10mm Terrible Choice For Personal Defense Video

[PCFlorida]

Carry & shoot a Glock29 daily.  Even days free style odd days weak handed.  Weight 145, age 82 & lift weights 5 days a week.

Perhaps Yankee should MAN up.

LOL, too funny! Good for you.

Yankee Marshall is a bit of an acquired taste, in the same vein as Nutnfancy.  You have to get past his eccentricity before you can hear what he has to say.

That's baloney. I listened intently to everything he had to say and it was total BS. Eccentricity = guy dressing up like The Burger King saying 'I'm The King.' Talking a bunch of BS = a 1911 pistol is a big, oversized, heavy gun. A big, oversized gun is a S&W 500 or a Desert Eagle .50 AE or an LAR Grizzly .45 Winchester Magnum, not a 1911 pistol in 10mm. That's total BS. So, you see I did hear what he had to say. It's not eccentricity, it's flat out stupidity. As far as an acquired taste, in desert survival situations you can drink your own urine. But, that's a taste I'd never want to acquire a taste for.

Are these our current lightest/smallest 10's?

- Glock 29
- EAA Compact
- EAA P Carry
- Grand Power P40

I need to look up all the spec's on these.

Id say thats a good list for factory items without covering 10mm commander 1911 variants.

Another item that I can think of which is pretty easy to convert and makes a reliable small hand cannon is the mauser m2 reamed to 10mm.

I carry my 29 daily and love it. The Underwoods feed great (but DONT limp wrist it). I carry Sig V-Crowns and I've been working on my double taps. I think the guy is nuckin futz  lol

Here is one of my double tap targets.

I've never carried a 10mm as my CCW...well, maybe thats not true...I started with a Beretta 96 chambered in 10mm lite 

I carry a Glock 36, love that thing, thin, light, accurate, powerful, and reliable.. the 36 replaced a Baer 1911 (stainless stinger).

For a brief moment when I first looked hard at the 10mm, I considered trading my trusted G36 for a 29....that lasted right up until I got my hands on one...way too thick for me to carry.

I'm 6' 1" and about 210 pounds, big hands...the large grip insert on the Gen 4 G40 fits me just fine, so its not the grip size, nor is it the recoil...I carry 230 grain +P HST in the G36, and shoot it just fine. By the numbers, that gun/ammo combo recoils worse than the G29 with a full toot load.

A carry gun, to me, should be above all else...comfortable to carry...the thick guns are not, to me.

All that said...the 10mm isn't for everyone, some cannot handle the recoil, others have smaller hands and can't manage the grip size.

You know what they say about opinions...
