Since Reeves is a lawyer, spewing BS comes more naturally

I like them both, they both have different ways of entertaining.

Reeves is an Arfcommer so he does get bonus points for that.

Getting splattered in the face with mud every time a pistol fires will do that to a guy.

I can’t believe how well the 1911 did.

I love my M&P. Fantastic shooter.


Same here.  While USGI 1911's have always been pretty reliable in poor environments, modern built versions have always seemed to be built on the "tight" side.  Tight and mud (or sand... or ice... or whatever) is a recipe for trouble.

This seems like a good time to remember that both Garand Thumb and Kommie Karl did rifle mud tests, and that the AKs failed both of their mud tests while the ARs passed.

It turns out keeping garbage out of your gun helps it run more reliably. Who knew?

I think these torture tests are always "fun" to watch and try to predict outcomes. But just for the entertainment value. Scientifically there's zero value. Too small of a sample size, and the testing isn't controlled enough to be of any scientific value.

Fun nonetheless.

Which is why the army tests specify the grit and type of sand and the amount of water and the size of the container. It’s all very boring. But repeatable.

The way of the world. It's not about the information in the videos anymore. Everyone needs to dissect irrelevant minutia.

Don't care what he did or does in his personal life, no different than any big time celebrity. Do I care when Robert DeNiro talks about guns or Covid? Nope, entertain me you fucking clown.

I learned that there is a lot of postings made by people who do not take their firearms into the field.

I use shotguns in freezing rain, mud and dirt while duck hunting.

Cedar trees are very hard on firearm operations.

I carry Ruger .357 as a side arm. Big pigs where I hunt.

Best to know the limitations of you firearms.

I was joking when I posted - had only gotten that far in the video.

M&Ps have rebates going on now, if I didn't already have 3...

Not a fan of the 'suppressor height sights' on the Optics Ready model, may replace them at some point. The grips are uber-aggressive; I know I have soft hands but wow, I don't like carrying it AIWB because it rubs me the wrong way.

No, don't own one.  But any real test would need a lot of random samples of a particular model.  These kinds of tests are fun to watch but don't prove anything.

As a HK fan boy, I was surprised (alittle bit) the mk23 didn't go further.  But I also kinda figured being a hammer fired gun, it was 50/50 if stuff was going to get in the hammer and cause a malfunction.   That being said the nighthawk surprised me the most.  I figured any/all 1911's weren't going to work.

Inb4 the M&P is "rediscovered" and now costs more than a Glock

I do want to pick one up one of these days, but I always pass on the recent fire sales because I had just bought something prior, like there was just a few places yesterday selling Old stock 2.0s with the hinged trigger for around 300 bucks after rebate, and here I am just finishing putting together a glock clone after black Friday lol

Naw, it's more like people who already had and liked M&P's said "look!  Validation!"  I own an M&P 10mm and I like it a lot, though it's not my EDC.  I like the trigger on my PDP Compact better than the M&P or I would have picked up an M&P 9mm.

I chose Glock because of the availability of quality parts. I don't need or want to Gucci it out, I just want to have easy access to spare parts.

Then I trained with it, and still do.

All that matters is that you pick a quality gun that you shoot well enough, then TRAIN until you are proficient, then TRAIN more to stay proficient

The M&P 2.0 has almost identical dimensions to the Glock 19 except that IMO the grip feels way better in the hand and it points naturally to me. The M&P is slightly slimmer. I carried a Glock 19 for years but as soon as the S&W 2.0 compact came out I sold it.  

I the M&P is heavier because it uses a stainless slide.
