Grand Power 10mm P40?

So are the Grand Power 10mm P40 pistols still being imported?

As far as I can tell there were two 10mm models offered for a time. One was a DA/SA model with ambi safeties for C&L-ed carry. The other was a decock model. There was a picture of a 5" 'long slide' model on their website, but that was it.

A YouTube video review I saw did a side-by-side comparison of the DA/SA model to a Sig 10mm P220. The reviewer highlighted the P40's rotating barrel as a significant design feature that mitigated felt-recoil noticeably. The 14-rd mag capacity was attractive, as was the polymer-frame for reducing over-all weight. Grip ergonomics appeared to be more CZ-ish than blocky/Glocky, but relying only on the video I could be wrong.

Here's that YT review: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=AWxVrTOUHZA

In all my travels I've never seen one at a LGS or Fun Show, even just to handle. Nor on the auction sights.

Any experiences or insights on these guns - good, bad, or otherwise?

Thanks! ${$default_cool_smiley}$

I have two Grand Power P40's currently. Love them. They are everything I wanted in a 10mm. I don't think I have shot any of my other 10mm's since I got the Grand Power. I have never seen them in a gun store, I purchased one new from an online dealer and the 2nd one on Gunbroker.

Ran into one, and handled it at my local GS last year, totally should have picked it up

The one I bought on Gunbroker was slightly used and had 3 mags with it. I made the minimum bid and won, $395 or something like that.

When I have been into Bud's Gunshop in the past they carried them.

Like everything else... out of stock!

Yep. Still keeping an eye out though.

The real problem is, I can't tell if the 10mm GP-40 model is even still being imported, or whether it's been discontinued.

Checking GB, they're showing a lot of GP guns - PCCs and some 9mm K100s - but nothing else.

One on GB right now, NIB.
