Springfield XDM Elite Compact 45 ACP Review (Compact Power Puncher) - https://youtu.be/eVvVZtVVrQc
Now this is not my first Springfield XDM Elite review and so far I am a fan of this lineup. Both of these Springfield XDM compact are great. You get everything you need right out of the box, the magwell, good sights, plenty of safety features, good trigger and an impressive mag capacity for such a compact size. If you are looking for a high capacity pistol that you can easily carry, the Springfield 9mm XDM is an excellent option. If you prefer more stopping power over the capacity, Springfield 45 ACP XDM might be the way to go!

Safariland 7360RDS Review (Level 3 Safariland Holster Review)
Safariland 7360RDS Review (Level 3 Safariland Holster Review)
Welcome to Firearms of America! Today, I have another holster review for you guys and this time it is Safariland duty holster, model 7360RDS. Here is the Amazon link:
Safariland 7360RDS Level Three Retention Duty Holster, Red Dot Sight Compatible - https://amzn.to/3lWgKfi
Let's start with this Safariland level 3 holster specs:
7360RDS-8325-481 Fits: Glock 17 Gen 5 with Surefire X300U w/RDS
For Use With Red Dot Optic Equipped Weapons
Mid-ride UBL places weapon grip just above the belt; fits 2.25" belt
Protective RDS Cover automatically rotates away when drawing the weapon
ALS/SLS Locking Systems, Level 3 Retention
So, I have to say, this is by far, the best duty holster that I've had. It is rugged, lightweight and versatile. If you are not a fan of SLS and want just an ALS Safariland holster, you can definitely remove the SLS and then re-install it later if you decide to. In fact, you can use Safariland holster finder in order to find exactly what works for you. The RDS is for Safariland red dot holster. I don't have the red dot currently, by eventually I am planning to add the RMR.
Let me know what you think about this Safariland 7360 holster review! Thank you for watching! God bless!

Spiritual Aspect of Being Prepared for Survival: You Know Who Else Wants YOU to Be Prepared? Jesus!
Spiritual Aspect of Being Prepared for Survival: You Know Who Else Wants YOU to Be Prepared? Jesus!
Welcome to Firearms of America! Today, I am yet again at my workbench, working on my rig, specifically on my operator belt, changing out some mag pouches since I dropped a couple mags on my previous training day.
And while working on my gear, I wanted to make this video, talking about gear in general, but not from the materialistic point of view, but more so spiritual. After all, if you are not in touch with the spirit, then what is the point of trying to survive anyway? Yet, we all want to survive and be prepared to a certain degree, even when some of us do not understand why. And the reason why is because our savior Jesus Christ (Yeshua) wants us to be prepared.
Here are the parables and part of the scripture that I've mentioned in the video:
6And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for this must take place, but the end is not yet. 7For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are but the beginning of the birth pains. 9“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name's sake. 10And then many will fall away[a] and betray one another and hate one another. 11And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. 12And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. 13But the one who endures to the end will be saved. - Matthew 24:6-13
15“Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed!” - Revelation 16:15
35 “Stay dressed for action and keep your lamps burning, 36 and be like men who are waiting for their master to come home from the wedding feast, so that they may open the door to him at once when he comes and knocks. 37 Blessed are those servants whom the master finds awake when he comes. Truly, I say to you, he will dress himself for service and have them recline at table, and he will come and serve them. 38 If he comes in the second watch, or in the third, and finds them awake, blessed are those servants! 39 But know this, that if the master of the house had known at what hour the thief was coming, he would not have left his house to be broken into. 40 You also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.” - Luke 12:35-40.

DON'T STARVE on Your Hike: AOTU Portable Camping Stove Review (Ultralight Backpacking Stove Review)
DON'T STARVE on Your Hike: AOTU Portable Camping Stove Review (Ultralight Backpacking Stove Review)
Today, we are talking about backpacking cooking gear, specifically, the backpacking cooking stove from AOTU that is insanely popular on Amazon and is an alternative to MSR Pocket Rocket. Well, it might be popular, but is it the best portable stove for camping and survival? Well, hopefully by the end of this video, you will be able to decide!
Here are all the Amazon links:
OTU Portable Camping Stoves Backpacking Stove with Piezo Ignition Stable Support Wind-Resistance Camp Stove for Outdoor Camping Hiking Cooking - https://amzn.to/3YhMwBH
GasOne Camping Stove Fuel Blend Isobutane Efficient and High Output - https://amzn.to/3XliawJ

Mountain House Survival & Emergency Food - https://amzn.to/3Yoqo8B
Of course, ultralight camping stove is only one of the options that you can implement as part of your survival backpack kit. You can always go with the supplies that do not require any cooking, like some premade dehydrated backpacking meals, which would be a cheaper, lighter option. But, you got to admit, it is nice to have a hot meal after a long day, whether you were simply out and about enjoying the beautiful scenery that the outdoors have to offer, or you were on a mission.
So, let me know in the comments below, what do you think about this AOTU camping stove as your survival cooking solution or hiking, camping? As always, thank you for watching and God bless!

