    I was actually about to get to he m17 and you made up my mind not to. The Beretta is obviously the best one here



  2. 𓀐𓂸 on March 1, 2023 at 2:30 am

    The drop safe issues were fixed like 5 years ago, long before the m18 came out, why are you still talking about it..?



  3. Adrian Chavarria on March 1, 2023 at 2:31 am

    Sig had a recall there drop safe now even the regular 320 and especially the m18&17 why would the military adopt a gun that isn’t drop safe lmao 🤣



  4. denner tube on March 1, 2023 at 2:32 am

    You nailed this one.



  5. Brian Leonard on March 1, 2023 at 2:33 am

    Why not get both? 🤷



  6. DRAGONWAR on March 1, 2023 at 2:34 am

    I will take my M9A4 all day every day and twice on Sundays.



  7. nycupperes on March 1, 2023 at 2:40 am

    The issue with the early M9 magazines were the government went with the lowest bidder and they came with a rough texture finish. This was a trap for sand and dirt, any civilian mags wouldn’t have this issue.



  8. Wall on March 1, 2023 at 2:41 am

    Sig’s lineup is so confusing I don’t even know what’s there Main compact gun is it the Sig P320 idek



  9. AJ on March 1, 2023 at 2:42 am

    I’d rather have 2 M9s than one M18



  10. Scott Parr on March 1, 2023 at 2:44 am

    Great review! In a world where striker fired pistols seem to be taking over, it is nice to see some love for the DA/SA Beretta. Excellent comparisons! I have two 92s and I would love to get an M9A4.



  11. Chandler Barter on March 1, 2023 at 2:48 am

    I love the M9a4, I just ordered a Trijicon rmr type 2 for it.



  12. elNastyBoy1988 on March 1, 2023 at 2:50 am

    I’m looking at the m9 as my first gun. Thank you for this awesome reviews



  13. Reel Steel Angler on March 1, 2023 at 2:50 am

    Beautiful gun. I once owned a PX4 Storm and I swore off Berettas after that. Perhaps I should reconsider.



  14. weshaire on March 1, 2023 at 2:50 am

    Beretta all day for me, picking up the M9A4 next week.



  15. selçuk uçar on March 1, 2023 at 2:52 am

    Ben türküm istanbul dan yazıyorum İngilizcem yok çeviri ile videolarınızı zevkle seyrediyor size teşekkür ediyorum.. bir sorum olacak tek bir model seçme hakkınız olsa para probleminiz olmasa hangi silah modelini taşımak için tercih ederdiniz… Sizce revolver silahlar guvenilirmi saglammi uzun seneler için tercih edilir mi cokk tşk ederim



  16. James T on March 1, 2023 at 2:53 am

    I want both. 😂



  17. Alex F on March 1, 2023 at 2:54 am

    The beretta is obviously the better gun… who cares about price when your life’s on the line. The government creates money out of thin air and puts a value u it anyway so why not just go with the better option?



  18. SLi- Fox on March 1, 2023 at 2:56 am

    Out of all of my pistols, I continue to go for my 96a1. I think I might put some cash down for the m9a4.



  19. No Ma'am on March 1, 2023 at 2:57 am

    I own many Beretta handguns and several 1911’s and a couple of Rugers and I always choose my Beretta. My EDC is PX4 Storm Subcompact.



  20. Justin Knight on March 1, 2023 at 2:57 am

    I have a P320 that is the equivalent of the M18. It’s in 45 ACP. I know the Lord‘s caliber. I do love it but for 9 mm I have always wanted the Beretta and the newest version with the optics cut is screaming at me. Buy me…..you don’t need to pay the mortgage this month……



  21. Darrell Chitwood on March 1, 2023 at 2:57 am

    I have a M18 and am a relatively inexperienced shooter. What is your favorite after market lower to improve ergonomics?

  23. Dave Miller on March 1, 2023 at 2:59 am

    They fix the drop issues a long time ago, and Sig 320 was popular way before the military deal..



  24. Jim liu on March 1, 2023 at 3:00 am

    is the beretta combat hold or center hold?



  25. Lorenzo Garcia on March 1, 2023 at 3:01 am

    What type of outlawing ya doing?….. What a dumb tag



  26. BAMUZ on March 1, 2023 at 3:03 am

    3:16 right there ( I’ll preface this with I’m BRAND NEW to owning a pistol )
    When you rack the m18 back, it didn’t lock
    Can you explain why?
    I bought an m18 and anytime I “rack” it, it locks back

    Are you not pulling it all the way back or is mine malfunctioning?

    Anybody with knowledge on this is more than welcome to chime in! Thanks in advance!

    SUPER..



