Maybe Shot Show 2019?
There's supposedly a slew of new 10mm's being announced next week at SHOT. I really really really hope an M&P is one of them.

I'm considering the Springfield Armory RO Elite in 10mm.
S&W will never get on it. While other gun makers are getting in on the 10mm market, the clueless clowns at S&W are asleep at the wheel

The XDM 10mm 4.5 has been a welcome surprise for me. I love it! Ergonomics much better than a G20 and seems to be built very well. I'm just crossing my fingers for a Glock single stack 10mm eventually, or really a midsize single stack from any manufacturer would be nice. I like my G29 but it's so blocky and thick.
A single stack M&P 10mm would be AWESOME.

If Smith is listening a M&P Gen 1 frame with a Gen 2 trigger with a 5" barrel would be a perfect handgun....just saying..
I don't own any 2.0's because Smith removed the beaver tail and that was a huge thing for me

I'd love to have an M&P 10mm with 4" barrel. Absent that, I'm going to have to pick up a Springfield Armory XDm 10mm with the 4.25 inch to go with my Ruger SR1911 and Ruger GP100 in 10mm. About the only guns I have that aren't S&W. I'd really like Smith to bring back a 10mm.

You and me both! I have been wanting to get into the 10mm game, but have not really found a 10mm pistol that I really gave a dang about...an M&P 10mm? That would have me getting into the 10mm quickly.

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.
That's why I got the Springfield 1911 in 10mm. Fully supported chamber. Bad news was, I sent it back once for fail to feed, they fixed it. Sent it back again for accuracy, they didn't fix it. But I can handload a full power load with Starline and it will handle it.
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.
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.

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

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 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.
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?

Thank you.
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.

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.
