Safety bar SUCK !!!

Very well done.

Mine is definitely not 2 lbs. closer to 5

I own 7. 1 is a 22 magnum. Trigger can be polished to around 2.8. Oz

"The creepy take-up". Yes, that is nerve-wracking. I modified the striker block safety button by removing the spring that affects the "creepy take-up. You can access the safety block and spring by removing the Red Dot adaptor cover on the slide, then removing the oblong cover plate on the slide (one small hex socket screw holds it in.) The spring that is pushing the striker block can be removed (save the little spring) then reassemble without the spring. I do not know why S&W released such a creepy take up into the market. As soon as they, or performance group, or 3rd party trigger people, come up with a fix, I may reuse the spring, so save the little spring. WARNING! This DOES reduce one level of unintentional release of cocked striker safety system.

Although I like the Glock 20 and Glock 29, the factory polymer sights on their firearms need to go. I can't stand them.

do you know how you can tell the date of production by the serial number in a Winchester 94 post 1964?

The worst break in period I had was with a R1 Remington 1911 style. I shot at east 500 jamming rounds, then they disappeared. Never had jams or feeding problems anymore. Clean em (all) good at first and be Patient. But on a 10mm , you may ? need to put a heavier guide spring with the heavy bear loads.

just bought the xten, i guess they hooked me up with an extra mag, because i got 3 of them. after taking it to the range i though to myself "now this is a gun" and made it my edc. I'll never start a fight, but i damn well will finish it.

I’d get a grand power instead.

Get rid of the FMJs for everyday carry. The best defensive .380 ammo is Underwood 90g Xtreme Penetrator. There’s no need for the +P version. Underwood 68g Xtreme Defender +P is good if you have a firearm that can shoot +P and has at least a 3.5 inch barrel. Otherwise, it’s not going to penetrate much more than a Hornady Critical Defense hollow point would, but the Defender will still be more reliable since it cannot fail at expanding. The Penetrator feeds better than the Defender in some older pistols due to being closer to FMJ shape. It shouldn’t be a problem in any modern pistols that are designed to shoot hollow points though.

The Ruger LCP Max, is a great pocket pistol; hard to beat, the Bodyguard is great too. It depends on you, maybe your hand size has something to do with it. I had the old LCP, very reliable, dependable, I didn’t like the trigger on the old one, but the new one is great. Ruger LCP Max is thinner and smaller than the S&W Bodyguard.

this is a great firearm for the women.

Excellent review video. Just bought the P17 in OD Green for $235 plus tax. About 8 months ago a friend let me shoot his P17 and I was very impressed with its reliability, its ammo capacity, accuracy and its price point. Terrific bang for the buck literally and figuratively speaking.

Love my 442 with my DeSantis pocket holster!!

Doesn't the wider handle defeat the advantage of concealment that the p365 is known for being a thinner gun?

How dare you point that gun at me! Your video should be banned! Just kidding. 😂 Excellent video. Really disliked the thinner p365 grip and this Wilson grip looks ideal! You answered all my questions. Thank you!

For the record, I have a Kimber Stainless II model and it's technically a series 80. However, it has a trigger break as crisp as any Springfield or Colt series 70 1911. Almost zero uptake and it breaks like glass every time. It also has a lightning-fast reset and fires very quickly. Apparently modern series 80 1911's have been improved upon.

Really sad so called experts, really hate safeties. They think they are smarter than the manufacturers and end up influencing others. A lot of so-called experts end up discharging weapons accidentally. Just look at the ceiling of any area in which an unchambered gun like at a jail or military guard posts. Lots of holes... So don't dismiss safeties, may save yourself, others or ceiling tiles one day. Lot of people feel they can lower a hammer on a full chamber as well. That's why de-cockers became a trend as well. Safeties are good while traveling through the bush. I would trust a cross bolt over a half cock any day.

Just bought one for $400 flat. It replaced the original bodyguard. Absolutely love it. Running Underwood xtreme penetrator 90 grain +p.

The Presidential campaign is on and I’d like to remind everyone to watch the KZbin Kamala Harris adds in their entirety and then click on the blue “donate” button when the add concludes. Then hit delete and smile because the Dems just paid the maximum for the add.😊

Fiocci ammo sucks, I bought a case and the bullet depth was all over the place.

Amazing gun 🙂 amazing money, amazing quality greetings from czech.

If it fits your hand this is the best carry gun. People who knock the caliber are morons….you want rounds on target period and this caliber is far more accurate

2 pound 9 ounce trigger? That's hairpin level. Idk if that's good for the average person especially in self defense situations.

