Nothing wrong with double stacks bro.

There is if they are too fat for my small short fingered hand! Glocks are too big to be comfortable, also the grip angle just seems wrong to me.
Some people think I'm paranoid because I have so many guns. With all my guns, what do I have to be paranoid about?

The Glock 10mm, 45 frame is probably one of the most unfriendly grips ever made. I'd say just about anything else is much better as far as grip thickness goes. Am I missing anything? I know deagles are a handful. Never held a hipoint and probably never will.

I don't know...I would have to disagree somewhat.

Once you get used to it, the grip really helps to dampen the 10mm recoil. That is my experience, and YMMV.

Dave84

Too fat for many hands though. I shoot it just fine but I'm not a fan of not being able to one hand manipulate all the controls without adjusting my grip.

Now if Glock ever made a 10mm that looked like this..................................

Anyone seen anywhere to order one in the USA yet?

   I called Eagle Imports the other day and gave them my number for notification. It sounded more like end of the year to me.

I spoke with Eagle this morning and this isn't going to be here this year. If you are holding out waiting (like myself), move on to your other option. This thing might never make it and I'm moving on!

That's a damn shame, I was looking forward to the Grand Power as being something different (non 1911) in the 10mm chambering... :-[
Oh well only time will tell.  I continually bug VLTOR on their FB page about the Bren Ten;

Here is my post to VLTOR about the Larry Vickers Video...
How does VLTOR feel about this video from Larry Vickers...

There first response;
QuoteVltor Hi Wade, we saw this video last week. We do agree with a lot of what Larry has to say. If anyone knows the difficulties surrounding the Bren, it would definitely be us.

My return response;
All I can say I prove him wrong! And make it the best damn Bren Ten pistols ever! Don't let this pass us by! While it may not have been perfect, as D & D made them on simpler machines and by hand, it did work! Its not like VLTOR is trying to build and sustain its organization on this pistol. With the modern CNC machinery, they could be made and sold for a profit. The true 10mm community is still waiting, so don't let it fail!

There second response;
QuoteVltor We are putting everything we got into it. One of the largest problems is that we don't want to put a pistol out there that won't be of our quality.

I continually post to push them on their FB page, I really would like to see VLTOR prove that this curse thing is bullshit! :roll:

It might be here next year if you feel like waiting. That 45-90 day bit is for sure pure BS! That's enough for me to say have fun selling them if they arrive.

New update...

Approval for the USA was completed. I was told today, expect to see them in 100 days or less.

Something does not add up here, they told you they were approved back then but now they say we wont see them till next year. That doesnt make sense, I seriously doubt an import permit could be that open ended time wise.
Sounds like they have issues they dont want to announce so they are stalling

That is my sentiment exactly, and why i qouted your earlier post. pricing was a big stretch on a virtually unknown gun and the importer or whatever he is seems short fused(canuk ) You dont win customers over by stalling and ranting about being bothered when they ask questions.

Intercooler

 I have to agree with you. Too much crap for most to bear.
