M&P 10mm

[jughed440]

I got the 10mm Fever a while back and picked up a Colt Delta Elite later model. Being a 1911 "cultist" I had to have it. I still like it but was disappointed when I figured out that full power loads will Glock the brass. So now I've got a couple thousand pieces of new starline brass and I down load just enough not to ruin the brass. Really wish it had a fully supported chamber. A nice gun other than that. Throws brass about 30 feet.

A KKM aftermarket barrel is fully supported and will eliminate the "Glock Smile" on the brass. They're pricey, but good to have if you reload.

still waiting... been researching Glock 40 MOS. Don't make me do this.

Do It! (Unless Glocks don't fit your hand to well). The G40 is the most accurate semi auto i own. That may not be enough to convince you to purchase one, but i have no regrets at all. Mounted a FF3 on it...it's the perfect woods gun for this area.

There are .40 S&W and .357 Sig barrels easily available for the Glock 40 too. Option 2 is a Rock Island double stack 10mm. 1911A2.

So now that the 610 has been re-released, does anyone think we stand a better chance of seeing a 10mm M&P?

It's quite possible

Not really. The 610 means S&W has noticed the renewed interest in the 10mm cartridge. But it doesn't affect whether or not they think their 45 M&P platform is strong enough for it. If it will only require a new barrel, slide and spring it could happen. It it means designing a whole new gun probably not.

I gave up, bought a xdm 10mm. So far so good. Smith should be making this.

Smith should be making this.

I agree, maybe we'll see it at Shot Show 2020?

I was looking at Glock 20 and 40s again last night, and barrel options.........

I wanted to see what all the fuss was about with the 10mm. I have shot .44Mags(12 of them), 500s, and 460s. The latter is a thumper...but It is accurate.
I have 20 PC target guns and love them. My favorite 9mm is my converted 3566 Tactical (PC conversion to 9mm). My favorite .45 is my 945...and a modified 625. but I have competed in the past in Glock matches....and a member of GSSF. With my membership I am entitled to a new Glock every year at discounted prices...However when I talked about a G40MOS, my dealer suggested converting my G41 MOS to 10mm with a new barrel and mags. I did it. It is very accurate and after only 100 rounds, the slide was battered a bit...resulting in misfires...Needless to say, I do not understand all the hype....It really does hit hard, but the ergonomics of the Glock do not fit my small hand...I LOVE my M&Ps, and a 10mm M&P would be nice...but a PC 10mm 1911 would be better. The heavier frame would mitigate the recoil. Mind you, it is not offensive, just noticeable. Pick ups 9mm after shooting the 10 and it feels like a plinker.
Handloaded with AA9 and a 180 or 200gr bullet.

Springfield Armory XDm has polymer rear rails, I'll pass. Something about a metal slide riding on polymer doesn't seem like a good idea.

It's passed a 30k mark on reliability....might be ok

My Ruger KP-95DC has an all polymer lower, including rails. No issue so far. Can't think of a single Ruger polymer that isn't stout.

Was this an independent test, or was it done by Springfield? Where did you read they did a 30k test, I thought it was 10k in the video on their website back when it was released?

 

[Racer X]

well, I just commited to buy a NOS 1911 holster, so, I may get the RIA 52009. Smith is gonna loose a sale. Not that they appear to care.

Independent test. I'll post it when I find it again. One of the bloggers.

Thank you.

Still waiting........

 

[asilcot]

Gave up waiting. I bought the XDm10 OSP and love it. That gun is everything the 10mm ever hoped to be. This was after years of calls and emails to SA's customer service and being told that they would never make a 10mm XDm. It was worth waiting for.

PS: S&W, I still have one open slot in the pistol rack in my gun safe.

 

[Autonomous]

There's a good chance I'll buy an XDM 10 OSP or 5.25" later this year. S&W is missing the movement away from revolvers to 10mm semi-autos for woods protection.