Excellent review thank you. Purchased mine two Days ago. Fantastic. I have large hands this gun works really well even with the short magazine and a pinky underneath it. Amazing. Same for the ladies and my wife has small hands. If you can find them take the wife and there’s a good chance she’ll buy matching. Absolutely perfect pocket gun or realistically even a small Purse weapon . Do you know you’ve got something that you haven’t shot or perhaps never shot stashed away. Take it with you sell it off to the freight costs put a smile on the ladies face

Excellent review, thank you.

I've had several Mavericks. Absolutely the best budget pump on the market. It will run absolutely any ammo. It only has a jam if it's the shooter's fault. There are parts and accessories for days and days because of it'll fit a 500 it'll fit a maverick. If you don't want a safety you can put a nice 590 trigger group in it. If you want a double safety you can fiddle a bit and put a maverick trigger group in a 500, not sure why you'd wanna do that but you can have a trigger and tang safety at the same time. Weird. The only problem I ever had out of the maverick or 500 was if I dropped them on their side. The shell elevator will pop out of place sometimes if dropped on its side. My fix for that was I drilled and tapped the hinge pins and put a small, smooth rounded bolt on both hinge pins. By doing that I can beat the living He'll out of it and it just simply won't screw up EVER! My favorite thing about this Mossberg line is I can unload without racking it, I can swap barrels in less than a minute, there's a little rubber piece to run shorty rounds in it for more capacity and if you load the last round as a normal round the rubber piece holds it between chambered and magazine with the action open so you can run max capacity with your first round at ready by only pressing the half readied shell into batter with a slight poke and racking the pump forward. ...Yes... I've spent too much time with my Maverick. 😂

The video mentioned defense against Bears, animals in the woods or two legged person. What about defense against mash shooters mass stabber who would like to go after women and children and innocent people in vulnerable places these videos always leave that out

Good to know. My mom has original bodyguard and I swear it feels like a five pound trigger pull.

I’ll take mine with the manual safety please.

👍😎

Who can talk almost 20 minutes about that little handgun?

Well, that does it. I guess I'll wait till one of these float down.

Can trigger be fired when the mechanism when the bolt is not fully locked the barrel.

Great video Bro especially abought the safety!!!!!!!!

Two for owe😭😭😭

Two things were born in 1911 - the incredible pistol featured here...and Ronald Reagan! 🤣😎👍 I agree that the 1911, if not THE best design of all time, is certainly up near the top. I've been running them for fifty years and will probably never switch. But it's a strange view that "high-end 1911s" are less reliable. Wilson Combat properly fits 1911s so they are supremely accurate AND 100% RELIABLE. In fact, as a former competitor, Bill Wilson ranks reliability as the NUMBER ONE requirement for his pistols. I compete in Defensive Pistol competitions with a Wilson and, after ten years and thousands upon thousands of rounds in matches and practice, it has never balked. Not once. Yes, one can fit a 1911 too tightly and affect reliability. But those pistols are not "high-end." They are hack-jobs done by someone unqualified to do the work. Ed brown is another master that makes true high-end 1911s that are accurate, reliable, durable, dependable and beautiful! My EDC is an Ed Brown Kobra Carry in .45ACP and it is equal to the Wilson in accuracy and reliability.

The XL Wilson grip on my std 365 made ALL the difference. It was nearly impossible to drop an expended mag with the original short grip - the mag would hit the meat of my larger hand and nor drop free. With the WC module, that problem is solved. AND it is so much more comfortable in my hand with the slightly more aggressive texture and the slightly more rounded shape. I like my std P365. I LOVE it with the WC grip module. Nice review.

And if the safety was easier to use, then people would complain about inadvertently knocking it off or on.

It’s got that piss-ant thumb safety that you can’t get your thumb on? If you can’t ride it, it’s useless.

Good video, my thought are pretty much the same on SAFETIES. The quastion is why are the P320s haveing ADs but the M17s are not? Is the Trigger - Sear - Fireing Pin system different?

I own a Smith and Wesson Model 65-3. I've heard that the best grain load for self defense? I've heard tat the best grain is 158 grain and anything below that will do damage to the firearm.

The S&W BG 2.0 and the Ruger Security 380 are the best 380s on the planet, hands down😊, test them urself and find out ✊️🇺🇲🙏

That is a range trigger or a competition trigger, funny the looks are more like a carrie gun,hu .

I like it better than the TX22. Better trigger, sights and magazines. Reliability far better imho. Also try the P32.

Wow the dimensions of this pistol are very deceptive. I thought it was closer to p365 size but the grip looks so much slimmer. This could be a game changer for people with little hands.

Got one today with safety and that safety is very very stif , too stiff! Hopefully it smoothes out

great video, thanks!

I didn’t know it wasn’t rated for +p. I shot some underwood extreme defenders +p the other day. It handled it good
