Do you like guns? I like guns...sometimes. Feel free to follow along as we tackle guns, both known and obscure, without political divides and "sponsorships".
A excellent video on the S&W 442 38 2"barrel and the Ruger lcr 38 a lot of police carry the S&W 442 38 2"barrel much better than the Ruger lcr for a backup gun 💯👍
Don't let yourself trick yourself into making yourself nervous for you man just remember that everybody is here watching this came here cuz they felt like taking time out of their day to watch you they already gave you the thumbs up by showing up If later on they feel like they didn't make the best use of their time and their lives they're probably not going to actually complain to the people that wasted all the time in their lives they might complain to people that made stuff like videos they watched but they watch those videos because they decided they wanted to see that person and hear what they had to say So that person did their job they sold them.... I wish there was more like this out there thanks a heap
We recently ordered a p32, simply because this Walther is a bit pricey, and a bit heavy, for what we looking for...nothing wrong with the style, or the manual of arms, but over 8 ounces heavier...as seniors we can attest weight will stop a freight train, or discourage carrying everyday...i'd love to own one, just because I do like the styling, but practical first...
I know what the manufactures and stores will do to gouge us and well look at those prices of buckshot and slug loads! Hopefully you were smart to stock up on reloading supplies BEFORE communist china unleashed their virus on us. I bought a 50 dollar Mec600jr and made sure to stock up on Little Gun powder, 3 thousand 3/8" chromium steel ball bearings, a thousand WAA410 wads, and a thousand 209 primers. I use 16gn of powder and x3 ball bearings in each load.
Would like to find one,,yea the trigger sucks but fixable. Bench rest techniques would tighten the groups..fit and function are what counts,,,,thanks for. A. Good review….
@@terrydawson2239 I looked up the current Beretta 80x Cheetah. It’s only available in .380. The only 32 they offer is the little Tomcat. I think the Walther has a little more personality than the Beretta
@@BrokenBarBox The 80"s series Beretta Cheetah (Models 81, 82 [.32acp], 84 & 85 [.380acp] specifically. The barrels and magazines can be swapped. The are commonly available as surplus pistols for around $350.00
@@anthonytripp2251 Whether the larger (or smaller) beaver tail makes sense largely depends on the shooter’s hands. Although I really enjoy my PPK 380 and PP 7.65, and carry them often, their hammers do occasionally bite my large hand(s) if I’m not deliberate with my grip on their compact frames. The slide can bite as well, though less frequently in my experience. If I could add just another 1/4” to the beaver tail, those things would cease to be issues. Other people I’ve practiced with, who have more average sized hands, have had no issues at all. Regardless, the size, durability, concealability, and other aspects of the PP/PPK more than make up for that minor shortcoming. I prefer appendix, but pocket carry has been no problem for me, though I am a larger than average person.
I love my two PPKs and my PP. But, it's hard to call the 32 ACP (aka 7.65) "new", since that's what both the PP and PPK were designed for, just shy of 100 years ago, with minimal changes made since. They really are absolute tack drivers if handled properly, easy to get follow-up shots and all-around pleasant to shoot (practice). Would strongly recommend to those that appreciate a small and sturdy pistol or those who just want something smoother than the typical 9mm. 32 ACP is a real improvement over the 380 variant - at least IMO. Enjoy! Yes, the 32 obviously has less punch than the “almighty” 9mm. I’ll leave it to others to debate the ballistics. For me, a good pistol on your person is far better than 100 “better” pistols locked up at home (because they’re too large or too much of a handful for some people to operate well). Be safe out there.
I can see why James Bond has carried that gun for lots of years. It's small, compact, not light but not heavy, and it's quite accurate. Perfect firearm for undercover missions.
@@anthonytripp2251 True. Talking to others, I’ve found that it can be a love it or hate it pistol for that reason. I have a number of good options in my rotation but the PP (basically the PPK’s fraternal twin) is the first one that truly felt “right” in my hand. So, I’m in the love it camp, I guess. That said, I’m still a bit torn as to whether I like or dislike the heavy DA pull. It definitely gives me greater confidence that I won’t experience a negligent discharge - and prevention of that is something on which I place a very high value. At the same time, that first round just isn’t as fast or accurate as the ones that follow it, no matter how much you practice and/or how much you anticipate the effort required to pull the hammer back (in DA).
Kinda odd , its always been my experience that heavier , slower projectiles tend to hit higher at pistol ranges as they are spending a bit longer in the barrel as the muzzle rises due to recoil . Cool little pistol , thanks for sharing.
I've had both forever. The BX25 magazines really make the 10/22 shine. Well, not here in CA, not yet. But I've run many, many thousands of rounds thru each. Zero complaints with either. I did recently buy a unique feeder for the 60, basically a slim carousel of nine 15 round enclosed tubes designed to dump the ammo into the magazine tube, made by LUDEX. Dry testing worked great, haven't taken to the field yet, but should work just fine and in several seconds, not only for the 60, but also my Winchester lever gun. Thanks for this comparison!
I never understood why the LWS .32 has 6 shots but the smaller .25 only has 6 as well when you could easily fit 8 rounds in the magazine due to the smaller size of the caliber .
I have 2 pk380, one is the first versions and the 2nd is a later model. I bought the first one and traded a Beretta APX for the other....both shoot super easy with low recoil....like shooting a 22 and the slide is super easy to rack too charge the the firearm, my wifey and daughter love them....ima kimber and Springfield armory XDs guy myself but have a collection of berettas, rugers, walthers. SW, one colt and one stoeger....the stoeger str C9mm is a nice budget friendly firearm....
Pretty little piece but mine shot a foot high at 25 yards. Made a small wooden ramp front sight and locktited it to the top barrel flat butted against the brass bead. Sorted.
There are two different models of what was called the 1862. You are thinking of the much more common Police model. The Pocket Navy is essentially the same gun but with an octagonal barrel and traditional lever. Not sure why they did this as it is more expensive. Tradition dies hard I guess.
I have both and hate the round butt on my 686 plus. The cylinder release bites my thumb with heavy loads. I wish the Pythons cylinder was slightly longer. It limits bullet selection. You can now get an Elliason rear sight from Kensight for the new Pythons.
I just found this channel. Its terrific content. subbed and liked. See you on the next one pal. p.s i dont know why other gun tubers dont put fabric over the ballistic jellies but its a good idea. it seems like common sense.
I prefer the 60 as it's slimmer to hold and is more accurate. However, that holds until there is a malfunction of some type. It is then the 10-22 shines because you only need to remove the mag, clear the problem and put the mag back in and go. That's also nice when hunting as you remove the mag, clear the chamber and case. At the next stop, put in the mag, chamber one , safety on and you are set again.
