Mossberg MC2sc Tabletop Review and Field Strip

[@edwardbohlman3209]

Based in part on your recommendation, I purchased a MC1sc for $256 back in 2019. Based on the excellence of that gun, I bought a MC2c the following and found it to be even better! I just found out about the MC1sc yesterday, so thanks for the early review. I suspect I'm going wish I'd waited buying my Ruger Max-9. The Mossberg pistols are criminally underappreciated and when people do bother to review them, they just whine about how weird the disassembly is! You, at least, pointed out how easy it is to clean the striker channel. The MC2c is easily my favorite carry pistol and I can't wait to get my hands on the MC2sc! Thanks!

[@cnczamora11]

Me too..!!!...lol

[@deucedeuce1572]

They're excellent guns. The price is really fair too. I'm amazed at how Glock-like they are though. I don't dislike Glocks at all and can see why they're popular... but I'm just surprised that so many companies want to copy them so perfectly. You can take a Glock apart the same way if your take-down lever isn't working or your trigger won't disengage and they even selll back plates with the same kind of button release (Strike Industries). In any case though, (for some people) it's like that made a better Glock than Glock for half the price.

[@PatriotPaulUSA]

@@deucedeuce1572 Just Like Palmetto did with their Dagger G19ish gun. Its amazing that US companies can do all kinds of improvements that Glock still wont do, and they can sell their guns for half the price of Glock! It kinda shows me that Glocks have always been very overpriced, in my mind, and still are. (just my opinion) I guess that is why I have never bought one and own other brands. My PSA Dagger performs just fine, and has an optics cut, for a Holosun, beveled and scalloped slide, threaded barrel, suppressor height sights, steel guide rod, and more for $350.00 in a very nice range bag, etc. This US made Mossberg MC2sc is another one to make me put Glock back, because of its pricing and lack of features.

[@deucedeuce1572]

@@PatriotPaulUSA Yeah, and I'm willing to bet that a PSA dagger costs just as much to produce as a Glock. I can't say for certain, but that would be an interesting thing to know. (Costs about $40 to produce a Glock, if you include every single cost of the entire company vs each gun produced).

[@BiggCliph]

I don’t understand why this gun isn’t more popular. Great engineering, cheaper than most of its competitors, and comfortable shooting. It truly is the dark horse of the micro/subcompact 9’s

[@scotteger6271]

I wonder if the Surefire XSC made for the P365 would work on this? Since that light grips the Sig proprietary rail without a rail slot.

Nice review. I really like what Mossberg is doing lately especially now that they are back into handguns. CZ and Beretta missed the mark with recent releases not having the expected capacity. Optics cut is expected also now. I hope Mossberg adds optic cut or option for it on the MC1 and MC2C. I look forward to see how it runs in GB guns hands.

[@119fatty]

I'm really disappointed in CZ for that, honestly. I really would have considered one if they had the capacity.

How easy is it to rack the slide? For instance how doe sit compare to Bersa Thunder 380 vs Walther PPQ SC? I've owned the Bersa and heard that the PPQ SC has an easier slide as well as opposed to the Stoeger STR 9MC which some have said is not good for weaker hands.

[@Suz4155]

For a weaker hand or for a woman, I would not recommend . I've had good strength in my hands/ arms in my life. I'm saying a lot of strength, recently my left hand has loss strength and it's difficult to pull the slide back with that hand. Used to have a 90-100 lb grip in my hands. I hope that helps.

the 365xl and 365x won the Micro compact race as far as I'm concerned. The shield+ is a close second but hopefully the innovation will keep on coming.

[@GBGuns]

I like the XL for its realistic barrel length, but there are options now that are more shootable than the originals.

[@toy4tao]

P365 shoots like 💩

[@mjizzle42071]

Just because Sig dropped the p365 first doesn’t mean it’s the best. There are better options that shoot flatter, faster and produce from concealment much better. Not to mention you can’t co-witness your optic and iron sights with any p365 optic cut firearm. However, kudos to Sig for their innovation and starting the train for all other to jump on.

[@freedomdiggersmetaldetecti8964]

I own both a 365 & a recently purchased Shield plus. The shield has better grip angle/texture, better trigger (by far) and much better recoil control. My 365 is now a medicine cabinet gun.

[@PatriotPaulUSA]

Even the Sig Guys didn't like the short little 10 round 365 grip. Most Sig guys I know, have gone away from the standard 10 round P365 to the 17 round P365XL to get a longer grip and a 3/4" longer slide. (To control muzzle flip and have a better grip). I could Not appendix carry that 365 with no trigger safety. To each their own though.

[@fireguy_75]

The MC1SC is one of my favorite guns to cc. Extremely underrated gun. I didn't even know the made the MC2SC until I saw this video. Double stack, 10+1 instead of 7+1? Might have to go check one out n see if it feels as good in the hand as the MC1SC does?

[@douglasroyce5631]

Excellent review !

[@lizzapaolia959]

Excellent video as always 😁. We're definitely interested in purchasing one with the safety. God bless 🙏👌

[@Tactical_reload]

I have the MC1sc and my only gripe is with G43 mags you can't +1 it without unseating the mag and having an empty chamber on follow up. This may just be MY gun as it was used but I have read others having similar issues. Other than that great gun, 2" groups at 10 yards despite the micro size

[@scotteger6271]

I have a Ruger Max 9 and it’s ok but I like some things about this…most notably the mag compatibility with the larger MC2c

[@PatriotPaulUSA]

Very Nice, Video. I love the ingenious takedown procedure and the memory pads and the build quality looks good. I haven't seen one of these in my area stores. I am looking forward to seeing one someday. After 3yrs, I just bought my 1st micro 9mm. I ended up with the Canik Mete MC 9. Like you, I have large hands and I didn't like, most micro size handguns. With the largest backstrap and their grip design, it felt the best. I would have liked to compare it to a Mossberg MC2sc. I do like the Canik MC9 can use their standard doublestack mags. Not a 1.5 stack proprietary mag. I love my Mossberg 590S shotgun and the company, so I am sure I will try one out in the future. I do not like proprietary rails, like Sig/Glock do, especially when picatinny has been a long held standard. Don't do that Mossberg! Your pistol looks fine otherwise. Great video GB Guns!

