imschur Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I was thinking I wouldnt mind having a 10mm handgun. I first checked out Glock but then decided to see what else was available. I was surprised to see there wasnt many offerings from the main stream manufacturers.Is 10mm fading away? Has .40S&W won the battle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I have neither, I go from 9mm to .45acp. I've been trying to keep the different calibers of guns to a minimum for cost savings. I looked a Gallery of Guns out of curiosity and it only came up with 29 10mm(6 Glock, rest European American Armory) as opposed to 157 in .40SW.

imschur Posted April 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I should have took that path. I surfed site after site to end up with Glock, EAA and a few stray 1911's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodent.22 Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 It doesn't look like the 10mm is gonna have a huge future.... :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asmurff Posted April 6, 2011 Report Share Posted April 6, 2011 How long have 10mm pistols been around? Has there ever been a standout pistol offered originally in 10mm? I'm sure being associated with the Bren 10 didn't help it's acceptance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still want one if I can find it in the right condition and price range. :thumb: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microgunner Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 I believe the 10mm earned an early reputation for shaking pistols to pieces and this may have a trickle down influence to this day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted April 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 I shot a S&W 1006 when it was released. That was a hefty pistol and you knew you just sent something hot down range. Accurate combo. I miss those Gen 3 smiths Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microgunner Posted April 7, 2011 Report Share Posted April 7, 2011 The 3rd generation S&Ws were the best they built and bring a premium in our store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
