SEE PART ONE HERE: https://youtu.be/r6_5YIrrbhU

In this second episode of a two part TFBTV series, James compares four popular doublestack compact 9mm handguns:

-Glock 26
-Smith & Wesson M&P9 Compact
-Ruger American Compact
-Kel-tec P11

James ranks each of these guns and assigns points based on the following criteria:

Part I:
Round 1: Dimensions: Size and weight against capacity – which gun is the most efficient?
Round 2: Trigger: Trigger weight and feel.
Round 3: Mechanics: Charging and discharging/loading and unloading the gun.
Round 4: Fit & Finish: Quality of finish, external machined features, overall fitment.

Part II:
Round 5: Sights: Quality and practicality of sights.
Round 6: Value: Cost-to-performance ratio.
Round 7: Shooting Performance: How well do all of the other factors coalesce into producing a functional shooting machine?

Also, James announces two new TFBTV features:

First, TFBTV will start a monthly “TFBTV Mailroom” program. Viewers can send anything they want to TFBTV at TFBTV’s PO Box in New Orleans. (TFBTV Mail Room, PO Box 52288, New Orleans, LA 70152). Send (a) The Item; (b) A Short Description of the Item, and; (c) (OPTIONAL) Your Name and/or Contact Information. We will open everything on camera and read your description.

Second, TFBTV is going to roll out a comment competition. *This is for subscribers or Patreon supporters only, so make sure you are a sub and we can view your subs in your profile.* The best comments will get a random item that was sent in to the mail bag (feel free to request a hand-pick, we will do the best we can).

The comment competition for this video is:
*”Which of these guns should lose the Subcompact Showdown and Why?”*

Winners will be announced on the TYouTube Video Page (check the pinned comment) or on James’ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jjreevesii/

Good luck!