Overall, you get from this Glock pistol exactly what you expect from a Glock. Easy operation, basic design, reliable performance. This particular one is a full size Glock and considering the magazine capacity, this Glock handgun is a great option for self and home defense. Is this the best Glock for self defense? Well, that comes down to your personal preference, but a lot of Glock fans think that the Glock 17 is the best 9mm Glock... although to me it is between Glock 19 and Glock 17.
Doing this Glock 47 MOS review was pretty easy for me because I have already reviewed so many Glocks in the past from different generations.
So, what do you guys think about this Glock G47 review? Let me know in the comments below! Thanks for watching! God bless!

Trans Beretta: Undergoing Caliber Change - Is It Worth It? (40 S&W to 9MM)
Trans Beretta: Undergoing Caliber Change - Is It Worth It? (40 S&W to 9MM)
Welcome to Firearms of America! Today, I have another Beretta review for you guys, again, courtesy of Dietriech, and this is actually a Beretta pistol that I reviewed last week. Since last week, however, this Beretta decided to change its caliber. Was it worth it? Let's find out!
Here is the this Beretta before the caliber change:
Beretta 96 Brigadier Border Marshal Review (Beefed Up 40 cal Beretta) - https://youtu.be/Ttm3m6_CB_Q
As usual, let's start this Beretta 96 review with some specs:
Barrel: 4.7-in
Produced: 1999 - 2005
Caliber: .40 S&W (now 9mm)
Action: short recoil semi-automatic
Trigger: double-action (DA/SA)
Safety: slide mounted safety/decock lever
Magazine: 10-round
Frame: anodized aluminum
Grip: rubber
Sights: fixed 3-dot
So, from 40 cal Beretta to a 9mm Beretta handgun. How does it feel? Gotta say, it feels pretty awesome! Super flat shooting, super easy to handle and visually, you would never tell the difference.
So, let me know what you think about this Beretta 96 Border Marshal review? As always, thank you for watching and God bless!

Glock 23 Gen 5 Review (Better Late Than Never 40 Caliber Glock review)
Glock 23 Gen 5 Review (Better Late Than Never 40 Caliber Glock review)
Here is the Glock pistol on Palmetto State Armory site:
Glock 23 Gen 5 - https://alnk.to/5ucQj0T
Welcome to Firearms of America! Today, I have another Glock 40 caliber pistol review for you guys and this is Glock 23 review!
As usual, let's start with this Glock 23 specs:
MANUFACTURER: GLOCK
FAMILY: G23 Series
MODEL: G23 G5
TYPE: Semi-Auto Pistol
ACTION: Safe Action
CALIBER/GAUGE: 40 S&W
FINISH: nDLC Finish
FINISH TYPE: Black
FRAME: Polymer Frame
BARREL: 4.02"
OVERALL LENGTH: 7.28"
CAPACITY: 10 + 1
# OF MAGAZINES: 3
MAG DESCRIPTION: 10 rd.
SIGHTS: Fixed Glock Sights
SIGHT TYPE: Fixed Sights
WEIGHT: 26.67 oz.
So, another good, reliable Glock (typical). Of all the Glock models and calibers, this Glock G23 gen 5 was very familiar to me from the start, because my very first Glock was chambered in 40 S&W (Glock 35 Gen 3) and my current sidearm Glock is a Glock 17 gen 5, which is an identical size, only in 9mm.
Here is the review of my Glock 17 gen 5:
Glock 17 Gen 5 Review (SECOND Most Popular Glock Model) - https://youtu.be/j9uZk-LNQ9E
Here is my Glock 35 review:
Glock 35 Gen 3 Review (Glock 35 Gen 3) - https://youtu.be/ezLhnIuJpfg
Also, here is my Glock 22 gen 5 review:
Glock 22 Gen 5 Review (Another 40 S&W Glock Gen 5 Review) - https://youtu.be/wcQGzsnjJ1c
Now some differences between Glock generations are the grip, upgraded guide rod and a few other little details like the magazine. While changes might seem insignificant to some, I think Glock gen 5 is definitely an upgrade to Glock gen 4 and 3, although I do miss the finger groves.
Overall though, you get from this Glock pistol exactly what you expect from a Glock. I think this Glock handgun is a great option for self and home defense, considering the mag capacity.
So, what do you guys think about this Glock G23 review? Let me know in the comments below! Thank you for watching and God bless!

