Help me pick a 10mm!

[churchmouse]

So I went and checked out some Glock’s today!
The G20 is like holding a 2x4 with a thick slide attached
The G29 is like holding about three inches of 2x4 with a thick slide attached
Can’t do it I just reminded myself why I do not have any Glock’s

Next up will be the Springfield XDM 4.5

I should say something wise a really here but I will not.

I might want a 10mm ?

It would need to be concealcarryable here are my choices so far.

1. Glock 20sf $464.20

2. Glock 29sf $464.20

3. Colt Delta Elite $1000.00

4. Ruger 1911 $720.00

5. Dan Wesson “Razorback” $1300

Price wise the Glock is a winner but I am not much of a Glock person. The 1911Â’s are nice but I could buy both the Glocks for about the same as the 1911Â’s?
Should I get a Glock with a pile of ammo?
So whatÂ’s the INGO opinion?

If you are dead set on this cartridge for carry(?), then the heaviest of the 5 would be my choice. Number 3 or 5 might be it. This cartridge in anything less than a 6 inch barrel pistol or revolver or single shot has huge diminished return in recoil, muzzle flash, percussion, availabilty and proprietary usage for EDC purposes. If forced to use this round in a semi auto platform, I would get an Ed Brown LS and not look back. Otherwise for the pistols you mention you may need to buy 2 or 3. As a responsibility of EDC you will need to train with this round a lot and it will require a lot of ammo for practice which will in turn take it's toll on the above list.

I wouldn't even shop. Get the Glock and as much ammo as you can afford.

Personally, I would do a GLock 20. Shooting the same round with a tried and true weapon system. For that price, how could you go wrong.

I saw Bass & Bucks had an ad for the P220 Legion in 10mm...

Lone Wolf just released large versions of their Timber Wolf Glock frames for 10mm and .45 acp. They are promoting the grips as being only slightly larger than standard Glock 9mm frames.

Perhaps a better descriptor for his post would be succinct.
