welcome back everybody clint here alec
00:14
here we're with classic firearms we've
00:15
got a video today
00:16
all about home defense calibers
00:20
04:36
sorry to all the fud boomers out there
what's the best for a pistol 45
00:23
or nine milli and uh yeah we're talking
00:26
about this
00:27
thick slow boy versus this kind of
00:31
speedy boy kind of speedy boy yeah
00:33
speedier boy speedier boy the ass for
00:35
sure
00:35
mine's really not super speedy but it's
00:37
not but it's faster than 45.
00:39
it is true so anyway there's been
00:42
there's always a debate
00:43
always it doesn't matter where you're at
00:45
now now the debate
00:46
actually is um you're just a larper if
00:49
you've never served you know what i mean
00:50
so i mean yeah weird flex i mean i'm
00:52
pretty sure there was a bunch of farmers
00:54
that really started this country and
00:56
they didn't wear a uniform but anyway
00:57
hey uh throwing it all out there
01:00
45 versus nine millimeter
01:03
now everybody knows that 45 acp is the
01:06
reason
01:06
why we won two world wars i mean that's
01:10
everybody knows that 45 is also the
01:12
reason we made 9 millimeter
01:16
i'm just saying yeah you're not wrong so
01:19
like i said there's always a debate and
01:20
in this situation here
01:22
every oh my god this i feel like it goes
01:25
on and on and on all the time
01:27
i feel like honestly i think it's
01:29
honestly kind of sad that we're having
01:30
this conversation because
01:32
realistically man anything that has a
01:35
semi-decent capacity
01:37
that is going to put rounds into someone
01:39
else that is entering your home
01:40
is probably going to be pretty good for
01:42
home defense unless it's shotgun which
01:44
we've covered
01:45
um and even if you don't have anything
01:48
else then yeah sure a shotgun would be
01:49
great but
01:50
comparatively like yes this either one
01:52
of these would be perfectly fine for
01:53
home defense yep and what we do have
01:55
today on the table is my fnx 45 tactical
01:57
because i love this gun
01:58
and this is the glock 19x which
02:02
i mean dude you know the ford serrations
02:05
they got it but they got it with the man
02:06
45. yeah you know and i was getting
02:08
ready to say it but you beat me to it
02:10
yeah i don't know why they didn't put
02:11
the forward solutions on here
02:12
that's the only basically one of the
02:14
only things that separates this from the
02:15
45
02:16
aside from the night science and the
02:17
coding and blah blah blah whatever but
02:20
i also uh don't know why
02:23
we're not being issued these in the
02:24
military and we got this weird sig ham
02:26
gun that
02:27
doesn't really it works as bad as well
02:30
as that reload did
02:32
anyway so in this situation here and
02:35
this is actually something that i've
02:36
said for a while and i'm gonna try to
02:38
do my best when it comes to arguing this
02:41
point
02:42
45 acp is better than nine millimeter
02:45
however
02:46
17 rounds of nine millimeters a whole
02:48
lot better yes then seven
02:50
rounds of 45 acp if we're talking about
02:52
a 1911 or eight rounds or if an extendo
02:55
10 rounds right yeah or yeah i think one
02:58
of the uh
02:59
there's a weird one out there that has
03:00
12 rounds yeah well there's the ones
03:02
what are the ones that we have though
03:03
they're like
03:04
20 30 rounds and it looks red oh the
03:05
drum yeah well yeah there's there's a
03:07
few of them but anyway
03:09
so the reason i say i think ultimately
03:11
45 acp is better than
03:13
9 mil is because you are getting that
03:14
terminal ballistic now granted
03:16
these are just standard fmj both of
03:18
these when you think about it
03:20
with hollow points or something along
03:22
those lines depending on the projectile
03:24
itself
03:24
can do some serious damage without
03:27
having to worry about over penetration
03:29
within close quarters or within a home
03:32
so in my mind 45 acp yeah that's a thick
03:35
fat boy that's for sure but when it does
03:36
hit it does have that
03:39
knock down power brother yeah that's
03:40
scientifically proven knock down power
03:42
you know what i mean
03:43
but i know it's it's hard really to
03:46
argue both of these because i mean i've
03:48
got multiples
03:49
of each platform yeah i they are both
03:52
nato cartridges so
03:54
i wasn't saying ammo is available yeah
03:57
but i know that's a that's a hard
03:58
subject for a lot of us right now
04:00
but it's it's coming apparently i think
04:02
remington is actually like doing
04:04
something to end
04:04
yeah the other day yeah wow interesting
04:07
i thought you guys were like
04:08
yeah guess not guess not so anyway but
04:12
i personally love 45 acp this right here
04:15
with a flashlight on it
04:16
is my bedside gun yeah along with my
04:19
mark 18. yeah mine's glock 19. yeah
04:21
standard 19 not the 19 yes but
04:22
yeah standard 19. so why do you go for
04:24
the 19
04:26
for me i mean honestly like i said
04:28
standard 191 i mean they are
04:30
probably one of the most reliable yeah
04:32
pistols on the market i don't think
04:34
anyone's debating that at this point
04:35
yeah yes
