Help with 10mm non 1911

[63PGP]

I have the EAA Limited Witness Custom.

Picked up a couple Henning Group 19 rd mags and had AllenM make it black. Shoot great and its a tank.

Also have a G20SF which has thousands of rounds of all kinds of ammo through it and its never failed.

I have a Glock 20sf it's a handful. It's not ergonomic imo. I did get ahold of the new Springfield 10mm. It's got a great grip compared to the Glock.

Other than being awkward, the Glock 20sf is very reliable and after you learn it very accurate even with the stock barrel. I shoot full bore 10mm. (Why I bought it. If I want 40 S&W power I'd bought one.) I did replace the guide rod and spring with a 22lb Glock store stainless steel guide rod and spring.

You will want to upgrade the trigger as well as the sights. So be prepared for that unless the Gen 4 Glock 20 is better.

A 20SF is my winter carry piece. I absolutely love it! While definitely heavier than my 19, the feel is almost identical. It's a blast (liberally) to shoot.

In just ordered some more carry rounds from Underwood. 180 Gr XTP hollow point.

Outstanding round!

So not to highjack my own post but I came across a video of a guy talking about Harold Fish. Anyone else ready that story?

I'm familiar with the story. Personally, I wouldn't worry about carrying a 10 for SD. The Fish case was basically a prosecutor doing wrong and a poor choice for a defense attorney (iirc).

There was a member on here that used a 10mm in a SD shooting. He even used his own handloads. He was questioned but that was about it.

If it's a good shoot, you most likely will have nothing to worry about. Maybe a membership to something like the Armed Citizen Defense League could ease your mind a little if anything happens.

10mm 1911 sits on my dresser ready and available should the need arise. Never gave it a second thought.

Ummm. Good point. Maybe I’ll just buy both. Going to the gun store on Wednesday so I will have to decide by then. Pics to follow. Thanks.

I really wish S&W would come out with a 10mm M&P or better yet Sig with a 320 10mm. I don’t care for Glock and the 220 10mm is too rich for me.

Perfect. Buy it, then give the rest to your wife "just because".

So if she finds out you bought it, you'll need protection......right?

Yes, and if I dont buy it, I wont have protection...
Dang, it's a catch 22

I used to always just offer to throw the little woman a little extra sex for a few weeks to make up for it.

Pretty sure that only works for attractive people, therefore im s.o.l.

I didn’t say she took me up on it

offering extra sex did shut her up though....

The Glock 20 was designed from the ground up to be able to handle full power 10mm ammunition. The others, not so much, unless you go with a S&W 610, which is a revolver.
