My first gun I bought was a Ruger Security 9. I love it still have it. I wanted a Glock 19x. I got the Ruger because it was cheaper than the Glock. I didn't have enough for the Glock. But it works and shoots great.

Doom Father TM says:

I thought by the thumbnail this was a Eric weight loss journey video

Lance Sharpe says:

Josh needs a 'what not to do on camera' 101 session – just keeps drumming his hands down on the top, very distracting. Stop it!

J.di Eason says:

I have always liked this Chan, but I must say little josh is wrong on his” bersa is as good as HK” cmon homie

Stephen Anthony says:

Saw the thumbnail and thought, "awesome… two Erics!"

AlmostOn TimeHero says:

There's 3 different kinds of Eric on display here. Skinny Eric, Chubby Eric and Fat Eric.

banmadabon says:

Josh & Josh are straight out of a cartoon…

Philippe FRATER says:

You must be able to shoot a stock gun! Cause if you can't then you don't need and wont be able to shoot better a Gucci gun.
🖖🏻🇫🇷😎🇫🇷🤪🇫🇷🖖🏻

That guy BLUE says:

Hi Point is being targeted because criminals have been known to use them and just toss it after whatever they’ve done. It’s more of a case of a few bad people did it now we don’t want anyone to have them.

ChemistyStudent says:

I always tell people to look at the Walther Creeds. It's a dumb name, but damn. You're getting a heck of a deal.

bobba fett says:

Gotta have that benelli m4. A fancy tube makes the buckshot more effective.

Jonathan Cordova says:

My carry pistol is a Bulgarian Makrov best $130 I ever spent

Jack Daniel. says:

I like shooting my SW model 19, 357 as much as my Heritage rough rider 22mag. It’s all good.

Robert Deming says:

I got similar feelings from the shop where I bought my first handgun. Star BM. The employees were more into tactical guns and wanted me to get a Kahr 380. I just liked the lines of a 1911 and didn’t know the star existed and picked it up for $180. Like you fellas said it was a stepping stone. Now I have several guns

David Lofton says:

Glock. Period

Evan V says:

Guy in the middle got too high before this shoot.

Mario Luigi says:

Lol yes, a hi point was my first pistol… I shoot it more than any of my others. If you go hunting, you're gonna use ur 870 more than your Benelli. Same principle

Charlie Hax says:

It’s funny how there are airsoft guns that cost as much as real firearms

matthewweaverworks says:

9:20 yep. It’s interesting what groups were practicing Open Carry when the strict gun laws started in California. It’s almost like they didn’t want a particular group to have this right to self defense….

cutlerylover says:

Everyone wants to be cool, bottom line…like all industry the expensive stuff is the coolest mostly because its harder to get and usually better quality…But us Gun guys, knife guys, flashlight guys, etc all know expensive does NOT always mean better and if you use lots of gear you will find out quickly some of the cheap stuff works great too…

Mark Dahlia says:

I have personaly had bad experiences with high point. Also I want a light on all of my guns and I think its essential for defensive firearms. And with that I have found ruger security 9s to be very good handguns for 200-300 bucks

Arlie says:

Do you hand those glasses out at the door? LOL

M Via says:

Guy talks about cheap pistols while wearing an iwatch and having 3 grand in tattoos.
Priorities!!

Ian Thomas says:

Its like Eric, Eric if he went on a diet, and Eric if he ate more food all in one place.

A H says:

I'd carry a sub compact Fugly.

Bill F says:

ROFL!!! great insight linking the associations for ppl who are tricking out their IOS devices every 1-2 yrs but going super cheap on self defense! The $220 Taurus G2/C/3 (or whatever it is today), or the $580 CZ will still be working flawlessly and worth close to (or more than) purchase price in 4-5-10 years out, while that IOS device will be sluggish, outdated, or possibly even dead.

Kelton Keenon says:

I see the poors are into YouTube videos now.

orion bennett says:

I have a friend who only buys big brand guns … S&W, Colt, Remington, etc …. I buy M&P, Taurus, Bersa, ATI …. I have twice the firearms and great shooters at half the price.

chris wood says:

This is why i love palmetto state. Budget friendly and works.

thomas green says:

Looks like there's 3 Eric's, but each just chose different lifestyle choices.
