A new 13+1 micro 9 contender. The IWI Masada Slim.

[@carykozberg9229]

This IS a great little pistol. Have had mine for a couple of months and it's my favorite of all the ones I own.

[@rdrgear]

I was very impressed In how well it shot. Took me a few mags with the new trigger. But I’m really liking the Masada slim. I have a few red dots for it. So it make a round two on the channel.

[@wilf6384]

This is a fantastic little pistol. I just picked mine up this week and tossed the Holosun 507k which mounts perfectly and has a perfect 1/3 lower co-witness. I wish there was better stippling, the light rail doesn’t bother me as I cart during the day, Al seldom out at night and if I do go out at night I carry my 229 Legion RXP w the TLR-7, that’s a hell of a great pistol also, on another level than the S9 but I digress. IWI knocked it out if the part with the Slim imo. I’ll have it stopped but beyond that it needs nothing and it takes CZ 75 mags!!!

Jeff out here always putting out absolute fire reviews

[@rdrgear]

Appreciate the support.

I agree with Don Porter (Sootch00), we Are in the Golden Age of Firearms! I’m still looking for a concealed carry gun. I have my upgraded G17 for home & vehicle, a Surprising gem of a G19 sized Stoeger STR 9 for range fun and a very reliable backup to my Glock….but this new offering from IWI could be a great concealed carry gun for being out & about in an unhinged society!!!! Thx Brother

[@pro-tekprofessionalservice1531]

Great video brother. Definitely a great option for the micro world.

[@gilleonard7378]

My favorite EDC.

[@gswguy4554]

The gun is modular…. Perhaps IWI or an aftermarket company like Wilson combat? ( they make frames for the 320 series of sigs.. hopefully they’ll branch out to different manufacturers.?)…. As the gun sits now it’s a great range/ truck gun. Good video 👍

[@mpwmu9041]

Been looking at them for awhile now. Looks good. Great vid.

[@rdrgear]

I was very impressed at how well the pistol shot.

[@mpwmu9041]

@@rdrgear What are your thoughts on the takedown? I don't like the idea of having to pull a pin out to field strip.

[@rdrgear]

@@mpwmu9041 I agree. But I’m only doing it at home or at the shop. During maintenance. So it’s not really a big deal.

[@crewduba5946]

@rdrgear excellent video for someone who is thinking about a new micro or sub compact. I carried mine for a year and a few months and loved shooting it. Its going back to IWI after a click no bang range sesh the other day. No primer strikes to be seen. Very disappointing and wanted to let folks know about. Hopefully we'll know what happend in a few weeks.

[@joshpomponio2993]

I think I may like that thanks guys 👊

[@FamilyFirearmReviews]

These are great. Definitely giving the p365 some competition.

[@sk21rt54]

Nice pistol!

[@alphamale4497]

Been waiting for this forever

[@lizzapaolia959]

Look forward to seeing your range review. My husband and I are seriously thinking of purchasing two of these pistols. I'm looking for a reliable CCW while exercising outdoors. My husband needs a smaller pistol on some work days... Thanks for sharing this video 🙏

[@awesomedave8484]

Appreciate the review, thank you.

[@rosemarsili9159]

I love the Shield Plus and actually just bought one, but I'm still intrigued by this little guy. I've heard some say it's snappier than the Plus, though. Have you found that to be the case in your experience?

[@rdrgear]

Not sure if it’s snappier, the muzzle rise is more noticeable with all sub-compact/micro 9’s. Advantage of the Masada slim. Is that it’s optic ready.

[@samgoral4]

What’s the blade in the thumbnail photo?

[@crp9347]

I've been looking for one of these for months now and can't find one and no one can seem to locate one. Disappointed!

[@kevinharrington7187]

Any recommendations for a owb holster for this pistol?

[@mishagofman1706]

LAG Tactical Liberator MKII It is fully ambi - LH-RH-IWB-OWB

[@MassJass]

And it takes CZ mags

[@DS..69]

Its a carry gun, not a duty gun. Get its big cousin if you want that. Two totally different guns though. Same great build, trigger, reliability and price.

[@rdrgear]

I have the Masada, we have done a review on it. Great pistol

[@lawrencethompson3726]

If the lights go out and you dont have no weapon light on your gun- good luck!

[@rdrgear]

Handheld light my friend. You will be amazed at how much you can get done with a handheld light. And having proper low light no light training. Of course it’s Ideal to have both, handheld and a WML. I carried a pistol for almost 15 years for a paycheck. Never ran a pistol light. But I always had a handheld surefire or Streamlight on my belt or in mh pocket.

[@TJHill-qx9hy]

@@rdrgear Awesome reply - for those of us that didn't "have the option" of a weapons light - we trained for a worst case scenario - Like wise for those adamant about weapons lights, What If - your handy dandy weapon mounted light goes out for whatever reason - what is your backup plan? I know mine ;-)

[@avidplanes]

@@rdrgear isn’t using a handheld light compromising the grip you have which is even more concerning with a smaller weapon with higher recoil never owned a gun just a legitimate question

[@Gh0st_____]

Wsup man. Can you recommend me a safariland level 3 holster that you sell for a staccato c2 with Acro p2 and with x300 turbo

[@Gh0st_____]

@rdrgear

[@rdrgear]

The Acro p2 is not compatible with the 6360 level 3. Staccato holster The SLS bail won’t clear the top of the Acro. If you are using the P2. The level 3 is not an option. Jeff

[@bsing9992]

What is that knife???

[@johnmiranda9310]

I believe these category of firearms can do without a light. If this will be your ccw piece, it would be unwise to mount a light as in why would you use a light for a defense gun. It could open a world of legal issues if you do use it. You can see why.

[@BigDaddysPlati]

Sig,M&P and Springfield had a baby 😂🤮

[@rdrgear]

Have you shot one yet?
