I wasn't special forces in the army but I was an MP (military police) so having a pistol was primary/sidearm. Working patrol or law enforcement the pistol most of the time was my only weapon. These gentlemen definitely made very solid points and I agree with practically everything they said.

[@soonerfrac4611]

Same here. My entire time as an MP, even during the GWOT was CONUS. Have been carrying a pistol since I was 19, 43 now.

[@sombra6153]

I had a reserve MP Escort Guard detachment in the late 80s. My issued weapon was a 1911A1. As the unit’s primary mission would put us up close to the fight if not in the middle of it, I would have gotten my hands on a rifle. I used to take them to the nearby Army post periodically so they could ride shotgun with the regular MPs in order to maintain LE skills. One night, they responded to the post bank alarm. One of my Jr NCOs exited the sedan, drew his 1911 and chambered a round. Apparently that was a no-no, but we smoothed it over. I don’t think he did anything wrong, but Army was so set in their ways. BTW, the alarm was false, I was an 11B masquerading as an MP, and most of what I thought I knew about MP operations came from stories my dad, a former MP in Germany, had told me growing up.

[@pocketsand4404]

Pistols are definitely more relevant when it comes to civilians and police imo. In the military if you have to draw your sidearm in combat, things have gone very very wrong.

[@ms.annthrope415]

Yes but there are many times special forces are not carrying rifles. They are dressed in mufti and only carrying a pistol. They may be on a mission where their pistol must be used offensively to remove guards and entries to get to thr principal without beinf able to carry a rifle. For regular military, if you're using a pistol, things are really bad and you're out of rifle ammo.

[@MichaelSisley-fw3xr]

The advice to new shooters was so perfect. Something reliable, cheap, put more money into ammo and train. Later, get something else if you like. Makes a lot of sense. I got a G19 when they first became available in the US. Still have that first one. All the time and training on it made me stay with Glock, though I have bought other brands, some I have liked (namely, CZs) and some I never quite liked well enough (S&W, something about the grip, it always felt off to my hand). I think everyone needs to determine what works best for THEM. Nobody can decide that better than the individual themselves. These days, if you cannot find something you like, look harder. We live in a day of options with so many well made guns out there, AND in any size you like. I am an old fart and I lived long enough ago to experience fewer choices.

[@waynehendrix4806]

Sort of having a bittersweet choice like that now. Got the M17, 320, whatever... but my 1911 Kimber was always built for my hand and eyes, and the orange dot on my target. Round count guys can start yelling at me now....and if they do, I have another 100 grains coming for them...

[@MichaelSisley-fw3xr]

@@waynehendrix4806 Round count gets fixed easily with carrying a spare mag. That Kimber will do just fine, since you are well trained with it AND like it.

[@Zoroff74]

I agree. Although my handgun experience is'n't extensive, I've spent decades using knives and other tools, and for me they all have the same basic function in the way that it's your hands that know which tool fits you well. If it feels comfortable to use, then it will work good to use and you will want to use it. If you manage to find/improve a grip so that you don't feel it, it's just there as an extension of your arm, that's when you have perfection. It's not necessary to have great fit, with enough training one can manage anything, but unless one is going to be that disciplined and spend all that extra time, having a gun or other tool that is a joy to use is going to make progress so much faster.

[@44Mag]

I am in the same boat....How did you learn to acquire the dot quickly? I bought a APX-A1 that came with a dot (cheap one) and I could not get the hang of locating the dot quickly - always found my head bobbing and weaving to find it. - I liked the gun fine, but I sold it after just a month because Baretta was backordered on flat covers if you wanted to remove the dot. - Basically you were stuck with the cheap dot it shipped with. Does a higher-end dot make it easier to find/learn?

[@oldtimehockey7324]

I had the same problem of learning how to find the dot. Purchased a surefire X400 with the green laser emitter. Mount the light / laser combo on the rail below your barrel. I had to buy a sig as my 19 did not have a rail. Make sure your red dot is sighted properly. Line up your laser and red dot. I chose a distance of 15 yards. Turn your laser on and practice your draw stroke. You will learn to walk the laser dot right into the middle of your red dot sight window during the draw stroke. Practice practice practice while dry firing. After awhile it becomes second nature. It’s an expensive setup but it really helped me become more proficient.

