Well, isn't this just a blast from the past! It's extremely informative though, a good read for sure.

One thing that I find mildly amusing is seeing posts from 2008 declaring that the 10mm Auto was in the midst of a grand revival. It seems like anytime a company offers a gun chambered in 10mm Auto, the diehard fans insist that it's a sign that the 10mm is all setup to take the market by storm, that it will finally receive the recognition it deserves and claim its place as the undisputed best handgun cartridge.

Don't get me wrong, 10mm Auto is a fantastic cartridge, but it just doesn't have that kind of widespread appeal. It's a special purpose cartridge which will always have a following and its niches, but it isn't ever going to overtake .45 ACP, much less 9mm Luger in popularity or common usage.
