Paul is so modest when he points to himself as an "average shooter" I feel like saying "No Paul, we have all seen you shoot through the years and you sir are not average." Anybody remember the demonstration covering shooting guns out of people's hands? That was good shooting!

[@rdrrr]

At one point Paul felt he needed to demonstrate his credentials and dumped a whole damn box worth of shooting competition medals on the table. I think Paul just likes to keep himself humble and not rest on his laurels. I think it's fair to put him in the 95th percentile of shooters (that is, in the top 5% by ability).

[@Hjerte_Verke]

@@rdrrr Not only a box of medals but stacks of plaques and upright trophies, the gold cup kind, if you've seen what he says is "most" of the collection. Still he is average compared to people who can shoot out the entirety of the ace from an Ace of Spades ♤

“This is not my Glock. There are many like it but this one is not mine.” Very interesting comparison. I think your takeaway nails it. It might give serious (read “rich”) competitors an edge but for the average (read “not rich”) shooter, not so much.

[@danielmacdonald8358]

His video on pump shotguns was instrumental in making me a better shooter with the pump shotgun.

[@repentnow1720]

Paul - Alien 9 owner here. My brother brought out his CZ Shadow2 and we did a Coke vs Pepsi taste test. Our very unscientific conclusions were that although the Alien 9 does indeed have a different recoil impulse than the CZS2, there was almost "Not enough difference to make a difference" and our groups with both contestants suggested the same. The slightly smaller grip of the Shadow2 fit my hand better, and his $1k CZ was (as you stated) $4K LESS than my Alien 9. I'll never sell it, but the point you made about getting something else and spending the additional $4k on ammo and training is 100% valid.

[@Neomalthusiano]

Diminishing returns. I once heard from a well-off guy who owned around eight high end pistols that the CZ shadow 2 was unbeatable in it's price tag and would leave little to be desired in performance against any other pistol. It was way before laugo, so I'm not comparing the two directly. Still, once you achieve what the Shadow 2 does, you need to start pouring a lot of money to get more performance. CZ has done it best to offer price-performance in the shadows, even getting to the point of designing a gun without a firing pin block. But that's so life. Up to a point, if we eschew high-end sport performance and focus only in mundane real life drills, a Taurus TS9 with no other modification than a polished firing pin, would do everything a Shadow 2 does, but weighting less, being less difficult to conceal and with the advantage of being drop safe. Unfortunately, due to a license deal, Taurus doesn't sell that pistol in North America, but that's a gun they could offer in the price range of a glock generation 5...

[@marshaul]

@@Neomalthusiano To quibble without disagreeing with your main point: the CZ Shadow 2 is perfectly drop safe in conditions 0 or 1. So just don't carry in condition 2.

Over time Paul continues to show us with tangible facts that in the vast majority of comparisons between expensive equipment and equipment at common prices, the difference, if there is one, does not really justify the investment. As always thank you Paul!

[@phlogistanjones2722]

Most "really expensive guns" probably would not make any difference to the lower 90% - 95% of shooters as you point out. Convincing folks that spending that extra money on practice ammo and range time is a real hard pull. LOTS easier convincing Joe-Blo (and myself) that THIS HYEAR THINGY CAN MAKE YOU A WIZ BANG SHOOTER! Especially if it is cerakoted or tacti-cool or has nifty blinkin'-lites or the name "Dan Wesson" or "Ed Brown" on it. :) CHEERS!

I have the 941 polymer version we call it the baby desert eagle here, and it is by far my worst shooting pistol, at 25m I can barely keep 10 rounds on a issf rapidfire target. I love its form, function and reliability but shooting it depresses me, not sure if its just me or the gun but I just can't get it to perform close to my other pistols perhaps polymers just aren't for me. .

