SD22, Welcome to the forum!  Sounds like you've been taken by the 10mm plethora just like some many here.  Handloading brings a lot to the table for the 10mm whether just plinking or specific loadings!  Hope you enjoy the forum for what it has to offer.

Best regards!  :D

Hi all as you can tell I am new here as the _ Shadow let me know about this great forum ,I have  been a fan of the 10mm auto since it's made its debut in the 80's and it was either Guns &Ammo or Shooting Times that the Colt Delta Elite that graced the cover I remember buying that issue with hard earned money from yard cleaning as a teenager .I bought that issue because of the 10mm. Ever since then it was the "Holy Grail" of auto loading calibers, and when the G20 came out , well that was it .I had to have I would walk from my grandmother's house to a pawnshop weekly just to look at it and dream about it , so finally last February (2013) during  fear of the current administration in political power and the fear of hi capacity magazines and firearms being restricted again  I ordered my new 3rd gen G20 sf and waited until junk for it to come in, I don't regret 8th one bit I carry it daily and find I can shoot it more accurately than my 3rd gen G 17 and 4 th gen 19 I have since added a UTAC green laser flashlight combo (TLR -2 knockoff) so that about does it for me I am glad to be here and learn a much as possible.

I've been lurking on this site for a while, even though I have had a Gen3 G20Sf since August 2013. I bought a Gen4 G29 (nonSF) about a month ago for EDC use. the 20sf is pretty stock except ext slide release lever, 3.5 connector, and some NS. the 29 is stock except for NS.

I've been a fan of the 10mm for a long time, at least 20 years. I dont really know for sure what started it. I just know I am addicted to it. I suppose my next 10mm will be a STI perfect 10, but that seems a few years off.

Hello my name is Kenny and I live in Texas, and I've been hunting and fishing all my life.

Love the 1911 and AR platforms, decided to buy a 10mm since I like the .40 +P loads, but still wanted more out of a semi-auto.

Anyway, went to a gun range trying out different models in 10mm and settled on a Glock 20, G4 with night sights. I also placed a order for a KKM barrel and decided to start reloading (trying to get the most out of it).

Glad to be here and hope to learn a lot from other members.

Kenny, Welcome to the forum!  I hope your G-20 4th gen gives you good service, many are seeing some issues with FTF, rounds in mag slide locked back.  Handloading does allow some flexibility with various bullets and potential power.  :D

Best regards!
