Mossberg 500/590 definitely my favorite. Got my first 500 at 15 years old and that was 40 years ago. That being said, I would caution anyone getting the pistol grip version stock. They suck!! We bought about 40 of them without t&e and it was and is a shit show. Being left handed I can at least still hit the slide release, my right handed coworkers don’t have that luxury. You can’t operate that ambidextrous safety I love so well without changing your grip. I made a comment to our former Sheriff about it and he said it was a training issue. I have taught shotgun classes, it wasn’t a training issue it was a design issue. That being said mine will soon be rocking a normal stick and the ergonomics will be back the way I love them. Thanks for the videos, always great!!

[@NorthMiPatriot]

I could not agree with you more. I got my first Mossberg 500 as an early Christmas present when I was 12. I got it early because deer season here in Mi falls in November. It has taken a lot of game over the last 40+ years and I keep it accessible for home defense. I shot a friend's 590 with the pistol grip and ran into the same problem. I am a righty and had the same issues you mentioned. I think I will keep my old 500, with the slide release and safety that I know and love. I agree that it is a design flaw/issue. In a life or death situation, something like that could get you dead.

@@rcampbell4967 I own a Glock 19 and a 43x. They are 100% stock. They're ok. The CZ P-10C and the P-10S I have are better overall shooters and are cheaper. My Sig p365 macro is better than both S and 43x. My M&P 2.0 is better than the C and the 19. The solitary thing I like more about the 19 and 43, is that the mags are very very very inexpensive and easy to find. You can buy 10-12 Glock mags for the price of 4 CZ, M&P or Sig mags I don't by aftermarket products for pistols unless I don't have any other options. So, I'm sure I could improve the glocks to maybe be as good as the others. But then I could upgrade the others to be even better. Parts upgrades is not a rabbit hole I want to find myself in. I've had failures to feed in all of them besides the P-10S. So, while I will never scoff at someone buying a Glock. This isn't 2010 or 2000. There are better pistols. Just as reliable and do everything better than Glocks for the same price or cheaper.

Great video as usual Chris! Love the practical advice, reasoning behind the rankings, and the humor! Plus the outtake at the end is priceless.

4:40 I am happy your Canik did not have problems. Unfortunately mine has had over a dozen malfunctions in 400 rounds. A hell of a problem foe a defensive firearm.

@@dsxz Elite SC. I don't know what is wrong with it. I've replaced the firing pin assembly and the recoil spring. I'm going to send it back to the factory this week and see if they can find what's going on. No one else I've seen has had this problem. I think I just have some rotten luck.

Beretta APX A1 Full or Compact should be on that list. Otherwise, great video and selections.

I have mine still! Sweet shotgun. 👍

[@mmpatriot2170]

Not as well known as the Mossberg or the Remington, but still a great tactical shotgun. 👍

[@mmpatriot2170]

Haha! That’s awesome. I ended up buying a P10C as my first handgun, mostly based on Honest Outlaw’s recommendation. No regrets. I later bought a P10S, but it never fit my hand very well. The P365 however, feels like it was custom made for me. Honest Outlaw provides so much value. 👍

That Call of Duty Mossberg 590 was awesome! Your version is spot on!

[@edsweeney6843]

Great list! Love your videos. I, too, carry the Shield Plus. The only change I would make is to replace the Glock 43X with a CZ P10S. I didn't realize the S&W folder was available for around $500. Would love to see more videos like this.

[@AMXSShirt]

Still love my p07. Arthritis is making everything a challenge though. 😢

[@Matt07924]

Check out Glock 42 (380) - it is easier to rack and a lighter gun. Could be helpful for you.

I agree on the P365 being a little too small, thats why I got a 365 XL, its the smallest thing I can accurately shoot with.

Hey Chris, love your videos, have learned so much from you. I blame you for turning me into a CZ snob! I got a steal from PSA on a 75 D PCR. I've since installed G10 grips and Cajunized. It's my favorite gun so far. Would love to see you do a video comparison of the various carry sized CZ pistols. Keep doing what you do best, and a big thank you for doing it!

My p365 spectre comp coyote was my first sig and I absolutely love it. I have to say the xray sights are incredible the way they light up, it also definitely has use for people like me that don’t wanna rock a light and give away position but still be able to aim in the dark towards where they are coming from.

[@nickzimonja3382]

Got my p10c for around $400

[@ShizawnSanders]

Not trying to brag but I got a P10C optics ready with tritium night sights for $350 July 4th special. Still can't believe he didn't include the CZ P10 series which are better than the same size Glocks in every way and those are nearly double the price in a lot of cases.

[@mdoe8]

I have a P07 as well. Pretty spiffy urban grey tactical one. Absolutely my favorite gun, and everyone that shoots it loves it. Most who shoot it get sarcastically mad at me because they have to go buy one themselves. It’s been 100% reliable through 1K+ rounds and I shoot it very well. Dry firing, the trigger is meh…but you don’t notice it at all when your focus is not solely on finding imperfections in the trigger. The gun is fantastic, and I recommend it to everyone.

[@traviscoombes3578]

I shot the 365 macro, and I didn't like it. Then I shot the Prodigy, and I didn't care for it either. My M&P 2.0 with the overwatch precision trigger and Ed Brown threaded barrel blows them out of the water. But that's just my experience and opinion.

[@robertfandel9442]

Was it under 500 with trigger and barrel?

[@traviscoombes3578]

@robertfandel9442 no, but I expressed my opinion anyway.

[@ShizawnSanders]

That's a completely different class of firearm. The 365 is a super thin concealed carry firearm while the MP 2.0 is a true duty gun. Not saying the 2.0 isn't better than a P320(what would be in its class) because I believe it is but your comparison is apples to oranges. The Prodigy to P365 is like apples to watermelons.

[@traviscoombes3578]

[@HighCRI]

It’s the same thing the gun world itself suffers from. The gun industry doesn’t move as fast as social media does, so you either get info that’s repeated to death or tons of releases with small iterations that only have marginal differences.
