Stoeger STR-9 MC: Better than Glock 48? Initial thoughts!!

Stoeger semi automatic pistols seem to be hard to find, in our local market at least! After reviewing this line of product, we have started to discover the possible reason for lack of stock. EVERYONE wants one and needs one.

I don't feel you need to apologize for anything you do. I glean quite a bit of info and they seem fine to me. Nobody is forced to watch. And the reviews are positive.

[@GSquaredTactical]

Yeah we are hard on ourselves. Honestly we never thought we would get monetized much less have 20k subscribers because we aren’t theatrical and tactical just simple and mostly stuff you can read. We just try to have fun and enjoy ourselves and we hope we can help someone make a solid decision because not everyone can buy ore than one gun so it matters. Thus the reason we will never lie or promote something we wouldn’t 1000% buy and trust for ourselves and our family. We appreciate your support

[@v.german11b]

My personal experience with Stoeger is that it is a fine, reliable, accurate handgun. But my very favorite model is the *Stoeger STR-9S Combat.* This is one of the best and criminally overlooked combat handguns. Great review! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@GSquaredTactical]

We just done a review on the combat version. It should be up soon

[@v.german11b]

@@GSquaredTactical I am assuming you approve of it.

[@GSquaredTactical]

Yes we did have a small issue shooting suppressed be overall love it

[@v.german11b]

@@GSquaredTactical Most handguns have issues shooting with a suppressor.

[@GSquaredTactical]

We’ve found that to be the case, occasionally we find one that doesn’t need an extra recoil spring.

Going puck one up today. At 350 with 50 mail in rebate why not with 11 andc13 round mag. I have str 9c and really like it. You have any info are these compatable with sig p365 night sights.

Not sure about the sights, but let us know how you like it. I’m sure you won’t regret it especially at that price. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already

[@dylanowens3173]

I was able get str9 mc no optic cut in Colorado for $350, the over hyped canik mete mc9 was sold out and marked up to $500. And the iwi masada slim $450 was also sold out. So far the stoeger has done really well and I think is the best budget carry gun out there , way better than Taurus gx4. The only new gun I'd take over stoeger is the iwi masada slim, very high reviews and takes cz mags.

[@GSquaredTactical]

Nice I like the Masada Slim a lot.

[@justdafax]

@@GSquaredTactical which one do you like more masada slim vs the stoeger str9-mc? also what is the recoil like in comparrison?

[@GSquaredTactical]

Recoil is less on the slim but it’s also larger not really comparable much to the MC9

[@justdafax]

@GSquaredTactical so which is more accurate and which do u like more?

[@GSquaredTactical]

The slim but again the slim isn’t really a MC

[@settleschris1965]

Like to see a comparison between this , masada slim and Sar9sc. They do have an night sights, optic ready and 3 mags version.

Just picked one up, model numbers just means which ones come with which options. Mine has the 13 round mag and two eleven round mags, also is optic cut and has fron trition night sights. Picked it up for $429 snd filled out my $50 rebate yesterday. That took like 5 minutes on their website' i put 50 tounds through so far and very impressed. I think i like these guns alot.

[@WestGeorgiaProductions]

Also I want to add. ALL of my mags required a speed loader. Id honestly say that's the only thing I don't like about it.

[@faxthefacts5666]

Something is wonky with the magazines and the speed loader. I got mine brand new(STR-9MC) and have the same issue with the bullets getting stuck at an angle....thats my only gripe with this handgun. I tossed the speedloader as I have a feeling it's going to mess up the spring constantly getting bullets stuck at an angle. I load all 10 manually, it just feels safer.

[@GSquaredTactical]

Yeah and it never really got easier. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already

[@bjohnson886]

Just bought an MC a few days ago and the springs are a bitch to deal with but I've read that if you load to capacity and let sit for a few days to put pressure on the springs, it gets a bit easier after that. Just use the load assist it comes with until the mags are fully broken in. I'm currently doing that now and it's helping. Also, after a few days, empty them to decompress and reload and let sit again.

[@GSquaredTactical]

@bjohnson886 I’ve heard it doesn’t work and destroys the mags but I’ve done it for years and it 100% works and I’ve never had an issue doing it. Congrats on the purchase and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already

I've shot well over 3,000 rounds on this gun, and it worked flawlessly. I had one stove pipe on my first shots, but that may have been the ammo or just the break in.

Thoughts vs the Canik MC9?

[@GSquaredTactical]

I know there was a lot of folks claiming to have issues with the MC9 from Canik. However, if you will watch the 4 or 5 videos we have up you will see that we had zero issues (not even one) with the 2 we own. So in working order the Canik is hands waaay down better than this one.

Can you compare it with Canik Mc9

[@GSquaredTactical]

We had to turn this gun back in to Stoeger but I can say that for me anyway the MC9 felt better in the had and the Stoeger seemed to handle recoil better and for me was more accurate. The magazine thing was getting on my nerves but other than that really loved both of them. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already

[@gloriamaletta8667]

If your referring to the magazine thing as the MC9 magazines not dropping freely rap magazine with masking tape rap it 3 times as tight as possible just below the magazine catch cut insert magazine in 3/4 of the way in just below magazine catch heat around grip with a blow dryer on high heat until good and warm leave magazine inserted let it cool repeat the same process heating around grip with blow dryer until good and warm let cool then try magazines bet they drop now like butter

Both of my Stoeger‘s have chrome mags. They look just like the mags from the Springfield hellcat. Just saying.

[@GSquaredTactical]

Just saying what? Clearly you can see from our video ours aren’t chrome or stainless and few mags are chrome if any it’s polished aluminum. Thanks for watching and commenting and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already

My STR9MC also had two chrome mags in the box.

[@GSquaredTactical]

It’s not chrome if it isn’t black then it’s polished aluminum not chrome. Thanks for watching.

[@Iceberg82]

I believe the color of the mags maybe cause where he lives… 10rd mags cause of needing to be compliant. Black with orange follower are 10s… steel ones are depending on the actual mag count

[@GSquaredTactical]

Right I get that but it’s crazy to me how people are prone to argue with you when you can clearly see in the video ours are black and what need do we have to lie about it. Even more why does it even matter lol. Thanks for watching and please be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already
