I bought my first Grand Power about 4 months ago, p11, I carried a Browning HiPower in service and purchased firearm similar to it, mostly Tanfoglio brand, which are excellent, but shooting the p11 won me over, to the happiness of my Son-in-law, ( Army Veteran ), and my grandson, active duty Marine, who now own the Tanfoglios. I am looking at get another Grand Power, waiting to see how the new rotating barrel system on the 23k series. I do run 4in barrels 9mm or a 5.7x28 firearm also, they are both my main carry, mostly the 5.7, because nothing like 20rd , which my daughters can handle easy. I am still a hammer man, was hoping for a decocker model.

Good review. My opinion only, the PDP line and the SA Echelon are the two best sub-$1k production pistols on the market today. There are a number of reasons they are not both more popular I suppose, and I think it has a lot to do with habits, ie unwillingness to try something new. I’ve worked with a lot of folks who will not even give a second look to anything but Glock for example. Not knocking Glocks, but they are truly missing out on some great pistols.

As an Kimber 1911 owner and fanboy I guess, I was exited with the release of this new product. Little did I realize how good it was.I have several guns of this ilk, but whenever I go out to the range, or just go out on business, this goes with me,I could not be more satisfied. GREAT JOB KIMBER!

I have multiple nines, 2 thirty-eights, and one military spec 45. I like 380's of this size, and plan to get the Cheetah 80x soon primarily for home defense. I live in an apartment and the .380 offers adequate protection while somewhat reducing the risk of over penetration into another residence. This looks like a fine gun. I just have the 92x Centurion and am hooked😔. The 80x can be found online for 599 or so, and I want the pair. Less over penetration potential and faster follow-up shots are MY justification for paying higher ammo prices.😂 I also hope to pick up a Bodyguard 2.0 for pocket carry I guess I am going all in on .380. I also prefer not putting an optic on a carry gun. I think history has proven that gadgets are optional. This Girsan and possibly a small offhand light for dark conditions is all that is needed for self defense.

Nice looking pistol. Do you have any thoughts on the Bersa AR platform ? I've shot the Bersa Thunder 380 and enjoyed it. The Bersa name is iconic, we're looking forward to any new firearms being released by Bersa. Maybe they will invite you to your there firearms facility ? Thank you for providing the information. I'm definitely going to do some research on Bersa s product line later today. As always we wish you and Teya a great day 😄🙏

I really like the looks of this pistol and may well order one. I spent my gun money for July & August last night on a Bul Armory Axe C Cleaver but I will be following Bersa USA closely going forward. Bersa has always offered attractive, inexpensive pistols during my lifetime and I have actually shot one of their .380ACP "Walther Clone" guns years ago. Thanks for bringing their new line of 1911s to my attention.

I reckon that most folks aren't old enough to remember the so-so Bersa of yesteryear, and don't have a preconceived bias.

Good morning from the Helderberg mountains of New York State

Bersa makes a decent vudge friendly wealon only that the sfter marker support is limited as well as OEM support only being Talon Armament and American Armory & Arsenal Lyons, IN.

From my perspective, it's probably a good idea. I always hear good things about Bersa pistols. They have always peaked my interest, but I have not purchased because of mag price and availability, or lack thereof. If they can produce a quality 1911 that can use universal mags, it's probably a win.

My issue with Bersa products (except the Thunder 380) has always been parts and mag availability. The TPR series is amazing, but mags are rare, and extra parts are worse. For the 1911 platform, that just isn't an issue. I think this is a good move by Bersa. Nice looking 1911, I think.

Excited about it and even interested in it.

I have handguns of almost every size. About the only thing I don't have is a "huge" hand cannon such as a Desert Eagle or .460 S&W. I find the most enjoyment from shooting my full-size 1911s. BTW - I just ordered an Axe C Cleaver last night as a Birthday present to myself 😀

Graham, Maybe Im lucky but I have about 1500 thru mine since purchase in Sept 23 with zero issues, I just added the ext mag plates I bought and fits fine Sir

I sold the Glock 19x and bought a Q100 Mk23. While the Glock carried concealed really well, the Q100 is a full size and I carry it with no problem. I can even use P1, Q1 and X-calibur holsters. And the shooting? Compared to the trigger on the Glock, the Q has a deluxe trigger.

Thank you again for sharing information on this particular pistol. Definitely a nice looking pistol. Regarding your armory setup. We think it looks great. The lighting is good as well. If the lighting is unpleasant for you, adjust it until your comfortable. Have a great day 😄🙏

Thank you great job

That sure is a handsome pistol.