[@andrewforward3812]

Had 9 941FS over 30yrs. Still have 5 of them. Have on one over 120k rounds on it. Combined with other gripp panels, they fit like a glove and Istill like the a lot. Allof my ones had tight tolerances and where fairly accurate. The poliygon barrel was picky to some sort of bullets and weights, not in function, just in accuracy. But If I was using it, I did could check what I wanted to use, so I took the best for her guts. Still love them.

That said, there are a ton of good pistols these days that work very well, are accurate, and people buy lots of them. We live in a good time for finding a decent gun at a reasonable price. I get a smile on my face when folks mention their new favorite gun to me that they shoot well, the grip is right, the sights/optic is right, the width, length, weight, ammo count, all of that has them all excited AND they did not have to take out a loan to buy it. No, I will not say what my favorite is. No way. I don't want the blow back from those that want to convert me to their favorite gun. Been down that dead end road and it always looks the same. I'll stay happy and hope everyone finds their happy place and their favorite gun.

Big, clunky and ugly as sin, but they're affordable and you can expect them to work. Hi-Point carbines are handy little PCCs, too. They work, and you can't beat 'em for price. Somebody needs to provide low-cost options. Folks of few means need a firearm to protect themselves and their property too. Damn the snobs, I'm glad Hi-Point do what they do.

I do like the concept of a handgun built with for less muzzle rise. My S&W 422 incorporated a form of this and it seemed to make followup shots faster (for a small 22LR). Unfortunately my eldest daughter loved it as much as I did. 🙄 Maybe I'll find another one some day.

[@ShrewdBone]

IPSC person here. I drive a Tanfoglio. It's basically the Jericho but a bit nicer (bull barrel, bigger mag catch, better trigger etc.) and more expensive. Actually, I would've bought the 941FS (Steel frame with a frame mounted safety) if there were any on the market when I was looking for a production class pistol.

[@derekp2674]

Thanks Paul and team, that was really interesting. For paper target accuracy, my "go to" 9mm would be an old school SIG 210 but every so often I am surprised by how accurate some Browning Hi-Powers can be with decent ammo.

[@alexander1902]

Add a Hi-Power trigger job from MK3 firearms and it is a dream.

[@HumphreyHorsehead]

I'm a big fan of the Jericho. Mine is an FS9 which is their "mid sized" all steel model. I find it to be an absolute tack driver of a pistol and the all steel construction makes recoil fairly minimal. I used to have a compact Beretta 92 and between them I prefer the Jericho for a 9mm.

[@manarazor4782]

Wait I thought the “941” was midsized? Has my life been a lie this entire time😂 or is the difference that steel model?

[@HumphreyHorsehead]

@Mana razor well it's complicated. The Jericho as we know it has gone by several different brand names and designations in the past. For example it used to be known as the Baby Eagle. Even here we see Paul is using an R model which they don't make anymore. From IWI's website there are 2 models of Jericho 941 in current production, both all steel. The F9 and the FS9. The F9 is considered full sized and the FS9 midsized. The only difference between them is barrel/slide length with the F9 having 4.4in and the FS9 having 3.8in. The .45 caliber model and both of the polymer framed models are listed as discontinued with the latter being replaced by the newer Jericho Enhanced (as opposed to 941) models. Interestingly the reason it's dubbed 941 is because it was originally designed to be interchangeable between 9mm and the more potent .41AE. That's also why the all steel models are on the heavy side for a 9mm. Since .41AE lost out to .40S&W much like HDDVD did to BluRay its been doomed to obscurity thus IWI no longer makes the conversion kits for it. At least we get to have a nice all steel 9mm in the end.

[@maxcactus7]

I worked at a large gun shop years ago and handled and sold many of those Jericho 941s and they all had superb DA/SA triggers and excellent ergonomics (ala the CZ-75) Very highly recommended.

[@jamesmaysflyingwashingmach7459]

The Jericho 941 definitely has a better trigger than the CZ's. Dunno about the rest of the construction though.

