For people who can handle recoil, #4 buck. For people who can't handle full power, Federal #4 buck shorty shells. We here at OPSol Texas pioneered the concept of using mini/shorty shells for our wives and daughters, specifically for home defense. This is how it works. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZOnZ4yeZbSoa5o

Amen. Buck shot puts em down n most of the time they not getting back up n on top of that minamal caladeral damage with the exception of glass.

why censor the pistol?

Auditory cadence as a mental cue is problematic as you could more easily pick one in your mind that's inappropriate for the target area/distance/opportunity - either you force yourself to overspeed the target or you leave speed on the table. Visual confirmation is a better cue for appropriate follow-up shot speed, since all of aiming is vision anyway.

Basically, anything between #4 buck and OOO will eviscerate a human up close. Which buck you use depends on the size of your property and the climate. In a small apartment, #4 penetrates less, a good thing. But if you're likely to be facing bad guys in parkas, it might not go deep enough. Many consider #1 buck the Goldilocks round, but it's hard to find. OO buck, contrastingly, is everywhere.

The sig doesn’t rely on a safety? You can get it with or without one.

Good luck getting around corners 😂 I know the motto of the internet gun community is 'fix it until it's broken' but a boring old handgun is a lot more practical for home defense. Lower recoil, much smaller gun with more maneuverability, and roughly 3x as much ammo capacity. Unless The Mountain is breaking in, you don't need 00 buckshot for defense.

That holster position is wild😂

So who is your target? What is the senareo your preping for ? When you turn and back up, what if your 'target' is shooting at you?? Wake up ❗

Unless you're living in a mansion birdshot is fine

It will be interesting to see if home defense loads follow the hunting load trends and shift to more pellets of tungsten instead of larger lead pellets

#4 buckshot if you have close neighbors

buckshot is great but in the hoiuse anyting will do. #8 at 10 yrds will put a hole in you the size of a softball

Nice drill, definitely liking the multiple skills this hits on.

Your cameraman sucks. There was absolutely zero clarity of what you were showing on the target.

I'll keep my Barrett 50 cal. Thank you. 😂😂😂 J/k

Glocks are more like a Camry, & the Sig is a Honda Civic.

Eye and ear protection? 😮

“Only one” yeah, I’ll decide.

If your neighbors are close or live in an apartment, buckshot is actually a terrible choice cuz it will go through 5 layers of drywall... Know your target and what's beyond it... And that HAS to be considered, buckshot would literally be into my neighbors house personally & I have two #8's then two #6's behind that, & in the words of Clint Smith "that will literally tear chunks of shit off a person and leave it laying on your floor.." 🎤drop.

I have enough distance (and block walls) from my neighbors to use slugs, but prefer00 buck. Kick Industries Buck Kicker choke reduces the recoil in my low recoiling Benelli M4 to basically 5.56 level. Makes follow-up shots quick and easy. Moving targets can be hard to hit!

Everybody knows that! So, WHICH buckshot? "00" is good, but "3" or "4" are generally considered better. They have less ability to penetrate walls, but at close range, all those little pellets are devastating.

Glocks being reliable is myth. I have seen so many videos on KZbin were cops Glocks malfunction. So don' t give me that crap that glocks are reliable. They are not. My sig p226 has never had a malfunction. Ever. Any gun that gives me a malfunction, its out. I sold my m&p shield because it gave me a malfunction. Guess what I own. A beretta 92 and a sig p226/p229. Never have gave me a single malfunction with any of them. Therefore, they stay in my gun collection. All my guns have to meet a strict criteria. Must be accurate and reliable. Glock doesn't meet reliable portion.

Used to run glocks. Now I run Sigs.

Used to carry a 43x but could not for the life of me accurately hit a target. Got into a p365 x macro and was hitting dots. Not sure if it was me or the gun but sig seems to work better for me. I have shot a g19 and it was a little better but nothing like the sig.

And the winner is M&P 2.0 24/7 365 days a year!!!

P30sk lem

What makes you an expert???

Handguns don't kill people Sig p320..... watch me

I think it needs to be said for those who might be unfamiliar with shotguns that the three large holes were made by the “wad”. The wad is plastic and separates the powder from the shot, keeps the shot together as it travels down the barrel and then separates from the shot after leaving the barrel. The wad only travels a short distance as it has very little mass and will make a hole in the paper or cardboard at a short distance but it will not harm a man or animal.

How does this factor into non dynamic pie slicing?

I own both Glocks and a SIG (X Macro). I concur, both are phenomenal pistols. I would trust my life to either. But like stated, the grip angles are very different. I am more comfortable with the Glock hump. I'm certain I could quickly and easily switch to SIG for EDC and train away any issues but until it is necessary I will roll with my 43X (and the S15 mags)

#4 Buckshot, specifically. 00 buck also trucks through walls

Glock

Yeah man, sig is trash. They’ve only ever made one good pistol which was the p226. How dare you say that the Sig is anywhere near as reliable as the Berreta 92, CZ 75 series (which is more reliable than Glock, been proven plenty), this video is ridiculous. Sig just lost a few lawsuits for their 320 series and nds with no human interaction. The more you know.

How big is your house my place is 12 x 15t 😅

Lol everyone acts as if a safety is optional to use.

Also I am pretty accurate

At home intruder range maybe at most 10 feet the shot no matter size is going to be nearly as tight as a slug. I’ve shot a 2” pine tree in two with no. 8 shot at about 8’. The shot doesn’t have time to spread so you still need to be accurate. I think no 4 shot would be a great size heavy enough to be lethal but not as capable of blowing all the way through the house which I think a ball the size of a 9mm is still capable of. Just my two cents.

Have both 365 x macro and glock 43x. Love them both glock is less maintenance. I keep my macro oiled have friends with rust on there barrels some on magazine.

#4 in Apts & multi rooms with loved ones behind them......00 Federal Flite Control on the farm ranch with a BuckKicker choke tube will pattern at 100 yards !!!

#4 hybird 1¼oz of shot in a solid shot cup! Like a frangable slug.

Met a guy once who got hit with a bird shot load right in leg from an AD from just inches away. Mangled his leg but lived to tell the tale.

Love my Glock 48 got so many rounds through it never a hick up and I never cleaned it yet I know of to many issues with sig but their nice guns but I can’t have cycling issues or random firing pin breaking on me or accidentally discharges Glock for the win

Had a p320 years ago. i never liked the trigger for a defensive firearm. Plus there are WAY too many reports if non contact discharges. I loved the modularity. Glock, the AK of hand guns.

SIG is more and more unsafe like the P320 and P365 the same. Glock rules 😉

There is no best gun as long as u carry. Best shooter yah!🤦

Bird shot vs heavy winter coat at 15 feet>? what do you gents Think??

Sig... Like the safety, and it does not slow you down enough to make a difference.

Glock!!!
