Thank you Mike Mcnett.
You helped get us over the hump.

Been hoping this will keep up. If the round keeps gaining popularity then the price of the ammo will keep coming down. Of course the downside is it has me wanting another handgun too.

Was it ever dead? I just went 10mm shopping today and had tons of options to choose from. Prices for ammo aren't too bad either, I was able to pick up fmj target ammo for $17.99 for a box of 50.

I would not buy a Bren Ten, but my 10mm Glock is delightful to shoot and I was looking at the Rem R1 and the Kriss Vector especially sharing Glock magazines.

That Kriss in 10mm... WANT!

That Kriss in 10mm... WANT!

And it is less than the CMMG Guard MKG-45, so that should make it a gimme, if only they were in stock...

Socks? I don't remember any socks in that show. That is my favorite holster, just wish I could practice a draw from it at the range.

It never actually died but it sure looked like it might for a while. It got to the point where for a good while it was rare to see one new. The ammo was also rare to see. For a couple years now it's seen a resurgence and it keeps getting better.

The only reason the 10mm isn't the number one selling handgun/cartridge in the US is because people are wimpy.



True story.

 

[Sawdust]

I am REALLY nostalgic for my old Colt Delta Elite/SS these days....
Heck, I'd even take my old duty SW 1076 back at this point.

Guess I'll have to just go check out all the new offerings..

I could make so many AR jokes with this... Don't tempt me.

Color me intrigued.

Color me intrigued.

The AR sells more than other rifles because people can't handle recoil.
Skinny Vietnamese women had AKs, journalist cries cause AR (this one is more of an insult to the journalist but give me some credit).
AR is to prepare children to shoot real rifles.

List can go on. I quite like the 5.56 round (and retro ARs, like M16A1 and Xm177 clones), just couldn't resist.

I do think I'm missing a 10mm in my life. Maybe when I'm done with rifles I need to get a 10mm.

Let me clear my throat......

AR's sell more than others due to price, available parts and an aftermarket that rivals no other. Let's not forget the press and anti-gunners that have made it a household name. Thank you Anti-2A's for making it the hottest selling rifle these days.

I think recoil has ZIPPO to do with it. The AK has barely any more recoil than the AR, is less accurate... and by today's standards reliability can be easily argued either way. This ain't 1965 afterall.

But yes, you ARE missing a 10mm in your life. And when acquired it will change that.

IMO yes, the 10mm was invented in 1983 and had trouble right out of the gate in guns with the Bren Ten being the only offering which didnt sell and IIRC went bankrupt. The cartridge was dead until Colt started selling them in their Delta Elite, but they also had problems with the first run frame cracking and stopped making them for a while. Then Smith & Wesson made some for a short while and discontinued them, then Glock started selling them later on, then Colt fixed their issue and made them again too, (not certain if I have that order correctly...) I don't recall exactly when that was but I do recall when I first wanted one in the mid 90s and couldn't find anything for about a year until I found the last Colt Delta Elite in town at a store and drove straight over. Ammo wasn't as popular or available and most was really watered down for a long while....
...but I slowly watched the ammo and guns availability grow to what it was today, most all major manufacturers offer a 10mm gun and ammo is widely available and the trend has moved back, kinda, to mostly "full pressure" * loads including hunting loads the way it should be.

*the original 10mm was never meant to be watered down, normal 10mm is "full pressure"


I read a gun mag a while ago that suggested that someone was going to re-introduce the Bren Ten.

I digress....

Paki tape. AK is not as accurate cause silly infidels don't use green paki tape. You must use green tape, praise allah, you hit bug other side of desert.

I know its mostly cost and parts availability, just had to joke with it. While the AK does not have much more recoil (if comparing an AKM or AK47 to an AR), people still do blow the recoil out of proportion. My friend thought my mother, who is only 5' and 109 lbs, couldn't handle the wasr and she handled it quite well, especially since the warsaw stock is perfect for her. Course I think it was just his ego trying to push an AR on her, when she prefers the AK. Its the only rifle I have she thinks is cool, and the only one she figured out without my aid.
Course, FAL>Both AK and AR anyways. It is the Right Arm of the Free World after all.

Also, if I get a 10mm I might get a .44 mag to go with it.

For some reason, a quality AR can be had for less than an AK these days. With a rail to mount optics and such.

Pmags are sold at most sporting goods stores, and let's not forget how tacticool an AR can look.

And the most important thing about the AR??

Yeah... I'm going with the FAL. The rest of the free world liked it.

AKs do have rails available tbh, I just don't use em. Atm my AUG is the only rifle with rails (much to my annoyance). I stepped away from ARs. The only ARs I'll have in the future are retro builds. Not sure why, just don't care for the tacticool look.... He says as his AK wears a foregrip handguard.

Also, I have the sidearm that won both World Wars, so I'm good on the U.S part.

Maybe that'll be my first 10mm?

I might have a half dozen AR's somewhere that range from a CAR-15 clone to tacticool builds.

I'd love to add an FAL into the mix.

A 10mm ALWAYS fits in somewhere.