@@alexander1902 That was my point. I was saying that since Paul was able to achieve a similar level of accuracy and speed with the Alien compared to the 92FS, that it was likely a very good pistol as he hasn't had to learn and adjust like he has with others.

@@HTacianas the $4000 price tag comes from the fact that it’s an innovative piece that’s a one of a kind. It’s not meant to turn a first time shooter into John Wick.

As a shootist that Alien is absolutely amazing. I shot a friend’s gun and it was better then I am with my 941, G17, G22, Sig X5 and Beretta 92. Of course I can’t afford one and will never buy one, but it’s absolutely worth the price, if you hunt or shoot competitively. Also worth it if you already own 20 different pistols and want a “perfect” pistol. 1% better is expensive, and 2% better is very expensive. The Alien is 2.5-5% better and is actually a bargain compared to a ground up custom 1911/2011 that may or may not shoot as well as a Legion or X-5. (Don’t like the sights though and shot the RMR upper sooooo much better). What I’m saying is Paul’s experience is the same as mine only the Alien was slightly better and faster for me, even cold.

Hey Paul. Because of your comparison and review of ammo a few videos back, I decided I liked the Sig Sauer V-Crown ammo and decided to purchase some to replace my Hornady ammo (which you've indicated have poor performance). I got 200 rounds in 9x19 and 200 in .40 S&W. Surprisingly the .40 S&W ammo was about 5 bucks a box less than the 9mm. Anyway I feel much more comfortable keeping my pistols loaded with the V-Crown, especially because my 9mm was loaded with that cheap IMI ammo. The IMI ammo served its purpose at the time I purchased it when ammo was so hard to find. Anyway the IMI ammo will be great for plinking.

For a pistol I'd never fired before I was shooting as good as my prodigy with an optic and much faster. And that little gun doesn't have much muzzle flip either. In fact I had to upgrade the spring on it so I could shoot more quickly as it felt like I had to wait for the slide to go forwards before pulling the trigger again. I am very impressed with the Alien. Better start saving money.

Paul shot the Alien better than every pistol except the 92FS... but the Beretta is his main carry gun and he has more experience with it than every other handgun he owns combined. Nearly as good out of the box as a pistol he has years of experience shooting. I consider that a ringing endorsement of the Alien.

Great presentation I read about the Alien thought the lower bore would help it, then saw the price.

[@jlbksinger]

Nice mix of pistols Paul.

What this all shows is your consistency. 😎👍

My Jericho has been my favorite pistol put of the 2 dozen or so ive owned.

[@rickpineo2588]

Looks like you bonded with that Jericho quite well sir. Perhaps it’s worth a video in itself.

[@PaulHarrell]

I was VERY impressed with the Jericho.

​@@PaulHarrell well I think the owner would be OK with you doing a stand alone video

@@PaulHarrell I bought my Jericho 941 at a gun show where I was able to handle it right beside the Beretta 92FS. Both had great fit to my hands and both actions seemed to be very smooth. The 92FS was $200 more, so being a little frugal, I went for the 941. Interested in what ammo was used for this demonstration? Was it plain range practice ball ammo or some type of defense rounds?

[@PaulHarrell]

@@roll-aid6655 The ammo used in this demo was Remington G/W box 9X19 115 gr. FMJ

[@roll-aid6655]

@@PaulHarrell Thank you! I use the Winchester counterpart -- red & white 9x19 115 gr FMJ.

Family member has a Model 59 that he inherited, and MAN, the trigger on that thing is so light. Old Guy must have had a job done on it, cause the gun itself is nearly immaculate. It's a sweet piece.

Paul Harrell goes to the doctor... Doctor: Mr. Harrell, do you have any guns in your home? Paul Harrell: I have a Laugo Alien, a SIG M17, a Beretta Model 92FS, a S&W Model 59 AND a Jericho 941R...IN MY POCKETS!!!!!

[@jasonb7878]

Thanks for another good one.

Paul getting his hands on a Laugo before a lot of "high speed" guys. Classic
