I even ordered the pdf collection of all his "Ayoob Files" articles for American Handgunner magazine. It is amazing how seriously over the top critique of his first impression of GLOCK was received. He was damned near crucified for an honest opinion. It took him about a year to dig himself out of the hole the book critics dug for him.

I credit Mr. Ayoob with my choice in firearms over the years. While my dad may have started the interest, it was reading and listening to Mr. Ayoob that I learned the respect and appreciation for firearms that I hold today. My brother went the way of the Beretta, and I went with Glock. To this day the Glock 19 and 26 are my favorites, while the Sig P226 and S&W Model 60 are my favorite DA/SA offerings. When someone asks me a question about a particular firearm, or mindset to carry a firearm; I point them to my bookshelf with the Massad Ayoob collection. His written works assisted me in being a juror on several cases, and has been forefront in my attitude to carrying guns. Similarly there are instances I chose NOT to have a gun around, and to that I credit Mr. Ayoob as well. Ken Hackathorn on the flipside has taught me so much in his videos and demos on handling, maintenance, and safety. I don't believe in mandatory training requirements, but if it had to be done these men are the ones who should be doing it. Much respect and appreciation to their collective wisdom and teaching. 🔥

Now, to be clear, my expertise and abilities are non-existent in comparison to these superb professionals, however, I was impressed with their opinions re revolvers and traditional DA/SA autoloaders. I happen to favor the CZ 75-B, but I own and admire the Sig P22X series and the H&K USPs. I’d never before thought of the advantage of a manual safety - like a manual transmission for carjackings - but it makes a great deal of sense. So, manny thanks!

I too value the Kahr DAO most of all! That utterly safe, never cocked until full trigger pull, which is smooth like BUTTER. I had the original K9 all steel and soft rubber grip model---wonderful gun!...........................elsullo

My every day carry is my S&W 38 special ultralite revolver with the red dot. Fits my hand perfectly. Very comfortable gun for a female. I always recommend this to my female friends who want to get a gun for the 1st time.

Two of the greatest trainers and gun writers of all time! Awesome to see Mas and Ken still in it for 40+ years! Think about that. These two helped revolutionize training from revolver to auto in police and civilian circles. Their wisdom will keep you alive in a lethal encounter. For my entire police career I've carried a j-frame on my ankle because of Mas. Stressfire. "Way of the weasel!" You don't have to fight fair...just win!

Great interview that inevitably makes you go through your own experiences and preferences with guns. S&W Model 66 and the pre B CZ75 are the best guns (and firsts) for me. I used the Beretta M9s in the Army, but something always felt off with their balance and weight with those pistols despite their accuracy. DA/SA shooting takes practice-- relax and let it happen. Love the challenge. Easy. 1911s are the best gun set up IMO.

I learned to shoot on 1911's. My first ever gun book was Cooper on Handguns and as many people know, he would gripe all the time about the transition between double and single action trigger on DA autos. When I became a cop, we were issued HK USP .40 cal autos. We had to carry the pistol with the safety off and the hammer down. I used fired perfect scores with the pistol with no issues. Anyone that knows the basics of proper pistol shooting will not have a problem with any pistol they fire as long as they take the time to get to know the pistol.

Back in the late 80's a friend of mine, who was a cop, used to preach Mr.Ayoobs techniques. I had no idea who this guy was. But I followed his "Training ". Then internet kicked in and I was able to be more familiar with him. Until then I only had an article or two in magazines to read about him. This guy is a true firearms master. Legend has it that when Massad speaks, E.F. Hutton listens....

Enjoyed the video. It is interesting hearing wisdom on the technical and mechanical aspects of firearms and how people had to troubleshoot them back in the day as well as modern features that fix or improve those issues. Grateful to live in America where we have innovation constantly improving for firearms.
