@livennick9 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for watching bud. I normally use vedder holsters light tuck. Or galco combat master leather owb holsters. They are both great. As far as the comp vs regular I honestly couldn’t tell a difference. Some say they can but I will tell you one thing, the comp version is a lot louder and more pressure you can feel in your face from each shot. I personally like the non-comp version because of that plus you got a bit more velocity out of the longer barrel. Hope this helps bud.

Hi Pez and Livenick. I just picked one of these up about 3 weeks ago. I absolutely love the gun. I have a Holosun EPS Carry on it. I was at another site and heard someone mention Tenicor Holsters. I picked up the Certum for the Tac Ops. It has belt clips that IMO are fantastic. There is no way if you have them connected to your belt that the gun will come with it when pulled out. In fact it can ba a little bit of a PITA to get off but well worth the piece of mind. I also found out about PHLSTER Wedges for your holster. I ordered a set of those and had enough to do 3 holsters with left over. What a difference the wedges make. I highly recommend them!! BTW GREAT SHOOTING!!

I have the 23 gen 5 (slightly bad ergonomics imo and no accessories but I still shoot it extremely well. I find the recoil very comfortable and the moving parts and quality feel of the parts is 10/10) and the P365X macro. The normal 3.7” barrel. Its the same as the tacops just no magwell. I find the trigger and the ergonomics are 10/10 but the feel of the quality and the moving parts don’t feel as nice as the Glock. I wish I got the comp version. My wife has the P365XL Rose Comp, and I’d almost say the 30% reduced muzzle flip is somewhat modest. It almost feels like a solid 50%. Oh well. Guess I just have to be happy with the 7% increase in muzzle energy from the longer barrel 🤣🤣🤣🤣. I do find it kicks harder than the Glock despite the Glock being .40 S&W, and I shoot the Glock 23 better despite far preferring the grip angle on the Sig. My wife’s shoots like a .22 cuz of the comp. It really does make quite the substantial difference. Guess it’s cool to have options lol. And MAN is the 23 big and heavy compared to the Sig lol. Not sure if the 23 Gen 5 is at all thicker or heavier than whatever 19 you have, but they should be 99% identical in size and weight either way. I KNOW you are happy about that lol. Also, nice redneck heaven ;( wish I had a redneck heaven…

Yeah, I was gonna make one MACRO my carry & one my HD since "two is one"...but in the end, I just can't quit the CR920 (even though, at 620rds, I still don't fully trust it despite being 100%, since my first one had issues). I'm putting a PSA MICRO DAGGER slide on a 43X MOS frame to test that out--at 15+1, it'll be HD. But for carry, I switch between the CR920 and a tricked out LCP MAX ELITE (w/ 13rds of 380 FMJ). I'm in Florida though, and it's 90-100 degrees most of the year, so the MACRO was just a hair too long for me.

I watched your other video and you would not walk away from Glock reliably if this Sig didn’t impress you. That video is what made me trust Sig, cause before that i had 4 Glocks and only really liked them for their reliability and were easy to clean. They never felt great nor bad in my hand.
