10mm Comeback

...and when a Dimotwit is in the white house again .40s&w will be the last one still left on the shelf.

Shhh. .40 sucks.

Technically, it really sucked for him... it was the uber driver whom it worked out for.

Too soon?

I realize this is a bit old, but thought a couple of you would appreciate this. 10mm 200 gr Beartooth hardcast out of a G40, about 1300 FPS. Full penetration and not recovered. It is my woods carry/camp pistol.

As for the 40 decline, not because it is ballistically inferior, the recoil is manageable except for all the new snowflakes coming of age.

Had a 10mm gen 3 G20, with a Wolf barrel, for a couple of years and love it. Say Delta Elite 10mm and I'm ecstatic. And I still like .40s.

1cm FTW!

10mm fills a real niche that 40 just doesn’t. 40 is great for CCW or even HD needs but 10mm is an excellent caliber for a woods gun if you don’t like revolvers. I’ve got a Glock 20 and I love it.

I actually recently snatched up my first .40 because it was so cheap. I got a LNIB HK p30 for $400 and felt like I got a really good deal. I’ve seen a ton of super cheap deals on 40 S&W pistols these days. After shooting 10mm for a few years as well as having a 357 Sig, shooting 40 seems really mild.
