting. The military always has basic sights, but at least IWI had the forethought of being able to replace them with civilian versions.
To me it just looks like my hand would fall into the CZ in a good way. It reminds me or the grip on a recurve bow. A deep grip. It does look like it might make the trigger closer than what I'm used to. Me being a Glocktard I'm more a custom to 2x4 ergos😂👍🇺🇸
I had a Ruger, absolutely hated how the polymer felt in my hand and it never went away. Today I have a Masada and the polymer did feel like the Ruger. But the feel went away quickly. Add a Talon grip and it feels even better. Don't be scared off by the cheap feel comments, it's true but not true. If you own one you know what I mean.
I already own the CZ P10F and it's a great shooting gun with really good ergonomics for me. So why did I watch this video? Maybe because I was hoping your review would help validate my choice? Although I'm not that insecure.😉 Or, maybe it was because I wanted to see if you added a La-Z-Boy recliner to your armchair collection? 😁
I am thai peple also..cheer MASADA -but i cannot pay 75,000 to 80,000 baht (about $2,500) for one pistol ..no fair ..and check to the store ,nobody order masada ..
Dang that Israeli Glock will probably go up in price soon, in case anyone wants to get one. I'll probably just stick with my Glocks but suggest it to any new shooters.
Good review. Very much to the point, no wasted time or annoying talk. Thanks!
Cheers- I try to be ruthless with these as far as leaving in only what is of value. The raw video is about 3X longer
Love your reviews. ..hope you channels keeps growing.
Thanks so much!
Great comparison review. Thank you
Thanks!
Really like both firearms. But I have the Masada. Price, quality, and features. Shoots great. Easy enough to carry.
I bought the P10-F. Really like it. Bought two extra 21 round mags.
P10F is a legit pistol for sure.
bought 2 masada FDE today...fantastic pistol for the price and competes with the G17

They're pretty cool guns for sure.
Put Talon grip on it.
Thank you for another informative and well-made video. I have not shot the P 10 F, but I do love the Masada.
P10F is a good gun but yeah the Masada is easy to love
Masada is a very nice budget option but the CZ platform is imo the best out of both shooting experience you get at the price point/polymer 9mm market.
Nice Comparison Brother! Carry on
Thanks Big J
It's always nice to see good pistols added to my options. Everyone is different and it gives us great choices to fit our particular likes and dislikes.
these are both great - for sure.
The CZ is one of the best 9mm out there!Love this gunThis isn’t even close in my opinion.
Great to the point review 👍. Answered all my questions.
Thanks for watching. Cheers!

Great vid
Has IWI done anything with the Masada mag release? That's my only complaint.

Nice review. Thanks. The Masada seems like a winner.
It’s not bad at all
Awesome versus video Sir !!!!!!!!! I would still go with the CZ P10F OR. Living the CZ Life, Humble Marksman !!!!!!!!!
it's not a bad pistol to be certain.
Do you know what sig sights are comparable with the Masada? I assume xray sights that go on the p226 legion or 365
P320 I believe - let me ask their marketing guy
The 9mm/357 sights are the same on the P22X or the P320
Thank you, much appreciated
The p10f is very accurate for me no matter the distance..but it is true, the gun needs to feel perfect on your hand in order for it to work well.
yeah the P10F is legit - I just couldn't get along with it for precision - it would have taken more time and rounds
So with the sights needing to be replaced, the $80 savings over the cz is a wash...how much are Masada mags compared to the cz? That might tip the cost scale?
IWI mags are cheaper 27 vs 32
And you have to buy a plate for the CZ that you don’t have to buy for the IWI- so not a wash
Masada mags or 25
Did you notice if the Masada was shooting low? Just about every review I watched said it was shooting several inches low at 10 yards and lower at 25.
It impacts with the dot on the front sight and not the top of the sight post.
I was looking at a Masada the other day and it was only $318.00 sounded like a reasonable deal to me.
at that price it's a helluva deal.

it's a decent pistol for sure. SIghts kind of suck - but those can be replaced.

I keep hearing that, but Beretta APX full size with finger grooves, IS LIKE GRABBING THE MONKEY 😂🤣

For me, the Masada takes it for the ambi mag release, but loses it for the heavier weight, and hundred dollar extra cost in Canada.
They just released +5 extensions for the Masada making it viable in Carry Optics.
@@TheHumbleMarksman I got the wrong info 'bout the Masada's weight. It's actually slightly less then the CZ P-10 SC
The Masada porks the CZ, and never looked back .
Wouldnt the p10c be a better comparison to the masada? Dimensions are much more similar
Nope- both are G17 sized.
Maybe CZ P10 SC is better comparison to IWI Masada
Masada ❤👏🎯

Hopefully we aren't buying anymore chairs. I'm not eager to spend money on chairs.
I got an idea to go furniture shopping.
I want both ....
Both is good
VERYGOOD
thanks!
I am thai peple also..cheer MASADA -but i cannot pay 75,000 to 80,000 baht (about $2,500) for one pistol ..no fair ..and check to the store ,nobody order masada ..
Yay CZ. :)
It's a good one.
Size comparison???
Both Glock 17 size - CZ slightly larger
IWI all the way.
Or should I just save more money and buy a Shadow II (yes, I know that the slide would have to be milled for a red dot).
I would get a dog X5L before a CZS2 these days
TheHumbleMarksman Great point! I’ll study the SIG P330 X5 Legion. SIG is known for quality. Thanks much.
Masada it's better pick due to price
Dang that Israeli Glock will probably go up in price soon, in case anyone wants to get one. I'll probably just stick with my Glocks but suggest it to any new shooters.
Yeah it’s pretty good but I don’t know I would sell my current gun to make a switch
Israeli glock? Why don't you just call it what it is, a superior gun 😂
@@AudibleVisibIe I would after it has completed Glocks 30 year test for the 17 & 19. And still being preferred by most agencies and LEO's.
Failed to mention weight
Think the masada is lot heavier
Masada is actually lighter going off memory then checking published weight
That’s not necessarily a good thing - the best shooting guns are in the 30 ounce+ range unloaded.
Maybe you don't have the self avowed 'large' hands.
I have large palms and medium fingers
CZ hands down. Masada not even in same class.
This is unfair to compare the masada to the CZ a no Brainerd compare it to the PDP or the XDM Elite!
