We want to see Coch’s tactical underwear collection
Mark, do you a Jimmie Lowe? Think they called him the “rug”?
So glad you are an American
Hinya coch im not a military man but your info is interesting
Strong "Cool Uncle" vibes here Coch.
Desert Storm, saddest day had turn in my 1911 for an M-9, also had a Browning Hi Power that I felt was more the right size of a 9mm, bought a Marine Ka-Bar. Was an MP but never got the trip to the sand box, stayed at Ft Hood whole war.
I like your videos. You simple, clear, honest and real. Its refreshing to find a guy not flexing his ego in every video. You allow us to consider you ideas.
Thanks. I’ll be watching all your videos.

I am still a baretta fan boy. But because of the slide problem I decided to go with a grison M9 made in turkey. That solved the decocker problem. Along with slide
it probably depends on training doctrine, as we were encouraged to use pistols for room clearing in the 70s coz the FAL is so long & cumbersome all so you could suppress a pistol. Got to use the Browning HP & Cz 75.
You teach the G19 but won’t talk about it. Hmmm.
The magazine disconnect in the hi power is quite easy to remove. Great video. I love and own all these guns. Given these choices though, I’m probably going 226. Love your videos and presentation. Thank you for your service. You’re a real life American badass.
The first time I seen a M9 in the wild was with a SEAL PLT on float circa 87-88. Of course, all us Marines wanted to finger f#*k one since we know at some point they were headed to the fleet. That was also the first time I heard about the frame cracking apart and ripping some frog’s face off ( sea stories tend to be embellished with each telling). After awhile I tended to think the M9 frame story was an urban myth and after these many years finally heard from someone that actually knew the guy it happened to. Cheers!
What brand are your sunglasses? thx
I’m a big fan of the M1911, also like the High Power.
Thank you for your service
Thanks man.great video.
"Bog standard"
Definitely knocked about with some Brits 😂
What about a top notch pellet gun for the rabbits in the backyard? Just saying!
my (Army) first pistol was the 1911, then the M9, and M11. after I retired, I got an M17 Sig. I think the M17/ M18 is the best military pistol ever.
Good videos sir. I’m a fan, and now a subscriber.
A walk down memory RANGE. 😜
Canadians still use the Hi Power! Switching soon, but the standard sidearm has been the Hi Power since Napoleon time we believe!😂
Awesome video man!
The Beretta "G" models came about because of your same complaint from others about inadvertently switching to safe. It’s funny that you guys moved on to another gun, and outfits around the world simply asked Beretta for a decocker-only switch.
Please show us your wrist watch that you have in this video. Thanks.
Only 56 down votes? I don’t see how.
Question for Couch, What is the watch that you are wearing in this video. It looks like it has two watch heads ?
Buying hand guns can be addicting I justified buying a hand gun that I could Deer hunt with so I bought a S.W ,327 TRR8 Performance expensive shoots smooth .Then I said ok lets buy a Glock I ended up buying most of the family except one S.W, M.P I have been slacking no range shooting for a while . Great videos it’s getting me thinking about shooting and what to buy next ?
Love all of those…. i edc and shoot ipsc with a Briwning for over 30 years, never had issues (took the mag saftey out). Iv never been a fan of glock- the 3 safeties are its only good points in my experience.
The Browning High Power was also carried concealed (as a primary) by covert UK forces as late as 1988 in Operation Flavius, which was more of an assassination/SWAT style operation than a CoD style military operation where some IRA members were killed in Gibraltar. Lots of history with the High Power. I personally wouldn’t mind a Girsan P35 clone. Good price and come with a few different colors and grips.

Canada still uses the hi power
Great information…Navy 🇺🇸 1988-1994
Wisdom and humility…Shalom
It’s great to hear a man who actually used his firearms as a tool for our freedom and to save his ass in the real world. Thank you for your service and honesty.
I really like your no bullshit take on things . Thank you for your service.
Buenas noche, desde argentina ciudad de mar del plata espectacular explicación, felicitaciones!!👍🇦🇷👍
44 Magnum revolver Dirty Harry all the way so 80s that’s awesome
Coch and Dorr are probably the coolest, most professional presenters on YT.
I don’t think you’re going to see a difference in stopping power until it’s a difference of
.22 to 9mm
9mm to 357
357 to 44mag
And lastly 44 mag to 500mag
(Edit: i forgot about 10mm. So, 9mm to 10mm and 10mm to 357)
Maybe it’s the giant anchor, or the stubble, but Coch is my favorite crusty old salt on YouTube.
Love my Sig P229 in .357. I wore the first one out, it was 1st gen, then was issued the updated version – never had any issues with it. Then when I got out I bought the P229SAS model…absolutely love it.
The 92 and the high power are the most reliable
Only problem with the story is the Beretta slide doesn’t come on or off from the rear it goes on and off from the front and if it failed like that it would just fly off to the front ,I know I had a mod. 92D double action only. Opps sorry for spoiling your story.
On the Sig, “ I’d go to war with it right now”. Good enough for me.
you got something against the HK brand or something ?
Starting LE in 1988, issued the following in order:
Smith and Wesson .357(Mdl 686) , P226(9mm) , P228(9mm) , Sig P229(.357 Sig) , Glock 19 (9mm). Wonder why I am Sig biased? 2 agencies and 35 years later, looking forward to some peace and quiet👍
I always noticed in Beverly Hills Cop Eddie Murphy carried a browning high power. For some reason that’s what pops into my head.
Give me 10 minutes with my tools and that P35 Hi Power and I will make that magazine safety BS feature go away. Three options, remove a single spring a pin or best option, remove all remove of those mag safety parts.
