One of the most crappiest pistols out there on the market. (Talking about the 9mm version) It's a medium frame pistol with a compact barrel yet it weights like a fucking land mine. The grip looks retarded because they've extended it to cater 15 rounds which makes it even more uncomfortable to carry. It's not accurate and shoots horrible at just 15 meters and it's just a POS to carry. Seriously, can someone come up with the advantages of owning one? I'm curious.
@AnthraxPG Considering the positive reviews on this gun outweigh the negative reviews by maybe 100 to 1, I'd say very many people have come up with advantages to owning one. The accuracy of yours (if you actually own one), must be a fluke, as all reliable weapons have their "lemons". But judging my your use of the phrase "One of the most crappiest", I'm guessing you might be mixing is up with an airsoft platform.
K, havnt seen this vid in a while but jackass responses bring me back, k cool video. Great gun good price. Bad shooter on the video. The shooter looks like hes shooting a desert eagle .44. If i was selling a gun and had a video I'd have someone who has good mussle control. Look at the guy in the swat uniform he's closing one eye!!! Horrible video as far as sales representation. I would love to have oe of these guns though I think quality and value are at a high here....
hello....i just bought this handgun and found it to be very accurate,dashing,handy and really very presentable.....a friend of mine has a glock,but speaking honestly i find stoeger to be more beautiful and presentable......

@pveg65 Close but no cigar. Beretta Holding actually owns Beretta, Stoeger, Benelli, Franchi, and all subsidiaries of those companies. Beretta actually shipped the original machinery to Stoeger to produce the gun. You purchase a Stoeger Cougar and you get a Beretta Cougar with Stoeger stamped on it. Not like Beretta SOLD the plant in Brazil to Taurus and now you get a PT 92 that is a reproduction of a Beretta 92.
@thejmeister88: Stoeger is Beretta's sister company. So you're pretty much buying a Beretta. They're both subdivisions of Benelli. Like Chevy and GMC.
That .40 has kick HAAAAAAA Shit stopper, you can hunt bor with it, blow there eye balls out. you can fire two 9mm or one 40. will do the same...id rather fire one shot!
i got my cougar today and its a 9mm and it has that mutch recoil. i don't know if its because im shooting hollow points. but i tried some other ammo and it was weaker.
The guy has to be firing a 40 there's no way that's a 9mm.. I have the 40 and it does have a lot of recoil my gf hates shooting it I love it though it's accurate feels good in your hands and it's heavier than it looks. I'm gonna get my gf a glock 26 I hear glocks have very low recoil.
sence when is 15 high capacity? Thats sub standard lately seeing as even rugers handguns come with 17 rounds . Most sigs and glocks come with 15 i think in the 40 cal to.. I think anyway. I fIm wrong someone please correct me. Either way It should say standard capacity.
I got my Compact Beretta Cougar 8045 back in the mid 90's, before they sold it off to Stoeger. The 8045 Cougar is hands down better than the Glock, HK45, Sig, etc. in my opinion. The Cougar just a more solid look and feel than all those other service weapons. Seriously, once you hold a cougar you won't want any other pistol.
actually stoeger is owned by beretta, they discontinued the cougar & sent all the original machinery to their stoeger plant in turkey, exact same gun made on the exact same machines when they was stamping them with beretta.
they're only making the 9mm and 40 in F config though.. there is a 45 & .357sig that was also made under beretta name along with some other variants like inox.
got mine for 330, been looking to buy another but can't find them now.
I got mine for $399, recieved it on Monday, I'm totally pleased with it. I'm hoping to do a personal review of it soon, however it would be a newb's review since this is my first gun, lol. Overall though, it's a great gun! I have no complaints about it!
It's funny how much it kicks when this guy fires it, it must be his "stance" when I first took my Cougar to the range it had much less recoil then I expected, felt like shooting a 9mm. Great pistol, Great price, ...I guess the point I'm trying to get across is it's nice.
I agree, great pistol. Awsom price for around 300.
I got the 8000 by bro got i think the 8040 which is the 40. The action is a little smoother with the nine tho and they kick about the same, i think its because of the inter-locking rotating barrel.
I want one, badly... I shooted the 8040 once, and fell in love with it, but I like the 9mm availability and affordability (to practice). The Stöeger Cougar in one of the best deals in a handgun out there. That and the PT1911 from Taurus.
Pmoua101, the shooter they showed is "Weak Wristed" the gun compared to other 9mm and 40. S&W has less recoil felt, notably I have heard putting 150-200 rounds through it Softens the springs giving it even less kick. Read abit before you judge off of one poor shooters handling of the firearm.
@unvun ug, most .40s actually kick MORE than .45s smart one. The size of the bullet compared to the materials needed to make it reliable make it lighter than .45 acp automatics and give .40 automatics more recoil. Not to mention a relaxed shooter is more accurate than a rigid one. Please know what you're talking about before calling someone out.
@unvun Maybe you should actually check my videos for firearm videos showing I own many real firearms including a concealed carry, P99, you stupid shitbag
@RedDragonAirsoft Maybe you can have your gay lil airsoft buddies watch your videos. Real people have better things to do than waste time watching queer videos from faggets like you LOL!!!
@unvun Gay little airsoft buddies meaning clackamas swat department buying KWA Sig P226s, KWA M4A1s, and ICS MP5s for training? Yea these aren't little toys, they're professional training devices fucktard.
@unvun Ignorance at its best. Its a 40 S&W. What do you expect the recoil to be like? a 32 lr! I have that exact gun he is shooting and thats about right. .40 S&W is not a small round (I would know as I am staring at a box of them). Go to a gun range b4 you make a stupid comment like that.
i bought this stoeger 9mm few months back and i fired almost 200 runds but the sad news about this pistol is " rotary barrel stuck sometime. then it need to open it up and put some anti rust or oil :-(
my pistol is with black recoil spring mount and i saw the same pistol in silver aswell ????????????????????
rotary barrel got its own highs and lows, the best thing is to always keep the barrel and trigger oiled, as for the rust or jamming then i only suggest WD40 oil spray which is far better and cheaper then so called big brand oils. just field strip the weapon, at least once a month as well as after every shooting session, blast the oil spray on every part, leave it for 10 to 20 minutes and then gently clean it while leaving tiny amount of oil in and outside of the rotary barrel n in trigger.
but how else could they make it look uber 1337 powerful for all of the gamer tards that troll youtube while their FPS servers are down. you know...the kind that argue about guns with real soldiers and operators like myself cause they got a better education on the pc than in ranger school
Super nice pistol. Great quality, accuracy and reliabilty. No reservations at all recommending this pistol, the price is amazing.