Beretta 96 Brigadier Border Marshal Review (Beefed Up 40 cal Beretta)
Beretta 96 Brigadier Border Marshal Review (Beefed Up 40 cal Beretta)
Welcome to Firearms of America! Today, I have another Beretta review for you guys and this is not just any Beretta, this is Beretta 96 Brigadier review.
As usual, let's start this Beretta 96 review with some specs:
Barrel: 4.7-in
Produced: 1999 - 2005
Caliber: .40 S&W
Action: short recoil semi-automatic
Trigger: double-action (DA/SA)
Safety: slide mounted safety/decock lever
Magazine: 10-round
Frame: anodized aluminum
Grip: rubber
Sights: fixed 3-dot
So, I have to say, after my failed attempt to have a good impression on Beretta 92FS that I have reviewed a while ago, this Beretta 96 40 cal is very refreshing! As you can see, not a single malfunction, the operation is smooth and straightforward. I do like the rubber grips and super crisp trigger. An option for a SA and DA is a great addition to the carry safety on case if you prefer to carry without the safety engaged, but with the heavier trigger pull.
You might be wondering, so what is the whole Beretta Brigadier edition? Well, apparently, it is the edition with the beefed up slide for a better handling of plus P ammo.
Overall, I am a fan of this Beretta handgun and it makes me want to find Beretta M9 or a 9FS for another review. Let me know what you think about this Beretta 96 Border Marshal review? As always, thank you for watching and God bless!

Will YOU Be the Next John Wick? (Taran Tactical JW4 Pit Viper Preview)
Welcome to Firearms of America! Today, I have, yet again, another awesome surprise for you guys that has to do with John Wick Chapter 4, Taran Tactical and another cool giveaway. Yes, John Wick's handgun from the John Wick 4 movie is here, the TTi Pit Viper.
During my visit of Taran Tactical range in California, I had the opportunity to shoot the Pit Viper and go through a course that Taran Butler had prepared for us. I have to say, this Taran Tactical pistol doesn't just make you a better shot, but it makes you a better student. Instead of concentrating on recoil management and sight alignment, it becomes much easier to become one with the gun.
And of course, how cool is that this gun is featured in JW4? If you haven't seen John Wick 4 trailer, check it out!
So, as always, thank you for watching, good luck with your entry and God bless!

The More Comfortable We Get, The Less Happy We Become
The More Comfortable We Get, The Less Happy We Become
Welcome to Firearms of America! Today I am out trail running in the Florida swamp, and while stopping for a little break, I decided to record this little Sunday sermon on the difference between the materialistic world of the flesh that has no meaning or value, or purpose, and the real world, as it was created by God, that operates in perfect balance and harmony.
When you are out in the wild and the further you are out in the wild, the more you learn from the wildlife about the real life, the life without unnecessary worries, fears, anxieties. In our materialistic world, the human world that we have created ourselves, we surround ourselves with more and more comfort. But the more comfortable we get, the less happy we become, the more meaningless our lives become.
It is truly a shame, because we have the capacity to create by the spirit, giving the glory to God and do good. Any technology or industry could be used to do good, if only if we could give up our pride and give glory to God. Yet, we take the glory to ourselves and become corrupt.
Take the internet for example. How much good can come out of the internet? Plentiful. Yet, we see all these negative effects of the internet on our society. Why? Because instead of using it by the spirit for doing good, we are using it for our comfort, our glory, our materialism.
What happened to the energy and the drive and the passions that we had as kids? These things come from the spirit and when we are kids, we are not yet corrupted by the materialistic world. Our spirit is not yet suppressed by the flesh. But the older we get, the more comfortable we become, the more we suppress our spirit in order to maintain that meaningless comfort. We sacrifice our purpose for the sake of the flesh.
The good news is that the spirit is still in you. Give up your comfort. Submit your flesh. Follow the spirit. God bless!
