I understand that the validity of the 9mm round was in question after the shootout, and that is one of the primary reasons that the 10mm round was selected and the S&W 1076 was picked as the weapon to use it in. Just what exactly was the reasoning behind replacing the Model 13 revolvers? Were they deemed insufficient as well?

Weapon capacity/reloading issues were at least a sub-factor.

Be safe.