  29. Grizley Brown on March 1, 2023 at 3:05 am

    Sorry if someone already asked this but what silencer do you use with your M9A4?



  30. Greenbud Kelly on March 1, 2023 at 3:05 am

    Good objective review, thank you



  31. iamlilzyrio on March 1, 2023 at 3:07 am

    Took mine out this weekend and man about 220+ rounds thru it no failure I’m not to shocked I own other sigs but man m18 being lighter than the beretta m9a4 I think it has the edge m18 being a compact just amazing!!!!!



  32. Edysin Simon on March 1, 2023 at 3:07 am

    The 92FS/M9A3/4 all day, every day.



  33. Manfred Wise on March 1, 2023 at 3:08 am

    I have an M9A4~$999
    and a AXG Pro~$1100

    M9A4 is the better gun.

    Ive shot both the ragged out issued M9s and M18s.
    Ragged out M9 is the better gun

    But from a carry perspective the M18 is more comfortable for all day but I wont cry over caring the M9.



  34. taters yj on March 1, 2023 at 3:12 am

    $1000-1500 vs $500, sounds like your using new price on beretta vs used price on the sig



  35. Peyton Thornburgh on March 1, 2023 at 3:13 am

    I just got my M9A4 Centurion a couple of months ago and I absolutely love it. It always makes me smile when I shoot it!



  36. Greenbud Kelly on March 1, 2023 at 3:13 am

    The normal M9 or 92 FS is available for about $650. The stainless version is $1,500.



  37. Adrian Chavarria on March 1, 2023 at 3:17 am

    Sig had a recall if you didn’t know lmao 🤣



  38. Wall on March 1, 2023 at 3:19 am

    A writer should make one of the M9 polymer frame



  39. Fugettaboutit on March 1, 2023 at 3:21 am

    Hi Honest Outlaw….I have yet to hear back from you or see any corrections on the erroneous part about all current P320’s not being drop-safe, which I detailed in a comment on 5/2. Please read it again if necessary and offer a response, as it’s important that untrue information about any gun’s safety isn’t perpetuated, even unintentionally. Thanks much.



  40. FreedomRangerPhillips99 on March 1, 2023 at 3:21 am

    Vp9 is a big contender to these, out shoots my 19x in every aspect. Love my 19x though carry every day, today with it I got 3 in groups at 50 ft but the vp9l new first shots did that at 70 ft and consistently got bullseyes on 2 in targets at 25 ft



  41. Ron Smith on March 1, 2023 at 3:21 am

    I love the M9, and the M9A4 looks amazing. It would make a nice house gun. The M9 is inherently reliable and accurate. Little known fact, the Beretta is a direct descendant from the Walter P38. The M17 isn’t my favorite gun. It has its’ pros and cons, but I’d rather grab a G17 or M&P9.



  42. Brian Feeney on March 1, 2023 at 3:21 am

    M9A4 …… FERRARI – SMOOTH Function !!!!
    Sights give me Cross-Eye Domince Fits !!!!
    Happy I tried at the Gun Shop, vs ordering one online !!!! Sad it doesn’t work for me, but Happy I didn’t throw the money away. Thanks for ALL Your Content Chris !!!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
    ✨🙏🏻💫



  43. Sam on March 1, 2023 at 3:24 am

    I have ZERO interest in the 320 anything. M17/18 included. I drool over the M9A4.



  44. Travis Wigal on March 1, 2023 at 3:24 am

    I just bought them all 🤷‍♂️



  45. impactguns2 on March 1, 2023 at 3:24 am

    Price is the only reason SIG received the contract. The testing to prove if the Glock or the SIG was superior was never completed.



  46. Christian Grest on March 1, 2023 at 3:24 am

    Solid comparison between these pistols. I had a P320 that blew up right after the trigger recall was performed…on the second mag no less with an OOB discharge. I also had the M17 for a couple of years, but sold it. Just never cared for it. Much prefer my Glock 19X and more recently the M9A4. Never had any complaints of the M9 when serving either.



  47. blue falcon on March 1, 2023 at 3:24 am

    The military didn’t even look at the m9. They wanted a polymer striker fired pistol. They chose wrong. Long live the betteta. King of guns..



  48. FreedomRangerPhillips99 on March 1, 2023 at 3:24 am

    I subscribed to your channel yesterday but I just had to subscribe again for whatever reason



  49. Star Wars Games on March 1, 2023 at 3:26 am

    The M9 was excellent. I have no idea why they wasted all that money. The military spent all that money and basically nothing changed…also why would you spend all that money to get no benefit when your pistol isn’t even your primary arm?! It’s just a total waste.



  50. Osborne on March 1, 2023 at 3:27 am

    I think my man may be fanboying a little too hard for Beretta 😂
