Lots of chatter about the steel witnesses, but I don't hear much talk about the Witness P. there's a Witness P Compact in 10mm at a nearby gun store and it has me curiously intrigued...anybody with first hand experience?
I have the steel one, but have never seen the P one.
I have never see a P-carry, but would definitely be interested, or would have been before I picked up my Glock 29. Probably still wouldn't pass on one.
IMHO,Go with Glock on compact.Witness shines fullsize,Elite Series.
I'm intriqued as well. However, I have yet to see one.

From all I've heard I agree with pacacop.
I held the one I was looking at. It seemed like it would be uncomfortable. I bought a Sarsilmaz K2-45...it's .45 acp and not 10mm, but it's a tack hammer and I don't feel bad if I don't find all of my brass.
I wish the Sarsilmaz K2-10mm were available, would love to try one of those out!
Is there really a 10mm planned, or are people mistaking the SAR K2-10 for a 10MM? The K2-45 is .45, but the K2-10 is a 9mm HK 'inspired' clone. People usually also mention that the 10mm version will have a 17 round mag which further leads me to think this is a case of mistaken identity. As always, I could be (and probably am) wrong.
hAkron, I think you are thinking of the Sarsilmaz ST-10, which is a 9mm and has a very similar appearance to the HK USP.
The orginal K2 brochure and press release that EAA put out listed the K2 in 9mm, 40 S&W, 10mm and 45 acp. Since then they have revised the the brochure to only list the K2 in 45 ACP. I don't know why they revised the document, but I take this as a sign that the other calibers are probably not going to materialize.
Once again we 10mm owners came to the party but find out dance cards empty.
>:(
Yes, ST10, that is right. Either way, I think the 10mm version is a pipe dream.
I think they are Great! I have a compact carry, with the 3.6 inch barrel. So far I have fired about 200 rounds, through 4 different magazines, and 3 different bullet configurations, all flawless and great accuracy for the size of the gun.
Six 10s what brand of ammo are you running through your P-carry?
The p compact (carry?) 10mm that I looked at seemed like the small gap between the bottom of the grip and the mag base pad might pinch like how a baby Glock can pinch.
Mostly my reload's. I have shot three different bullet configurations.
round nose lead
flat nose jacketed
hollow points
The lead bullets have been the most accurate.
I was mostly interested in power levels and bullet weights. My Elite Match with a 4.75" slide eats anything. My full-size with a 4.5" slide gets finicky about 200 grain max loads.
I was curious if the issue followed the slide mass in the Witness design.
