Hey Folks!
Not to flame or start a peeing contest, however I would respectfully disagree with Fastbolt.
I have shot the 10mm for a few years and like any other caliber, practice, patience and shooting will overcome slow reflexes and recovery times.
When I qualified with a SOT team a few years back, I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with the Glock I was forced to shoot because of the rangemasters preference. I was told to stick to being a Medic.
However we were allowed to shoot and carry a "Backup" gun.
Not only did I improve my times and accuracy, but I was in the top 2 shooters of the team. This was with a Colt Double Eagle in 10mm.
The rangemaster informed me that I need to carry the Colt and skip the Glocks.
Also nto to stand by him if I am shooting a Glock! LOL!!
There is simply no substitute for practice and knowing you carry weapon.
With that being said, I agree that the 10mm is not a beginners caliber with any stretch of the imagination.
I can only imagine what it is like to train the great masses in CCW and Fastbolt has my greatest respect and honor.
Just my 2 cents. Take care and God Bless...HT