Admittedly, I was one who ignored the article. After all, the 1911 market is pretty crowded. But it sounds like it was my loss. Gonna circle back and give it a read

Sounds like my first fiance'...😂😂😂

Just came across your site...truly appreciate your no-nonsense approach. Thank you and God bless.

Looks like a great gun. I agree; there’s pain, excruciating pain, and there’s stepping on a Lego in your bare feet! 😂

I tried that trigger in the past at the shop where I normally go to get my toys. I didn't go for that gun because it had a threaded barrel and so far, I know this may sound strange, but I never managed to find a gun with the threaded barrel that I can shoot accurately. I don't know why. This is in my next shopping spree already and this video confirmed what I was thinking. I have several Canik, none of them fits my hand as well as this PDP. That grip is phenomenal and I look forward to put thousands of rounds with it on the range. Thank you as always for your amazing videos.

My EDC and absolutely love it. They did have issues with the first batch but then the issue was resolved after that.

Ive carried my MC9 since March'23 and put 17.k rounds down it. The last about 10k of that with a comp. I know many have had aome issues, but mine has been incredibly reliable. And comp'd its amazing. The flattest gun ive shot

Mine was great for about 500 rounds then became highly unreliable with failure to feed with all types of ammo. It fails to feed at random with ball ammo and issued off duty hollow point ammo with all magazines and in a clean weapon. This thing is hot garbage, if you want to die in the gun fight carry this. 👎

Zero issues with my MC9 and keeping shots on an 8 inch steel plate at 35 yards is easy.

Was looking at both this mc9 as well as the new bodyguard 2.0

Mine is working great! It definitely is in my EDC rotation.

I own it and I love it. had a few hiccups when new, mag wouldn't drop. fixed it easily. I put a holosun 407 k green dot on it. will eat anything unlike the sc 9, which is very picky. Been waiting for you to review it. Thanks

Picked one of these up last year along with 4 more mags. UrbanCarry makes a great IWB holster for it. Have well over 500 rounds down it and it's still going despite RIA saying to change the spring after 500 rounds. Works great, fun to shoot, easy to control (for me anyway) and have carried it quite a few times.

2:41 Yep. That's me. I ribbed a chunk of skin off my thumb and droplets of blood were everywhere on the floor. I learned some lessons the hard way. LOL

Thanks for the video

OG is fun to watch, good guy

I've always thought that, by adding an accessory rail to the front of this small pistol, the room in the trigger guard was very small. Thoughts?

Grant, which trigger do you prefer. Grand Power Q, or the Canik? Thanks.🤘

So, that's why I trust you is your reviews. GB....I like you even more. Your wife has great feedback too.😊😊😊😊😊. You get 5 happy face review. Out of 5.

For the money it properly can't be beat 🤔. Unfortunately one has to question most of these KZfaq firearms channel s. Did they alter the firearm so it no longer functions properly ? Are they looking to increase views / subscriber's ? You're KZfaq channel has never caused one to pause and wonder. You're correct about using a firearm in self defense. My husband's co-worker has been in 5 such situations 3 when another L.E. agent was involved in the shooting, the other two where he was the L.E. agent who shot in self defense. All of the incidents were quite different. You're KZfaq channel is by far the best 😄. You're honesty is commendable. We wish you and Teya a great day 😄🙏

I found your discussion about individuals experiencing a combat situation and each describing it differently hauntingly familiar. I used to train warehouse personnel on the use of computerized shipping systems and experienced having students describe the training differently many times. The Mete MC9 seems like a good CCW pistol, but it is not one I will select. Mainly because I already have more than enough CCW handguns. The trigger which everyone gushes over on the Mete SFt was horrendous to me for the purpose I intended, but it would have been very good for a defensive handgun. I suspect the Mete MC9 shares that trigger.

One of the pistols I have been keeping my eyes on … And yes I agree about certain opinions about firearms of You Tube .. especially if its a influencer .. alot of failures are caused by the shooter .. or the free ammo they are blasting… So many influencers.. run a pistol dry .. personally I clean and lube my pistol first .. I load up my mags for a few days and let them sit … I will work the slide manually for awhile.. around 10mins or less Then .. I go to the range .. and its the only pistol I take ( besides my carry pistol) I have had great luck with some pistols that have received a bad rap … Influencers are influenced..

How does this compare to a shield plus or hellcat or p365?

Nice carry option. Thanks for covering this weapon. Thanks for all you do! ♠️🎩🎯🎱🇺🇸🏁🇮🇱🇺🇦🔱🌻💮🌼🏵️🌸🏴‍☠️🏹

What is that handgun called and where can I see it in action?

I feel like for the price, I'm going shadow 2 or the new M&P pro comp if a comp isn't making you nervous about moving up a class

I just started carrying mine yesterday. VNSH holster for now. I would like to try the teir 1.
