If limited to 10 rounds, what do you carry?

[csurp34]

Glock 43X loaded w/Federal .124 +P JHP.


I know. I know.


It's a tool.


There are aftermarket 15rnd magazines for it.


Waiting to see what happens in DC.

When I'm on my 300 wooded acres out west, I'm carrying either a Freedom Arms 4" 454 in a western rig, or a Ruger Alaskan in 454. Either work in conjunction with my Big Horn 454 lever action, plus, you can tailor 45 Long Colt from extremely light self defense to heavy duty loadings, as well as the option to do the same in 454. When I carry my Alaskan in the bush, it's usually loaded with mid range heavy duty 45 colt loadings, with two blue speed loaders with heavy bear loads, and 1 red speed loader with heavy 454 loads.

Sounds like you are loaded for bear!

I prefer my 'Ma Deuce' but people REALLY get nervous when I put it on my shoulder!!

 

[TAROMAN]

Glock 30 every day.

Most likely my Sig P220 Match Elite in 10mm, alternatives are S&W 645 and 639. I like the fit and grip of my 639 the best, the P220 feels very similar to it with a little more punch.

AJ "If the shots are properly placed then by the third shot the whole problem should be ended."

Both of these officers were working within the realm of their department's restrictions. I have also spoken with an FBI agent who was involved in a similar situation wherein twelve rounds were fired and neither individual was hurt. Go figure. I know for myself and having been shot i surely would not want to have it happen again.

When 12 rounds are fired and no one was hurt, then obviously the shots were not properly placed. "Sight alignment and trigger control" was taught to me from day one in the Corps.

Do you carry concealed or open carry? Do you use +P ammo? Larry

UPDATE! I'm Glocking my life away!
I just bought a Glock 43x.
So now I can carry 10 rounds for sure.
And when I start shooting, it'll throw brass all over.
And folks will say, he used to be a nice quiet J Frame guy.
Now he's got a Brass thrower!
What is this World coming to?

 

[Oil Field Trash]

I'd carry a rucksack full of loaded 10 rd magazines for whatever I'm carrying

"If limited to 10 rounds, what do you carry?"

For me, 5 rounds of 38 Special. Any more than that becomes a big-time PITA.

NH does not restrict anything (well, maybe rocket launchers) but i carry an old school 3914.
They just make sense to me.
I am a revolver fan so DA on the first shot is natural to me. SA requires practice, practice and more practice to recover the trigger discipline after the first DA shot.

I have a few "carry" guns that fit a "10 rounds or less" requirement (G43, G36, Sig 238, Sig 938, WC ULCC, and a couple J frame Smiths), and I've recently started carrying a J frame Smith again (either 442 or 637) and don't really feel undergunned.

I carry a 5" DA/SA S&W629 .44mag. I only shoot it SA. I've got the lightest available rebound spring on it, for the lightest possible trigger. Shooting SA doesn't really slow me down much, because the VERY relaxed grip style I use results in an essentially vertical muzzle rise, and I re-cock the hammer with my weak thumb as the muzzle is coming back down.

I think some people dislike SA because with essentially no trigger motion, it makes flinching more likely. The most "flinch-free" trigger is one that moves with almost constant pressure, over a distance long enough that you can't anticipate when the shot will go off. (I used to have a Savage .22 rifle that had a trigger like that). A light SA trigger is just the opposite ... essentially no motion at all, so you pretty much know when it's going to go off. I worked for years to get rid of that flinch, and somehow finally succeeded a few years ago ... I'm not sure how, maybe just lots and lots of shooting.

As ole Gunny Scheible used to beat into us " It's best to carry a canon and not need it than carry a toidy little pop gun and need it badly "

I'm in a 10 round state.

With one up the spout I get 9 rounds with CMC Match magazines in a .45acp 1911

An HKS speed loader ups my 640 Centennial to 10 if I reload fast enough.

 

[SammyJoe]

HK VP9SK, flush baseplate mags

 

[texmex]

If limited to 10 rounds, I carry two 640 357s.
