Master Chief, I and I'm sure others here who've never shot 10mm would be interested to know how you developed this interest in the cartridge. Frankly, I was surprised to read that you're considering switching to your converted 10mm pistol as your EDC from your 45ACP's. All of us here value your opinions about these matters, and if 10mm is your choice in a self-defense round, I for one feel the need to sit up and take notice.

I've been a 45ACP guy at heart, though I toyed with 40S&W at one point, but I eventually "ran home to mama" and have been dedicated to big, fat, and slow ever since. I read that the FBI Hostage Rescue and SWAT teams are still issued 10mm, and that some police agencies use it too. I guess recoil was the biggest knock on 10mm as a "one size fits all" round for LE, but I've never had a problem with 45ACP and don't think 10mm would be an issue for me.

What say you on this?
