Why the RM-1S Might Be the Best Budget-Friendly Pistol on the Market

About this video

Colion reviews the Ross Martin RM1S compact 9mm pistol, comparing it to its predecessor, the RM1C. He describes the RM1S as a smaller, more compact carry option that he believes maintains excellent shootability and ergonomics despite its size. Colion walks through the gun’s features, trigger performance, sights, and overall feel, arguing it delivers premium quality at a sub-$450 price point.

Key takeaways

• Colion argues the RM1S achieves a ‘sweet spot’ size for concealed carry—compact enough for comfort but large enough to maintain a good grip and control
• According to Colion, the recoil is manageable and the trigger performs well functionally, despite his personal dislike of its appearance
• Colion contends the RM1S offers premium feel and performance at an affordable price (under $450), making it an excellent value for carry purposes