[@RustProofHero]

@@44Mag After you get dot sighted in at the distance you want, don’t look for the dot for quick accusations, line up your irons and you will see the dot every time for faster shooting.

Im a Glock guy since the early 90s. Now my cc is a Sig365. I don't see that changing. Still cc a full frame G20 in winter. Makes me feel like Sonny Crocket.

As a Staccato CS and G19 owner, best of both worlds. There are the noticeable differences yet its mostly a matter of value.

Why was the 40cal story bleeped?

[@CreamboiActual]

I wonder if it’s because the g22 was a CAG specific pistol program. I think Larry Vickers talked about the g22 briefly in his video on special ops pistols.

[@Scott_Buchanan]

@@CreamboiActualI remember that, they even had .40 cal double stack 1911’s, they didn’t last long because of all the problems

[@williamryan9195]

I am surprised he didn't go on a deep hate rant on the Beretta 92 and only complained about the locking block issue that was resolved with the M9A1 and the understanding of correct, compatible ammo as well as basic care and maintenance procedures. It doesn''t help throwing new locking blocks into an old, abused service pistol that is worn out of spec with original recoil springs.

[@AndyCigars]

Great stuff. Glock 19 for chilly weather, Glock 43x for short shorts. Prima!

[@BlackTridentOfficial]

[@Scott-lz3pp]

I have 4 Beretta 92 series pistols, and have never had a problem. My first one was actually a 92S, an early model that had the mag release at the bottom of the grip. I bought it used, and have put at least 5000 rounds through it, with only one malfunction (a failure to eject a handloaded round; a "stovepipe"), which I honestly don't think should count.

He said "both eyes open up" with a red dot. Personally, Ive always shot iron sights on a handgun with both eyes open. I know some people don't... like my dad for example, but I've always wanted to make sure I keep situational awareness.

[@foundationrepair5161]

Yep, just point & shoot and if you present the pistol correctly, have the correct grip you will it whrre your looking...

[@anonymousbosch9265]

In 1999 I was on a c130 in a web next to a SEAL LT and asked about caliber and he said 9mm all day and it’s hard to argue with a couple in your face. Me as a young airman was convinced without hesitation. I think it was Beretta M9’s at the time

Love the G19 but as a small person (5'6" 160lbs small hands) I found it hard to carry concealed all day. My EDC is the Ruger LCP Max. Yes, 380 ACP but easy to get multiple rounds off. Ten yards learn to point shoot. Find out where your natural point of aim is and find what twiks you need to make to hit center of mass. Of course if you get to shoot 10,000 rounds a week on the government expense that might change your approach.

[@BagsEsquire]

Just grabbed my coffee, great timing!!

[@OklaBoondocks]

The 19 and 17 are definitely good weapons whether you like them or not. They are reliable and accurate for their purpose. My first issued Glock was gen 1 in 1989. I was skeptical at first but it proved itself. It replaced our issue SW 65s. I’d still feel well armed with a 65 today too. I’m a 45 guy so I also carried the Browning/Sig 220 which was a excellent and reliable weapon but the heel mag release caused issues rubbing on the patrol car seat and would inadvertently release me mag at times so I was constantly checking it every time I’d get out of the car. I then went to a SW 645 which was another fine reliable weapon but it was definitely big and couldn’t carry off duty comfortably. For that I had an Sig 225. I then went to a Colt Double Eagle, very different but was a tack driver and never had issues with it. I settled mainly on my 645 and Colt govt most of the time. Toward the end of my career I switched to a Beretta 96 in 40 cal due to the caliber being very popular at the time and seemed a good round to have a little more rounds in the mag than 45 and bigger bullet than 9mm. Ammunition has come a long way since then and I feel way more comfortable with a 9mm with the current modern rounds. I’ve pondered what ONE firearm Id grab if I could only take one and I’ve decided it would be one of my 9mm’s with the exact reasoning they stated, no matter where you go you can get 9mm. Good video.