Since you own both, could you confirm if the MC2C slide will fit on the MC2SC? I've been dying to know!

[@deanwebb409]

Any new holster releases for the MC2sc yet? Mossy won out over the Ruger Max 9 because of finger pinch, mag cap, and comfort in the hand. Trigger pull 5# 6.2 oz consistently. S&W Shield Plus Performance Ctr feels very similar with the Mossberg feeling equally as comfortable but ever so slightly smaller. Hardly noticeable. Moss slightly smaller and lighter for better carrying. Think I'll like very much. Want to break it in with several hundred rounds before mounting the red dot and calling it protection ready and EDC.

[@GBGuns]

You made the right choice, this is a much better gun than the others. As far as holsters, if you're good with leather most Shield holsters should fit.

[@rosemarsili9159]

Is the slide on this pistol as difficult to manipulate as the Hellcat, or is it almost as easy as the Sig P365 pistols?

[@Master-AGN]

Easy-to-shoot is because of flat sides. I think it was Rex Applegate that promoted this type grip.

[@85juney]

I was looking to buy a Taurus G3C at a gun show, and asked one of the vendors about pricing, etc. on one they had. The guy said the Taurus is ok, but you need to try this Mossberg. I said "a Mossberg PISTOL???" Once I got it in my hands and he ran through the features, I quickly changed my mind and got the MC2C. Works like a charm at the range, I second everything said here!

You don't have to remove the striker first in order to take down the slide. Remove the back plate first, then release the slide. The striker will fall off itself.

On firearms like the AR you have a slight chance of damaging the mag or the feed lips. With pistols like this there is a chance you'll damage the feed ips or the ejector.

[@kenhoward3512]

"The slide has some play" - is that good or bad? Is there a meaningful correlation between slide play and how a gun shoots? It seems like some play - which virtually all pistols have - would be better for reliability than if it were too tight.

[@realeyesrealize388]

If your side to side movement moves the barrel, which it would you would be hindering the accuracy of your gun. Compare that to a gun like the CZ75 where there is no movement side to side due to the lower receiver overlapping the slide instead of most pistols that the slide overlaps the receiver you'll see why why CZ75 is one of the most accurate pistols out there. The same could be said for guns like the Makarov, and Desert Eagle that the barrel is fixed in place.

@@GBGuns well, being lefty one of the things I'd want is the same thing I want any micro compact to have: an ambi slide release. But I'd also like to see them change up the included magazines. I thought these were compatible with MC2C mags, but that has 13 round flush and 15 round extended mags, but this takes 11 and 14 round mags. It sounds like the magazines might not be intercompatible since their page doesn't even mention being able to use them.

The safety ruins it for me. I would have to reverse it to push it off with my thumb on with my finger, though I don’t like the idea of a safety so close to the trigger even though it’s common on rifles and shotguns.

@@GBGuns Thank you, that’s good to know. 😀

These are highly underrated guns! I have the MC2C and love it. Imho it’s just as good as a Sig P365XL or Glock 48 at a much lower price. I did add night sights and the M-Carbo spring kit to mine but the stock trigger ain’t bad at all. The downside is finding holsters and spare mags. I found a nice IWB from Clinger. Thanks for an informative review.

[@justinkruse2579]

Did you have any issues getting the extractor pivet roll pin out of the Mc2c using the 1/16th punch. I have bent 2 punches on them. I have both the Mc1sc and Mc2c and cant get either of them out. Any help would be appreciated.

[@MrSteveb1]

@@justinkruse2579 I didn’t. Yours must be especially tight. Maybe take it to a gunsmith? Good luck.

Which brand night sights are you using?

@@MrSteveb1 nice…thanks for the tip…I couldn’t remember what dovetail Mossberg was using. I’m guessing it’s 8/8 front/rear…does it shoot point of aim/point of impact?

Why do these companies keep making everything in a 9mm. How about a variety, maybe .380 or .32 auto hi capacity, always a 9mm. Guess they think this is the only ammo that can stop somebody.....

[@GBGuns]

No, but it is the world's most popular handgun cartridge so it's a good place to start.

This gun is weird af.

Glock , or go home.

[@greginthesouth2621]

You sound like fun 😂

[@GBGuns]

We were all there at some point. You're new, don't know what to buy, someone talks you into a Glock and so you defend your purchase with all your might, not yet knowing enough, or having experienced enough to know any better. I wrote a somewhat controversial article about this a while back titled, "Why You Should and Shouldn't Glock". Glocks are a great place to learn, and will certainly teach you enough to make a more personal and better-fitting choice the next time. Or, some folks stick with Glock for reasons we may never know.

Oh snap, offended a Glock fanboy.

[@Smarterthanyou-mthrfkr]

@@GBGuns I truly are a any gun person, coming from the uk , and settling in texas, I just learnt with a glock, combat shot with a glock, I have several pistols smith , Walter, etc, I just am very comfortable with the glock in my iwb hard holster. It’s never failed in 6000 rounds over ten years. I would carry wife sig too sometimes. I just always seem to default to glock, yawn.😂.

[@Visiblyblue]

Nice review 👍. Any suggestions for AIWB holsters with a claw for this model?

[@GBGuns]

I'd suggest looking at holsters meant to field the Shield. If you go with plastic you may have to heat and adjust.
